Honestly, this site was exceptional.
The staff were friendly and helpful. They kept the pool open late as it was such a hot day.
Our pitch was well shaded under the trees.
The toilets were clean and the showers were hot.
But best of all, we were able to enjoy the drink and snack bars as they were open late.
We ate and drank on loungers overlooking the lake and enjoyed the chilled dance music.
We had a fantastic evening.

This is a quiet, basic wooded site.
It has just the essentials, but that does include a toilet, shower and electric hookups.
It was great for a night and was very peaceful. We enjoyed our night here.
The owners were helpful and were quick to respond to any questions that we had.
Disliked A charge for the shower seemed a bit unnecessary.

This is a very large and very busy site.
The pitches are well shaded.
The staff were very helpful, especially with the electric hookup which was a long way from our pitch.
The location is excellent for the waterpark just across the road and the town is a 15 minute walk.
Disliked Very loud music and children running wild around the site late at night.
We didn't have a restful stay.

Disliked Someone decided to start up a very noisy leaf blower early in the morning which disturbed everyone.

Let's be honest. This is a very basic site and if you appreciate that then you won't have any issues.
The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. We had a great wine tasting session in the Château and took the opportunity to buy a few bottles of their lovely wine.
Disliked There are no showers.
We also paid for electric hookups, but none was available.

The site is shaded by trees and the toilets are clean.
The swimming pool was good and there is a large supermarket a short walk away.
It is also convenient for visiting Nantes and there is a nice lake nearby.
Disliked I don't like this site. It is noisy and dusty and cramped. We were put on a pitch which was too far from the electric hookup and the extension line we borrowed from the reception actually didn't fit the hookup.
When we arrived I realised that we had stayed here a few years before and pretty much the same thing happened previously. I hadn't recognised the location otherwise I would not have bothered.
We didn't feel comfortable or relaxed during our stay, but it is adequate for a short stay.
I am sure that other people will enjoy their visit, but out of all the sites we stayed on this was just about our least favourite.

Quite honestly, the only reason this site doesn't get a 10 is because they have no pool.
The staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. The site is small and peaceful. The food was fabulous.
We would definitely stay here again.

Péronne, Somme, France
Powered grass and earth site
Liked It was cheap.
Disliked I really don't recommend this site. It was cramped and there were no numbered pitches. Although it had been raining we had to stop on a muddy pitch that wasn't level. Toilets were basic and didn't smell good. Next morning we were woken early by loud people fishing. Some of the photos look like they were too taken somewhere else.
