What customers say
This small, friendly campground has spotless facilities & a well-kept heated pool. Shady, neat pitches. Staff are praised for being helpful & welcoming. Expect quiet days, some evening entertainment (noise until 10 pm noted). Nearby bakery/supermarket. La Rochelle close by. Some found Wi-Fi weak, pool small/lacked shade, or experienced external noise. A few pitches had ground issues after rain.

From the manager: Bonjour
Merci pour ce retour.
Vous êtes venus dans notre camping le 13 juillet. Sachez qu'en France, cette date est une fête nationale donc la commune a célébré cet évènement comme beaucoup de villages et villes en France. Dommage que vous ne connaissiez pas la culture française, cela vous aurez permis de comprendre pourquoi il y avait de la musique à côté du camping.
Bonne continuation à vous.

Clean site and shady pitches.
Powered grass campsite
Liked The site is small and friendly. The owners are such a pleasure, always available and made everyone feel welcome. The shared facilities are kept very clean throughout the day and topped up with soap & toilet paper.
The pool was a highlight: heated and clean. There are several recliners and parasols. We often had the pool to ourselves or with one or two others if we timed it right.
The grass pitch was shady and the trees maintained well to avoid overhang causing tent damage. We pitched very close to the facilities which was convenient. There is evening entertainment, but as it’s a small site it doesn’t get rowdy - but just worth noting there is a little noise up to 10pm if you are seeking a 24/7 peaceful retreat. During the day the site is very quiet, I finished many novels!
There is a bakery (and small supermarket) a short walk away, perfect for pastries for breakfast and fresh bread. Larger supermarkets are a short drive and La Rochelle is an easy 30-40 minute drive. There are some beautiful parks and villages to visit closer to the site, the location is ideal for unwinding.
We would definitely recommend this site.

Excellent little site
Powered grass campsite
Liked This is a very well run site with immaculate toilets and showers and a lovely clean municipal pool. Although a fairly small site they had regular entertainment such as bingo and karaoke. They have a bar, serving food in the evenings and a snack bar open at lunchtimes. The staff were lovely and very helpful. The pitches were nice and shady. The site is walking distance to the village with convenience store and bakery. It's a great place to stay for a peaceful holiday

Small site with good facilities and nice play areas for children
Powered grass campsite
Liked Nice big pitch, convenient pool with no extra charge, friendly campers and team. Great library of books and games. Loo roll, loo seats and soap - rare on a French campsite!
Disliked Our pitch wasn’t grassy, though it was a very hot time and I’m sure others had been on and off wearing the grass down
