What customers say
This well-kept, friendly campground has excellent, spotless facilities. Guests love the convenient location, a short walk from Surgeres' shops/restaurants and a train station to La Rochelle. Pity about mosquitos & out-of-season pool closures. Most found it peaceful, though some heard nearby events. Staff are very welcoming.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer, tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Great location for exploring the local town of Surgeres on foot. A warm welcome to the site, with hedged pitches for tents and campervans. Mixed shower block was clean and in good order. Great little pool and surrounding lounge area. Supermarket and boulongerie just a couple of minutes walk away.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer, tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Hedged or semi hedged large pitches. Clean unisex showers and toilets. Very friendly staff. Quiet site late September. Great location for a short walk into Surgeres, which has lots of shops/bars/restaurants. A petrol station, supermarket and bakery at the end of the road. A park behind, which we found great for running and we loved the cycling in the area. We went at the end of the season, so the pool was closed. Half hour walk to the railway station where we got a train to La Rochelle. Would recommend this site.

Perfect 👍
Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer, tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Lovely site!
Warm and friendly welcome, choice of pitches in shade and sun.
Our electric cable wouldn't reach the plug in as it was on the next pitch but they couldn't have been more helpful giving us and extension lead to use.
Apart from the fair in the sports ground nearby (which didn't bother us), it was lovely and peaceful.
The showers and toilets were the best we have had so far on our trip. They were spotless!
The cafe/bar and pool weren't open when we visited mid September.
Really good WiFi signal which was a bonus too.
It's in a perfect location with a 5 minute walk to a small supermarket and an amazing boulangerie.
Another 5 minute walk and you are in the town with lovely bars and restaurants.
20 minute walk from the site is the station where we got a train into La Rochelle very easily.
Best campsite we have stayed in so far on our trip!
Disliked Absolutely nothing!

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer, tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Close to Surgeres castle park; quite small and not overcrowded. Toilets and showers were clean.
Disliked Quite noisy at night with traffic noise and it was less of a peaceful rural retreat than we had expected - defininitely not a wildlife haven. Swimming pool was closed due to rainy weather. Showers could have been better - temperature was variable and had to keep pressing the button every 30 seconds or they go off and not much space to put dry clothes and change.

Liked Muziek in de douche en toiletten. Plek had veel privacy

From the manager: Bonjour
Je trouve votre avis vraiment sévère! Mettre un 3 parce que notre camping est trop propre, c'est un peu fort!
Quant à nos soirées, elles finissent à 22h30! Il n'y a eu qu'une seule soirée avec de la musique pendant votre séjour.... Vous exagérez quand même un peu!!!
Si vous vouliez séjournez au beau milieu des champs, c'est sûr vous n'êtes pas tombés au bon endroit!
Bonne continuation
