Electric optional grass pitch
Liked: Nada en especial. Quizás los croassants que puedes encargar para recoger a primera hora, pero tampoco son una maravilla. Es un camping tranquilo.
Disliked: El camping está dejado. Es imposible ducharse. Solo hay tres duchas disponibles y la presión del agua y la falta de alcachofa de ducha hacen imposible tomar una ducha sin que te duela la espalda. Las parcelas tienen hoyos y poca vegetación. La piscina es minúscula, solo para niños.

From the manager: Many thanks for your review. We are sorry that you didn't enjoy your overnight stay. We have put a lot of care attention and money into renovating the campsite over the last 8 years so it is certainly not neglected. We have 5 high pressure showers with very large rainheads and unlimited hot water. We are often told that they are the best showers people have come across when camping in France. The swimming pool is 14m x 7m whch is usually fine for our small site. Finally the pitches are grassy and each pitch is edged by hedges and trees. Are you sure you reviewed the right campsite???
Beautiful and peaceful.…

Liked: Fantastic site which does all the detail well. Stayed twice as long as we planned to! Outstanding in the provision for older kids. Owners relaxed but attentive. Best campsite showers ever, clean toilets, food and drink offerings perfect. Swimming pool is great . Loved how the sports and games are nearly all free, and balls and equipment provided. It’s extremely good value for money and lots of extras are included free (Wi-Fi, water cooler, etc) Huge tent pitch with lots of shade. Sociable bar area but site was quiet after 11ish.
Disliked: We struggled a little with finding things to do in the area . Also the road noise was annoying when the site is so peaceful.

Liked: Rural site in middle of France run by very friendly English couple. Accommodation all no frills but spotlessly clean and did the job perfectly
Disliked: Night life was very noisy for young children trying to sleep
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Many thanks for your review. Usually the campsite is very quiet but in high season when the site is full, it can be a little noisy at times around the bar area.
Brilliant for all family types or as a couple.
