Patrick & Johanna M.

Powered grass site

Liked As the description says, it felt like camping in a forest. The pitch we got given was spacious and private with hedges around it. Perhaps a bit annoying that we had to access the neighbour's pitch to hook up our electricity but not a problem. Easy access to the lake although it would have been handy with a second gate for a short cut.

Disliked No wifi reception due to location

Unpowered grass site

Liked Big pitches, great location right by a beach on the lake. Lots of activities, games. Plenty to do in nature. Freezer on site much appreciated.

Disliked Showers, toilets, wash up could have been cleaner. Playground a bit unloved and in need of modernisation.

Local attractions

Tour the teeny-tiny old towns and villages in this rural area, beginning with the closest – Sillé-le-Guillaume, five minutes’ drive – for the massive medieval château, then roam the ramparts of another old castle at Fresnay-sur-Sarthe (20 minutes), stopping by the Headdress Museum to poke around the curious collection on display here. The village of Saint-Céneri-le-Gérei (30 minutes) is known for a fresco-filled 11th-century church set above a river; if you’re more taken by towns, amble around Alençon’s UNESCO-registered centre with a fine art museum exploring the history of its lace-making heritage. To please the nippers, Zoo de La Flèche has 1,200 animals including rarities like white tigers, polar bears and red pandas. The habitats here are designed to mimic the natural environments of the creatures – look out for landscapes ranging from the Argentinian pampas to the Australian bush. Guaranteed to up the pace, Le Mans (50 minutes) is a gem in the region, especially if you’re keen on racing. Delve into the history of the city's renowned 24 Hours of Le Mans motor race at the 24 Hours of Le Mans Museum, and have a go on the simulator rides and go-karts at the racetrack.
