Liked: The location by lake/lagoon. Pretty old chateau. Reasonable pool.
Disliked: Appalling state of shared loo block facilities. The site had failed to get enough toilet paper for the paper distribution pods in each loo, so had to replace with loose toilet rolls which ignorant and selfish campers then stole (presumably so that at least THEY could wipe their bottoms, never mind everyone else) leaving everyone else helpless and having to improvise.
Also, the plumbing was in need of attention. One loo kept over-running (wasting precious water in time of scarcity). No maintenance taking place, presumably because you can't get the staff? The site seemed to be run by teenagers who didn't have a clue what to do.
Evening entertainment was very loud (karaoke) which went on until 11.30pm or later most evenings.
The shop was very poorly stocked with fresh items such as milk. I understand items had been ordered but just didn't arrive.
Overall impression very disappointing, given that it was recommended by friends.

Liked: Cadre agréable, calme, mais une fois le paiement effectué, aucun suivis pour les problèmes.
Disliked: Fuyez ce site intermédiaire Pitchup pour réserver, prix plus élevé que le site internet du camping Gibanel, absence totale de réponse à mes mails, injoignable au tel. Information sur les conditions d acceptation animaux pas du tout clair, sauf pour la confirmation de réservation quand on a payé. J attends toujours un remboursement pour le paiement de mon chien effectué pour qui j ai dû trouver une solution d urgence de garde car >20 kg et ai demandé le remboursement de la différence de prix
entre Pitchup et Gibanel , camping prévenue, devait contacter pitchup, aucun retour.

Liked: Fantastic setting. Good pool and right by lake.
Disliked: Check in a little confused , tree canopy not suitable for motorhome needs trimming. Toilet block ok but needs a deep clean and better housekeeping.
Restaurant a real disappointment, such a lovely setting and such awful cold food with hapless staff , no idea of food service.

Liked: The view and position of pitch
Disliked: The long uncut grass everywhere! The blocked toilets! Which were ongoing! Sadly a run down site! Which sadly is such a shame . It could be wonderful , with some tender loving care. Staff in hiding I think!
