Disliked: Wat een puinhoop bij de entree, overal vuil en rondslingerende spullen. Vieze douches en toiletten maakten dat we heel gauw weg zijn gegaan. Helaas hadden we al betaald voor twee nachten….

Powered grass and earth travel trailer campsite

Liked: Location

Disliked: Gates were locked before 10.30pm, we were refused re entry and told to sleep on the road outside!! Our camping spot already had all our belongings on it. We had to beg to be allowed entry. Bins were over flowing and smelt bad Bathrooms were dirty, over flowing drains from the shower. Swimming pool area was very run down. General up keep of the site was poor and communication wasn’t clear about gate closure We wouldnt go back which is a pitty as the location was beautiful

Liked: Not a lot.

Disliked: Pretty chaotic setup. Fairly obsolete toilets and (cold) shower block. Got let down and this was a last minute stay. Made a surcharge of €15 for my twin axle caravan. Bandit.

Local attractions

A good place to start nearby is at the House of the Bay of the Marais Poitevin (10 minutes’ walk) for an insight into the area’s history and its role in the development of commercial mussel cultivation. More history is on display at Fort Boyard, commissioned by Louis XIV in the17th century. The offshore fortress can be visited on a boat trip from Rochefort (45 minutes’ drive). Elsewhere along the coast, you may like to play a round of golf with a sea view on the 18-hole course at Golf la Rochelle La Prée (10 minutes) or spend a day in La Rochelle (20 minutes), visiting the aquarium and maritime museum or tackling the treetop trails of Vertigo Parc La Rochelle Aventure. Alternatively, cross the bridges to explore Île de Ré (20 minutes) or Oléron (an hour). Turning your attention inland is a good idea too, because the lush green landscapes of the Marais Poitevin Regional Natural Park are rather gorgeous. This area, often known as ‘Green Venice' because of its network of waterways, is a wildlife haven alive with birds, butterflies and dragonflies. There are walking and bike trails through the park, or you can join boat tours in Arçais (45 minutes).
