Camping Les Cluds

A aimé : The site was perfectly situated and peaceful. Extremely helpful and friendly staff.
A great place to stay for cycling, and hiking. Really well positioned, with some amazing walks from the site.
The little one loved the playgrounds on site, and at the adjacent restaurant (which was great for a lunch break and a drink).

We also drove round the mountain to the toboggan/ski lift and pump track, which we all loved.

As with any mountain area, I'd recommend stocking up if you intend to cook for yourself as the nearest supermarket in Saint-Croix is very expensive and limited. That said, the site and restaurant offer some basic essentials if you're short.

All the facilities were clean and well maintained. We used the washing machine and dryer as well, which I was able to pay for on card.

And good coverage of free WiFi all over the site.

N'a pas aimé: The 4.5 minute shower tokens seem a little tight! Would be nice to have some tokens thrown in with a long stay booked?

A aimé : The pitches were a good size and well kept. Quiet and lovely location. On arrival the welcome was great. Restaurant and cafe bar next door were a great addition.

N'a pas aimé: The car was not allowed on the pitch but parked quite close by and in a safe place. Trolleys were available to transport camping equipment and luggage which worked well. Price for electric and dog charged each night and for hot water either for a shower or to use a sink to have a wash was a bit steep.

A aimé : A very peaceful campsite. Almost too peaceful and I constantly worried my children were too loud for it! It was lovely though. Very quiet (apart from something mentioned in the disliked section...).
Very rural, high up in the mountains, yet close enough to lots of things to do. We were only there for 2 full days but we went down to Lake Neuchatel and the children swam in the lake. We went to a town down there and looked around some shops and got some lunch. We went swimming at a pool near to the campsite on both afternoons. It was the most stunningly located pool I've ever been to, situated on the side of the mountain. The children loved it, with its waterchute and diving boards and small cafe where they got ice creams. We also drove up the mountain behind the campsite and back down the other side to the tobogganing place. I'd like to go back for longer because there was so much to do that we just didn't have time for.
We ate at the restaurant on the campsite one night but other than that and the lunch we had in the town by the lake, we prepared all our other meals in the kitchen on the campsite. I really appreciated this facility. The was a gas hob, microwave, kettle, coffee machine and fridge freezer and all cooking utensils and pans were provided. There was also a shelf of provisions if you needed anything and an honesty box. There were two large tables to eat at. The games area was also in the same room, with toys, games and books at the other end. The washing machine room was through a door at the end.
Toilet and shower blocks were clean.
There was a small play area near the camping area and a larger one next to the restaurant.

N'a pas aimé: We had to sit in the car to charge our phones. There's a machine near reception for charging phones but you had to pay. With mine and both children's phones it would have cost a fortune to charge them all every day we were there. They don't want you using the normal sockets anywhere to charge phones but the sockets were such a shape that UK>EU plug adapters didn't fit in them anyway.
The only other thing I disliked isn't really the fault of the campsite... But one of the nights we were there, there was gun fire for several hours throughout the night. It was in the forest up the hill behind our tent and my children were terrified. I had to google (using the last 18% of battery life on my phone because I couldn't charge it properly!) to find out why. I don't know whether this is true but I told my children this anyway, just to put their minds at rest so that they might go back to sleep, but apparently Swiss men do target practice at random times because of the National Service. Why they have to do it all night next to a campsite though, I don't know. I put earplugs in and it muffled the sound enough for me to get back to sleep eventually but we were all very tired the next day.
Oh and one other thing I've just remembered about... the pitch was very rocky (understandable up a mountain though) and I bent half my tent pegs trying to get them in. Some of them wouldn't go in at all. Fortunately it wasn't too windy so the tent didn't blow away.
