A Rare Gem

Griffiths, Nigel And Ann B - 21/10/2026

We have stayed at the site a number of times after first discovering it in the summer of 2026, on our way back to the UK. The owners, James and Jayne, are really lovely and work really hard to ensure high standards are maintained. The site is quiet and nicely laid out with a lovely swimming pool and bar/restaurant which is excellent but not too large. We can see why regulars continue to return again and again.

Well run site

Obviously we stayed at the end of the season so very quiet. My husband used the pool which was nice but very cold. Nice bar and eating area & we had a red Thai curry which was nice. We strolled over to the bar in the evening and it was nice & cosy and friendly. James & Jayne were very helpful & friendly. Felt very safe & secure as has coded electric gate. It sounds like there's plenty going on high season like regular BBQs & quiz nights. Showers and toilets clean but only grumble was that they could do with a bit of an upgrade. We had a nice three night stay there & would definitely use again if we are down that way.

Charming site with excellent facilities and great hosts

Taylor, Philip - 29/09/2026

I was very impressed with the set-up at Camping de Courte Vallee and spent a very comfortable night here. The site has everything you need for your stay and it is all very well-maintained and kept to a high standard of cleanliness.I also dined in their restaurant and the food was very impressive; I thoroughly enjoyed my choice from a nice selection of options on the menu.I had time to explore the area and this is a real gem of a location. On the fringe of the town called Airvault which is an impressive place with some stunning sights. The site is a short walk to the river and a really pleasant open park. I am delighted I found this site.Finally, my gratitude to the proprietors who made me very welcome, were excellent hosts and very friendly throughout.

Autumn holiday

Feather & Suttcliffe, Ann & Roger (gm) - 24/09/2026

5

A very pleasant site, English owned and well maintained by the owners James and James, who work very hard and long hours to ensure visitors have an holiday which they will cherish with memories to last a lifetime. Entertainment is excellent and ranges from quiz evenings with bbq. Jayne runs a very popular bistro with a wide choice of menus. There is also live entertainment by way of groups playing popular music. By en large, there is little to complain about and as such I will criticise in any way as any problems that do occur are quickly dealt with and resolved.
