Nice site, close to town Great WiFi Very clean
Nous avons passé un agréable moment au camping. C’était calme et reposant. Pour les plus téméraires l’eau-de la piscine est à 22, mais nous nous sommes baigné tout de même.
We stayed on a cycling trip for one night in tents. With a few changes the site could be really nice. First off both the swimming pool and more importantly the showers were cold. Secondly some provision for those following La VeloFrancette such as a small shed with kettle microwave etc would make things really good. This is common practice on other sites along the route. The emphasis on this site seems to be catering for mainly British Senior caravanners. I guess its horses for courses.
The temperature of the swimming pool was 26 degrees when you stayed. What makes it seem cooler is the delta between the pool temperature and the ambient temperature. The showers are thermostatically controlled in each cubicle, all you have to do is turn it accordingly. If you felt there was no hot water you should have come and told us.We have never been asked for such facilities by people cycling the velo francette. There are microwave and kettles available, again all you had to do was ask. In our experience everybody we have seen following the velo francette has been adequately equipped. We store circa 120 caravans on site which is available to any demographic who wish to store or stay here.
Camping très calme à part l'âne qui faisait trop de bruit sinon séjour très bien ainsi que les campeurs britanniques.
This site is a real find. A beautiful area within easy reach of all the ferry ports. The site is very quiet, except for the wonderful birdsong, the pitches are large, the trees, shrubs and plants are well cared for and make the site attractive to both guests and wildlife. In addition to this the river Thouet, with stunning walks, is literally on the doorstep. It’s an extremely relaxing site and we look forward to visiting again soon. Derek and Denise Woodhouse
An excellent campsite owned by a lovely English couple. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly surrounded by beautiful vegetation and birdsong. The campsite is in an ideal location either as a stopover or an opportunity to visit the many interesting sites within a short distance including Airvault.Adair and Joan
All of the above
James and Jayne are always there to help or offer advice. Just a great peaceful site to stay.
James and Jayne (the owners) work extremely hard in running the site and put in long hours daily for the benefit of their customers. The site itself is clean with spacious pitches, electricity at 10amps is very useful and can cope with modern domestic appliances.the bar and bistro are good, particularly Jayne’s fish and chips on thursday evenings, also the provision of a communal bbq and get together on Friday evening. There is plenty to see and do in the local area and as such the site is useful for longer stays and not just nightly stopovers which are accommodated.
Although the campsite had suffered from a very dry summer when we arrived the ground was starting to green up nicely. Very pleasant stay, relaxing and peaceful.
