Weltjens, Sunday 09 August 2009

Travelling party: Family with children under the age of 4
Travel period: July 2009
De standplaatsen zijn ruim en afgescheiden door haagjes. Het sanitair is redelijk schoon maar niets speciaals. Spijtig dat er bijna geen douche/bad-faciliteiten voor kleine kinderen zijn. In de familiedouche zijn er amper kapstokken om iedereen zijn kleding en handdoeken op te hangen. De speeltuin stelt niet veel voor behalve een springkasteel. Op de trampolines zaten altijd grotere kinderen. Het zwembadwater was véél te koud, vooral het peuterbad. Broodservice is ok en personeel is zeer vriendelijk. Geen autoverkeer tussen 22u en 8u is ook prima, en stilte verplicht vanaf 22u, daardoor is het een zeer rustige camping. Als het regent verandert de camping helaas in een grote modderpoel.

Excellent site, friendly staff with lots to keep children happy. Right in the heart of chateau country with easy access to Blois and Amboise. Entertainment nearly every night in high season. Very clean toilet and washing facilities. Pitches on sand/grass and flint so free draining.

Camping itself is ok, but service and customer service is bad. During our stay we had cold (and dark) showers and no electricity. When confronted with this the reception personal ignored the problem and even became extremely unfriendly when we asked for a reimbursement of part of our fee. Cold showers and lack of electricity can of course happen due to bad luck, but not taking responsability for it and even blaming it on the customer himself is really bad practice. Not what I expect from a **** camping. We had ** campings much nicer and way cheaper than this one.
