BEWARE - this site is NOT OPEN as an all year site. Staff were unhelpful and unfriendly. We arrived in motorhome on March 15 2012 and were told that they were not open, unless you were a resident?!
The site looked messy and unready for the upcoming season.
Advice must be check before you travel - dont take the guide entries for definite!
We use the Camping Card/ACSI guide extensively and this was the only time it has let us down because the site now operated to a different set of rules.

Have spent the last 3 years visiting this gem of a site! The site has grown over the last year and some of the facilities have become stretched. The owners were amazing and promised us the same pitch to return again this Summer. However the site has been taken over and although we have paid our deposit we have just been told we can no longer have the pitch we booked. We are very disappointed as we were travelling with family. We have heard it has happened to others. We hope the site doesn't change from such a great holiday.
Very disappointed travellers.

There from 26th August to 4th September.Very nice & relaxing location. Staff very helpful. Most pitches of a decent size. Location in easy reach of many attractions in the region. 1 hour from Pou de Foy, well worth a visit, great day out. Avrille village just a short distance away from site.

We hebben er een fijne vakantie gehad.
Receptie was franstalig, hadden veel moeite met Engels, waren wel heel vriendelijk.

Excellent welcome at reception, the pitches were huge and all had electric and water. The shower blocks were new and immaculate and checked regularly. The swimming pool was had a brand new indoor section which was incredible. The staff and the owners were so friendly and helpful and always available. The area is not that interesting but nevertheless we had a great stay and would revisit.
