Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans un studio . Le personnel est vraiment très sympa toujours prêt à vous renseigner et nous avons beaucoup apprécié le village ainsi que la station. A refaire au même endroit si on en a la possibilité.

We loved it at Campsite L'Escale! It is situated in amazing surroundings, we just walked around looking up at the views the whole time. Unfortunately we didn't stay long enough to try the restaurant. We walked into town which is just a couple of minutes away, the town is also amazing! The staff at the campsite were friendly and spoke very good english, we had the wrong cable for their electric and even though the reception was just closing they went out of their way to find us a converter for our electric.The journey up the mountain to the campsite was breath taking, if not a little scary! But I cannot fault the campsite at all. We would recomend this campsite to everyone!

We hadden natuurlijk pech dat vlak na onze aankomst het meer dat 30 uur achter elkaar regende, hoger gelegen gebieden zelfs sneeuwde! We zijn dan ook maar een dag langer gebleven. Rijden met harde regen in de bergen is niets voor ons. Wel mooi dat er een goede WIFI verbinding was en .... gratis!

Pool complex very nice for the children. Pitches were a bit small. However, staff less than friendly, very inflexible over arrival and departure times and we noticed them driving around checking that people were packing up before their departure time - just took the shine off a nice stay.
