The friendly family campsite L’Arada Parc is situated on a low hill near the town of Sonzay in the Loire Valley. The grounds with many flowery shrubs look well maintained.

Relaxed camping

On the slightly hilly terrain the camping pitches are closer to the amenities than the rental accommodation units. The terrain is laid out with numerous trees and bushes and has a varied appearance. The pitches differ in size and comfort but are all spacious. The luxury pitches have electricity and water supply plus drainage. A number of pitches is dedicated to campers. Rental accommodation consists of furnished tents, mobile homes and chalets.

Wellness in old mobile home

The owner has converted an old mobile home into a relaxation and wellness area with a Turkish bath, balnéo, an infrared sauna and some fitness equipment including two bicycles. There is a heated indoor pool, with toddler pool, and outdoor pool with nice slide and jacuzzi.

Campsite owner and chef

The owner is also the chef and the restaurant offers a small menu with pizzas, meat dishes and the Arada menu. The terrace of the restaurant, with a view of the swimming pool, is a lovely place to relax in the sun or the shade. You can buy various groceries and beverages in the reception area. There is adequate choice for a reasonable price.

Not to be missed

From the campsite you can take a large number of walking and cycling trips in the area and you can rent bicycles from the reception. Wine tasting options are also offered on the various vineyards. You can also visit one of the many castles on the Loire or the regional nature park with wildlife.

€17 per night during lowseason
Campsite accepts ACSI Club ID

Liked - De VIP plekken bieden veel ruimte en hebben een gezellige locatie vlakbij het zwembad. De kinderen hebben genoten van de zwemfaciliteiten en de animatie is heel leuk
Disliked - Het sanitair was matig schoon. Dit had beter gekunt. Ook stonden alle auto's op de camping. Hierdoor lijkt het soms een grote parkeerplaats en wordt de doorgang bemoeilijkt.

Wij baseren onze zoektocht naar campings via de ACSI vaak op hun aantal sterren! Deze camping is echt geen viersterren camping! Achterstallig onderhoud op de gehele camping: hoog gras en onkruid op de percelen. Geen wellness, geen restaurant buiten het hoogseizoen. Wel afhaalmaaltijden: pizza’s en pasta’s. Op de camping veel huisjes verhuurd aan buitenlandse werknemers: Polen, Roemenen en Bulgaren, die ‘s avonds terugkwamen van hun werk en met hoge snelheid in hun auto’s hun kampement opzochten. Het enige voordeel was dat zij ‘s morgens vroeg al weer weggingen, zodat wij ook op tijd deze camping konden verlaten.
Daarnaast deed de organisatie van de camping er alles aan om ons verblijf zo rumoerig mogelijk te maken; in de paar uur dat wij er stonden, reed met daverende snelheid een golfkarretje rond met daarin vier jongelui die met keiharde achtergrondmuziek via een nog hardere microfoon gewag maakte van een aankomende festiviteit op de camping in een onduidelijke snelle Franse zinsbouw en af en toe doorspekt met Engelse woorden.
Waren er ook voordelen? Jazeker: het warme water in de douche en bij de afwas was ook werkelijk warm. Het water in het zwembad was ook heerlijk warm. Zou ik hier nog een keer terug komen? In deze hoedanigheid zeker niet! Maximaal één ster!
