Amiable holiday atmosphere
The owner, Mrs Sarrato, is a walking encyclopedia of tourist information about sights and activities in the area. There are 86 pitches on her camping site. These are divided in touring pitches, sites for mobile homes, gîtes and paved pitches for motorhomes.
Colours on the camping site
The pitches are located along dirt roads between colourful plants. The camping site radiates a remarkable calmness. The grounds are clearly well-tended while maintaining their natural vegetation. It is nice to see that trees determine the size of the pitches while demarcating them at the same time.
The camping site lies on the Santiago de Compostella pilgrimage route. This explains the mobile homes and gîtes, which provide accommodation to pilgrims. Although the camping site exudes tranquillity, it is also a perfect base for attending the races on the Nogaro racing circuit, located at some 20 km from the camping site.
Swimming and fishing
The swimming pool and the separate toddler pool are both designed in a kind of drop shape. Next to the pool there are a few loungers on which to soak up the sun or to enjoy the shade. The camping site borders on a lake which suitable for angling, but not really for swimming! Adjacent to the swimming pool is a shop with a limited assortment.
