Absolutely dreadful. Dirty and some facilities not open even though it was high season. Overgrown with weeds, including side access roads. Visited six years ago and was clean and well kept. Shocking difference

Great site, next to the sea within walking distance of the Isle Madame via a causeway at low water. This spacious site is well laid out with a mixture of shady and sunny pitches mostly good sized and level with low hedges giving reasonable privacy. There's a good sized heated swimming pool on site and snack bar. There's also a playground for kids and bouncy castle when we visited. The sanitaires aren't the most modern you'll find, but perfectly adequate and cleaned thoroughly each day. A bread van visits the site each morning about 9am. Staff are helpful and friendly. This is a great coastal location, not much around in terms of shops and restaurants but perfect if you want a relaxing stay in a pleasant location. A horse drawn charabang will take you to Isle Madam if walking isn't your thing. Recommended.

Inspected annually

"This ecological campsite is located on the edge of the sea opposite the island ' Ile Madame '. In the surroundings are a range of water sports, also interesting for fishermen. The campsite has a heated swimming pool."
