Erg mooie camping maar het zwembad was wel aan de koude kant, ook was er nog geen entertainment
Heel hartelijk dank voor uw bezoek aan onze camping!
In het voorseizoen is er entertainment in de weekenden. Het volledige entertainment programma is aanwezig in juli en augustus.
Het zwembad wordt verwarmd tot 25°, wij zullen aan de technische dienst door geven dat dit toch wel koud gevonden wordt.

Standaardplekken voor CC-houders krap bemeten.
Erg veel vliegen en muggen bij plekken aan de waterkant.
Goede camping voor een bezoek aan Sisteron
Heel hartelijk dank voor uw verblijf op onze camping!
De plaatsen die gekozen kunnen worden door CC-houders zijn de comfort plaatsen van minimum 100m² of 130m².
Wij hebben inderdaad periodes gehad in 2018 dat er best veel vliegen en muggen waren, en ook periodes dat wij helemaal geen last hadden van deze beestjes. Wij doen er alles aan om ze te bestrijden.
Sisteron is inderdaad een hele mooie plaats om te bezoeken, met de citadel, de oude stad en de kleine straten.

Mooie camping, goede wifi, prachtige plaats aan de rivier. Prima als je met hond komt. Fietsen is lastig als je niet elektrisch rijdt. Houd rekening met muggen zeker bij het water, camping investeert veel geld aan apparatuur om muggen te weren maar dit lukt niet altijd.
Wij danken u voor uw verblijf op de camping!
Ook heel hartelijk dank voor alle complimenten. Fietsen is inderdaad elektrisch makkelijker, maar u treft hier ook heel veel mountainbike routes aan in de omgeving voor de liefhebbers.
Wij doen inderdaad erg ons best om de muggen te weren, maar elk jaar zijn er toch nog wel periodes dat deze aanwezig zijn. Wij gaan hier mee verder!

Not pre booked and reasonably easy to find just south of Sisteron.
Very friendly welcome to what was a potentially busy site that was cramped in some areas, whilst more open in others. Most pitches were separated by hedges but the planting regimes of some trees will create difficulties when accessing some pitches.
The lakeside camp has an excellent 3 pool complex plus waterslide. It offers a shop, restaurant, bar and entertainment high season. It must be said that during our visit (May so early season), it was very quiet and the weather dull so it was hard to get a more balanced view of what it might be like later in the summer, we could imagine that it might get a bit tight during high season.
Showers and WC’s very good.
Close by Sisteron is well worth a visit.
Thank you very much for your stay in our campsite and your appreciation! We also thank you for your tip to visit Sisteron, which really is a very nice small town with a citadel.

the first site out of season to have a fully functioning restaurant and take away service.
Could not fault the staff or the site. Sanitary facilities the best we encountered on our month long trip. Showers hot and powerful. What more can you ask for?
Many thanks for your stay on the campsite and your very nice appreciation! In 2019 the restaurant will be open during the whole period again! Maybe we will see you another time again!

Het was al erg rustig begin september. Bijzonder grote plaatsen gescheiden door hoge hagen. Sanitair was schoon en alles werkte zonder problemen. Wifi tegen betaling, maar desondanks regelmatig zeer trage verbinding.

Mooie camping. Zwembad iets te klein in verhouding met aantal gasten op de camping. Eerste indruk van de plek was niet goed. Stonden twee olijfbomen, zodat we onze auto niet op de plek kwijt konden. Auto op parkeerplaats gezet. Vervolgens elke dag onder de bomen gezeten. Geweldig dus! Sanitair prima. Wel eens vies, maar dat is de schuld van de gebruiker. Sanitair werd twee keer per dag schoongemaakt.

Prachtige camping - parkachtig. Ondanks dat de camping begin juli behoorlijk vol liep: na 23.00 was alles rustig. schone wc + douche - prachtig zwembad en ook een omgeving waar je alle kanten op kon. Supermarkten (Lydl en intermarché) op korte afstand. Wi-Fi van 11-12 uur en van 15-16 uur bij het restaurant. Anders moest er voor betaald worden. In het voorseizoen korting met ACSI en als je voor een langere periode staat ook nog de campingkorting voor lang verblijf erbij!!

Friendly welcome. Large site with plenty of pitches to choose from. Access roads a little tight for long caravans (our two were 7.2 and 8 metres) when negotiating corners. An enjoyable stay.

Heel mooie rustige camping. Beetje zoeken naar zonnige plaats voor onze camper. Prachtige zwembaden - zeer verzorgd, perfect onderhouden en up-to-date sanitair. Kunnen ons voorstellen dat het hier in de zomer vrij druk is. We hopen hier nog te kunnen terugkomen.
