Liked - Wij sliepen in de tent die je kan huren. Die is echt prima. Het meer is lekker en schoon. Op loopafstand en lekker kastelen bouwen. Vriendjes zijn snel gemaakt en het entertainment team is enthousiast.
Disliked - Het is allemaal wat verouderd maar je ziet een wederopbouw gaande. Bed is echt keihard!

Liked - We really enjoyed out 4-night stay at this campsite. It was a great base to explore the Beaujolais Mountains in the car and also on our bikes (some of the hill were really steep!). The facilities were excellent (clean toilets and showers and washing up facilities) and the staff were very helpful at all times.
Disliked - Signage to the site could be better. First, our SatNav wanted to take us into the entrance to the actual lake complex and then it wanted us to take a right turn that would have been impossible towing a caravan (and we have a AVTEX Tourer SatNav!). The showers are lukewarm and could have been a bit hotter.

4.0

Travelling party: Group of friends

Liked - 8 jours debut juin quand il n'y a personne: 6 jours de tondeuse et taille haie, interdiction de rentrer 2 voitures même en étant en tente et sous la pluie (pour eviter les abus), et un accueil desagrable. Pour le reste, le camping et les environs sont magnifiques. C'est la 6 ème années que nous venont, ce sera la dernière. Les residents, qui partent les uns apres les autres, nous ont confirmé que le seul objectif est de faire du fric. Nous avons même été menacé par le mari de la receptionniste pour lui avoir manqué de respect (on a insisté pour la voiture arguant qu'il ny avait personne)
Disliked - Arrêter de ne penser qu'aux bénéfices!
Trop de bruit: prenez une equipe de jardinage et faites cela en une journée !

Travelling party: Family with children, 12 - 18 years

Liked - At first sight felt basic, but actually our pitch was excellent - quiet, private, green - and facilities were clean. Nearby facilities of the park, picnic grounds pool and lake - all a short walk - were absolutely excellent and the natural landscape very green and relaxing. No big road next to the lake - only nature and walking paths - and it could be accessed with SUP or kayak from anywhere. V close to campsite also a couple of lakeside restaurants (very basic food - pizza etc - but decent beer and wine). great walking trails, wished we'd booked for longer..
Disliked - The kids animation and entertainment area was a bit drab, but we had no need for it so it didn't bother us.
