    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A true family campground: we loved it and have already signed up for next year!

    How can I describe what a wonderful vacation we had? I’ll try to be as objective as possible. We stayed in a Prestige chalet during the first two weeks of July.

    🏡 The Accommodation

    Let’s be honest, the chalet feels a bit “dated.” On the other hand, it’s very functional, spacious, and offers plenty of storage (several cabinets in the kitchen and ample space in the bedrooms for clothes).

    Downsides: The creaky floorboards and a rather noisy air conditioner (but very effective!).

    🎭 Facilities and Activities

    The stage is very well designed and ideally located next to the restaurant and playgrounds, which is a real plus for keeping an eye on the kids while enjoying the moment.

    The activities offered are perfectly balanced and led with heart by the team, who bring a lot of enthusiasm to them. Special mention goes to the many external vendors invited by the campground, whose activities are completely free for us.

    🌊 The water parks

    The two areas complement each other perfectly:

    The lagoon: Absolutely amazing! The depth is ideal for playing ball or relaxing on inflatable mats. The only minor downside: there aren’t quite enough lounge chairs to relax on.
    The pool with slides: Perfect for all the more energetic activities you don’t do in the lagoon.
    🍽 The restaurant

    Although it’s independent of the campground, it’s worth mentioning. The food is far superior to what you usually find at other campgrounds. It’s locally sourced and run by a real team of chefs. We even got to chat with the chef during a cooking workshop that we particularly enjoyed.

    💬 In summary

    Having been accustomed to Capfun campgrounds for several years, we rediscovered the true spirit of camping here. A family-friendly atmosphere, a genuine sense of closeness with the entire staff (from management to the technical team), and very friendly guests.

    To tell you the truth, we even extended our stay by three days because we didn’t want to leave!

    We’ve already booked for next year. Well done and THANK YOU!

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Un vrai camping familial : nous avons adoré et déjà re-signé pour l'année prochaine !

    Comment dire que nous avons passé de superbes vacances ? Je vais essayer d'être le plus objectif possible. Nous avons séjourné les deux premières semaines de juillet dans un chalet Prestige.

    🏡 Le logement

    On ne va pas se mentir, le chalet fait un peu "vieillot". En revanche, il est très fonctionnel, spacieux et offre énormément de rangements (plusieurs placards dans la cuisine et de vrais espaces dans les chambres pour les vêtements).

    Points négatifs : Le plancher qui couine et une climatisation plutôt bruyante (mais très efficace !).

    🎭 Les installations et animations

    La scène est très bien pensée et idéalement située à côté du restaurant et des aires de jeux, ce qui est un vrai plus pour surveiller les enfants tout en profitant du moment.

    Les activités proposées sont parfaitement dosées et animées avec le cœur par l'équipe et avec beaucoup d'entrain. Mention spéciale pour les nombreux prestataires externes invités par le camping, dont les interventions sont totalement gratuites pour nous.

    🌊 Les espaces aquatiques

    Les deux zones sont parfaitement complémentaires :

    Le lagon : Absolument génial ! La profondeur est idéale pour jouer au ballon ou se détendre sur des matelas gonflables. Seul petit bémol : il manque un peu de transats pour se poser.
    La piscine avec toboggans : Parfaite pour toutes les activités plus dynamiques que l'on ne fait pas au lagon.
    🍽 Le restaurant

    Bien qu'il soit indépendant du camping, il mérite d'être mentionné. La cuisine est bien supérieure à ce que l'on trouve d'ordinaire dans les autres campings. C'est du local, géré par une vraie équipe de cuisiniers. Nous avons même pu échanger avec le chef lors d'un atelier cuisine que nous avons particulièrement apprécié.

    💬 En résumé

    Nous qui étions habitués aux campings de la chaîne Capfun depuis plusieurs années, nous avons retrouvé ici le vrai esprit camping. Une ambiance familiale, une vraie proximité avec l'ensemble du staff (de la direction à l'équipe technique) et une clientèle très sympathique.

    Pour tout vous dire, nous avons même prolongé notre séjour de 3 jours car nous ne voulions plus partir !

    Nous avons déjà réservé pour l'année prochaine. Bravo et MERCI !

    It's a great campground—the lagoon is fantastic, as is the pool; the recreational areas are great; the campground staff are friendly and cheerful; and the snack bar is cool.To improve the campground, they should add charging stations for electric cars (there are currently two, one of which doesn’t work). They should also offer better entertainment, because aside from the blind tests and quizzes, the activities aren’t anything special (no offense). One small downside: part of the campground is a steep hill, so if you’re staying toward the bottom, you have to walk all the way back up to get to the front desk or the snack bar, for example. Also, more lighting should be added in certain areas of the campground—for instance, I was staying at site 119, and when I came back in the evening, it was pitch black. Nevertheless, it’s a good campground.

    Bon camping,le lagon est super,la piscine également,les espaces loisirs sont super,le personnel du camping est souriant et joyeux,le snack est cool.Pour améliorer le camping,il faudrait ajouter des bornes pour voitures électriques (2 actuellement dont 1 qui ne fonctionne pas) il faudrait aussi des meilleurs animations car à part les blinds tests et les quiz,les animations ne sont pas extraordinaire (sans être méchant).Petit point négatif : une partie du camping est une grande montée donc si on n'est vers le bas,on doit tout remonter pour aller à la réception ou au snack par exemple et aussi il faudrait rajouter des éclairages dans certains endroits du camping car par exemple moi qui était au 119 quand je rentrais le soir il faisait tout noir. Néanmoins c'est un bon camping

    We were on a pitch, for summer the campsite is perfect, there are lots of beautiful trees, perfect for the heat. The campsite is very clean, the staff👍. There's everything on site to eat, the village is a stone's throw away, you can find everything, there's even a pharmacy. The campsite has a family atmosphere, and the staff are there to take care of you. All you have to do is enjoy your vacation: there are plenty of places to visit nearby, and on site, a swimming pool, a lagoon, a relaxation area, outdoor games for young and old alike, etc. There's even a robin that wanders around the plots to finish off your crumbs. Peaceful camping!

Il y a tout sur place pour se restaurer, le village est à deux pas, on y trouve de tout, il y a même une pharmacie. Le camping a une ambiance familiale, l'équipe en place est à vos petits soins. Il n'y a qu'à profiter de ses vacances, à proximité il y a beaucoup d'endroits à visiter, et sur place, piscine, lagon, espace détente, des jeux d'extérieur pour les grands et les petits, ect...il y a même un rouge gorge qui se promène sur les parcelles pour finir vos miettes. Camping tranquille!
