A very nice little campground with a pool to cool off in. Just a 10-minute drive to the Verdon. Large, beautiful campsites with shade. The washrooms are very clean. The owner is very nice, and the atmosphere at the campground is very friendly and peaceful. You can order baguettes, croissants, and other items for breakfast. There are plenty of nice amenities for kids and everyone else: a trampoline, a deep pool with lounge chairs and umbrellas plus a kiddie pool, ping-pong tables with paddles available to borrow, badminton rackets, and a bocce court with balls. We also really appreciated that there are no lights along the paths, which makes it nice and dark at night. We felt very comfortable with our trailer and tent and would definitely come back!

Sehr schöner kleiner Campingplatz mit Pool zum erfrischen. Nur 10 Minuten mit dem Auto an den Verdon. Großer schöner Stellplatz mit Schatten. Die Waschhäuser sind sehr sauber. Der Betreiber ist sehr nett und die Stimmung auf dem Platz ist sehr freundlich und ruhig. Fürs Frühstück können Baguette, Croissants und weiteres bestellt werden. Für Kinder und alle anderen gibt es einiges nettes bereitgestellt: ein Trampolin, einen tiefen Pool mit Liegen und Schirmen + Kinderbecken , Tischtennisplatten und dazu Schläger zum Ausleihen, Badmintonschläger und einen Bouleplatz mit Kugeln. Was wir auch sehr angenehm fanden, war dass es keine Lampen an den Wegen gibt, wodurch es nachts schön dunkel ist. Wir haben uns mit unserem Wohnwagen und Zelt sehr wohlgefühlt und würden immer wieder kommen!

The campground was overrun with wasps and mosquitoes. The restaurant was closed and not in communication with the front desk, creating a problem for guests who had planned to dine there. The campground offered no alternative solution.

Camping invaso da vespe e zanzare. Il ristorante chiuso che non comunica con la reception creando un problema agli ospiti che avevano pensato di cenare in loco. Nessuna soluzione alternativa da parte della struttura.
