We spent 7 nights at the campsite and really enjoyed our stay. The pitches are spacious and well laid out, and the sanitary facilities are always clean and well-maintained (and that deserves to be emphasized!). The mobile homes are also large, comfortable, very clean and well-equipped. The setting is calm and relaxing, right in the middle of nature, ideal for a family getaway. There's also a trampoline, board games, table tennis and badminton equipment. The campsite also accepts dogs, and ours also had an excellent week, especially our 6-month-old baby dog. Many thanks to Thibault, Amélie, Jade and Tiana for their warm welcome and availability. We have very fond memories of this week and will be back with pleasure for Ascension Day, when the swimming pool opens. We hope to see you soon!

Nous avons passé 7 nuits au camping et avons vraiment apprécié notre séjour. Les emplacements sont spacieux et bien aménagés, et les sanitaires sont toujours propres et bien entretenus (et ça, ça mérite d’être souligné !). Les mobil-homes sont également grands, confortables, très propres et bien équipés. Le cadre est calme et reposant, en pleine nature, idéal pour se détendre en famille. Petit plus appréciable : trampoline, jeux de société, ainsi que du matériel pour le ping-pong et le badminton. Le camping accepte aussi les chiens, et les nôtres ont eux aussi passé une excellente semaine surtout notre bébé chien de 6 mois. Un grand merci à Thibault, Amélie, ainsi qu’à Jade et Tiana pour leur accueil chaleureux et leur disponibilité. Nous gardons un très bon souvenir de cette semaine et reviendrons avec plaisir pour l’Ascension avec l'ouverture de la piscine. À bientôt !
