Camping Au Clos de La Chaume

A lovely quiet and peaceful camping site. The touring pitches are generous and well spaced out. The site also has a selection of cabins (very modern) and luxurious glamping tents some even have showers and toilets. There are two sanitary blocks both of which were meticulously clean throughout our stay. There are also dishwashing facilities and washing machines. The site has a lovely swimming pool which is heated and undercover although the sides open fully when warmer. There are numerous other facilities including pool tables, table tennis, games room, volleyball court, and trampolines so younger guests have a lot to keep them occupied. The reception building has plenty of information about the local area and sells fresh breads, wines, beer, and ice creams. There was also a small cabin where you can buy freshly cooked 🍟 although we didn't get a chance to try these as it was just opening as we left. But the absolute star of this site is the owners and staff. Fantastic, friendly, and helpful people who went above and beyond to help us which I will now expand on. Upon arrival at the site I drove straight over my levelling ramps causing damage to a fuel related tank on the underside of my motorhome🫢. The owners Raphael and Pascaline were absolute stars and went well beyond any normal expectations to help us and allowed us to stay for an extra unbooked week until we could get the van repaired, shuffling there bookings around to make space for us. In particular Raphael telephoned numerous local mechanics and car hire companies for us, offered to drive us in his own car to pick up a hire vehicle, found out what parts I needed and even helped me find them online because Peugeot were on back order for the parts. He came and checked on us every day and always made time for a chat telling us about interesting local history. Both Raphael and Pascaline speak exceptional fluent English and are a shining example for other site owners to aspire to. The other staff on site also deserve a mention as being very friendly and helpful. Ultimately the rest of our trip onwards to Croatia had to be cancelled due to not being able to re-book sites and needing to return to Wales for our dog. But I cannot think of a better place to be broken down for a week the local area is beautiful, the small village of Corcieux is only a 5 minute walk away and the larger town of Gerademar a 15 minute drive away. We cannot thank Raphael and Pascaline enough for Thier warm welcome, assistance and understanding. MERCI BEAUCOUP

gros coup de cœur ! L’accueil de la propriétaire : chaleureux et attentionné. La position : parfaite, au calme mais super bien desservi. La propreté : irréprochable, tout était nickel. Et que dire des petits plus ? Des animaux, un lac juste à côté, et le tout en plein soleil. Un vrai moment de déconnexion. Je recommande à 100% !

Pitch size was good, but overall the facilities on pitch were poor. Washing machines should be in a separate room. Better food outlets. Overpriced camping. Ed. Response to the owner, I clearly stated that the pitch was a good size, but the drainage connection was underneath a heavy stone slab and yes there was water and electricity but a more modern terminal for all services would have been better for older users. The point made regarding the washing machines is very simple, the machines are in a room with hot water cylinders which means you have to lock them up for safety sake, if they were moved away into another area or room there would be no need to lock them up. I've not seen washing machines or dryers locked up in 25 years of camping. In fact a municipal site we visited has the same machines with an honesty box with a charge of only 2€. The comments made should be viewed as constructive criticism, as most would see these items as obvious issues that can be rectified quite easily, but as with other slightly negative reviews here the owner is immediately on the defensive instead of responding with "we appreciate your comment and will aim to make improvements".

De tent staat, met een aantal andere safaritenten, op een groot veld op een leuke kleine camping, op wandelafstand van het centrum van het dorp. Buiten op de veranda staan twee heerlijke stoelen. Binnen is de tent ruim en de basics (pannen, borden) die je nodig hebt, zitten er in. Het sanitair op de camping werd goed schoon gehouden. Leuke omgeving voor een actieve vakantie, wandelen, kastelen, dorpjes en steden bezoeken, ook een paar meren. Voor dagactiviteiten moet je wel een stukje met de auto.

J’étais venu en 2013 ! 11 ans se sont écoulé je suis repassé en coup de vent sa a bien changé un de mes coups de cœur ce camping ! Pascaline et son mari de très belles personnes. Pascaline est à l’écoute des gens du camping en cas de besoin toujours présent ça fait vraiment plaisir ! ❤️
