Excellent site with loads of things to keep the kids occupied. Most of the toilet blocks are modern but the one next to the fishing lake could do with a spruce up. The swimming pools were very clean and the kids enjoyed them. Fishing is also good on this site. Warning do not use Venue Holidays. Tents very old and very dirty. You get what you pay for. Would go back to this site but would use a different camping company

Excellent site. Stayed in a Canvas Holidays mobile - spot on! Very clean, loads of space. Canvas reps very, very helpful. We had good weather for our five days the last week of August and it was fairly quiet as the schools were about to go back so this helps with our opinion. Pools very good, facilities very good. Only one niggle, the on site restaurant isn't very good but there's other options half a mile into the village. Take a pushbike for getting round the site as its huge (and flat). Would go to this site with Canvas again.

I do not recommend this site for tents or touring caravans and tents. I would even be circumspect about it for mobile homes. When we stayed (Late August 2010) they had overbooked so tourers and tents were stuffed into any corner they could - often like us on flooded and muddy areas. After complaining a great deal we were put onto one emplacement which was half usable instead of the two pitches booked months before.

We came across a host of safety hazards while on the site:

1. Inadequately filtered swimming pool water - very cloudy.

2. Lack of temperature control on showers - freezing or boiling.

3. Poor chemical disposal facilities

4. No waste waste disposal drains

5. Electricity supplies via extension leads stretched across

6. Fire risk (never mind social discomfort from tents and caravans being pitched almost touching

7. Toilet floors constantly wet from overflow from toilet bowls

Stayed here July 2011, 2 words - 'just awful'. If you are looking for a french version of a british holiday camp but without the entertainment and good humour, this is it. In fact not much about this site would suggest anything French.

Mobile home was very clean but pitch smelled of raw sewage and had a strange little 'house' built on to the site, many, many other pitches had these - a feature of the site in fact. However these were dark, smelly and full of insects - nice.

Camp shop was very expensive and staff obviously fed up with the brits tallking to them in english. Campsite bakery was fab though.

Swimming pool was brilliant apart from the children's pool which smelled so strongly of sick we couldn't use it.

Next to zero on-site evening entertainment - 2 -3 events per month - very poor compared to the site we were on the 2 weeks before in Dordogne.

We only stayed there as it was close for a Paris visit, we would not return or recommend.

We normally use this website to write glowing reviews, but alas, not this time:(

Took our own caravan given pitch opposite beach lake which was an excellent placement for all activities. Campsite caters for all ages with excellent swimming pool. Staff on site very friendly and helpful (canvas into action reps especially). Toilet blocks kept very clean by hard working staff who fought a losing battle due to holidaymakers who left shower cubicles dirty threw toilet paper around the floor and squeezed toothpaste on the floor. Excellent beach party and firework display on our first Saturday there. Would recommend this site in spite of the Brits.
