We had an amazing time at Les Charmettes. We did not camp but it is our third visit. This time we went with our severely disabled son with Make-A-Wish Foundation. They organised our holiday, but Les Charmettes let us have the mobile home free of charge. All the staff were excellent and it is all spectacularly clean and very well run. A superb time for my son and us. We will be back!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have recently returned from a 10 day holiday at les Charmettes. The onsite facilities are excellent and there were plenty of activities for all of the children (ages 7-14). The only criticism I would have is the fact that most of the nightly entertainment was French. I feel that this is unfair on English speaking children. After spending a couple of nights there we became bored and the children uninterested as they didn't understand the shows. Apart from this we had a great time and will probably return.

Excellent campsite. Wonderful entertainment with special thank you to Anthony who entertained my 5 and 6 year old brilliantly. Really loved his job and it showed, nothing was too much trouble. Beautiful pool area with clean areas to sunbathe and good lifeguard cover at all times giving us great peace of mind (and able to sunbathe!)

We did not like our accommodation though, it was terrible.

We rented 321 independently and it was filthy and could have easily spoilt the holiday if we had let it! We were booked for 1 week in May and the weather was gorgeous. This was lucky as the cooker was disgustingly greasy and full of mouldy old food! Had booked 2 more weeks in August but cancelled and thought losing £200 deposit worth it!

Brill campsite though kids loved it

  Remember that people are always more prepared to write and complain than they are to praise good service.  
 

The campsite Les Charmettes has a very good pool area, but apart from that, there is plenty that could be improved – notably a security service that could give us the chance of a good night's sleep!

We stayed a week, and it's really very noisy, with incessant comings and goings of cars and scooters, and people shouting all night outside the mobile homes. Entertainment is more often in English than in French – we were very disappointed! This is the third campsite we have tried at La Palmyre, and we won't be returning!

We recently returned from Les Charmettes, loved it. The site is large, but each pitch is quiet and very private. We were a long way from the facilities but I could use the exercise. We did pony riding, mini golf, tennis, karting, the seaside, swimming and much more. The area is great as well, rolling hills, beautiful beaches. Would strongly recommend the market in Les Mathes. Staff were all excellent and helpful. Fully intend to go back and would have no hesitation in recommending it to families. Siblu is excellent value for money.
