We just spent a week at the Coteaux de la Marine.

Superb welcome from the whole team.

Truly peaceful, outside school holidays.

Very comfortable mobile home, with a big fried and freezer, coffee maker, and microwave.

Everything is done to make campers comfortable, and so they have no reason to go out. There is a shop, restaurant, pool, and boating area on the river etc)

We went kayaking in the Gorges de Verdon, leaving directly from the campsite.

Superb place. We filmed it, because it was so magnificent.

My only regret is that at this point in the year, the lavender fields were not still in bloom.

The real plus point was the WiFi in the mobile home, via a pass card, so we had Internet throughout the week, so we were able to watch our favourite programmes from TF1 and M6 replay.

A campsite to be recommended, especially outside school holidays. I don’t know how it is in July and August, but we were looking for tranquillity, and we found it.

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

Stony, dusty pitch, not very big, and there was a tree stump in it.

Toilets and showers often not very clean, no deep cleaning, and they did not smell clean (do they use any cleaning products?)

So, why the 4 stars (you can find better quality for the price).

We stayed at the Camping les Coteaux de la Marine at Montpezat, and it went very well! The reception staff is very friendly and competent. We were in a mobile home for 6 people, and it was very good, immaculately clean. It had everything you could need: microwave, oven, dishes, pans, coffee-maker, big fridge…

It's true that the pool is often crowded, but not always, and there are always other fun sporting activities (fit club, aquafun, …)

The shop staff is also very friendly, and you can get all you need there.

You can hire canoes and kayaks, and electric boats and pedalos, but you can't swim, as it's too cold.

I recommend this great campsite, and the area is magnificent!

Campsite with a very good location. Entertainment is high quality, super for the children. Peaceful, good quality services, very warm welcome. Very spacious mobile home for 6. We had a super stay in August 2010. Highly recommended.

Two weeks spent at Coteaux de la Marine at the end of June 2011. Pleasantly surprised by the kindness of the staff, a very pleasant campsite, peaceful, clean and relaxing, with an impeccable pool.

Magnificent region, with good walking.

What should I say about this campsite?

Awful reception for people in a caravan or under canvas.

Of course, the mobile homes bring in more cash, despite the little welcome presents they get.

But in my opinion, what is disastrous and deplorable is the entertainment. Activities during the day are non-existent, apart from water polo for half an hour in the morning, and in the afternoon, nothing. Try getting a 12-year-old girl to play water polo. However, she did learn to play table football. No activities, no initiatives, and we had the impression that we were bothering them. Eg, the pétanque: We arrived at 4:50 and waited 20 minutes, till the activity leader arrived, cigarette in her mouth. How many are you? There were ten of us. We waited, what for, we never knew, and eventually started the game at 5:40.

There had been no preparation, no compensation, no tournament, nor tennis, nor badminton, nor table tennis, nor volleyball, nothing. A boating facility where hire was very expensive, and you weren't allowed to swim.

If you want to have fun, don't go here.

And don't mention the rivalry between the bar/restaurant, the entertainers, and the centre of the village. Where's our campsite of yesteryear? I'm on the brink of going further, and recounting my dissatisfaction to appropriate authorities.

Brilliant campsite. We went as a family, from 12 to 72 years old, and everyone found something to suit them. The grandparents liked the family atmosphere, with shows every evening for every taste, children's, cabaret, concert…), the parents liked the water facilities, with canoes and boats to hire in a magnificent setting, the landscape, the natural setting, the children's and teenagers' clubs. The children and teenagers liked the pleasant, warm pool, the disco evenings for the youngest ones, and the number of other youngsters for making friends. Entertainments team friendly and helpful. Lots of activities: football tournament, volleyball, water polo, aquagym every day.

Well stocked and very useful shop. Mobile home was very modern, extremely clean and comfortable. Shady site, which is good because there was a lot of sun.

On the other hand, watch out that there is no reception for mobile phones on the Orange/Bouygues networks within the campsite itself: you have to go to the football pitch beside the car park.

To be recommended. Clean, welcoming, friendly, dynamic, entertainment even in low season.
