We had a lovely holiday here and would stay there again, though some of the facilities could be better.

The campsite is located in woods right by the dunes, so that it is an easy walk over the dunes to an uncrowded beach. The site is also well shaded by trees. It was quiet where we were pitched, near the back gate, though it would have been noisier near the bar. The pitch was a good size but sandy and uneven. Some pitches looked quite small. There is a small indoor pool and a nice outdoor pool, though both were a bit cold. Near the bar they served excellent food in the evening to eat there or take away.

The toilets were clean but did not have seats. The showers were nice and warm but there were occasional queues. There is a shop where you can buy baguettes and other essentials but you are not far from a large hypermarket. We had some difficulties with the electrics despite being prepared for reverse polarity. We had to try several sockets before my socket tester confirmed correct polarity, and even with a 25 m extension it was a stretch.

We had some magical evenings walking onto the dunes to watch the sunset over the Atlantic as a full moon was rising, then walking back to the sound of thousands of crickets.

In summary, a fantastic location for people who do not like crowded resorts, and although the facilities could have been better, we plan to stay there again next year.
