We have spent the last 5 years holidaying in France and have finally found the perfect camp site. From your first contact with Herve, the friendly owner until the moment we arrived into this very well kept and impressive site you had a good feeling. We were not disappointed. We rented a 3 roomed mobile home direct from the owners. These were situated in beautiful wooded pitches between the main campsite and the lake. The pool area was top class and our kids (11,9,4) had hours of fun on the fantastic waterslides. A bit on the chilly side some days. The site had a good mix of Dutch/French and some Irish. The bar area was big and new with a big outside area where it was pleasant to have a drink in the evening. (Oh for an efficient barman, on any french camp site) The entertainment was a bit French and got a bit noisy for me later on but the kids enjoyed it. There were plenty of teenagers on site who seemed to be having a ball but they had the space so as not to be imposing on anyone with younger families. The thing that won me over most was the lake and beach. On a hot day lying on your own private beach 50 meters from your mobile along side the lake was brilliant. All the kids had inflatable dingys and there was a diving platform in the middle of the lake. Do not let the green colour of the water put you off swimming. We stayed out for day but after that took the plunge. The covered pool overlooking the lake is ideal for an early morning swim. The site restaurant is quite good and pleasant to eat in. The Auberge in St Catherine 1 mile from the site is wonderful whether you eat outside in the tranquil village square or upstairs in the beautiful dining room. We will be back for certain.
