Great family site
We first visited this site about 30 years ago and have done several stop-overs since. We always loved it so decided to stay 8 nights this year. The site has evolved into much more of a tourist/family site and has been well and truly found by the British! So the French flavour isn't so much in evidence. The view over the Loire is still lovely and the sparkling wine producers at St. Hilaire St. Florent are still producing their nectar but I doubt if we will stay again as it was too much of a family holiday site for a "mature" (!) couple. Our emplacement was very small compared to all the others we saw, possibly because we were just a couple and not a family. Some other emplacements were huge and well used. We were opposite the children's playground which was very good for little children and a source of endless amusement for us but we could have done with a bit more peace and quiet. Showers, toilets etc were fine, the pools were rather chaotic and inclined to be cloudy which made us question their cleanliness. The footbath you have to go through when entering the pool area was disgusting. The shop was adequate but there is a large E Leclerc in Saumur which is excellent. We have always admired the fact that mentally handicapped people are employed on the site and also at the sister site near Brissac (where we have also stayed). This is not the site for a relaxing stay but excellent for young families as there is a lot going on.
