nice surprise

Arrived during the agricultural festival the first weekend in September, very busy town and route to site but found no problem towing and arrival,only stayed overnight enroute south,very peaceful night,pleasant reception and given a perfect pitch. Returned two weeks later for a five night stay, town quieter but the site did remain busy mainly with holidaymakers en route. Reception very good and smooth, spoke good English and with a smile. Pitch excellent good satellite reception.

Good for short stops.

After reading some of the reviews on here we were a bit concerned as we had already booked a one night stopover whilst returning from Switzerland. We were pleasantly surprised to find that the site is nowhere near as bad as some reviews. Very generous pitches (for French standards). Toilet block getting tired but once this is rectified this will be a very good site. Good location with a very nice lake to walk dog around. Wouldn't hesitate to use again. For an accurate review read the 'Comment from Club' (July 2022) below.

Excellent site

We had 4 sites booked in France. Unlike the UK they are rated in France by the local authority. We booked two 4 star sites including this one and two 5 star sites. We ended up back at this site as we were very dissappointed with the others. Yes the facilities are a little tired. The staff are fantastic, there is a bakers and supermarket 5 minutes walk away. The site is very quiet. Privacy hedges. Yeah the toilets have no seats! Not a deal breaker. Good laundry for the clothes. It would be an ideal site for someone passing through. We however spent nearly 11 days here and we shall return.

Don't book here unless it's just a stop over.

We stopped here on our way home from Switzerland so only stayed here from 16:30pm to 8am the following day (which was enough). The site could be nice with a lot of maintenance and cleaning. I'm not really sure how this is a recommended site on here. The staff are nice but the owners have not looked after what could be a nice place. Our pitch was hardstanding but completly over grown with weeds and had a cracked concrete drain cover with a deep hole which would have easily caused injury or damage to a van. Don't book here unless it's just a stop over.

Comment from the Club

One of our Campsite Contractors recently visited this campsite in July 2022 after reading these reviews and has submitted the following report.

This campsite was formerly a municipal site and has been taken over by the Aquadis group. The reception staff are friendly and speak good English. The camping area is attractive with good sized pitches, mostly with welcome shade and the pitches had been recently mown and were well presented when I visited. There are 2 washblocks on site. The first of these is adjacent to reception and close to most touring pitches. This block is of a good standard, clean and well maintained. The second block, at the far end of the site, however is much older, and although clean, it is inferior to the main block. We understand that there are plans to replace this block in the near future.


There is an attractive lake on site and a number of amenities that are free of charge to all guests, notably tennis and mini golf, plus there is a small snack bar. The town of Chalons-en-Champagne is well worth a visit and a convenient bus service runs very close to the site entrance. Despite its urban setting, the site retains a pleasant rural character.


Overall, I would recommend this site for a shorter stay, or an overnight stop given its good access to the major routes.

Not recommended! Avoid and find somewhere else!

Lovely friendly staff. In major need of an update and overhaul! It’s not been touched for years! Poorly maintained - pitches in need of a clear up. Toilet block very poor- no toilet seats are not suitable for us. Luckily we are self contained and used to using our own facilities. Heavily used as a transit site - we regret having booked a week. ONE MAJOR QUESTION - WHY IS THIS SITE RECOMMENDED BY THE CAMC - IT SIMPLY IS NOT UP TO STANDARD???!!
