A lovely stay

We booked this site for five nights in August and were a little apprehensive about our stay having read some of the posted reviews. However, we had a very enjoyable stay and would happily have stayed longer. The site certainly doesn’t have manicured grass and gravelled access roads, it has a wilder, forest feel to it. We found it to be clean and tidy, and in the middle of August we expected the grass to be showing a little wear and tear which it was. Our pitch overlooked the Loire, which we did pay a premium for, but it was worth it for the views, the sunrises and the sunsets. The access roads around the site were tight, but manageable for our large caravan, but this is typical of many French sites. We had to use the motor mover to get the caravan onto and off the pitch which was spacious and reasonably private. The tap closest to us was not working, but there was another a short walk away. EHU was on the pitch and was reliable throughout our stay. The showers and toilets were spotless whenever we used them and there were plenty of them. The chemical toilet disposal is a regular toilet in the main toilet block which we thought was a bit unusual, bit it was clean and functional. We had a warm welcome when we arrived and the staff we met were helpful and friendly. There was an eclectic range of onsite entertainment if you wanted it, including wine tasting, an astronomy evening, medieval workshop, kayaking trips, yoga, outdoor cinema and a local craft and produce market. We didn’t use the bar or restaurant as we thought the prices were far too high for pizza and burger meals; far pleasanter to cook al fresco on your pitch! Maybe we were just lucky with our stay, but we certainly didn’t encounter any of the problems we read about in older reviews.
