Terrific Location
The site is alongside the River Cher in the middle of the Loire Chateau Region. Culture vultures will be spoilt for choice with so many wonderful chateaux to visit. The only downside is that rivers don’t always stay where they are supposed to! The Cher burst its banks in June 2016 and it’s great credit to the staff that the site is functioning so well. The pitches are grass and the arrangement is somewhat haphazard. There doesn’t seem to be any delineation between adjacent pitches, so it’s difficult to see where one pitch ends and the next one begins. The electricity points seem to be on a first come first served basis.
The facilities have been completely refurbished to a good standard. We didn’t use the restaurant but the menu looked very good. People from an adjacent pitch said the food was excellent. The only problem was the electricity supply. The whole site plunged into darkness several times, the last time for an hour. It seems that there is a problem in the locality, because the owner informed us that the "whole village was blacked out.” Whether this is a temporary blip or something more permanent remains to be seen.
All in all, well worth a visit if you want to see some of the finest chateaux in France and to sample the local Touraine wine.
