A Great stop over when going north or south on the A75. lovely English lady in reception. Fresh baguettes and croissants available to order.
pitches are a decent size but some levelling ramps are needed. Electric and water close to most pitches. Toilet block was clean and the added bonus is you get toilet paper and a toilet seat but alas the soap to wash your hands with was empty and no hand dryer. All in all a very nice site and we will be back

Planning to stay two nights, but only stayed one night. Very nice English Lady at Reception. Lovely pitches, Good Price plus tax with ACSI Card The Pizza Man, comes on a Tuesday, really good Pizza for two people. It was about 4 miles off the Motorway. When we arrived it was hot and lots of flies, then there was the most tremendous Thunderstorm. So pack up, luckily before the Rain started. Did it come down, then in the morning lots of mist and fog. You can order Bread and Croissants f

Travelling party: Couple

This is one of my favourite ever ACSI sites. It is peaceful, the air is fresh and clean at 900 metres, and the sanitary facilities are excellent and spotless. You can choose between a wooded or open location, but the open locations are well sheltered and private thanks to neatly kept hedges. The manager is absolutely delightful and speaks excellent English as well as French and German

Great low cost stopover site not far off the A75 motorway. Friendly reception, English spoken, order bread night before or get from the boulingery (250 metres) in the village. Some pitches sloping but plenty to choose from when we visited in September. Excellent find, would definitely use again.

Es ist ein Campingplatz für jemand der die Ruhe und Stille liebt, gerne Wandert oder mit dem Fahrrad unterwegs ist. Es gibt auch viele Ausflugsziele in der Nähe die sich absolut lohnen.

Wonderful gem of a place. Claire was so helpful and kind and spoke perfect English and German. The site is set alongside a wooded area with amazing views of the surrounding countryside. Very good facilities and spotlessly clean. Excellent value with ACSI.

What a gem this campsite is. Wish we had discovered it before. Beautiful views, spotless facilities, extremely helpful and friendly staff. Bread etc available to order at the site or an easy walk into the village for it. The short walk ‘Le Chemin de Ronde’ is a must. We were there on a Sunday and enjoyed a coffee, the market and a stroll. We will be back. Thank you Claire for a very enjoyable stay.
