A very pleasant site with friendly and helpful owners. Modern and very clean Sanitaire. Just a few miles from the A6 so it is excellent for a stopover. This price a night is a bargain. Lovely smart village with a fantastic Basilica and a good, if pricey, boulangerie.

Travelling party: Couple

A lovely site with the most welcoming and friendly owners,
The toilet and shower block is unbeatable, very modern and meticulously clean, with plenty of toilets, urinals and large showers
The pitches are nicely laid out with more than enough room for big units.
The owners have a small catering trailer on site with a sitting area under cover, doing pizza, burgers, fish and chips etc, and the quality of food was really good and tasty, unfortunately when we were there, out of season, the choice wasn’t as vast, with some items not available, ( pizza and calamari with chips were excellent)
very welcoming of dogs too, making a fuss of our two.
We didn’t try, or even notice sports facilities, apart from an adjacent tennis court, and fishing close by.
All in all, a lovely site with a good feel to it, we would most certainly return.
