Le véritable agneau
Phew, campsite right in front of the beach with very fine sand and also having two water and electricity services. We were able to put our tent directly on our car! Swimming pool available and slide. Very clean shower and toilet available at all times! I will return anytime! Reserve your pitch very early!

A very bad experience. The campsite was extremely noisy, with dirty toilets and a light directly on our pitch, making it impossible to sleep in the dark. What's more, a singer played until 11 p.m. and sang very poorly, making the evening even more unpleasant. We had requested a pitch without services and paid for it, but were given a pitch with services. Furthermore, we had specifically requested a pitch by the water, but we were far from it. The worst campsite we've ever been to. I absolutely do not recommend it.

Really sad. I took the trouble to book in the morning, on the way, so the kids would have time to enjoy the pool and the slides (1 of 2). I had booked a site on the riverside and when we arrived, our site was occupied... It took an hour to relocate us upstairs with the trailers in the end 🙉! Little privacy on the sites and poor management.

Exceptional welcome and hospitality. Noëlla and Michel as well as Dénis are so attentive. Memorable stay. Thank you for everything. Johnny and Helene

Sanitary block far enough from the tent pitches. No hot water in the shower in the morning. No place to throw garbage except outside the campsite. No specific place to wash dishes. Lack of toilet paper. Camping is poorly thought out for those traveling in a tent. Loud neighbors with dog howling at night. Paid cash only. Clean toilet and shower. The beach is wonderful.
