Vriendelijke mensen, mooie omgeving. heerlijk rustig. Verder weinig te beleven. Prima voor 1 overnachting. Jammer dat het licht van de douche uitgaat, de sensor zit n.l. in de ruimte buiten de douche.

Wij zijn hier 4 nachten geweest.
De plekken zijn ruim.
Het sanitair is schoon en de douches zijn groot. Er is overal warm water ook voor de afwas en de hand was.
Het echtpaar wat de camping runt zijn gastvrij en behulpzaam.
Er kan op de camping gegeten worden en wij hebben dit 2 keer gedaan en beide keren heerlijk gegeten.
Brood kun je bestellen en wij hebben alle ochtenden en meergranen broodje gehad wat heerlijk was.
Er kan met Visa betaald worden en alles in 1 keer ook het eten, drankjes, brood etc.
Vanuit de camping kan er prima gefietst of gewandeld worden. Het plaatsje Blaye is hier een aanrader om te bekijken. Wij zijn op de fiets gegaan.
Al met al een prachtige camping waar men alles prima voor elkaar heeft.
Mochten we in de toekomst in de buurt zijn dan gaan we zeker terug.

Als het ware een oase tussen de wijnvelden. Het is een stukje natuur tussen de \"kale\" wijnvelden. Wij waren er in april voor één nacht. Het is een gezellige camping. In april nog rustig maar dat is vast anders in de zomer. Het restaurant en het zwembad waren nog niet open. Het sanitair was redelijk nieuw en zag er keurig uit. Douches lekker warm. Achter de camping is een bos waar je je hond kunt uitlaten. De camping beheerders waren (vriendelijk) streng voor wat betreft het aanlijnen van je hond.
Zeker een camping om nog eens terug te komen.

super klein maar fijne camping, zeer vriendelijke eigenaars, grote aangename staanplaatsen meestal onder de bomen in de schaduw, klein minpuntje, vernieuw het zwembad met de tijd en plaats lichtpuntjes bij de tonnen met de watervoorziening, \'s avonds in het donker zie je ze niet staan, daardoor mors je en verspil je water als je kraantje opendraait

Zoek je natuur en rust ? Wakker worden door het getsjilp van de vogeltjes ?Dit is the place to be. Grote plaatsen met veel of wat minder schaduw. Zwembad geschikt om baantjes te trekken. Sanitair zeer netjes. Mooie omgeving. Gezellig restaurantje. Een probleem ? Philippe en Benedicte lossen het op !Fantastische uitbaters! Ik had een probleem met mijn racefiets en Philippe heeft hem na een uur sleutelen terug in orde gebracht. Als gewezen triatleet gidste hij ons persoonlijk door de prachtige omgeving.

Fantastische camping! Groen, grote plaatsen en zeer rustieke/pittoreske uitstraling. Sfeervol en leuk restaurantje met terras. Daarnaast ook mogelijkheden om te verblijven in leuke hutjes/vooropgezette tenten, ideaal voor bijv fietsvakantie. De eigenaren zijn enorm aardig en behulpzaam. Wij kwamen hier bij toeval terecht als doorreiscamping, maar waren zeer positief verrast. Komen hier zeker nog eens terug om er wat langer te blijven!
