Ich und meine Familie hatten einen tollen Urlaub, ein Animationsteam an der Spitze, auch Reinigung, und vor allem Danke an das Poolteam besonders an Sophie, die trotz der Sprachbarriere mit uns zu sprechen und sich ihre Zeit gegeben hat, alles einfach dreisprachig, sie sprach deutsch mit uns und wenn... sie zweifelte sprach englisch mit uns! meine Kinder und ich haben es geliebt! Auch wenn sie nicht arbeitete, half sie uns, jede Animation zu verstehen und nahm in unseren Nachrichten jeden Tag eine echte Sonne auf!

Der CP ist schön gelegen, leider viele feste Zelte/Hütten, und hat eigentlich den Namen CP gar nicht verdient! Das.Sanitärhaus war leider sehr dreckig.
An der Rezeption wurden erst alle abgefertigt die eine Hütte/Zelt reserviert hatten erst dann kam der normale Camper an die Reihe, Geplant hatten... wir 1 Woche aber bei dem Empfang und die übrigen negativen Sachen sind wir am nächsten Tag wieder angereist.
Der Platz ist nicht zu empfehlen.

Have just spent a week (well 6 days due to a last minute dash home to avoid quarantine!!) at this lovely campsite. We chose it as we wanted a week abroad after lockdown but also wanted to be able to keep safe in these worrying times.So we were looking for somewhere to stay near a lake in the Southern... parts of France so we could paddle board and kayak (with our own equipment). This site was perfect. We stayed in a 3 bedroom mobile home with air con- very spacious, great location - near enough the lake (we could see it through the trees, other tents) but also as we were on an end of a line we had plenty of space and privacy. (bit limited in cooking equipment). The lake was stunning - beautifully clear, calm, clean - large enough to explore but not too big. (although when we decided to do a run around the lake, it is further than it looks!!)
When we paddled further away from the site there were some speed boats and water skiers - but they gave us plenty of space. We did hire a pedalo at one point from the site - which was good fun. It is possible to hire canoes and paddle boards from them too. There is also an aqua park - which we planned to do on the last day (but we had to miss that out). We ate at the site restaurant twice - which was really very good - staff were very friendly and helpful, and food was good and well priced. Staff at reception also very helpful - we had a puncture in car tyre at one point and they sorted out a local garage for us - and it was all fixed really quickly and quite cheaply. This site is rural and remote - but that is what we wanted! There are other activities - pool, tennis courts, table tennis - but we didn't use them. The lake was the big draw and it lived up to our hopes and some. We did drive around some of the villages within about 30-40 mins -which were very pretty and there are some good walks around. Didn't see/ hear any other English people whilst we were in this area - don't know if that is just this year or this area in general. We take this as a plus as we like to practise our French and immerse in the culture.

This is a great camp site for families, the facilities are very good including bar and restaurant, swimming pool, shop and very clean sanitary facilities. It is about 10 minutes drive from the small town of St. armans du Cots, or 30 mins on a bike. There are also sports on the beautiful lake that the... site is set around.

We stayed here from the 4th-12th August 2017. After a very long drive, the last hour being very windy up and down hills we arrived at the site. We were met by a rep who directed us to our checking in point - no paperwork, so I was directed to the reception, who after a little shuffling found the necessary... paperwork to book us in to our 'safari' tent. We were advised that due to an electrical fault the pool was closed for the next few days - shame as it was about 30 degrees here.

We drove to the tent and opened it, being pleasantly surprised at the space we had. However, I was disappointed to find after the hours and hours of travel we had to make all our beds ourselves! On closer inspection I felt the tent hadn't been swept through and indeed on checking the fridge, I knew this was the case as it was still dirty. Not wanting to make a fuss - I cleaned it myself!

The toilet blocks were on first inspection ok, although out of 6 loos, only 1 had a seat. I was surprised to find that there were two toilet roll dispensers on the walls OUTSIDE of the loos, and once these had run out of paper you had to buy your own.

The on site shop was reasonably well equipped - but pricey. The nearest proper supermarket 40 minutes away.

The pool, once open, and slides were ok. Luckily our children were still young enough not to get bored. The equipment for facilities such as ping pong/tennis were all payable unless you had your own bats etc. The lake was warm and clean, the pedalos cost 12€ for an hour, and the kids had great fun fishing off them and jumping in the lake.

The majority of the staff spoke no English, some with a few words, some with none. One I came across was good. There was no way in which you knew who was in charge as they all were in the late teens/early 20's - I'd like to have seen badges on them with their names, flags on for the languages they speak, and perhaps their job title.

Going back to the beds - the night time weather was FREEZING and the bedding was insufficient for the weather. In the end we all had to sleep in our clothes as there wasn't enough bedding.

The evening entertainment was fun - if you're under 10. They did some kind of play after a disco for the youngsters, the play was in French so we had no idea what it was about. The bar area was sparse, no chairs or tables inside away from the evening chill, it was poorly decorated. There were plenty of games people to play, such as pool - but all had a charge.

The onsite snack bar is as it says it is. No frills, no surprises. The restaurant we didn't go in.

Having said all this, the children loved it! They loved the freedom this site gave them, it's safe and spacious, the lake and pool were great and they spent many an hour on/around them.

This is my opinion after having stayed in another French chain of campsites for the last four years. So, perhaps I'm being a little negative - I don't know. I do know however, that I will not return here. I mentioned the dirty fridge on check out and was greeted with an 'oh'.........

My suggestion to the owners/managers; please put loo seats on all loos, have some kind of long handled squeegee for us to scrape the shower floors free of muddy puddles. Renovate your bar area, making it nicer to relax in. Move the children's evening entertainement earlier into the evening to allow room for the bar to be used more functionally. Have a visible hierarchy of staff members, badges on their uniforms.
