Camping L'Étang, Loire Valley, September 2026
Overall, this had been a pretty good stay. The site is well equipped and in a great central location for wine enthusiasts. The restaurant was closed, but we knew that going in it's low season, and we'd prepared for it.
It's now 5am on Sunday, September... 20th, and my wife and I have been awake since 1am because of a wedding party that outstayed its welcome. This is the second weekend in a row this has happened. Tonight, a pounding, Glastonbury-style bassline stopped at 02:45, only to be replaced two minutes later by another thumping bassline elsewhere on the campsite, accompanied by a drunken crowd singing football chants until 4am. That was followed by a lone drunk with his own bassline, singing at the top of his voice until I assume he collapsed or fell asleep around 5am. I want to be clear: he was on the campsite, not outside it. I checked.
We deliberately holiday at this time of year because most sites are half-empty and quiet. Camping L'Étang, however, seems to use the off-season to host weddings and let the site out to large groups of men for social gatherings or bowls tournaments. They also took over the swimming pool entirely for a rowdy game of volleyball. Could other paying guests be allowed to use the facilities too, please?
I went to reception in the morning to complain and was told: "We don't host the wedding venue during June or July." I can only conclude from this that peak-season guests are valued more than off-season ones in other words, if you want less noise, book a different date. I pointed out that licensing rules and campsite regulations should apply to everyone, regardless of when they're booked in. A look through other reviews shows this isn't an isolated issue there's a pattern of complaints about antisocial noise at unreasonable hours. There's no way to report a problem as it's happening, no security on site enforcing the rules, and the phone number listed simply wasn't answered.
We had two lodges booked for the same two weeks in 2027, intending to bring family out with us. Both bookings were cancelled this morning.
This is a real shame, because Carla at reception was lovely, friendly and genuinely accommodating.
Ultimately, leadership sets the tone from the top, and the site manager whoever that is, is the one who should be held accountable for antisocial behaviour at night or any other time.
Despite the location and generally decent facilities, this site won't be on our list to revisit any time soon. Two recklessly managed nights undid what had otherwise been a pleasant stay, and we're not willing to take that chance again. Holidays are meant for rest and recovery, we can't say we came away with either.

Stayed on this campsite in a touring caravan for 5 nights at the beginning of September and I would not come back.
The restaurant and bar were closed (despite being advertised to the contrary on booking) due to being ‘out of season’ from 1st September.
However the campsite was quite busy and anti-socially... noisy. People were not quiet until after 11pm and there was a wedding on the Saturday in the park that had very loud music and PA system until almost 1am. We were told on check-in to avoid pitches near the buildings due to the wedding but the entire site could not escape the noise!
The only saving grace was the shaded pitch and local town, but there are other campsites we’ve stayed at in the area that are much better.

Camping de L'Etang was the second stop on our three-week tour of northern France. We chose it primarily because we wanted to get close to the Loire, and in that respect it delivered — the location is excellent for exploring the area.
Unfortunately, we were less impressed with the campsite itself. It... was perfectly fine for a couple of nights, but I think we would have been quite disappointed if this had been our main destination for a longer stay.
The site is described as an eco campsite, although to us this seemed to translate into a lot of structures and facilities that felt unfinished or incomplete.
Next to our pitch was an open-air washing-up station with two toilets. The toilets themselves were proper ceramic toilets, but having two toilet cubicles simply attached to the sinks, without any additional enclosing structure, felt rather strange and somewhat inappropriate. It gave the impression that the facilities had been started but not quite finished.
The showers had a similar feel. They were perfectly usable, but they were also outdoors, this time underneath a larger roof. Imagine a barn with no walls, containing lots of individual shower cubicles that are themselves open to the elements — that's essentially what it was like.
The whole site was also very dusty. Because so much of it is open and spread out, very little ever seemed particularly clean. It wasn't dirty as such, but everything had a rather dusty, unfinished feel.
The shop was a real disappointment. It does have the basics such as milk and some wine, but there wasn't much else that you could realistically use to put together a meal. The pre-ordered bakery offering was similarly disappointing.
That said, the location is genuinely excellent.
During our stay we visited Château de Saumur, Château de Brissac and the Troglodyte Village, all of which were wonderful trips out. So if you're using the campsite as a base for exploring the Loire, it does have a lot going for it.
Brissac is the nearest village and has a stunning bakery. You can actually walk there along the river. It was simply too hot for us to do the walk during the day, particularly as we had our dog with us. We did manage the walk one evening, though, and if we'd been travelling without the dog and the weather had been cooler, it would have made for a lovely outing: walk into Brissac, visit the château, pick up lunch from the bakery and walk back along the river.
One word of warning when arriving with a larger touring outfit: don't blindly follow the route you're given to your pitch.
When we arrived, the receptionist marked the route to our pitch on the map. I specifically double-checked with her that it was suitable for us because our caravan and tow vehicle make quite a large touring unit. She assured me it was fine.
It wasn't.
We ended up stuck on a corner and unfortunately damaged the brake lights on our caravan. So, if you're arriving with a large caravan, motorhome or other substantial outfit, I'd strongly recommend having the driver or co-pilot walk ahead and check the route rather than relying solely on the instructions from reception.
So, overall: would I stay here again? Probably not.
Was I disappointed? A little.
Did we still have a lovely time exploring the Loire? Absolutely.
For us, this was a perfectly adequate stopover in a fantastic location, but the campsite itself didn't quite live up to what we were hoping for. If you're looking for somewhere to spend a couple of nights while exploring the surrounding area, it does the job. If you're looking for a campsite where you'd happily spend a week or more, I'd probably look elsewhere.

Good campsite for our stop off for 3 nights before heading further south. Close to the little town can either bike or walk. Camping pitches were ok. Some were very large. Close to the supermarket approx 10mins drive you could also bike it. Great for kids the pool and play areas were good. The pub/restaurant... should open earlier it opens at 5pm. The Parc Etang opposite doesn’t open Mondays nor does the site bar/restaurant. The showers and toilets were not private but I suppose the French were not bothered by this. The showers and toilets were clean though, which made up for them being so open you could hear what your toilet neighbour was doing. At one of the smaller toilet blocks the toilets are on one side, the pot wash area next to toilets then the opposite side the sink which didn’t makes sense as people washing up could hear you on the toilet then you had to walk passed them to wash your hands.
Fishing area wasn’t amazing however it was good for kids or those starting the fishing journey. We did catch some fish.
On a Monday a food truck came which varies week by week, the food was amazing when we were there it was some kind of pitta bread with a filling.
We ate from the restaurant on site the food was good we ate pitta and hummus waffles were great.
Little farm on site with goats and chickens.
Would stay here again.
