Wonderful place for a family holiday

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.
