We stayed one week at the Slow Village with two children and our stay was absolutely wonderful. The staff (at the reception and the restaurant) is extremely friendly and helpful, the caban was exactly as displayed on the pictures and very clean. The localisation is fabulous: view of the lake from the... restaurant and numerous activities in the area (bike tours, paddel on the lake, dune du pilat etc). Would highly recommend!

We stayed for 10 days at this well run site. Camping with bells and whistles set in a beautiful pine forest overlooking the lake. Very friendly staff who go out of their way to help and answer any questions. Good pizzas and a well run shop. Our cabin was a bit tired which I put down to being end of season... - shower was a little broken, loo seat kept coming off, glasses missing etc. But the cabin itself and in particular the lovely terrace was gorgeous and we very much enjoyed sitting and looking at the sunrise/sunset from our slightly elevated spot on the hill. The main issue for me was the entertainment - which was good - but at least every other day there was music at the bar which sometimes went on until 2am. The aqua park then would start up with Disney theme tunes from 9am. So there wasn’t much time for quiet contemplation or very good night’s sleep. Its a shame as I would really recommend this place as fantastic to go to with family and friends but be prepared for a few sleepless nights.

We were seeking a rural natural luxury (Glamping) experience if thats possible!
We stayed in a log cabin, very snug, I'm 6ft1" and my feet hung over the bed, the fitting and fixtures are cheap, the blinds do not stop the light coming in.
We reported a couple of fault in the room and they were ignored.
I... suspect we stayed just after they opened but in my view, you are either open or closed , they seemed to offer only some of the facilities that were advertised.

We actually left a day early and headed for Ill de re , what a difference! overall I would say a poor experience,

We had a cabane for 4 people. It is small but perfectly adequate. Think of it as camping in a very well equipped beach hut... quite different to our usual haunt but a great change. 2 bedrooms (1 mezzanine and one ground floor), shower room with toilet and a small living area with basic kitchen facilities.... We also had some quite private outside space (I am not sure they are all as private).

Sports facilities are excellent. Paddle tennis, basketball/football court, volley ball court and petanque.

Location is just opposite the really nice lake beach with loads going on (inflatable water park, bungee trampoline, nice restaurants and bars). Havent hired bicycles yet but that is another option we want to explore and is done so from reception. Never an issue parking our hire car (each cabane has a space in the on site bcar park). Although it wasnt far to walk to the cabane we had a golf cart take us and our luggage.

Restaurant and bar has a great aspect overlooking the lake. The food and drink in the restaurant and bar are very good, with very friendly staff.

Down one star because the half board (demi pension) is not worth it in our view. 40 euros per adult per day gets you a much better selection for breakfast and dinner in the on site and surrounding restaurants. Half board breakfast is basic continental (no eggs, and I like eggs in the morning !) and dinner on our first night was a couple of basic choices, although house wine was included. We did ask for our money back for the remaining 6 days half board and they did so without an issue. All the staff are very helpful and attentive.

We travelled to Arcachon (~25 mins by car) on a cloudy day and that was a great excursion with lots of nice restaurants and shops. The Dune de pyla (Europes largest sand dune) is in the way but it was so busy when we wanted to go we decided to do a separate outing.

No aircon (as expected) so sleep was not great for me as I like it cool and we went in the height of Summer.

je souhaite revenir sur l'avis de Bertrand J. du mois d'août qui me parait complètement délirant et très loin de la réalité concernant le Slow village.

Je suis responsable de la Communication d'une entreprise de 1200 collaborateurs répartis sur tout le territoire Français. Nous avons décidé... il y peu d'organiser des forums collaboratifs regroupant l'ensemble de nos salariés.

Nous avons été séduits par la proposition et l'approche de la Direction du Slow Village : Privatiser tout le village et de mettre en place un évènementiel de très haut gamme. Interpellé par leur audace, nous avons donc décidé de travailler avec eux.

Concrètement nous avons réalisé 3 sessions de 2 jours, avec près de 350 participants sur chaque date. Les participants venaient de toute la France et étaient pris en charge par des chauffeurs privés, dès leur arrivée à la gare ou à l'aéroport de Bordeaux. Ils étaient ensuite conduits au Slow Village qui pour l'évènement avait été transformé en station de ski... C'était complètement délirant : Une piste de ski éphémère, des chalets avec des animations, une décoration extraordinaire de tout le site... Dès leur arrivée les participants en ont pris plein les yeux...

Nous avions pendant la journée des réunions de travail collectif pour lesquels le Slow avait fait monter un immense barnum.

En soirée, c'est une multitude de surprises et d'animations qui étaient mises en place pour détendre les participants et apporter le cotés festif à nos sessions de travail collaboratif.

Je tiens à souligner le professionnalisme de la Direction et des équipes du Slow Village. Tous les petits problèmes techniques ou organisationnels ont été pris en charge et réglés avec un grand professionnalisme et les participants étaient ravis de leur séjour.

Nous avons été plus que satisfait de ces opérations évènementielles et nous recommandons vivement le Slow Village aux entreprises ou aux particuliers cherchant un site atypique et surtout différent des site évènementiels habituels.

MERCI encore au Slow pour ces moments magiques !!!
