We are a family of 8 who stayed here in a tent August 2022 and had a great experience. First off, the pitch sizes are large, big enough to accommodate our huge 7 man tent with side extension and a day tent plus car. Secondly, the pitches are all very flat and grass (well mostly dusty earth at that time of year) making them perfect for pitching tents. Most if not all of the pitches are very well shaded which is essential in temperatures that sit in the mid 30's in summer. There are statics as well but they tend to get booked up very early. The site is split into two fields of approximately the same size. The main site where the office, bar and swimming pool are located is by far the busier with entertainment laid on at least 3 or 4 nights a week, so if you want a quieter experience you should pitch across the road. The pool is large enough but can get rammed at times. There is an enclosed children's play area at the back of the main field but it's pretty basic. Showers and toilets are clean but get messy by the end of the day owing to the amount of dust generated by the hot weather. Washing up area is new and contains more than enough sinks. The staff were always helpful and accessible and unlike some campsites they are pretty hands-off and let you get on with whatever you enjoy. They are easy going with guests and we had family friends join us for a day and their children use the pool without any issues. The downside to this is that you can get groups of youngsters camping near you and you will have to put up with the noise. It may be an idea for the campsite to locate these groups away from families in one part of the site. Prices were very reasonable, We paid about £50 per night for our pitch (incl electricity and 2 cars). We had a portable fridge with us but the campsite hire out fridge freezers for 5 euros per day. If you're camping a fridge is an absolute essential. There is a cafe on site if you need food in the evenings and a pizza van usually comes on site once a week. Free wifi is available and works well even while streaming, Another positive is a brand new public outdoors sports complex just outside the site which contains gym equipment, tennis court, kids' play area, basketball and football pitches, picnic benches and toilets. The site is 5 mins drive from the nearest Lidl and 10 mins from Carrefour, 15 minutes from Beziers which is worth a visit and nice for walking around in the evenings. Beaches are superb, long stretches of golden sand with flat, shallow and calm sea and never more than 15-30 mins drive. We found the location to be great for exploring nearby places. Barcelona is 3 hours away to the west, Montpellier and Marseille one and two hours drive east respectively. Sete is less than an hour away and a must visit especially in August when the annual boat jousting tournament takes place, not to mention for its beaches and renowned seafood. An hour north east is the city of Nimes which is famous for an amphitheatre that rivals the Colloseum in Rome. The venue hosts concerts and performances throughout the year. If you like hiking and hills, head north from the campsite following the path of the River Orb into the Parc Naturel du Regional Haut Languedoc, an area of outstanding natural beauty. To be fair we spent about half of our stay on site, with day trips and evenings out to most of these places. Criticisms? Not many if I'm honest but I would like to see more than one washing machine per field as you can be waiting for a while to do your laundry if there are people ahead of you. Also, as previously stated I think the campsite would get better reviews if it had a policy of separating groups of youths from families, Also we did experience issues with males using the female toilets. There was nothing we could do but politely remind the intruders that they were in the wrong place. All in all though these glitches didn't detract too much from what was a very memorable holiday. I would recommend this campsite on the grounds of value, hospitality, facilities...
Read moreWe booked this site with pitchup.com with the intention to stay here for 4 nights. ||Both fluent French speakers we met with the owner on arrival, who was very matter of fact and did not explain any details of the campsite or wishing us a nice stay, we can live with that. ||However ‘Mamie’ allows groups of yobs and thugs to stay at this site playing music to 5am on our first night which continued on the second night. They dominate the pool area, no security anyone can enter the site without without question 24/7. There is a real tense atmosphere on site and no security provision. ||Unless your up for rave parties and want to join in serious intoxication and shouting /arguing to the early hours, then this is not the place for you. ||On the plus side it’s a typical tree lined French style campsite which is used by a lot of people in transit. ||If you must stay here then ask for a double glazing company to fit out your caravan with soundproof windows and stay with your van! ||The site is not really cared for, and the maintenance person cannot even manage a bonjour. ||Our advice : don’t stay, after paying in full for 4 nights we...
Read morePeaceful Campsite in a quiet local area, with basic amenities including elec hook up. Pitch was good size and well shaded with trees, staff were happy to put our families in adjoining pitches. Toilets & shower blocks are tired and in need of refurb, hence not 5 stars. Washing areas are clean and never too busy. Shower blocks on each side of the site, but visitors seem to ignore male/female signs when using. Washing machine available for €5.50 which is quite new and ok. Wifi (by the pool area only) is hit and miss, but I wasn't too fussed as we intended as a family break away from technology. Pool was clean and secure to ensure safety. Lifeguard is a bit rude and I think he only spoke French. Please remember to pack your budgie smugglers as no swimming shorts allowed in the pool! Overall a pleasant stay,...
