Very Good site - Late August - September 2016

Overall our stay at Camping Le Colombier can be described as VERY good. Pitch- We stayed in a camper van and had a tent pitched up next door and there was plenty of space. The electrical hook up worked well and there were no problems. This site has something for everyone (shady, sunny, private etc). Showers and toilets - Excellent! The showers are very powerful, they all worked well. Check out the pictures I have posted. The toilets are cleaned every morning and we never had any issues with smells emanating out into the shower area and campsite. There were always more than enough toilet rolls and it was good quality paper. Very clean! Wifi - The wifi is excellent. I watched BBC iPlayer episodes and streamed international football matches throughout my trip with no streaming issues at all. Epicerie- If you are staying for a few days, make sure you place your order for the following day and your croissants can be reserved for you by the man or woman working in the shop. I would recommend this, as sometimes if you are late getting up, all the best croissants could be gone. The epicerie also offers a couple of different varieties of wine, some cheese, beers, soft drinks, papers, crisps, biscuits and a few other bits and pieces. Basically, if you are short of something, the epicerie may well save you a trip to the local village. The cost of goods is, as would be expected, higher than local shops and supermarkets, but that’s to be expected. Washing up area / washing machines / tumble dryers - The washing up area has numerous places to wash up and there is both hot and cold water. Very clean and reasonably well maintained (no dripping taps etc). We did not use the washing machines or tumble dryers, but instructions are detailed on top of the machines. Swimming Pool - Beautiful pool in a great location. There were some insects in the pool, but the campsite is in the middle of a lot of a forest, so what do you expect :) La Creperie - Awful! Give this place a wide berth. Lazy staff that have no idea about decent quality food let alone good quality food. We ate here once, and that was enough. The food was so poor that I have forgotten what I ate. Do not waste your time. The bar - Never went inside, but it did look busy when we passed. Opening times are listed on the door. Kids room / games area / sports activities/ football field / crazy golf - Don't expect too much from the kids and games room. As the pictures show, the place is very tired and has very little for kids to do. There are some table tennis tables and a table football table, a tv with dvd player and a few DVDs but that's about it. All the equipment for the activities can, I believe, be borrowed from the reception. Some of the fixtures are very dated and it is obvious that no cleaning has happened for a long, long time in certain parts of the camp (the kids room, the kids play area and the toilets by the pool), but this campsite is a real gem, and is well worth a visit.
