Vive Chantaloup

Great site, handy for stopover from Caen etc. Lovely staff, great sense of humour. You may need electric extensions (we had to borrow one from reception, willingly supplied at no charge). We had very poor, very slow service in the restaurant, although the food was good when it arrived. This may have been a one off. Great showers, and all immaculately clean. We'll be back.

Another great site

Really good site, pitches of all types from full sun to part shade to full shade! Loads of room, with easy access to water and power everywhere! We were in a woodland pitch which was large and quiet. Toilets etc were always clean and available. Site facilities were good. Would recommend site for all - couples or families. Plenty to do on or off site. Will be back!

Stop over

What an excellent site, the image on the CC website doesn't do it justice, stayed one night whilst travelling south from Calais. Will look to stay again either later this year or most definitely next year but for longer than one night. N.B A long drive (6 hour tow) from Calais, will use caen next time

On Route

We used this site on our way back from the south of France to Calais. Lovely surroundings and very helpful and friendly staff. Had no issue with electric, the pitch was large enough to accommodate our motorhome and we had plenty of space around us. Will certainly go back.

Good Location

2 night stopover on the way south - great location and Le Mans old town is lovely where we had a great meal. Worth a visit. Some issues with electricity supply when we pitched up but resolved following day.

1 Night Stay

Stayed for 1 night as a stop over site. Great site and we will book to stay longer soon. The site is part of a chain of campsites in France called Les Castels, most are either 4 or 5 star rated based around a similar theme of refurbished Chateaux or traditional farmhouses. As per previous comments this site as an unorthodox (or maybe European) approach to pitching your tent or caravan, but the perceived chaos is organised. Although we didn't use the pool it looked great for the kids and the on site shop and bar/restaurant looked great.

BUZZING & HECTIC!

As an 'older' couple who had just spent a week with our family in the Loire Valley, we opted for this site as a stopover on our way home. We wouldn't normally choose to tour in school holiday time, so were prepared for everywhere to be busy. But we did feel a bit 'out of it' as we explored the site, with so many large family groups and families with young children there. We could see that it is a really lovely site, with the unusual layout of many pitches being in 'rings' around the edges of the lawns. It was really packed when we arrived, and I wondered whether I would like being quite so close to neighbours. Some cars and caravans were literally almost touching each other. However, we were taken to a distant spot along a long avenue of tall trees where we had a relatively quiet pitch with its own 'space'. It was a long walk tho' to the sanitary block and washing-up facilities, so we didn't actually bother to use them but kept to our own in our motorhome. Water was very readily obtainable close by, and our electricity supply was faultless. We imagined our grandsons having a whale of a time in the woods and there is certainly a lot of space for children plus organised entertainment and clubs for them. The chateau itself is delightful, and the staff even more so. We had the best welcome ever, I think. Much Gallic charm! There is a lovely bar and terrace area, and a good little restaurant with a lot of covered outside space as well. We visited Le Mans and the old Plantagenet City which is really beautiful, but the weather was very variable and perhaps coloured our overall experience. We did get to the Le Mans 24 Hour Circuit Museum which was worth every cent. It's fantastic (if you like cars, which I do now!). Overall, a beautiful site, well-maintained and run by a competent and caring family (who also own the chateau). But I wouldn't personally go at the same time again - I'm sure it would be a very different experience in a quieter season.

Superb site should've stayed longer

This is a truly superb site. From the service when you arrive which has been some of the friendliest and informative we've had anywhere, to the spacious pitches facing towards the Chateau, to the wonderful surrounding countryside this site has something for everyone. Very attractive location that wasn't too busy in early July. Great activities for the kids and lovely pool. Extensive cycling nearby, for which the site can provide some good maps. So much to do, why did we only book as a stop over on the way home for 2 nights. There will definitely be a next time as the area seems to offer loads to do. Maybe Le Mans 24 hours - perhaps

Great site, ideal after leaving Caen for the south

The site is well positioned after completing the Portsmouth/Caen daytime ferry crossing. Opening the week prior to the Le Mans 24hr (their busiest week) not all of the facilities are open. While the pool (excellent) and bar are open, the shop and restaurant open later in the week. As far as the pitches are concerned everyone gathers around large grassed areas, no hedges or dividing screens here. Certainly recommended for short stays but book early if you are arriving in Le Mans week.

Beautiful site

We stayed here again on our way to the Dordogne. It's a lovely site where you receive the best welcome that we've ever received on any site - UK or France. The facilities are excellent and the pitches are very big. You can sit on the chateau terrace and enjoy a drink from the bar. We noticed, yet again that more improvements had been made - it's seems this is done every year. We will return.
