Chantepie
Visited late June. Have been a few times before in previous years. Site is in a fabulous location and the reception is excellent. Stayed for a week and has reasonable weather. France had just had the worst June for some time. The site has plenty of facilities for everyone and the atmosphere is good around the site. Having been before we noticed that the general tidiness and upkeep had deteriorated quite a bit since ownership was changed for this season. Out is the employment of capable disabled staff and well kept hedges, trees and grass and in was less visible staff, long grass, overgrown trees and bushes. Finding the water supply on the pitch was quite a challenge, and trimming back to get to it was necessary. Overall it made a good site look a little shabby. The bin area which is well enclosed with bushes and fences contained many overflowing bins for a number of days, fine when they were emptied after several days, unfortunately in the interim added to the feeling of neglect. The owners are keen to keep customers engaged, but should balance this with focus on the site appearance. It's a comparatively expensive site so that creates an expectation.....
