Nice site but needs a facelift.
Welcome on arrival. Very good
Good flat level pitch on grassy area close to amenities and good size. Good view of the site and near to the river Cher
FACILITIES
Toilet and shower block- these were the same as I remembered 4 years ago. Clean and maintained but need upgrading
Washing up area- as above . Lots of hot water and kept clean but a lot of “chips” on the draining areas.
Laundry area.- as per the washing up
Fresh water- easily available
Waste water- drains around the toilet blocks but not easy to empty grey waste from our waste containers. Okay if you have a bucket
Chemical waste.- available at the rear of the toilet blocks
Bar- bar not used but was available and lots of people using it
Restaurant- seemed to be very popular. Basic menu but we felt that the prices were a bit steep
Pool- not used but it certainly looked cleaner than last time we were here.
Entertainment- no entertainment
LOCATION
Supermarkets- an excellent Leclerc Supermarket near Amboise some 12 miles away but a very good Intermarche at Blere 3 miles away. Aldi at Blere was overpriced and certainly limited choice.
Attractions- Lots to see and do in the area. We had visited Chenonceau previously . Some pretty towns and villages with plenty of chateaus and vineyards. Great area for cycling and relatively flat. Large city of Tours not far away. Amboies is worth a visit as is Loches
Petrol/diesel- at the local supermarkets
This site is living on its past reputation. When we last visited I commented that it needed a facelift and money needed to be spent on upgrading facilities. Apparently, the new owners took over in April this year from the previous British owners. It is in a good location and perhaps the nesw owners should be given a chance to see what they can do.
I would recommend it but hopefully new the owners will give it a new lease of life.
3 star is probably the right rating at present.
