July 2019 - full and honest review
I wanted to leave a review after reading so many contrasting ones about this site.
We are a family of 5, 2 adults, a 7 and two five year olds. We decided to pitch in the tree covered area to the right of the site to get shade as it was so hot when we arrived it was a good size pitch and pleasant, mainly tents in this area. You need to make sure you have a long electric cable 25m ideally for some pitches. The main pitch area did seem very cramped and little shade and I’m glad we asked to move it suited us better. I think you could do with a motor mover in the main area. The staff and reception area are very good. The bar is basic, hot and cold drinks and ice creams. There is no food offered except takeaway vans that come every night 5-10pm offering food such as roast chickens, pizza and curry on one night we didn’t use them.
The pool is good area, there is indoor and outdoor pools, slides which are quite good, and a toddler area open 10-7 each day.
The toilets and showers in our pitch area were not spotless but they were clean and always had paper available. There are a few cracks in the walls and plenty of cobwebs about but the parts you are actually using are clean.
They have WiFi but it’s to pay for and only available for one devise unless you buy a family package. We didn’t bother so didn’t notice the price.
There is a football/basket ball pitch which makes the site noisy until 11pm when the lights go out and there are many French guys playing boules until late as well so lively but interesting in the evening. There is also a playground suitable for up to about 10-11 years and ping pong tables. There is a bouncy castle but it’s in a covered area which makes it as hot as hell if it’s anything over 22 degrees!
The walk to the beach is only about 3 minutes and it’s a lovely shore line beach accommodating maybe only 40-50 people when the tide is out, there is a toilet and shower but is very basic. It’s a lovely place to spend the day or especially evening after dinner, lots of the locals come down for a swim late on.
We really enjoyed our stay and I would consider going back mainly due to the tree covered pitch, the beach and the slides for the kids. It’s also well placed for visiting Vannes and the coast line and it’s islands. If you want 5 star, spotless high functioning site with plenty of like minded British folk you are not going to get this here.
P.S the reception closes 12.30-2.30 so don’t arrive then like most people seem to and sit and wait in their cars looking irritated.
