Why stay here ...

Set in the Forêt d’Orient Regional Park and 100m from a large lake, this site is good for family stays and as a stopover when travelling south. The facilities are well-maintained, and there’s a good pizza restaurant opposite the site entrance.

Children will enjoy the pool complex with its paddling area and slides and evening entertainment is put on during high season. There’s also a sailing school on the lake, and pedaloes and kayaks are available for use.

The area is perfect for keen walkers and cyclists, with many routes traversing the park. Troyes is nearby and has an impressive, Gothic-style cathedral with fine stained glass windows and exterior carvings, and some intriguing museums.

Not really our cup of tea

This site fitted the bill for timing our journey from Macon to Calais and as a CC European site, booked an overnight stay. It is difficult to give the place a great rating because it just wasn't our sort of place. I didn't do enough research (thinking that a family... Show more

Big and busy

Despite it's excellent location for an overnight stop we found that many campers were staying longer and taking a holiday here. Very well run, big, busy site with excellent facilities for families. Just watch out for mosquitoes as soon as the sun sets, and don't go to the lake at... Show more

MSW Holiday 2023

Found this site a bit too close to other people and not much privacy, felt a bit hemmed in. The outside location was very beautiful and water was very clean and a part was used for dogs which my two choc labs loved.

This is a nice enough site in a good location, but avoid weekends when it gets incredibly busy with day visitors to the lake. We stopped here overnight on our way home from the south and whilst on the face of it everything was fine, we found it to be a... Show more

Really good shower/toilets, very clean and modern. Small useful shop and restaurant. Cycled round part of lake and... Show more
