Why stay here ...

Le Col Vert is a large site located on the shores of Lac de Léon and bordering a nature reserve. In low season it’s a peaceful place to relax, while in high season it’s a lively site that’s popular with families. The lake is clean and warm, making it perfect for swimming and water sports, and there’s a small farm where children can meet various animals.

The well-stocked onsite shop provides fresh bread each morning, and during the summer a free shuttle bus runs to the beach and to the market at Léon.

The site has lots to entertain families, but those wishing to explore the local area will find some lovely walking and cycling trails along the River Courant d’Huchet, and the resorts of Bayonne and Biarritz are just over an hour’s drive.

Disappointing

Stayed in our motorhome for 4 nights in June 2024. Very big site with lots of statics. No atmosphere. No perimeter fence so anyone could come and go. Lots of noise late into the night - 1am. Not always children, most inconsiderate adults. Very well stocked shop onsite and nice... Show more

NOT motorhome friendly

This site is NOT motorhome friendly. There was hardly any information given when booking in, even basic info like the location of the taps for fresh water, grey water drainage & chemical toilet drainage. We were just given a map which needed a magnifying glass to read even with reading... Show more

The swimming pool was also very good although could be a bit crowded at times. Plenty of activities and evening entertainment to keep everyone... Show more

We stayed here for 3 nights at the end of August and it was a delight. There were, initially, a few problems with the 3amp then the 6amp - until finally we bought the 10 amp - which didn't cost that much more. We had a standard pitch fairly near... Show more
