This small family run site is only 200 metres from the attractive village of Vaux sur Mer, perfect for the market and eating out. It’s quiet in low season, becoming livelier in the summer months when it offers a kids’ club and evening entertainment. Nauzan Plage is 1km away and is a sheltered cove that provides a safe place for children to play.
The staff are pleasant and helpful, and keep the facilities clean throughout the season. Although limited, they include a shop and restaurant and provisions can be found in nearby Vaux-sur-Mer. It’s worth noting that although the campsite allows dogs, the local beaches do not.
There’s a daily market at Vaux-sur-Mer, which is a lovely place to pick up food or simply stroll around. Further on are Royan and the Planet Exotica Zoo, both of which make for a good day out. Those wishing to travel further afield can visit the Cognac vineyards, an hour’s drive from the site.

Firstly, the staff at the campsite do not speak any English at all. Secondly, the campsite does not provide any toilet roll in any of the sanitary blocks, so do not get caught out (no pun intended) We stayed here for 7 nights in mid June and it was a very quiet... Show more

Lovely campsite with friendly welcome laid on by the hosts. This was in French but we got most of it. Felt that the pictures were a bit misleading - beach is about 15 min walk. Also in middle of local houses, although this also means that its only... Show more

Stayed here for 11 night in August. Great clean facilities. Regular rubbish collections. Friendly helpful staff. Close to village, park, beach, tourist office (with free wifi). Coast path to Royan is lovely. Visits to Saintes, Cognac, Rochefort and Chateau Corboun well worth it. Recommended. Will definitely be returning.
