Client reviews : Pitch with drainage (in the forest) + 16A electricity

General information :

Wir waren zwar nur eine Nacht hier, haben den Aufenthalt in der Nachsaison aber sehr genossen. Tolle naturnahe Location auf hohem Niveau. Sehr nettes Personal und der Bäcker am Morgen ist auch Klasse.

Accommodation review :

Der Platz unter dem riesigen Baum.

General information :

De uitstraling van de camping is heel fijn. Ruim, chique, Franse vibe die je van een camping hoopt. Wij stonden op de XL plekken, heerlijk groot en genoeg schaduw. Ook rustig 's avonds en 's nachts.

GEEN OPBLAASBARE DINGEN IN HET ZWEMBAD TOESTAAN!Zou een idee kunnen zijn om dat bij de inschrijving te vermelden. Het is een zwembad zonder toezicht, zoals ook staat aangegeven. Dat betekent dat ouders zelf verantwoordelijk zijn, maar die blazen doodleuk grote krokodillen, flamingo's, eenhoorns op voor hun 'prinsjes en prinsesjes'. Je moest bijna zeggen 'vinden jullie het goed als ik hier ook zwem!?' Soms even een bezoekje van de leiding van de camping om mensen aan te spreken, helpt. Ook minderjarige kinderen die zonder ouders behoorlijk aan het klieren waren konden ongestoord hun gang gaan!

Accommodation review :

The whole campsite and how it is laid out is lovely.

General information :

Such a beautiful site, staff are so friendly and welcoming. Lots of nice things to do on the cheateau grounds. We took part in the quiz night, it was so much fun and they make everyone feel included

as it was so hot, the pool was extremely busy but this is not the sites fault.

Accommodation review :

lovely pitch in the woodland, with electrity and water.

General information :

Wat een mooie en sfeervolle camping! Prachtig hoe alles in en rond het chateau is gesitueerd. Veel te kort voor 1 nachtje dus we gaan een keer terug!

Accommodation review :

Zeer grote staanplaats mooi in het bos. Verzorgd terrein

Dat de hond van de buren op onze plek had gepoept (en dat was dus niet opgeruimd)

General information :

Mooie ruime plek in het bos We hadden een wateraansluiting en stroom Het was tijdens ons verblijf erg warm maar we hadden op onze plek de hele dag wel ergens schaduw Ook fijn want we waren met hond Bij de camping nog mooie gelegenheid om een ommetje te maken met de hond We waren erg laat voor het restaurant maar dat was abaoluut geen probleem, we weren alsnog vriendijk geholpen Romantische setting rondom kasteel Relaxde uitstraling

Fijne rustige plek

General information :

We enjoyed our short stay here as a stopover on our way to Dordogne. We had a nice spot in the Bois area which felt very peaceful and the facilities were clean. The bakery visit each morning was appreciated. The staff were always friendly and helpful. We’d recommend.

Accommodation review :

Quiet and spacious

General information :

We came to this site (for second time) after a stay at another 'busier' site. It was nice to have an evening sitting on the terrace for a drink without a disco or 'entertainment' intruding. the site has wooded and open areas to choose from - we went wooded this time, but it was maybe a bit too quiet where we were. The overall layout of the site is good, with space to relax and there were some things going on if you wanted to join in - fright night sounded like it was a hit judging by the screams coming from the woods.

There is quite a distance between some pitches and the toilet / shower blocks. We only used the main blocks but they could do with a bit of modernisation - although they were well maintained. The shop is very basic (a few essentials only really) and has short opening hours - does what it needs but don't rely on it for anything other than bare minimum.

Accommodation review :

Pretty level pitch and private. Lots of birds which was nice. Good pitch.

Weirdly there were some 'holes' in the pitch, which looked like a previous occupant had been digging (a dog maybe?). Although we are in a campervan we do tend to use the site facilities for toilets / washing up etc and we found it was quite a way back and forth - good for our step count though.

General information :

We love your site! Its tranquil, and always gives us some time to chill out and enjoy ourselves.

Some easier routes from the woodland pitches to the services please - the route we used last year has been removed! Also, more parasols around the pool would be great :-) Limited free wifi for the entire day would be great, not to stream but to just use for general data.

Accommodation review :

Stayed on the same pitch last year, and we'd stay again on the same!

Limited wifi, shop had hardly anything in it and was closed for long periods, takeaway could be more varied (it used to be better, selling cooked chckens etc).

General information :

Le cadre harmonieux: aménagement avec soins avec des beaux matériaux sans dénaturer le site. La possibilité de choisir son "mode de camping" La gestion des déchêts L'aimabilité et le sourire du personnel

Le restaurant: personnel aimable et courtois mais nourriture de cantine.

Accommodation review :

le calme et la beauté de la forêt avec la luminosité d'un espace ouvert

General information :

We stayed for 2 nights on our way to the ferry. We really enjoyed. Ate at the restaurant and really chilled out. Will definitely stay again

Drainage was higher than the van as pitch was uneven so we could not use.

Accommodation review :

Being in the forest

Close to other campers with noisy kids

General information :

großzügige Stellplätze auf einem traumhaften Anwesen, selbst im Juli nur von wenigen Campern belegt, was etwas traurig und unverständlich ist

Accommodation review :

Tolle, ruhige Lage im Wald

hellere Lampen an den Wegen installieren, technische WLAN Probleme an unsrerem Stellplatz (Empfang sehr gut, aber Einwahl meist nicht möglich, da keine IP zugeweisen wurde)

General information :

Mooie entourage, opvallend prettige ontvangst door uitleg, en meerijden naar de plek, prachtige bossen in WOOD.

Chemisch toilet onhandige positie, en onhandige spoel douche. Bediening van restaurant overbelast, waardoor het proces suboptimaal verloopt. Kwaliteit van het eten matig (pizzas in ons geval). 1 babystoel voor het restaurant bleek te weinig; naast ontbrekende riempjes, is de stoel slecht schoongemaakt ook (zelf met alcohol afgenomen kwam er veel troep vanaf).

Accommodation review :

Mooie kampeerplek. Veel molshopen.

Veel molshopen en zand. Afvoer helaas 20 cm boven de grond gelegen, dus feitelijk niet te gebruiken.

General information :

Schöne Anlage, super Service!

Accommodation review :

Super ruhig gelegen, grosse Plätze.

General information :

What an amazing site. Admittedly we had lovely weather but the surrounding grounds are spectacular. The swimming was just the right size, the restaurant was staffed by lovely people and we were also able to wash some clothes. Excellent.

My wife is celiac and more gluten free and vegetarian options at the restaurant would have been welcome.

Accommodation review :

I was a bit worried the in the forest might mean a bit dark but it was brilliant to have a bit of shade dappled through the mature trees.

General information :

Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal, schöner und sehr ruhiger Stellplatz in parkähnlicher Umgebung

Alles, de ruime plek op een heerlijk groot grasveld, voldoende schaduw, het zwembad, de rust, het restaurant en de erg vriendelijke eigenaren! Voor onze hond een paradijs!

Geen!

Accommodation review :

We hadden een andere plek aan de rand van een van de grote grasvelden gekozen. Mooi uitzicht op het chateau.

Dat we niet langer konden blijven!

General information :

Excellent sized pitches, the reception was friendly and efficient. The restaurant was very good, quality food at reasonable prices. Pool area very relaxing.

Accommodation review :

Pitch was in Wood area, it was good sized, with electric, water and drainage. We requested sunny pitch and was not let down, sunny area and also shaded areas, spot on.

Probably because early season but grass and hedges on pitch and pathways between pitches and site facilities could have done with trimmings.

General information :

It is a beautiful site with a wide choice of lovely, well sized, private pitches or large open areas. The staff are all extremely helpful and the facilities are second to none. Valerie helped us sort our dogs AHC for our return to UK which made the process really easy. Highly recommend and we will be returning next year.

Accommodation review :

Excellent

No

General information :

Lovely quiet site & fabulous owners who were really accommodating for anything we needed :) Lovely Pool, nice little bar and terrace area

Greater choice of food options in restaurant

Accommodation review :

Lovely pitch

Unfortunately some pitches were out of use due to water logging so we didn’t have much choice of pitch .. although our one was under a large shady tree it was fine

General information :

Calm and quiet

Hard surface on the little lanes to the pitches

Meer en modernere sanitaire voorzieningen aanbrengen

Accommodation review :

grote plaats met vodoende stroom en water voorziening

Toiletten spoelen erg slecht door en niet voldoende voor zo.n aanrtal plaatsen

General information :

A very warm welcome at this beautifully maintained site. The Dream Team looked after us brilliantly and Valerie was especially kind. Cannot recommend enough and all the people who we met who have been returning year after year cannot be wrong.

Accommodation review :

All we could ask for lovely and private

Noisy French in cabins

General information :

I love being camped in the woods area - quiet, peaceful, green and with electricity, water and drainage - extremely convenient. We enjoyed several walks on the various paths around the site.

Closing at the end of August. We never holiday until September - once France has gone back to work - but you're never open. But my thanks to Valerie for allowing us to stay on the extra night. We would have used the restaurant more, but at the end of the season, they were running the menu down and not all dishes were available.

Accommodation review :

Large pitch, with all the conveniences.

General information :

The staff were just absolutely wonderful - cheerful and helpful and accommodating. There was lots to do and the site is so varied - even the chicken (we called her Chicky) was lovely to sit and watch!

It would be brilliant if there was somewhere to buy snacks through the day, such as chips or sandwiches. We also found that the little footpath going into our pitch (woods 5) was a bit annoying and felt a bit public! But otherwise we had just a wonderful time and are so grateful!

Accommodation review :

Spacious, shady

Lots of brambles, we trimmed a few from the paths! But as expected for this time of year in a woodland pitch!

General information :

The staff were very friendly and helpful, particularly at reception and in the restaurant. The setting was delightful. The food quality was good.

Our pitch (Wood 5) had a path running through it so we frequently had people walking through ... this spoiled our stay. The pathways throught the woods had brambles and acacia which needed cutting back. The acacia (thorns) were particularly dangerous for young children. The outside restaurant area was tired looking and the ground was very dirty and dusty - a refurb would be welcome. On our way out we stopped at the motorhome waste disposal point but found we were unable to empty the WC cassette.

Accommodation review :

Apart from the pathway, the pitch would have otherwise been secluded. The EHU, water and drain were good.

The pathway already mentioned and the area was rather worn down to sand and dirt. Other pitches in the woods (like the one in the picture here) enjoyed a more pleasant grass surface.

General information :

Used as a stop over for 2 nights but genuinely upset we didn't book in for longer... The site is lovely, staff really helpful, and the kids enjoyed the pool and park. We never had time to explore outside the site. We definitely recommend this site to others with or without family

Accommodation review :

Pitch was ideal; electric, water and waste right beside us

General information :

Well spaced out campsite with great bar and restaurant.

Accommodation review :

Electric supply and water ok.

Our pitch included the walkthrough to reception which made privacy not very good.

General information :

Die Stellplätze und das ganze Anwesen sind wunderschön! Auch die sanitären Anlagen sind sauber und ordentlich. Wir kommen hier gerne wieder her.

Die Küche des Restaurants hat uns überhaupt nicht überzeugt. Die Entenbrust war kalt und zehn und die grünen Bohnen waren ebenfalls kalt. Selbst nach der Korrektur war es nicht viel besser. Vermutlich hat man alles nur kurz in eine Mikrowelle gestellt, was das Ganze eher verschlechterte.! Obwohl ich fast alles zurückgehen ließ, musste ich den kompletten Preis bezahlen. Es gab kein Entgegenkommen noch nicht einmal mit einem Nachtisch. Ich kann das Restaurant tatsächlich nicht empfehlen. Schade eigentlich denn alles andere ringsrum ist unglaublich schön!

Accommodation review :

Das ganze Ambiente ist wunderschön. Jeder Stellplatz hat seine Reize.

Für die Stellplätze habe ich keine Verbesserungsvorschläge. Wir waren rund um zufrieden.

General information :

Het is echt een familiecamping met met name engelse en nederlandse gezinnen. Er is veel te doen en het personeel is werkelijk perfect! Voor iets meer rust hebben we voor het tweede jaar in het Bois of Wood gestaan. Iets verder lopen naar de toiletten.

Het zwembad is wel vol en druk. Er zou een kleiner toiletgebouw in Bois of Wood bij kunnen. Dat scheelt lopen.

Accommodation review :

Erg ruim en mooi. Geregeld schaduw

Beetje ver lopen van toiletgebouw

General information :

Plaats in woods gedeelte erg ruim, rustig. Eigen afvoer / water was comfortabel

Sanitair klein, en niet schoon - schimmel kitwerk en vaak defecte bril. Ook tevee viezigheid voor kleine kinderen

Accommodation review :

Topplek, ruim en rustig gelegen - eigen water / afvoer

Veel doorloop van reizigers voor 1 nacht

Path and people waking through our pitch

General information :

Conveniently located to the Le Mans racetrack and museum. Le Mans city is definitely worth a visit

Accommodation review :

Everything ready and available (chairs, table, BBQ, etc.)

The campsite is so vast that, depending on your location, you might need to walk a bit to wash dishes, shower, etc.

General information :

De hele sfeer op de camping, aardig behulpzaam personeel

Accommodation review :

Net iets rustiger als op de velden, meer privacy daardoor. Grote mooie plekken in het bos, mooi vlak.

General information :

What a wonderful site! Full of character and charm. Generous size pitches (ours had all services) and loads of space on the site even when full. Showers/toilets always clean and available. Lovely bar terrace area, takeaway pizzas were delicious. Couldn't fault any of the young staff. Always had a smile and very helpful. Well done Les Castels, keep doing what you're doing!

The small shop could be better stocked but large supermarket only 10mins drive.

Accommodation review :

Good size pitch

It rained every day!

General information :

Such a peaceful, well run campsite, we stayed on a pitch in type woods.

Accommodation review :

Peaceful

General information :

Wir haben auf unserer Reise in die Bretagne hier kurz Halt gemacht und übernachtet. Der Campingplatz ist sehr malerisch gelegen und hat schöne Stellplätze.

Die WC‘s waren zum Teil mehrfach verstopft, wohl weil nicht richtig beschildert war, dass kein Papier heruntergespült werden sollte.

Accommodation review :

Sehr grün, viele Bäume, ruhig.

Eventuell weitere Sanitäranlagen in der Nähe?

General information :

Nice site in good location with excellent facilities

Accommodation review :

General information :

All of it, great eatery

Accommodation review :

General information :

Once again, a peaceful stay at our favourite site. Super friendly staff, chilled environment and a great pitch (in the wooded area).

On site restaurant, which we ate in for the first time, had a rude lady who behaved sooo differently to the rest of the folks on site that it sort of ruined our meal.

Accommodation review :

Great size, some good tree cover.

Surface condition (sandy, so a bit unstable).

General information :

Pool was lovely. Site well maintained.

Family shower was cold. The paths from the wooded pitches to facilities have no lights.

The paths to get to the main facilities were dark

General information :

Ambiente, Grosszügikeit der Stellplätze, Personal sehr freundlich, sehr schöne Bar/Terrasse, wunderschöne Parkanlage

Restaurant / Geschäft braucht Verbesserung. Sortiment im Geschäft sehr schlecht, Speisekarte sehr basic, könnte sehr viel besser sein! Kein Fahrradverleih.

Accommodation review :

War uns zu einsam, haben zu „Verger 1“ gewechselt!

Mehr Wasserabschlüsse

General information :

Zeer grote standplaats in het bos midden in de rust en de natuur

Jammer dat er geen echt restaurant was. Buiten eten onder het zeil van een tent heeft wel zijn charmes, doch kan je niet echt een restaurant noemen. Eten was wel verzorgd en lekker, doch met beperkte keuze.

Accommodation review :

De rust en ruimte in het Wild gebied.

Wat ver van het sanitair gedeelte.

General information :

The pitches are generous, and the hosts are helpful and friendly. We have stayed several times at this campsite and it never fails to restore us.

Accommodation review :

It was peaceful although a bit of a trek to the toilets. Lovely natural shade.

General information :

First time staying really really like it, going to be my first choice for the future.

The meal on the Sunday, for 28 euro there was simply not enough food. All the food i.e. the roast pig was very nice just not enough.

Accommodation review :

Just a lovely location, in the woods and all service close by.

General information :

Brilliant campsite.. now could never go back to camping at the circuit

getting expensive

Accommodation review :

nice quiet area

not a straight to the toilets

General information :

We only had a brief stay but it was a beautiful site, very clean and everyone was very friendly. We would have loved to stay longer.

Accommodation review :

Spacious and tranquil spot

General information :

Die Rezeption war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, das Ambiente insgesamt ist außergewöhnlich und der Pool bei Hitze sehr gut.

Die WC und Waschanlagen sind weit unter den angegebenen 4,5 Sternen! Das Wasser bei den Geschirrspülen wird maximal lauwarm, eine vernünftige Reinigung ist damit nicht möglich, am WC gibt es überhaupt nur Kaltwasser, in den Waschräumen dafür keine Seife und keine Möglichkeit zum Abtrocknen. Ein weiteres Ärgernis sind die andauernd bellenden Hunde von einigen Gästen.

Accommodation review :

Die gute Erreichbarkeit von Le Mans

Die Waschräume renovieren und hundefreie Platzzone schaffen, bzw. problematische Hundebesitzer nicht zulassen.

Recycling of rubbish was not found ?

Accommodation review :

Size of pitch good

Could have been better tended too as the grass and bushes were a little long and overgrown in places !

General information :

The surroundings are beautiful, the pool and children's play areas were wonderful for our kids, the pitch was large and convenient for amenities. We loved the bar and sitting out under the canopy playing games with our children. The atmosphere at the bar area was lovely and we met lots of lovely fellow campers. The reception staff we extremely friendly.

We would have scored this campsite so much better but sadly we were very disturbed by noisy neighbours in the cabins. The large group played amplified music through the day which made our pitch not relaxing at all. At night they partied and made so much noise our children were left on years unable to sleep and the owners could not control it at all. On out final night they were partying til 4:30/5am. IT ruined what was an amazing campsite as we were not rested at all. I guess we were unlucky, I hope so for other campers sake as this is a super expensive site and not what you expect.

Accommodation review :

Large, flat, private, very natural and close to amenities

Sadly the noise from the cabins was terrible and made the cost a bitter pill to swallow, had we not prepaid we would have refused to pay for it.

General information :

The spacious campsite and bar and facilities. Very peaceful even during the Le Mans week.

The restaurant could be a bit better but the staff are lovely

Accommodation review :
