Our Experts Say
Selected because this very large Castels site offers a
huge range of activities for young and old alike. It is set
in the lush parkland of a beautiful 16th century château
with 3 lakes for fishing or canoeing and its own golf
course. You cannot fail to be impressed by the
magnificent setting and the beauty of the surrounding
grounds. There is an enormous range of on-site activities
and is a perfect spot for an active family both during the
day and in the evening.It is a very busy camp site, as
there are several British tour operators with their own
mobile homes and tents. It is a fabulously vibrant spot
even in the low season and therefore not recommended
for those seeking a quiet French ambiance.
