Water taxi was definitely there in July 2006, can't remember wheter it was there in 2005. I think not, my daughter thinks it was.

Never had a problem with traffic other than the day the Tour de France went past. But we were there in mid July before the main holiday season.

The Go Kart place was annoying - I'd forgotten about that, but we just got used to it. It seemed to be worse at weekends, but we were only there there for a week each time.

The campsite did a book with all the local attractions, shops etc in (free) and in the back was a really good map of the local area. We just tore the map out and used that all the time - very useful. The book wasn't great as mainly adverts, but the map was superb.

I don't usually like recommending sites as there is a lot of personal taste and I would hate to recommend someone to go somewhere for their main holiday and them not like it, so I am really glad you had a good time. Look out for the christmas card from them - a nice touch I think!!

Pitches are quite large - we had a cabanon antigua when we went and we fitted on fine, although I think we would have needed a larger pitch for the stratos. Like most campsites the pitches vary. We had the same pitch both years we were there.

The pitches are grassy, but at the end of August you must be prepared for them to be dry and dusty if the weather has been good (we wne around Bastille Day). The pitches are delimited by bushes and there are drip hoses running round the site which water these bushes.

Very few of the pitches back onto the road. Go kart noise was mainly at weekends when we were there and it was a dull drone in the background.

The showers and toilets were always clean and plenty of hot water. You do need to provide your own toilet paper as it is a really weird system - like a stack of tissues in a dispenser quite high on a wall OUTSIDE the toilets!!!! These quickly ran out, so just easier to take your own.

Not many English on site but my daughter really enjoyed it (she was 16/17) and usually likes to meet some English but the site was so nice she wasn't bothered. We tend to keep ourselves to ourselves anyway.
