Hi, we have just had a two night stay at Les 4 Vents en route to the Dordogne.  I have to say the campsite was fantastic, the pitches were great, large with plenty of space for the kids to play bat and ball, hand stands and carts wheels (which drove me bloody mad!!!!)

The pool area was lovely.  There was no seating around the pool but great if you are just happy laying on your towel.

There is no restaurant on site but they have a take out van that does decent food and also serves beer and wine.  The lady on reception told us the food was really poor last year so for this year have brought in outside caterers. There are also outside table and chairs. For breakfast a baker comes on site for a few hours each morning.

Disneyland is about 15 minutes away and is very easy to find.  The reception holds information and sells tickets on Disney.  This year we got the best deal booking via disney on the internet (15% off the price of a one day pass, buying two one day passes was cheaper than buying a two day pass).

I would really recommend this campsite and i know it is really popular within the forum.

We live in West Yorkshire and took the Dover Dunkerque crossing.  The drive was'nt bad at all and thats having a 5 and 10 year old in the back, with no DVD player or sat nav.  On just leaving Halifax the fuse in the cigarette lighter blew and we did nt find out how to change it till we reached the campsite.  The DVD player finally worked but the sat nav packed in.  Let me tell you having two young children driving 15 hours over a few days i know which one of the two i wanted to work!!!!!!!!!!!! We reverted to the good old map of France and made my journey as passenger fly by (and im a fantastic map reader now!!!!)

Let me know what you choose, Danielle

hi i am staying here in two weeks....so excited...

is there a bus near by to get the bus to disney and how much are the tickets if you buy them on site compared to buying them here?

thanks

The pool was very cold at first as said before but you soon got used to it.  The other thing was i didnt want to swim but just watch the kids in my normal clothes but the sensors set off the showers on entry and i got wet!!!

There is no childrens area of the pool and my  ten and five year old could'nt stand up.  There is some steps which they can play around and stand on.Please dont let the pool depth worry you if non swimmers have arm bands on and children who can swim get to the side to rest then they will be fine.

The playgound is lovely too with several sized slides, climbing frame, swings, roundabout and a see saw and is very clean.

As for the 35 euros for a two day two day park pass I cant see this being right as a one day two park pass with 15% off was £35.  If im wrong then what a brilliant deal.

Hope you all have a lovely time, i want to go :-(

Hi

From memory, last time I was there, the polarity was reversed, but you only need to switch the brown and blue wires around (leave the earth alone - yellow / green) in your mains hook up lead and the electric works as normal. Take a tester plug (available from any caravan accessories shop) to see if the polarity is reversed as it can vary from bollard to bollard.

Oooops!.........sorry!..my mistake, I shaould have said a ONE day TWO park pass!

We have just come back from 4 vents and we loved it!

We were right at the back on an enormous pitch. The pool was cold but it was very hot while we were there so it was welcome.

It was a bit annoying how there wasn't a bar or vending machine for drinks in the day or around the pool but I will certainly go back here
