Welcome to UKCS too. 

Hi

We stayed at Manoir de Kerlut last Sep.  We loved it.  Lovely grounds and the covered swimming pool was like our own private pool.  Outdoor one was too chilly.

Saying this we went with our two children begin Sep when the school holidays were over. So very,very quiet.  Have no idea what it would be like in season though.  Seemed a well looked after site with lots for children to do.  The Manoir itself was closed whilst we were there.

We would like to go back.  Not sure if this helps?

Thanks everyone,i think freedom camping could be the best way, if site no good we move to another.

Pete - there are other discount schemes too - take a look at the Camping Cheques, Touring Cheques  and ACSI websites.  Camping Cheques, and Touring Cheques need to be bought in advance, but with the ACSI card you just buy the book and the card, and show it at reception when you book in.  With ACSI some sites cost just 11 euros, others 13 and the most expensive 15 - and that's for pitch, two people, car and caravan, and electricity.  So, similar to Freedom Vouchers, you can just move on if you don't like a site.

Have a good holiday. 

Thank you everyone for all your helpful answers. We were originally put off camping cheques by a site owner who had experienced very pressurised sales techniques into joining up with camping cheques and they didn't get a very good deal out of the scheme.

The card idea is certainly an option we'll be investigating.

Thanks Ina,will use vouchers this time,maybe ACSI next year if all goes well and exchange rate is better.
