Working on the maxim that a picture is worth a 1000 words, I assume a video is even better

This is some video of our recent trip to Le Croix de Vieux Pont - it isn't the greatest quality (content, I mean - I'm no travel guide) but if you're considering going, it may push you one way or another - enjoy!

Thanks...

The statics are great - but £850 a week (out of school holidays) whereas we paid £160 for the pitch. OK, that static cost includes the ferry crossing but you can get those for £80 if you get the code for Norfolk Line ferries (and we went on Eurotunnel for £26 using Tesco vouchers). No contest, IMO....

You can use Camping Cheques at La Croix du Vieux Point, from 01/01/2011 to 06/07/2011, and again after 01/09/2011 until 31/12/2011. It's open all year, so a week on site, in those seasons, would cost only £97.65 for two adults, pitch, car and caravan (or tent or motorhome), awning, electricity and one dog! The indoor pool closes on 31/10/2011 though!

Good video. We will be there two weeks today, so hoping for some good weather so we can enjoy the outdoor pool. We have been allocated a pitch around the lake also.

Good video. We are going to LeCroix in our camper in a few weeks time so it was nice to have a look around on your video. My son camped there last year and reccommened it.

All the best,

Fred.
