Just a quick one...

Looking at using this as a stopover/longer stay

What is it like for walking the dog from the site. It says in their blurb 11 hectares of woods and parkland and can you walk dogs in it?

Thanks

A Camping Cheque site too, up until early July and then again from September, so really good value outside peak season.  Nice restaurant too - and a lovely owner!

That's interesting as I thought they were part of the Kawen Group who run Camping Cheques. Perhaps they feel they will be better off with ACSI rather than Camping Cheques.

I think they may be taking ACSI as well - or at least that was being discussed at one time when we were there.

They did give a pitch to someone who produced an ACSI card at the ACSI rate (which was then 16 euros), last time we were there.

Yes, and aren't they tame - they just stay there when you walk through them.  The babies are lovely, too, but I wonder how much damage they do to the pitches?

Being rufty tufty campers, we usually 'pitch' in the field just beyond the facilities block, and just behind those wooden chalet things......we are generally greeted by chickens that sleep in the hedgerow next to the open fields!!!! 

Perhaps we will come back that way next year if we go to Lacanau Lac (le Tedey of course). Verdict still out on where to go, I may get my way and go to Italy..travel time wise its about the same to the Dolomites as Southern Provence.
