We have been to la Garangeoire twice and found their pool to be a nice temperature, although they also have a covered pool which us even warmer, and a shallow kids pool on one side of a walkway bridge.
The kids noticed how warm the main pool was when they went to the weekly pool party - swimming until 10pm!

I thought St Hilaire's pool was warm...we've just got back from Pin Parasol and that pool was warmish.

We are currently on one of the indigo sites on ile d'oleron (les pins), and they have two pools.
The smaller round pool 1.2m deep is not heated, but the larger pool 1.5m deep is heated and whilst not very warm, it is quite a good temp to just stand in it for half hour...plus the kids zip between the two pools to appreciate the warmer of the two.

Just back from La Garangeoire, pool temp was best I have found so far in France. I am v sensitive to cold but I enjoyed the pool at La G. The covered pool is a bit colder not being exposed to the sun.

LOL 1 camper
Have been to Bel for 8 of the last 10 yrs and whilst I agree that the site is great
The owner never sees the need to spends a cent on heating the pool as its full even in the rain !

Hi
We have just returned from the Vendee and stayed on what we consider to be the two best sites! Oceano d'or pool was lovely and warm and has a great new indoor kiddies pool section and the main pool was lovely and warm, then we moved to camping club Les Brunnelles which also was heated and felt lovely and warm, I went in both pools and im soft, it has to be warm for me to go in them!! Brunnelles has a fab pool complex and you can use camping cheques from 23rd August onwards. We did 6 nights on Oceano and 7 on Brunnelles, both sites are fab and the area is stunning.
