The pitch
Electrical hookup available (10A), euro plug required. Motorhomes accepted up to 8m, large caravans accepted. Pitch connections: water, sewer. Camper waste disposal on site. Pitches are well shaded. Pitches are marked. Paths lit at night. Guests describe grassy ground.
Pitch sizes are mixed — some guests report spacious, well-positioned pitches, particularly for mobile homes, while others found pitches too cramped for caravans, suggesting space varies significantly across the campsite. The adequate score reflects this inconsistency; what works for one type of accommodation may feel tight for another, especially larger touring units.
The location
Campsite set in forest. Restaurant within 100m. Certifications and labels: 3 stars. Reception languages: English. Guests describe the campsite as set among pine trees; A nearby town or village is within a very short walk (around 5 minutes); Access road is unpaved (gravel or dirt track); Sea or beach reachable by a short walk.
The campsite offers direct or very immediate access to the beach, with visitors noting they can reach the sand by crossing just a dune or going straight out. This convenient proximity is consistently appreciated, supporting the good rating for sea access from the site.
Rental units & mobile homes
The rental units are consistently described as clean and well-maintained, which supports the adequate rating. However, multiple comments note that the mobile homes show age and are not new, suggesting they lack modern finishes or features despite being cared for properly. Location near trees and the sea appears to be a highlight that compensates for the dated condition of the units themselves.
Also worth knowing
The check-in experience receives consistent praise for warmth and helpful staff across multiple observations. However, the adequate score suggests potential gaps—likely around waiting times, clarity of procedures, or flexibility in timing—that the positive interpersonal experience does not fully offset. Travellers should expect a friendly arrival process but may want to confirm specific check-in windows or policies in advance.
