Review of the campsite :

The ambience and beauty of the site.

Some of the showers require attention. The water duration is far too short, others are only cold only.

Accommodation review : Comfort package (1 tent, caravan / 1 car or camper / 10A electricity)

The size and location of our pitch

Review of the campsite :

We love this campsite and have stayed as a stopover many times, but we noticed that our designated toilets were in a very poor & extremely state.

Make them as pleasant as the toilet block to the side of the office

Review of the campsite :

Arrived and we moved pitch as was close to a school event was no problem at all to move us . Bar reasonably priced ,lake swimming good , also can use next doors lake with slide for no extra charge . Bar had entertainment ideal for younger families shower blocks clean and lovely walks along the river

Place would really benefit from a freshwater pool aswell as the lakes .

Accommodation review : Comfort package (1 tent, caravan / 1 car or camper / 10A electricity)

Plenty of shaded areas and good electrical points

Maybe a few more easier accessible roads to the grass areas but this is only in case of adverse weather but this is not a negative comment .

Review of the campsite :

The lake

Pitches were poorly maintained. The shower block was poorly maintained and dirty The chemical emptying point was unsatisfactory Very noisy until gone 2 o'clock in the morning The worst site we have stayed on in a very long time.

Accommodation review : Comfort package (1 tent, caravan / 1 car or camper / 10A electricity)

pitch was level

Pitched was poorly maintained, hedges not trimmed with brambles encroaching onto pitch. Pitch was quite small with a tree in the middle making access difficult

Review of the campsite :

This is the second time we’ve stayed here as a family of adults. We love being able to swim in the Loir River as well as in the lake. The toilets are (nearly) always clean as the team clean them three times a day. It’s peaceful and quiet, but with lots of options for people wanting entertainment or activities. We will be back!

It’s busy and noisy over the Marcon Classic Weekend!

Accommodation review : Comfort package (1 tent, caravan / 1 car or camper / 10A electricity)

The pitch for the tent is shady and has hedges on three sides.

Hedges could be cut/trimmed, but this is minor!

Review of the campsite :

Nice area

Shower/Toilet facilities are in desperate need of replacement

Accommodation review : Comfort package (1 tent, caravan / 1 car or camper / 10A electricity)

Nice view

All grass and hedges needed cutting. Probably not ready for the season yet

Establishment response

Bonjour M PARKER unfortunately it is prohibited to cut hedges from April 15 to August 15. This is a new French law. Believe me, we are sorry. For sanitary facilities it is the responsibility of the village town hall we make requests which remain unanswered. We are sorry for these inconvenients See you soon Isabelle

Review of the campsite :

L'accueil, la rapidité d'intervention (le frigo nous a lâché), la disponibilité du mobilhome voisin (pour la terrasse couverte)

Hébergement pendant la canicule, terrasse non couverte, juste avec un petit parasol....heureusement qu'il n’y avait personne en face, pour profiter d’un peu d'ombre...propreté du mobilhome (c'était pas nickel le menage, je comprends que c'était un vieux mobilhome mais quand même) manque de lumières dans l'allée centrale quand il y a des soirées prévues, surtout avec les gros pots de fleurs

Accommodation review : Mobile home 32m² / 3 Bedrooms

La qualité de la literie

Pas assez d’ouverture(vitre fixe devant), après c'était un vieux mobilhome à changer...Pas assez de place dans les chambres à 2 lits pour des adultes

Establishment response

Bonjour Madame, Merci d’avoir pris le temps de partager votre expérience. Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié notre accueil, notre réactivité lors de la panne du réfrigérateur, ainsi que la qualité de la literie. Nous sommes en revanche désolés que certains aspects de votre séjour n’aient pas pleinement répondu à vos attentes. Les fortes chaleurs sont effectivement exceptionnelles. Nous prenons bonne note de votre remarque concernant la terrasse non couverte, il est prévu qu'elle soit couverte l'année prochaine. Nous avons actuellement fait déjà beaucoup de changement et d'investissement, nous allons continuer sur les années à venir. Concernant le mobil-home, il s’agit effectivement d’un modèle plus ancien, mais nous veillons à son entretien et à sa propreté, vous auriez du venir nous voir, l'équipe entretien serait intervenue. Vos remarques sur les ouvertures, l’espace des chambres et l’éclairage des allées seront prises en considération dans nos futurs aménagements. Nous vous remercions pour vos observations constructives et espérons avoir le plaisir de vous accueillir de nouveau afin de vous faire découvrir un hébergement plus récent et mieux adapté à vos attentes. Bien cordialement, L’équipe du Camping Le Lac des Varennes

Review of the campsite :

les sanitaires ne semblent pas être nettoyé régulièrement. Traces de sang sur les murs. Vraiment gros point noir l'hygiène des sanitaires et il n'y avait pas grand monde sur le camping. En dehors de cela, tout le reste était très bien.

avoir d'autres arbres pour davantage d'ombre

Review of the campsite :

Le cadre est paisible, c'est propre, les emplacements de tente sont grands, la roulotte est très confortable, et l'équipe très aimable. Nous sommes restés peu de temps mais le lieu nous a fait envie !

Accommodation review : Unusual accommodation: the barrel -

C'est mignon et confortable. On peut acheter un kit de linge de lit jetable.

Het was lekker rustig.

Het restaurant mag wel vaker open en de douchen mogen wel een opknapbeurt krijgen.
