We especially love the beauty of this site and how peaceful it feels. We are a senior couple and we stayed here in our caravan. It is our second stay here and we will certainly book here again. The pitches are generously sized and the layout of the site has been thoughtfully designed. Everything is very well maintained and the sanitary block is spotless. Reception staff are helpful, the restaurant is very good and all staff are friendly.
The view, the size of the pitch and ease of access

Generous sized pitch. Lovely restaurant
Good size with shady spots

The quiet atmosphere that prevailed even given the number of young teenagers on site.
Maybe a bigger shop.
The size and position of our pitch was great.
Loading
A large campsite with excellent large pitches and a friendly and helpful staff.
Possibly a larger shop on site.
Very Large grassed pitch close to the lake. Very handy to have a drainage point on the pitch.

What a simply beautiful and peaceful site . The owner a charming lady that has by the looks of it spent many many years perfecting the design and running of this wonderful site regularly charging around on her golf buggy charming her quests , the staff are all very friendly eager to please and want you to have a wonderful stay giving you a full and proper overview of where everything is and what is on etc etc .We have stayed in many les castles sites over the years but none that has had this total feel of tranquility and friendliness .booked for 3 nights ended up 6 did not want to leave
May consider eco matting on the grass pitches to help in wetter weather , but other than that this lady has this site just about perfect for what we like .
Everything just perfect
Being hyper critical as I have mentioned Ed may be eco matting on pitches to aid the grass pitches from not getting g churned up in wetter weather and aid bogging down of heavy caravans a d motorhomes

This site is absolutely stunning, we had a lakeside pitch (100) which was well worth paying the extra for. You wake up to the birds and go to bed to the ducks and crickets! The site is extremely well laid out, very clean and the facilities are great. You can order bread and pastries for the next day at reception. The restaurant on site is worth a visit too, the food is delicious and the waiter is lovely. You can cycle into Boussac which is worth a visit especially on market day. Overall this was an exceptional find.
None
In front of the lake. Serviced site.

After we said we couldn't stay in the Gite we were quickly moved to a Premium chalet which was excellent. Had to give a mark of 1 for accommodation as there was no zero. It would have been zero for the Gite and ten for the chalet
The Gite, Baker's oven our original accommodation, was cold in the living area, uncomfortable and the floor mats by the entrance door were filthy and needed replacing.

The owners & staff were all very friendly & helpful making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived & throughout our stay. The on site restaurant served excellent meals. There is a lovely outdoor pool complex. The site is set in a wonderful natural location overlooking a magnificent lake & was so peaceful with plenty of entertaining wildlife. We had a small issue with our motorhome & was helped to address the problem on site - that was service above and beyond… This site deserves to do well & we hope to return again soon & will be recommending it to our motorhoming friends.
The convenience of our private washroom facilities & the ability to cook & eat at the covered table made for a wonderful stay. The pitch was very large & overlooked the beautiful lake.

We enjoyed our stay very much, it was truly relaxing!
The lodge was very comfortable and had everything we needed.

Beautiful location on lake.
Would be nice to have a bit more level, trees/bushes between sites and a view of chateau.
View was great from this spot.

The campsite is well laid out, pitch sizes are very generous, nice swimming pool that didn't get crowded. The staff are very tentative and go above and beyond what one would expect.
The bar is a bit dead, no atmosphere. The shop isn't well stocked.
Good size pitch with luscious grass

Very nice site, clean and quiet. The staff are very kind and generous in their help with speaking English as we don't have a good grasp on the French language. Such a nice site that we booked for an extra night. The owner is very nice and we would not hesitate to visit again if we were travelling in France again.
Nothing to dislike, even when the weather was a bit chilly at times.
Pitch is well equipped and large. Near to the sanitary block but not too close. Sanitary block is exceptionally clean and well equipped.
Nothing.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Poinsouze - very helpful and welcoming staff, great pool and playground facilities for the kids, the lake was small but fun for casual paddleboarding (we brought boards with us but could have hired water craft) Fresh bread from the shop every morning, and the site was very safe for our older son to go about all over by himself. Our toddler was very busy as well! The animations were great for our 10yo
Because lots of campers only stayed one or two nights en route to somewhere else, the kids making friends was inconsistent. Luckily there were a few other longer stay families at the same time as us.
Fantastic large pitch, plenty of space for our 8-man tent, awning, washing line, badminton and other outdoor games! Tree cover at one end of the pitch meant shade was available whenever we needed it, and the hedges demarked the edge of our pitch pleasantly.
One of the trees dropped Many acorns on the pitch so quite painful underfoot! Not a lot to be done about it but slip on shoes were necessary!

Well organised. Very friendly and helpful staff. Great location. Excellent restaurent and take away. The meal and concert was a highlight.
Would have been nice to be able to swim in the lake. This is not a dislike, but rather a suggestion, you could provide a range of walks and cycle rides information at reception. I'd be happy to hep with this!
Excellent pitch.
You could remove the hedge on our pitch as it divided it a little.

We received a superb, friendly welcome on arrival. Our serviced pitch was a really good size overlooking the lake. Everywhere was clean and tidy and the restaurant food was superb. We really enjoyed our short stay and meeting the people who worked here. Cannot recommend it highly enough.
Leaving!
Pitch size was superb

We had a lovely week with 2 primary aged children. They had so much independence in a safe and fun environment.
The swimming pool, the football matches and the weather
No, but it would be great if the shop had a few more basic provisions.

Excellent restaurant and bar, lovely pool, beautiful setting, amazing pitches, warm and welcoming staff.
We would have liked the restaurant to be open more evenings. More products in the shop wound have been helpful.
Really excellent pitch and great value. Spacious with a great view over the lake and plenty of shade. Having a fridge and table and chairs plus WiFi included really good.
We weren’t given our Wi-Fi vouchers when we arrived which would have been helpful.

Fantastic pitches- good size, flat and shaded. Spotless washrooms with lots of hot water and good water pressure. Quiet and peaceful campsite which was a relaxing end to our holiday. Pool area was lovely and we also enjoyed sitting at the bar looking at the view.
Flat spacious pitch

Everything. Have camped in France for over 50 years and this place has everything.
Some sites do have very little shade . Traffic speed limits need to be clearer and to be enforced.
Spacious with lots of shade
Had everything we wanted.

The friendly staff, the food in the restaurant and takeaway is excellent and the peaceful environment.
The weather!
Having a dishwasher was lovely, the view and space around the accommodation.
The sofa was not very comfy. The windows in the twin bedrooms could not be opened onto a tilt like in the master bedroom. Outside chairs as well as the wooden benches would be good, although the weather was not for sitting outside this week. A tv would have been a nice option to have.
