Camping Le Colombier

Beautiful location for cycling with a lovely Lake to relax

Mosquitoes - but everywhere this time Of year

Séjour très agréable sur un emplacement calme et arboré. Nous avons été accueillis avec bienveillance et gentillesse (savoir être, prêt de matériel, infos). Le snack est très bien tenu (pâte à pizza maison, salades délicieuses, vins locaux, grand choix de glaces, etc.). Le petit lac est parfait pour se baigner avec des enfants qui ne savent pas encore nager. Il y a également 3 zones de jeux pour enfants et des tables de ping-pong à travers le camping. Bref, tout ce qu'il faut pour passer un bon séjour en famille !

Easy going

The msin building with toilets and washing places should be better cleaned. Much dust answer spinder webs and also dirt on the grond which stayed for many days, why not really use a broom and mob.

Fantastic site well located for the Tour de France climb up the Colombiere as well as some nice cycling routes nearby. Decent sized pitches with water and EHU and a daily bakery delivery when booked ahead. Owners very friendly, welcoming and helpful. A supermarket is a short walk away and there is an onsite bar and restaurant with take away food available (although we didn't use that). Would certainly visit this site again.

The toilet block needs some investment, for example there are no seats on the toilets which wasn't great. Grey water disposal is also not available at the site.

Great campsite

Beautiful Alpine scenery, great base, and Thones has everything you need

No

Good accommodation, and space, nice hard working couple,

Not much to do in walking distance.

The proximity to the Grand Colombier. Staff were pleasant and very helpful.

Facilities were tired and needed a revamp. Urinals looked. Like they hadn’t been cleaned properly in ages. Showers were dark, no lights. Pitch was a weed patch, hedges needed trimming. Water tap was broken forcing you to try and refil water carriers from sink taps.. I agree with the reviewer who stated that the main focus appears to be on the chalets not the camping pitches. There was an incredibly loud, persistent disco on the Thursday night which reverberated around the whole campsite which was completely unnecessary and kept us awake. Would think twice before going back.

Flexibility about our group of friends, that were allowed to join on our spot.

Owners were very pleasant and helpful. Showers were warm and powerful. Good effort to make food on site and provide evening entertainment. Bakery service was good. Site is close to the Grand Colombier for access to the Tour de France and to the local Carrefour for provisions. Close to Aix Le Bains and Chanaz but need to take a short drive there. Lake looked pretty but was more like a children’s play pool and not really suitable for adults. We brought our paddleboard and we’re not able to use it.

Site looks generally neglected and tatty. The gardens and hedges are overgrown, full of weeds and half dead flower pots. It doesn’t take a lot to sort this out. The communal areas are terrible, everything is mismatched, unkempt and seems unloved. Toilets (ladies) and in the one cubicle with the only toilet seat, the walls were filthy dirty with old excrement, dead spiders and flies on the walls. Not very hygienic at all. Quiet at night until 4 very disrespectful guests arrived next to us ruined 1 night and caused issues with other guests the next day. It was just dreadful.
