Great shaded outdoor pool, as the weather was very hot 38c during our stay. Very pleasant and cool indoor pool, good walks around the ponds to exercise our dog in well maintained greenery. Lovely bar/restaurant
Larger outdoor exercise area for dogs to run off their lead.

Large pitch and shaded which we needed for our dog. Friendly and helpful staff. Very quiet at night.
None that I can think of - perfect for us.
Super sized pitch which was more than adequate for our outfit.
Nothing that can think of.

The location is good with a small baby. Play room and pool for kids are very accommodating.
The opening hours in mid June are surprising. The indoor pool is from 10 am, outdoor one from 11 am and both are closed at 7 pm. The reception area (as well as all outdoor game accessories) is not before 9 am. Even the bread corner is from 8 am. We were staying during a very hot period (+39 for the whole week) and those hours were not reconsidered to let people enjoy the facilities before the heat hits you. Everything costs extra, even a baby chair! Include it in the price of the bungalow, because it's really unpleasant to be told that you can't have the chair before you pay 4,5€ beforehand.
The view is very beautiful.
AC in summer has to literally work 24/7 for it to be fresh in the bedrooms. It makes the living room/kitchen a very cold place to be. In our previous experience in other locations the AC had a more thoughtful location.

Ver easy check in.Taken personally to chose our pitch Nice pool with plenty sun loungers Clean toilets and showers Very peaceful
Difficult to answer. For the one night we stay it was great.
Was out own camping car.

We had a warm welcome from friendly helpful staff. This was our fifth visit so they did remember us. As it was early in the season, the site was peaceful but slightly busier over the Pentecost weekend.
It was a well kept large pitch with shade from the trees which was very useful when the temperature exceeded 30+c.
Our only gripe were the ants!! Spray bought from the Auchan Supermarket soon cured that!

Nice staff, good pool complex but other facilities are a little tired but very clean.
Pool complex.

Well organized and maintained site with great facilities.
Perhaps some low music at the Cafe Terrace.
Large pitch and the private facilities were perfect - well worth the money!
It was a little tight getting out of the pitch and would have been very difficult for a larger Motorhome.

Your comments on the Castel Suite and its private bathroom facilities are very welcome: that extra bit of comfort is definitely worth trying!

Friendly, helpful staff and a very nice site. Natural woodland surroundings and very comfortable facilities. Definitely recommend and hope to return soon and will stay longer.
Showers are a little dated but perfectly adequate.
Large, private screened pitch with up-rated electric supply and easy water connection. Very well thought out and amongst lovely woodland surroundings.
No complaints. Loved it here.

Fabulous pitch, very large, surrounded by hedges and trees, great facilities on pitch bathroom, fridge, furniture & bbq. Swimming pools were great, fishing good, cannot fault it
It would of been great of we could of done activities like golf/tennis in the evenings when it was cooler as too hot in the day.
Incredible pitch, clean facilities , lovely shaded pitch, freezer was an added bonus we thought it was just a fridge.

We used this stop over to break our trip to the south and usual castels are delightful
Smoother stones by children’s pool
Plenty of space and tidy

Very happy with accommodation. Nice location near the lake. Well-equipped and clean.
I would have expected a better stocked shop, but perhaps this was because we were at the end of the season. It would have been helpful to have a EV charging point.
Clean, well-equipped. View of the lake.
It was fine for a couple. It might have been a bit small for a family unless the children were quite young.

The beautiful gardens and shrubs so well tended and looked after.
Restaurant area and food.
Huge pitch with a lovely setting.
Restaurant area could be upgraded

Territory, staff, overall cleanliness efforts, generous and well-shaded pitches, pools
The restaurant is only a bistro, really. We were also surprised, as there was no castle (we've been to a couple of other Les Castels sites, and all of them were actual castles)
Pitch was great!
No complaints

Lovely big pitches, good clean toilet block and great facilities which kept the children entertained for hours
Lovely and big and well shaded by trees. Felt very secluded

Nothing
Improve pitch size. Our pitch was supposed to be large but we were squeezed in with no defined borders, people walking through the pitch and washing hanging across a ‘supposed’ border. No privacy at all. Inadequate pitch for the size of our caravan and high cost of it. Inadequate room for parking for adjacent pitches meant cars parked on our pitch on arrival. Too noisy with far too many children running around and on bikes.
Convenience of toilet and shower right by the pitch.
Really disliked the site, felt very overcrowded and cramped. Unkempt borders/ grass too long. Not for us! Nothing like previous Castel sites we have stayed on. Very disappointing.
Hello Donna, Thank you for sharing your thoughts. There has clearly been a misunderstanding about the nature of the site and what you were looking for. Our estate is geared towards families and children. Your pitch was over 180 m², bordered on two sides by hedges and trees that mark the boundary and provide shade; we practise sustainable maintenance, which is why the borders are more natural. The description ‘pitch with private bathroom facilities’ means that the bathroom facilities are private, but the pitch is neither fenced off nor completely enclosed. When you arrived, a badly parked car temporarily blocked the entrance; we found the owner and cleared the entrance within about 30 minutes. As you chose to cut your stay short because you found the atmosphere too lively, you were only charged for the time you actually stayed (two nights). We take note of your disappointment; it has less to do with the square footage than with an expectation of tranquillity that was not met at this family campsite.
