Huge pitch and private facilities

Staff extremely polite, courteous and exceptionally helpful.
Very good site - large ample size for car and awning, toilet and shower facility clean and great advantage in rainy conditions.
Waste water pipe positioned too high so waste water stayed in pipe and backed up. If pipe were cut down to about 10-15cm it would be much better.

What a fantastic place to stay. We reserved a pitch for our motorhome. It was extremely comfortable, with plenty of space and we especially liked the fact there was a private shower and toilet hut on the pitch itself. It was very level and surrounded by nature, making the stay extra special. The takeaway was an added bonus, the pizza's were delicious. All sorts of activities available from the campsite, along with discounts offered for other places in the local area. Great basecamp to explore the vendee region.
Fishing is available onsite, however there didn't seem to be too many areas to do so. We also found the waters to be quiet, no bites whatsoever, however the weather was very warm so may of had an effect on the fish. Other than that it was brilliant
Everything about the oith was perfect. He sanitary hut was extremely clean and the shower was great with good water pressure. Very private and convenient. Couldn't fault it at all.

This has to be the best site we have ever stayed on. The site is exceptionally clean and has great facilities, including the swimming pool, restaurant and tennis courts).It's very peaceful and whilst it doesn't have internet across the whole site (centred around the reception area) the site did have a good mobile connection.
I can't think of any.
We stayed on the Pantheres pitch which was very spacious pitch, well laid out incorporating a wooden sanitary and kitchen facilities. It also came with a gas barbecue (bottle attached). We've stayed on other sites offering similar facilities but this one is definitely the best.

As soon as we drive up the drive way towards the house on the first day of our holiday we feel at home.
Larger umbrellas outside reception and the little bar to give more shade. We love having coffee in the morning and a drink here in the evening.
The friendliness of the people around us.

The best welcoming team each year. The most relaxing site. An outstanding restaurant. Why go anywhere else!
Prolong the season into the autumn, in this beautiful countryside.
Spacious well hedged pitch around our cabin. Well equipped indoors and in the garden. An oven and dishwasher.

We have been visiting this site for over 20years and now our grown up children Brian their children. There is always a warm welcome from the staff, site is immaculately clean and there is everything you could need on site
Can’t think of any negatives apart from maybe more umbrellas at the pool
It’s a good size and is very well equiped
Most are in the shade which is ok in the height of the summer but we go in Sept

Our favourite campsite in France. We have visited 8 times already and booked again for 2026 We love the space, the vast walks. They way the mobiles aren’t crammed together. Love the rustic, easy going charm. Love the staff, seeing a lot of the same people year after year. Love the way the rules are enforced (re speed & noise) which makes a more relaxed experience.
A more varied menu in the restaurant. We love eating there but feel the menu is very limited so we tend to go to the restaurant in St Julien more often as they have an amazing menu. It can be crushing when I speak my (admittedly rusty) French to staff at the bar and they keep responding in English. I spent a year in France 27 years ago. I was completely fluent, which is gone now but I really love being able to practice for 3 weeks a year. It’s never an issue at reception, shop, small bar or restaurant just the pool/beer garden bar. Not a big deal but a small thing that would improve a stay
We book with Eurocamp. Always happy, love the space on the pitch
WiFi is shocking. Not a massive big deal but somtimes our (teen) kids just want to go home around 10pm & chill and watch Netflix for an hour

LOVELY AND CLEEN ,VERY NICE STAFF ,FOOD VERY GOOD
VERY UNHAPPY ABOUT OUR PITCH,WE PAID FOR A LARGE PITCH WITH TOILET AND SHOWER ,THE SHOWER WAS VERY SMALL AND FOUND IT DIFFICULT TO CONTROL THE TEMPERATURE. THE PITCH WAS VERY POOR WHEN THE RAIN CAME AND WOULD NOT DRAIN THE WATER AWAY.I DID ASK FOR SOMETHING TO BE DONE BUT PUTTING SAWDUST DOWN WAS USELESS WE SPENT NEARLY THREE WEEKS IN A VERY MUDDY PITCH ,AND HAD T PACK EVERYTHING AWAY COVERS IN MUD
NICE AREA
PLEASE SEE ABOVE

Huge pitches in a lovely green, leafy setting. All the staff were very helpful and cheerful. Nothing was too much trouble. Clara in particular was great when we had a slight problem with our electric hook up. The facilities were exceptional, all showers, etc spotlessly clean and the swimming pool area was superb. The lake and lagoon areas were very peaceful and beautifully maintained.

The individual facilities were very clean and it was very helpful having a washing up area too, as well as a drinking water pipe.
Would be useful to have an exterior light above the washing up sink. We visited in September and some evenings it was quite dark by the time we washed up after our evening cooking.

We enjoyed a lovely two weeks at Garangeoire this summer. The weather was a little unpredictable but there was plenty to do on site. So lovely that aside from a security deposit, the pedalos and canoes are totally free. The mini golf you can play as often as you like, again free. The restaurant is well worth a visit too. The staff on site can't do enough to help.
We were camping around the field which was a beautiful spot. Just one suggestion for improvement would be to please add a hand soap dispenser outside the 3 ladies toilets. There is a sink and soap in the men's toilet but only an outdoor tap close to the ladies'.
So convenient to have the fridge and extra under cover storage in the little shed. Beautiful spot next to the field, perfect for running, learning to ride a bike and games.
Not enough pain au raisins to go around in the mornings!

we loved this campsite. we came for 2 weeks, with 5 other families and we had such a great time. we always got sunbeds round the pool, and the lagoon was really nice. the restaurant was really nice food, and the takeaway also had great service. all staff were very friendly and spoke brilliant english. The kids loved the park, horseriding, and we felt safe letting them o to play. The site was also kept quiet after 10:30pm
when we initially booked it, we were under the impression that most of the activities would be free, like the kids football club, but they weren't that expensive. My main complaint was the pool sunbeds were so uncomfortable. so much, that I found it better to lay on the artificial grass.
lovely big pitch, plenty of shade from the trees, close to toilet block, close to main attractions. We loved all being on pitches close/next to each other.
no, the pitch was great. if we come again, we would like to be in the same place (pitch called mimosas).

The cleanliness of the place was really good. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. The array of activities available for the children was great, the children especially loved the football camp!!
Adventure play park/wooden style. Toilet facilities by the pool area to be cleaned more regularly.
The pitch was very clean and modern. It was nice having our own shower and toilet on the pitch. Having a bbq ready for us was really helpful. We had everything we needed.
An outside light/solar lighting around the seating area would be helpful. More storage/shelving in the bathroom (places for the toothbrushes to be stored).

Great atmosphere, friendly staff, good facilities and range of activities that really suited as a family with two young children

The overall feel of the site was fantastic.
We had a few nights where people were very loud and it affected our sleep. So maybe someone doing the rounds and checking noise levels.
Great location. Size was great.
Nope.
