The campsite is very nice, bar and restaurant are very good. Pitches are flat and spacious. Nice to get in the pool after a hot drive.
None, BBQ provided was very good.
Good sized pitch, flat, electric hookup close by.
Nope

Site was large and lots of open space places to walk and was very clean and tidy it was a lovely site pool was nice as well . Toilet block and shower and waste disposal were all handy and very good .
Check is was not great , here’s you pitch and map and that was it , no explanation of facilities etc . Electric didn’t work on pitch and three trips later to reception over 2 hours to get a response . We booked with our friend months ago , asking for pitches next to each other and were told it wasn’t possible, but there was easily space , they just couldn’t be bothered to let us move so this was very disappointing. People arrived after us for one night and pitched next to us to clearly would have been easy to resolve. And spoilt our stay as we were a long way apart on a hilly site .
Pitch was in shady are with lots tree cover , so sun was shaded a lot of the time
Pitch was Hilly and could not get Motorhome level Pitch electric was not operational and they took hours to arrange an extension lead which I was left to sought out.

We had a good, relaxing stay at Le Colombier. It was our fourth visit but we had not visited for ten years. In that time the site has grown and the roads have been improved as has the general layout. It's a site with plenty of space to explore.
Although the members of staff were helpful when approached, the change from a family-owned business to what appears to be a more commercial setup, has led to a somewhat less proactive approach when it comes to engaging with visitors. It's also sad when those running a naturist site don't appear to be practising naturists themselves. Unfortunately, the café, bar and shop were very understaffed during our visit, which meant they were not open at key times of day and for us led to a somewhat disastrous evening meal in our second week.
After decades of camping we decided to use site accommodation for the first time. Our mobile home was very adequate and provided a comfortable stay with all that we needed. When we pointed out that a couple of items were missing, they were very promptly provided.
On arrival we were told that our accommodation was on a very windy spot and that the sun canopy had been ripped off. We were told that a new one was on order, but given that the site was not at full capacity at that time, it would have been good customer relations to have offered an alternative cabin. The canopy was still missing at the end of our stay - fortunately we had taken our own sun shelter.

Large pitches.

Good friendly naturist camp site, good size pitches excellent swimming pool, neat bar/Restaurant friendly staff.
All the toilet and shower facilities are desperate for refurbishment, could be little better organised, while we were their you collected your bread/Qosants at 9am, while the member of staff is also going over the bill foranyone leaving that morning !! Would be better to open the shop and sell from their as the previous owners did.
Good size pitch, swimming pool bar/Restaurant
Toilet/Shower blocks they are in desperate nead of refurbishment and that there isn't a chemical disposal along side the motorhome/Campervan grey water drain at the site entrance?

Lots of improvements on previous visits. Staff very attentive and helpful. We very much enjoyed the Wellness claps and used it twice, very good value Pool area spotless. Can’t comment on restaurant as we self catered
The fishing lake appears to have been neglected, would like to see some attention given to this
Our pitch 10 was lovely and the facilities were always spotless

I really enjoyed the nature walks, big pool area, being surrounded by nature and the rustic village centre.
Music seemed to go well into the evening one night.
Generous site size and shade from trees and grass on the ground.
Electricity to some sites are too far away.

The size of the pool The possibility for naked walks
We were sad not to be aware of the set meal on Sunday. Other than this the menu was limited.
Good sized pitch with partial shade
Nothing

Water to all pitches for hook up
Pitch was huge and well positioned

Very relaxing, pool lovely, chalet great.
Went in early June so out of season so the shop, bar etc. very limited opening times. Don't know if it is better during July and August, the high season, but I suspect it would be better.
Very good, clean and comfortable.

Friendliness of staff
Close to water, sanitation. But still quiet.
Hello, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us ! We hope to welcome you here again soon.

Very pleasant site
Coat of paint around the pool walls would be nice. Looked a bit shabby.
Pitch was lovely
Hello, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, we aprpeciate it !

Thank you again for your feedback and we hope to see you again soon at Le Colombier !

It's rustic, sprawling and friendly. Great swimming pool and a lovely adjacent farmhouse for evening drinks and something to eat.
1) Since a reasonable supermarket is a 20 minute drive stock the shop properly. 2) Put back seating in the bar when it's cold outside. 3) More bar staff required during peak periods 4) Electric power distribution to pitches needs reviewing

Welll laid out csmpsite, wirh plenty of space between pitches. Friendliness of the other guests.
Better evening entertainment would be nice. In previous years there was a live band. Need more bar staff duringv the evening. There can often be quite a queue.
Pitch was great. Plenty of space Lawns we're well kept.

We had a lovely time at Le Colombier. Megan at reception gives a friendly and smiley welcome and Ludo and team do all they can to give everyone a super stay. The food from restaurant was very good.
We camped in the field which had lovely views across the valley
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, we aprpeciate it ! We will let our teams know of the kind words, and we look forward to seing you again soon :)

First impressions was pitches were overgrown with grass and weeds. Grass and weeds not cut around our area during our 3 week stay. Several discrepancies between inventory and items in chalet. ie 1 sunbed missing and parasol not supplied any more.
No change of bedding sheets during our 3 week stay unless paid extra. Surely costed into weekly rental rates. Did not book for entertainment. Feel this is now priortised over general upkeep of site
Comfortable during our stay
No bedding sheets in the second bedroom?? Assumed as only 2 of us we would be sharing the double bed. No change of bedding sheets during stay as noted above
Hello, thank you for taking the time to leave a review ! It's what helps us better improve ourselves. We are sorry to hear your stay wasn't up to your expectations. We now have a company that cleans our bedding, so we do have to charge you for any extra sheets you may use during your stay. However, the initial bedding is always free of charge. The general upkeep of the site is, of course, a priority of ours. However, entertaining and making sure everybody is having a good time is also a priority. It's what makes a holiday special. We are sorry you do not agree. We do hope, nevertheless, to welcome you back soon ! :)

A nice campsite with level pitches. Facilities are reasonable, pool, bar, restaurant and very well priced. Toilet facilities are good, Nice shower blocks, well kept.
Access to the spa without additional charge, similar to Heliomonde, but I recognise this is a campsite, not a club.
Liked the ability to choose our pitch, they are large and flat, making positioning the van simple.
No, it was as I expected, we enjoyed our stay.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, they help us grow and improve ourselves ! We look forward to seeing you again at Le Colombier !

Great to have wi fi included in the price this year and to have the option of social evenings. We had our requested mobile home which was clean and the tapas snacks were delicious.
There were no loungers on our arrival and when we did get them they do not have an adjustable backrest so are most uncomfortable. Less flies.
We liked the fabric, cushioned sofa seating. Sunny location.
Not much room to get round the bed.
Hello Mr Goode, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, it means a lot. We are happy you enjoyed your stay. We will let our teams know about the loungers, we appologise for the inconvenience.

What a peaceful, serene place in the countryside. Friendly welcome, lovely pool and bar, with a fantastic pétanque court. Great walks in the surrounding woods as well.
More hard or stabilised standings for campervans/motorhomes would be good
Good hard/stabilised standing of a great size so you had plenty of room.

Very good
Very friendly

We look forward to seeing you again soon at Le Colombier !
