Fantastic campsite for francophiles and lovers of all things French

Brit families looking to take their kids to meet/mix with other kids or go to kids club- this is not for you. This campsite is absolutely fantastic but @ 98% of guests are French. The staff can speak English if needed but it is not really generally spoken.
The site is large, very clean and tidy and dotted... with lovely raised flower beds and planters all beautifully maintained. Reception is bright, airy, modern, friendly, helpful and efficient.
The pool area is fantastic with hundreds of sun beds (although you might have to wait for one to become free at peak times) and plenty of shade.
The outside restaurant (and takeaway service) and entertainment area were also good with entertainment of varying standards provided every evening in peak times.
What lets this site down a bit is the shop and bar area. The shop had a small fridge with butter and packaged ham and a few shelves with tinned goods and jars. No fresh meat, vegetables or salads, which given the size of the site was very surprising. Greoux is the typical and very charming town about 5 minutes drive away (15 minutes walk) where there is a good Spar shop and fantastic shops ie boulangerie, fromagerie, boucherie etc. Bread is delivered daily ( but you do need to order what you want the day before).
The bar serves it’s purpose but is well past it’s sell by date and would benefit by being knocked down and rebuilt.
If you want to go to France on holiday and be amongst other Brits, this is not for you. If you want to go to holiday in France and immerse yourself in the French way of life, book this place immediately.
It is absolutely fantastic.
