Castel Camping La Garangeoire *****

Review of the campsite

We stayed with you for one week in 2019 when our girls were only 6 and 4. It was our first camping trip in France and back then we absolutely adored it. Since 2019 we’ve travelled around France to different sites and adapted as our girls have grown. We stayed just one night with you due to the fires in the south as we travelled north to await our next stay. Your site is bar far the most special and looked after we have ever been. We feel like it’s run by real people who care, not the big machine run sites we have stayed at for the last 6 years. Thank you for staying true to your selves.

Review of the campsite

Campsite as always fantastic. New pool area fantastic with plenty of loungers being, ultra fussy (a little hard and uncomfortable) .

New restaurant menu, not as good as previous years. A little restricted with choice and maybe not up to usual standard. Fresh vegetables in shop poor quality. Limited products available.

Review of the campsite

The site is amazing. The fully serviced pitches are outstanding. The staff all very helpful no matter what thweir role. The variety and quality of food on offer at the take away is excellent. Having zero alcohol on draught is a great option. Mini market very well stocked. Recycling area clean and instructions clear. The site rules of quiet after 1030 is good. The washing machines although only 5 of them for the site seem well Managed and they public toilets and shower units were very well maintained and clean. The small bar area is exceptionally and the staff keep it really clean.

On arrival we should have asked For a plot that wasn’t part of a walkway for people as our puppy was extremely interested in everything and everyone going past. That was our only real thing we would change.

Review of the campsite

De très beaux souvenirs et une superbe équipe d'animation. Personnel tres accueillant.

Moins de différence sur le modernisme (luxe) des sanitaires. Emplacement tente beaucoup moins moderne que les autres.

This campsite has it all - lovely pitch, clean and new facilities, helpful reception (thank you Charly), nice pool, bar, shop - it ticks all the boxes!!

The pool needs to be made bigger!

Review of the campsite

The site is friendly, clean, well-staffed and full of things to do. I liked the fact that the owners work hard to reduce the environmental impact of the site and to make it nature-friendly (swallows in our washing up area!). The pool was beautiful and the nearby cafe with cold drinks and ice cream were a wonderful treat after a swim. Our camp spot was a grand pitch - shady with a lovely large wooden table and chairs, which was great. At night the site was quiet and you could sit and watch the bats and the marvellous sunset. My daughter loved the riding - 2 hour rides with a dip in the lake!

The fishing equipment needed to be repaired - there was nothing serviceable to hire, which was a shame.

Mooie camping, met veel leuke activiteiten!! Mooi sanitair!

Review of the campsite

La localisation du camping et sa proximité avec l'océan et le cadre verdure.

Petits à côté qui font le charme des vacances beaucoup trop chers et peu variés (restauration/snack, activités type mini golf ou tir à l'arc par exemple), sentiment que tout est sujet à facturation supplémentaire (seconde voiture facturée 40€ pour être simplement garée sur le parking pendant la durée du séjour, jeton de lessive à 6€ sans la lessive,...), camping adapté à une clientèle très majoritairement anglophone (difficultés pour sociabiliser notamment pour nos ados, rythme/mode de vacances très différents), peu d'ambiance (on ne voit pas les animateurs), manque d'incarnation du camping.

Review of the campsite

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans ce camping\. Les emplacements sont parfaits, notamment pour les vans aménagés, avec suffisamment d’espace et un cadre agréable\. Les sanitaires étaient toujours très propres, ce qui est un vrai point positif\. Nous voyageons avec des chiens, et l’environnement est idéal grâce à la forêt qui entoure le camping, parfaite pour de belles balades\. Le personnel est également très agréable, accueillant et disponible\.

En revanche, quelques points mériteraient d’être améliorés. Les cocktails du bar sont décevants : on sent que les saisonniers ne maîtrisent pas toujours les recettes ni les dosages, ce qui nuit à la qualité. Le plus gros point faible reste le snack. La qualité de la nourriture est vraiment en dessous de ce que l’on attend. Les produits semblent bas de gamme et les pizzas sont très chères pour une garniture très légère, avec seulement quelques morceaux de jambon. Dans l’ensemble, nous recommandons ce camping pour son cadre, sa propreté et son accueil.

Review of the campsite

We just finished an 8 day stay and loved every minute of it. Our pitch was the nicest pitch we have ever stayed in. Shady, spacious and with great amenities. The range of activities for our 3 children (7,6 and 4) were brilliant. They had the time of their lives. The evening entertainment is fun and varied and they will remember the close friendships and new experiences forever. Us adults also had a great time, lovely restaurant, wine tasting evening and spaces to hang out and enjoy a book We felt it was excellent value for money and appreciated that many activities were free (boating, Lego).

Review of the campsite

un séjour idyllique, une équipe très agréable, sympathique et au petit soin pour les campeurs, même si parfois on voit bien que les jeunes sont dans leur premier pas ( il faut bien commencer un jour) un cadre fantastique, une infrastructures au top , les sentiers balisés, les Pédalos,......

un peu plus de fermeté à la piscine surtout quand il y a du monde avec les enfants qui sautent sans regarder, et n'attendent pas aux toboggans.

Review of the campsite

Such a variety of things to do in such a beautiful, cared for environment with lovely staff. Our 6 year old loved it, making friends and being able to be independent to roam the grounds, it was ideal as a break for all of us. I loved the guided tour Anne, the owner, gave of the grounds, it was fascinating. Hope to be back again next year!

Sometimes there are long queues for ice cream or at the bar, sometimes the pool is very crowded

Review of the campsite

Such friendliness, familiarity, and facilities surely can’t be found anywhere else. Suitable for all ages.

Better WiFi.

Review of the campsite

Everything! Friendly staff, lovely site, great entertainment.
