“Read the top reviews 'cos they're right”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 September 2011

I must admit that I used to enjoy reading some of the negative reviews on Trip Advisor and similar websites. They are rarely accurate but have made me laugh in the past but I never stopped to think of the upset that these asinine comments must have to the reviewees.
Cats catch birds? Well there's a surprise. Cats do things like that and it is unfortunate. I have a dog that catches snakes and that is much more exciting especially when he drops them onto one's lap.
Le Chant is well placed if you wish to tour around the Loire. There are many Châteaux in the area and a number of good museums. There's a Tank museum to rival Bovingdon in the UK and 3 museums dedicated to mushrooms!
There looked like there was some good fishing to be had in that area but I didn't bother to follow it up.
Le Chant is situated in a wooded area so take a good quality powerful torch and you may be rewarded with some views of the local Deer. We heard a Woodpecker that was different to the UK woodpeckers but it proved to be elusive so we were unable to recognise it.
Le Chant seems to organise "food" nights. These seem to be organised in much the same manner as the Caravan Club and/or Camping and Caravan Club district meetings. These two Clubs have always found this to be a good way to get people talking so why not stick to a tried and trusted formula? It certainly works and made for an excellent evening or two.
I suppose that the true acid test of whether or not a site is successful is their amount of repeat bookings. The repeat bookings for Le Chant would be the envy of many other sites
Again, I must say "Thank you" to Stu and Syb for a most enjoyable stay.

“Camping Paradise”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 September 2011

people found this review helpful

From the moment you arrive at this site you are made to feel welcome. After a long drive the refreshment you are offered upon arrival is most welcoming. I have visited this site for 2 consecutive years - once on my own and the following year with my family. Both visits have been the most relaxed and peaceful experiences of my life whilst camping. Stu & Syb are the perfect hosts and offer excellent meals in the barn, were you can meet your fellow guests and chat away to the late hours. The site is very quiet during the night with everyone ensuring there is no noise after 11pm. The facilities are excellent with clean showers and toilets, a great splash pool which the kids thoroughly enjoyed and the campers kitchen. We have already booked for summer 2012 and are counting the days already........

“An excellent campsite”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 September 2011

people found this review helpful

We stayed at this site because it is close to gardens and chateaux in the Loire Valley - it turned out to be an excellent choice. We liked the size of the site and felt it had a lovely peaceful rural feel to it with all the comforts of home - constant hot water, clean showers and toilets, a fully fitted "Kampers' Kitchen", even a fridge for our tent. We had great service provided by Stu and Syb, who helped us sort out the electricity and even lent us an electrical lead and gave us advice on places to visit.

We were really cannot recommend the site too highly. It is great for children and toddlers and has a great family feel, especially sitting out for the lovely shared meals.

“Stu and Syb have a rare gift...”

Stu and Syb have a rare gift for facilitating exactly the holiday you hope to have.
If you want peace and solitude its yours.
New friends and happy relaxed socialising you can have that too.
The genuine warmth that greeted us on our arrival is instantly relaxing after a long journey.
Stu and Syb's unobtrusive hard work behind the scenes ensures you enjoy your holiday, from the generous welcome pack to the care for their environment is obvious.
This is essentially their home and garden which they open for you to enjoy, treat it with respect and appreciation in the hope that their commitment and enthusiasm will be sustained so you can come and enjoy it again and again. We will!

“It's our little bit of paradise.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 September 2011

We visit this wonderful site 3 times a year----it's so good we can't stay away!!!
Stu and Syb are the ideal hosts who can't do enough for you, starting with that welcoming cup of tea when you arrive and continuing throughout your stay with them.
The meals, cooked by Syb twice weekly, are delicious and excellent value for money ,as are Stu's weekly Wednesday pizzas. If you fancy eating off site I can strongly recommend L'oeil de Boeuf, a superb restaurant just a few miles away. Stu and Syb are happy to phone and make a reservation for you.
The site itself is blissfully peaceful-----plenty of room to sit, relax, read and dip in and out of the pool.
Can't wait until we return in October.
