We are a family of 5 and have just spent 12 nights camping with friends ( family of 4) using our own tents. The pitch was a good size and had plenty of room even with a large tent a gazebo and the car although being very sandy made it hard pegging it down and walking about bare foot was a no go as lots of small thistles growing. The campsite was exellent and the facillities were really good and kept very clean, the pools were fantastic and the kids loved it (so did the adults!). the bar and disco area was good and not to noisey from our pitch although i expect that the pitches closer may not say the same. We hired a cooler and found that it did the job although small and caught us out as we expected it to be on the pitch not a hike across the site so would recommend taking your own.
If planning on eating out, i would recommend getting into the car and driving a short distance to Capbriton or Hossegor, where there are more restaurant choices.
The beach down the road was no good for swimming or for young kids as the waves are big, a short drive though to Capbriton and the beach was fantastic, Hossegor is also a good beach and the shops are not bad, Picking the right spot to park and getting to the beaches early is the ticket as all the free parking spots fill up fast.
Bayonne is a lovely place to visit and do some shopping, Biarritz was ok but very busy ( Dont bother with the train tour, waste of money!).
Overall we had a fantastic time and didnt want to come home, Would we stay there again yes if we go back to that area.
