We spent 7 days here in June 2011 camping in our own tent.. Well where do I start....we had a lovely drive down from Calais, we avoided auto route as much as we could and the scenery was just amazing! It took us 6 hours to drive down due to the toilet stops (my kids were 2 and 8) we arrived and set up camp, we were allocated a pitch by the pool and despite our initial concerns about the number of stones on the pitch we soon cleared the area and put up the tent!
There is a little supermarket on site which we ordered fresh croissants and bread every morning and a bigger supermarket in the village as well as a lidl!! We also went to the big hypermarket in Amboise which had everything you would need (I did have to go and buy a duvet as it did get cold at night!!!)
The site is lovely and my kids loved the kids clubs and the swimming pool area although the outside pool was a bit cold I did prefer it to the indoor pool which was like a sauna and full of kids!!!!
We ate in the restaurant once which was very expensive and the drinks onsite are as well so I tended to take the kids drInks with us for the evening entertainment. The evening entertainment was very good and the kids even got he chance to put on a show which they loved! There were plenty of games as well for the kids and the entertainers worked hard to get all the kids involved.
The toilet blocks were ok, not the cleanest I've been too but were ok, I think this was due to one block being open for all the pitches (I saw a couple of blocks closed)
Surrounding area was just lovely visited blois which was beautiful and went to the chateaux, also visited Amboise, did find parking difficult on Market day! We went to the zoo as well which was nice but a bit too hilly for the kids on a very hot day!! We also found lots of picnic spots beside the river and found the tourist info shops we visited were really friendly!
Overall really relaxing holiday due to having happy kids who didn't want to go home!!
