Our customer testimonials and reviews

They share their experience

Patricia W
There is a 4 month(s)
We liked:
Very happy with accommodation. Nice location near the lake. Well-equipped and clean.
We did not like:
I would have expected a better stocked shop, but perhaps this was because we were at the end of the season.
It would have been helpful to have a EV charging point.
Martin B
There is a 5 month(s)
We liked:
The beautiful gardens and shrubs so well tended and looked after.
We did not like:
Restaurant area and food.
Basil John M
There is a 5 month(s)
We liked:
Liked the friendly site. Very good for kids.
We did not like:
Set up an on site shop.
Zaiga Z
There is a 5 month(s)
We liked:
Territory, staff, overall cleanliness efforts, generous and well-shaded pitches, pools
We did not like:
The restaurant is only a bistro, really. We were also surprised, as there was no castle (we've been to a couple of other Les Castels sites, and all of them were actual castles)
Charlotte R
There is a 5 month(s)
We liked:
Lovely big pitches, good clean toilet block and great facilities which kept the children entertained for hours
Donna R
There is a 5 month(s)
We liked:
Nothing
We did not like:
Improve pitch size. Our pitch was supposed to be large but we were squeezed in with no defined borders, people walking through the pitch and washing hanging across a ‘supposed’ border. No privacy at all. Inadequate pitch for the size of our caravan and high cost of it. Inadequate room for parking for adjacent pitches meant cars parked on our pitch on arrival. Too noisy with far too many children running around and on bikes.
