We did enjoy our stay, but would prefer a better soft seating within the accommodation.

The staff were very helpful when my car would not start to the point where a private car and jump leads arrived. However, the water tap on emplacement 10 could not be turned on (even by a member of your staff) and remained so when we departed.

Accommodation was spotlessly clean, and everything worked - couldn't expect anything more! The facilities are excellent, especially for a young child. We will return!

The staff, the site, the restaurant and its location were are really good. We stayed on 4 different sites and this one was my favourite by far. Love having the private bathroom & kitchen facilities.

High quality accomodation and services in a quiet, family friendly site. Very well placed for the attractions of the Normandy Beaches and inland attractions like Caen and Festyland.

Amazing experience - everything we could expect from a 5 star camping. We had a warm welcome by Johnathan who explained all the important info. The food was great, the pool super clean and the lifeguard was very proactive. No loud music and extremely peaceful. Very close to the beach. All was great!

Great facility, good ambiance and not crowded. Our son really enjoyed the kids club which was not only fun but also educational. We loved how involved with the local area and community the animations are.

Excellent camping. We stayed (with 5) in a 6-persons mobile home in the Omaha section, which was modern, very clean and comfortable. Staff in the bar and the restaurant are very friendly and helpful. Location is good, close to the beach...
