We have had a 14 night stay here July 2010, our party consisted of 2 caravans a twin axle and smaller caravan with awning and bedroom annex and 6 adults. This is not our first visit; we stumbled upon it in 2007 staying for 8 nights, then again in 2008.
This English owned site will not appeal to all, it’s like a CL site with 10 pitches situated in the front grounds of a very old farm house, with the outer buildings converted into 3 Gites, a small one suitable for 2, then a mid size one for 4 and a very large one which can accommodate up to 8, which are all to a high standard. Suitable for non camping family & friends.
It is in the middle of a forest, ideal for the chill out type holiday and will appeal to walkers, cyclists. Nearest small town with supermarket, butchers are about 5 miles away.
This site is surrounded with a good maintained fence making it ideal for children. It has a central play area, with slide, swings, tree house. The pitches are around the perimeter edge of the fence? Some without electricity and the rest with, this is reflected in the tariff. It also has a small elevated, dip pool which is not manned, but if children are on site the steps are removed as a safety precaution and an adult must ask for them to be reinstalled for use.
The facilities have had a makeover for this season, consists of 1 WC (also used for chemical waste disposal), 1 Shower, 1 combined WC/shower, also 3 partitioned wash hand basins, with individual mirrors. Perhaps another shower, would be welcomed, as in peak times it could represent a problem, or use your own in the caravan, if you have one?
New for this season is a fully equipped Campers Kitchen, which has a sink for vegetable preparation, fridge/freezer, microwave, gas cooker with oven, washing machine; it is also used as the information centre, book & magazine exchange. The kitchen is free to use, between 08:00hrs & 22:00hrs, but there is a charge for washing powder for the machine. On one side of this are the recycling bins, plastic, glass, and cardboard/paper. On the other side are 2 Belfast type sinks for washing up, cold water only? But you can get hot water from the toilets if needed, with supplied bowl. Also general waste and fresh water supply. The owners offer 3 meals a week if there are enough campers who want to take part, this is chargeable, and is a good socializing event, a Sunday brunch serving local foods, and two 4 course meals with drinks on a Monday and Friday evening.
The surrounding area is full of history, from chateaus, museums, vineyards, zoo’s etc. As above this area is not the get up and go type holiday, but a step back type holiday when, there is always tomorrow to do things?

We visited Le Chant in June for 11 nights, based on the excellent feedback we had seen on UKCampsite and we were not disappointed. We had a wonderful holiday, on arrival Stu & Syb met us at the gate (along with an excited Bracken the dog!) and made us feel at home, with the offer of a cold beer or a cup of tea whilst we pitched up. The facilities were excellent, the Kampers Kitchen was particularly useful, with a full fridge freezer, oven, washing machine, kettle and hob at our disposal. The washing facilities were kept very clean and nothing was too much trouble to ask from the owners, from helping us book train tickets for our day trip to Paris to suggestions for days out. The variety of wildlife on the site was wonderful, we saw so many different birds and enjoyed meeting the owners pets too! The pool was greatly enjoyed for a cool dip after a long day in the sun. Twice a week food is served to all guests in the walled barn, we greatly enjoyed this as it gave us the opportunity to socialise with other like minded people and to make new friends. We spent a lot of time on site during the day, relaxing, taking in the fresh air and peace and quiet. I would thoroughly recommend if you would like to get away from it all, and to experience the true relaxed lifestyle that France has to offer.

Welcoming, Peaceful, Tranquil, Relaxing, Friendly. Just some of the words to describe this site, actually it was more than a camping site and that was due immensely to the dedication and attention to detail by the owners Stu & Syb. From the moment you arrive you are made to feel at home, greeted with a cup of tea or coffee and a friendly chat.
The site itself is enchanting, you can just sit and listen to the birds, over 80 different breeds have been seen, watch the world go by and just relax. I managed to see some wild deer wandering through the woods by the site as well. The pitches are spacious and give you both shade and sun. The Site itself is beautiful and quiet, situated in a beautiful part of France with many places to visit. There is a Supermarket 10-15 minutes away by car. Bread and Croissants can be ordered and are delivered to the site. Stu & Syb can offer meals twice a week giving you a chance to not only put your feet up but also to meet some of the other people staying there and they do make it a wonderful evening. The ‘Kampers kitchen’ is a brilliant idea giving you access to a fully fitted kitchen if needed. There is a play area in the middle of the site allowing young children to play but always in the view of the parents. The pool is lovely to jump in to cool down and is only a few feet away. The showers and toilets are kept very clean and tidy.
Although we didn’t stay in the Gites we were shown around all 3 and they are charming, again you can see the attention to detail and the thought that has gone into each one. We stayed during the world cup and they opened up one of the Gites so that we could all watch the world cup if we wanted to.
This was perfect for us and we loved every minute of our stay and it was a real wrench to leave. At some point we will be going back having felt that we have stayed with friends rather than just at another camp site.
Thank you Stu & Syb for a wonderful time, our only regret was that it was not long enough.

Spent five nights on this site in March and had a wonderful time. We arrived following a straight drive from Calais and had a warm welcome from Stu & Syb.
The site was small, 10 pitches, which are placed around the edge of the site leaving a play area in the middle. There is a small outdoor swimming pool on site but due to time of the year it had been emptied.The toilet facilities were basic but always clean and warm, there was one shower unit.
The site is out in the countryside and is very quiet. It is a short drive to the shops at Vernantes. Across the road is a wooded area with some lovely walks and lots of wild life. Ideal area for walking and cycling.
Overall a nice site for a quiet break. We will certainly be going back to visit again.

We had the most wonderful two weeks at this site. Stu and Syb are fantastic hosts and we instantly felt at home. A cup of tea whilst pitching and drinks for the kids were gratefully received.
The site has 10 pitches facing into a central play area. There are a tree house, swings, net for badminton, splash pool, table tennis and pool table. Our boys, 6 and 11, had brilliant fun as they had complete freedom to play with their friends in safety.
Twice a week guests are invited to dine together while Stu and Syb cook and serve the evening meal. This is a really sociable site and we met many fantastic people whom we hope to stay in touch with.
The toilets and showers will have been updated by summer 2010 so future guests will benefit from lovely new facilities.
There is plenty to do nearby, however, many days we simply relaxed and drank in the peace and tranquility of Le Chant d'Oiseau!

Back to work after 15 fabulous nights on the site. Can only agree with all the other reviews about the site, the owners and the area.We picked the site because of these and we weren't disappointed.
From the moment we arrived and downed the first drinks provided by Stu and Syb they never stopped being friendly and helpful.Stu worked hard to keep us informed of activities going on in the area, it was very hard to leave.
Facilities were adequate and met our needs and the furture plans for a campers kitchen and extra bathroom can only enhance anyones stay.The extra fridge and freezer were very useful too.
The organised meals and wine tasting evenings went down a treat especially with our 15yr old who is such a fussy eater (he ate Syb out of goats cheese). Serious diet required after all the gorgeous bread and pastries each morning, we had to try them all. The younger children are well entertained with play equipment even our 17yr and 15yr old giants weren't bored. We would recommend this site to anyone and will definitely return and might even try the gites as they looked fab. The local villages were very friendly and the bars always welcoming and only a short bike ride away. Nearby lakes were busy at weekends but we always found a spot to relax.
