Hi atko, pretty much the same here in North Manchester, not!.

Glad you are having a fab time, makes all the effort of a camping holiday in France worth the while.

Nice site but you are a bit early for the walnuts! We were there at the end of September a couple of years ago and it was still hot during the day but not quite the temps you are experiencing.

We're off to the Dordogne a week on thursday!.. Hope this weather holds (although a little less than 40 would be acceptable!)

Le Paradis posted on Facebook today, 41.5C on 18/8 (last Saturday), hottest day of the year so far). Much too hot for me. Love Le Paradis but would not want to be there in these temperatures.

LOL! No, that was just that hideous year we both ended up practically in adjacent tents in the Loire. That really was a foul summer, wasn't it?

Arrived on Sunday to glorious temperatures. Excellent site booked off the back of reviews.
A little cooler after the weekend but still sun sun sun. Looking forward to the next 10 days!
