We Returned here after 15 years. We were camping in a Large Bell Tent. On our last visit Electric Hook-up was not available to tents, but on this occasion, we were offered it. We Declined it as I had a Solar Panel and Battery Pack to power Lighting, Fridge and cPAP. Pitches are large and spacious, and generally Flat, but for larger tents such as ours, we did experience a slight slope. Many of the tents on site were small 2-man tents and would not have found this a problem. Reservations are recommended for Caravans and Motorhomes, as people were being turned away. We were quoted €2532 with Electricity or €19. 02 with out, per night for 2 people, Car and Tent.
Our Pitch was on the banks of the river, with delightful views first thing in the morning and in the evening, and was very peaceful watching the wildlife, despite being a city Centre site.
Security was good, with 24-hour Security Guards on site. At night Gates are Locked, and you had to ring the bell to be let in. Whilst this was normally a matter of minutes, they could do with a Canopy outside the gate to protect you from the rain.
Staff were very helpful, with Laundry Facilities on site and Washing Lines scattered across the site, there Was a Bar and Restaurant on site, whilst we did not eat there, the food looked very good, and reasonably priced. Wi-Fi was available through out the site, but as far as I could tell, there was only 1 Log on per person, so I could not Connect both our Phones and Tablets. I believe there was children’s Play equipment, Table Tenis Tables and Pétanque available, but did not pay much attention to these details.
The Location was very convenient and was about a 10-minute walk to the Cathedral, from there everything within the old City Walls, was no further than a 10 min walk. Please Note the N81/N83 were free buses which could be used to take you from one side of the city to the other, each could be boarded at opposite ends of the square outside of the Tourist information.
The Only concern / observation I would make is that at Check-in / Check-out gets congested, particularly from about 11am, as people Queue to leave, check in, and vehicles soon build up. This process could be improved.
Overall, an excellent site, and we will be returning, and we will not be leaving it for 15 years.
Reserved for one night, but on arrival, our booking could not be found, despite us producing copy of their email confirmation.
We were allocated what was described as a 'large pitch', but this turned out to be part of the tarmac roadway around the site which had been marked off with painted white lines and a pitch number. Unfortunately, other campers regarded this bit of road as still open and tried squeezing their units past our parked motorhome.
Complained to reception and asked for a different pitch, as the site wasn't full, but they seem to have a policy of refusing any request to change pitch (see other reviews).
They did, however, find a small barrier to block off the space beside our motorhome, although other campers continued to stare at our unit apparently blocking a roadway.
Site facilities were OK, with water and electric near each pitch. Clean sanitary block but too few WCs. On-site shop had takeaway chicken and chips on sale in the evening and bread in the morning.
Perhaps, if we had been given a different pitch, we would have given this site a higher rating.
The city is gorgeous - great architecture and a cafe-style buzz. Cathedral is a must-see.
The campsite is in a great location although hard to find and not well signposted at the last mile.
Facilities are good although at the moment (sept 2016) there are temporary showers /loos and the toilets in these are en panne. Also the adjacent public swimming pool is shut until end September.
Also please make sure you bully your way past the officious reception staff and chose a pitch first. I asked (in French) if I could chose and was told that I would be told where to park (yet - and I love our French cousins - French families seemed to be allowed to chose their pitch). We were put next to the large scale building works on a uni building which commenced each day at 8am.
Otherwise very good spot and we spent 3 days exploring and enjoying Metz.
As I write this I am sitting in the early morning sun in this beautiful site in the equally beautiful city.
The campsite is along the river surrounded by trees, the pitches are huge with water and electricity at each place.
On site shop bar and restaurant available at certain times, fresh bread and pastries can be ordered for next morning.
The site costs us €24 for two adults and dog with motorhome and electricity if you intend to just turn up here I would ring ahead as it's very popular and they are turning people away as it gets full, building work nearby has caused them to lose a lot of pitches, anyway I recommend %100
Visited this site on the outward and return of our trip. On the return we stayed an extra night so as to have a good look round the old town of Metz.
Access was good albeit bang in the centre of town next to the River Moselle. English was spoken but we managed to communicate well in 'Yorkshire French' :-)
Plenty of pitches available both flat and sloping. Toilets were clean and showers were free, bread was available to order from the shop/restaurant on site. A vets was within a 10 minute walk for those with animals in need of their passports stamping (Clinique Vétérinaire Saint Bernard 15 rue de Paris 57000 Metz)
All in all a good stop over or longer site which is highly recommended
Situated by the river, this is a long narrow site. It was very busy when we arrived & we were given a tiny pitch behind reception, just enough room for our campervan.
As we walked (less than 10 minutes stroll) into town for a meal it wasn't a problem (lots of restaurants). We were approached by a member of staff when we arrived back, checking we were campers, which I found reassuring.
The toilet block closest to us was a portacabin, but clean.
We did struggle to find it as the one way system has changed & our satnav couldn't cope, but some very helpful policeman helped & even stopped the traffic for us to turn found!
We would stay again if in the area.
