 Beautiful, quiet location a 15 minute walk from a small town with everything, including an Aldi.

Very accommodating hosts, lots of room for campervans or tents with power and water.

Use of toilet and shower in adjacent Gite which is lovely.

Suit people looking to get away from everything.

Reviewer: Leoniers 1 review from this member

 This site was very convenient for our ferry crossing from Caen. Sue, the owner, couldn't have been more welcoming.

The site is set in rolling French countryside and very peaceful and is well equipped.

Chateau la Garenne is a working farm with Sue's pride and joy, her beautiful horses.

Highly recommend.

 Sue is an amazing host. Very friendly and a real storyteller.

The campsite is simple and beautiful.

Inoperative she can keep it that way for a long, long time!

 Fabulous place to stay. Set close by to a delightful village with lots of shops and a great brasserie which served excellent food at a very reasonable price.

The chateau was beautiful with a gite and owned by a wonderful couple, very generous with their knowledge and time.

Looking forward to returning in the future

 Wonderful, warm and friendly hosts who were great with communication.

A great location, with a spectacular panorama across the countryside. Very easy to find, even at night and near to a picturesque town with all the facilities (including supermarkets that open on a Sunday).

Ideally placed for our first night on the road after disembarking from the ferry at Caen.

Electric hook up was good to have. You'll need to have your own washing and toilet facilities which we didn't have as first timers in a rented VW campervan.

Nevertheless our hosts were brilliant in helping us to find a workaround for the night. Hope to return sometime soon!

Thank you, thank you.

Reviewer: Davean 1 review from this member

 Liked: Friendly reception. Easy access and convenient for Caen ferry.

Disliked: High price - 30 Euros/night in November for a site with very limited facilities which consisted of electric hook up, water, waste/chemical disposal, one toilet in a shed full of garden equipment with no hand basin.

No showers. (on the morning we were leaving we were offered the used of the gite shower for an extra 5 euros)

Lack of site lighting.

Reviewer: Jojo1122 2 reviews from this member

 We found the campsite and was so impressed with how friendly the owners where and they made us feel so welcome. They showed us where we could walk the dogs and set up electricity. They spoke openly about France which was lovely to hear about and the chateau they had restored and out buildings.

We will definitely go back. I gave a 8 for site facilities only because its limited but that's the beauty of it.

There is toilets water and electricity.

There was a village where you could get food or restaurant but we didn't need this but it was there if we did

 Simple campsite on a farm, but with everything you need.

The village with restaurants and shops is only 1. 5 km away.

The hosts are really great. Warm welcome and nice conversations included.

If you are looking for a place away from the hustle and bustle, this is the place for you. Thank you for the good hospitality.

 Excellent stop in beautiful grounds. Lots of horses and the Owners Sue and Steve along with Rob are so welcoming.

On arrival invited us in for a cup of tea and then showed us around the stables with 2 new fouls.

The stories that Sue has to tell are fantastic and as somebody recently said is like "A Box of Frogs".

No showers but being in a Motorhome this is not a problem. Will definitely stay again when passing through this area.

Two great Restaurants in town which is 18mins walk on the road into town. No pavement on some of the road.

Reviewer: Ejlivi 1 review from this member

 Staying here was a remarkable experience.

The site is small in the grounds of a chateau but with all necessary facilities.

The nearby town has a good restaurant and a supermarket but none of these things are remarkable.

The great thing was the welcome from the owner who was very friendly and helpful and invited us all to a barbecue dinner in her garden. It was a great evening.

Our pitch was grass but overlooking a stable with a group of white highland ponies and their foals.

I have no hesitation in recommending this site if you are looking for something unusual but very enjoyable.
