Bilan moyen
Problème à l'arrivée: Au moment de régler la facture totale, on a tenté de nous faire payer le prix réel du séjour et non celui de la réservation: nous étions 4 adultes et un enfant de 2 ans, on nous a indiqué que le prix de la réservation était pour 2 adultes et qu'il fallait rajouter 2 adultes et un enfant, soit une augmentation de 15%. Il a fallu négocier âprement pour qu'à terme une réduction de 10% nous soit faite. Chalet vieillot mais propre, literie correcte (1 lit 2 places et 2 x 2 lits individuels superposés), douche ayant besoin d'être rénovée. Table branlante qui a du être très fortement consolidée pendant notre séjour. Eclairage dans le séjour très "intime" (difficile de voir dans son assiette!) Matériel de cuisine minimaliste Belle terrasse bien ombragée, vue sur la rivière, Piscine pas très grande mais bien entretenue

Toller Zwischenstopp, da beginnt schon der Urlaub!
Wir waren auf der ‚Durchreise‘ auf dem Weg nach Südwest-Frankreich hier und wären sehr begeistert. DerPlatz ist schön angelegt, ruhig und naturnah. Zum Baden gibt es nicht nur den Pool sondern den herrlichen Fluss, strömumgsarm und kalt! Wir würden definitiv wiederkommen! Und die Autobahnbrücken hat uns überhaupt gar nicht gestört!

Très bon séjour
Sejour très agréable (une nuit d'étape), dans un bungalow. La piscine est très bien entretenue, grande et chaude. Le camping est très boisé et il est agréable, situé près d'une charmante rivière. Le personnel est sympathique et à l'écoute.

De vraies infos
Bon accueil, dîner sympa ( magret de canard sur pierre chaude ) patron aux petits soins. Diffèrence entre le descriptif sur internet et la réalité, pas de drap ( service payant) ni de serviettes. Le wifi ne fonctionne qu’à l’acceuil. Essayer de mettre vos informations à jour. Merci.
