Des Canards - Chef-Boutonne

We stayed here for 1 night on 30th December 2023 (corrected from early January 2024) on our drive down to Spain. The site was clean and well maintained and the owner was friendly, but it was very disappointing that the electricity supply to 3 caravans/motorhomes tripped out in the early evening and the owner was unavailable (the trip switch was inaccessible to us). As a result we were left using our on board power despite paying for a pitch with electricity included. The neighbour on the adjacent pitch explained that this wasn’t an isolated incident. Additionally, WiFi was charged at €4 per day per device, and the shower push button had to be held in permanently to obtain a consistent water supply (ineffective timer device fitted). Overall I won’t be returning to this campsite as I feel it was expensive for the services received and not value for money.

Stayed for 2 nites on route to spain great staff and owners of the site

Excellent hosts, lovely food and a great fun quiz night , well worth the visit

First time visit. Thoroughly enjoyed our evening event and our meals.

We loved this site so much we had two trips in a month there. Having read the previous reviews, the service we received was fantastic! A mixture of French, Dutch and English campers all mixing together. Staff very friendly. Restaurant was lovely, we ate there lots and took part in the quiz night... Good fun! Very good for dogs lovers... our 4 dogs loved it and we're made to feel very welcome. A gem of a site ... and we definitely will be back!
