Camping Campix

I have arrived tonight it has to be worst park I have ever been in so dirty showers and toilets there is lots of tents with music so load no one can sleep I have booked for a week tomorrow I will be leaving the owners seen and herd music didn’t ask them to turn of it’s midnight and music is still on

Très décevant, nous avons subi nous et les autres campeurs ( zone gitehotel et cabane randonneur) une fête de famille pendant le pont de l'Ascension regroupant 3 bungalows avec musique extérieure à fond une bonne partie de la nuit, tapage nocturne gratuit sans aucune action de la part du camping ! De plus, gitehotel très vieillissant, ménage sommaire, nous ne reviendrons pas c'est certain !

Immediate bad vibes about the town as we drove through and even more so when we arrived on site. Town seemed quite derelict and rundown, houses looked dishevelled. We were completely ignored at the desk by the owner(?) who was too busy talking to his friend but they kept looking at me and then continuing to talk - it was rather awkward. My heart sank when I saw the gitotel (number 1) - it looked so rundown. Only security was a padlock on the outside for when you went out and a tiny latch inside when you were in so felt really unsafe. The smell of dump hit us like a wall when we walked in. There were mouldy curtains in the bedrooms (see pic), huge cobwebs/cellar spiders in every single room that I had my husband remove with a broom before I could sleep, full fly strips in the children’s room and in the kitchen - it was just awful. I said to my husband that I wanted to leave but we had just paid what I realise now is a frankly extortionate amount for what the accommodation is (€240 for 2 nights). You can hear every single noise inside because the rooms are tiny and the walls cardboard thin. The gitotels are away from main site so you have to walk on the road to access amenities but the pitches around us still so noisy - it got to midnight and there was loud music playing and children still running around shouting and screaming outside while my own were trying to sleep. The bunks and double bed absolutely tiny, old/dated/smelly bedding which didn’t fit any of the mattresses (just pieces of foam!) and felt almost wet because of the damp. Went to Lidl to try and buy our own bedding (thank goodness brought our own pillows anyway) but it was just as bad in there - low stock levels, mucky shelves and stuff just flung everywhere. In the kitchen there were limited utensils, and no plug in the sink. Was thankful for the clean fridge and working coffee machine however. The site itself is really unkempt - everything a little dated and in need of refurbishment - certainly past its prime. Stray cats wandering around and smell of dog poo was hard to avoid although didn’t see any dogs. The pool area great for the kids but was absolutely freezing cold - kid’s lips were blue. In the town there was some lovely quintessential architecture but quite a rundown location in general. One side of town seemed to be a derelict industrial estate. We saw some some sketchy hitchhiking going on and a family having a screaming match on side of road. We have camped all across France for years and so are used to camping in its truest sense and have never experienced a campsite that we wouldn’t return to, until now unfortunately. My god, was I glad to get out of there - don’t think I’ve ever packed up so quickly. We were just there for a quick stopover on our way further south - had it had been any longer, we would have absolutely sought accommodation elsewhere without a shadow of a doubt. Do not be fooled - as I was - by the glossy website; the photos are probably about
