Parc de Montsabert–France June 2013

 

We decided to re visit the Loire Valley area again this June, as the last time we visited was about 5 years ago so needed a quick injection of the Loire area again.

Five years ago, when we were staying in this area, we did a few checks on sites for future stays, Le Camping Parc de Montsabert was one such site so we decided to give it a 12 day check out.

The site is in the grounds of the Château de Montsabert. Surrounded by tranquil countryside and vineyard's, in fact 3 were with in walking distance from the main gates of the site.

The site is part of the Yelloh Village group and takes ACSI members, so off season the price is about 16eur per night in a caravan/camper van. No ACSI card and the cost per night will be over 20eur’s (Get a Card)

Facilities on the site are excellent, Pool, bar and loads of stuff for families to do, during the months of July and August, in line with most French site all the facilities step up a few gears with children's entertainment and themed restaurant nights when they serve local dishes. The restaurant it should be said, is really only a snack bar which caters well for holiday makers with families. i.e. pizzas, chip (frites) burgers etc.

Lesley and I visited this a few times. Lesley did her usual 20 lengths and then I joined her or stayed at the poolside bar Smile

I even had a go on the trampolines but the balance is not so good these days and fell on my arse a few times.
