What customers say

A super clean, well-kept site with lekker staff, great service and a chilled vibe. Spacious spots, good facilities (heated indoor pool!), handy shop nearby. Restaurant and bar get a thumbs up too. Minor Wi-Fi hiccups and some temporary workers mentioned, but most folks loved it and will be back!

Electric optional grass and earth pitch

Liked Communication from Anna was excellent, site was well kept and I’m sure it would be a lovely stay during the peak season.
Lauren in reception was really kind and helped us to get our vehicle started after a light had been left on overnight and flattened our battery.

Electric optional grass and earth pitch

Liked Nothing we did not stay.

Disliked The reception was closed even though we gave an arrival time. We could not find any staff.

The swimming pool was empty!

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Dear Amy,
We were quite surprised to read your review, especially since we were present at the campsite from exactly 8:01 a.m. to 6:46 p.m on October 9th.
When we’re not at the office, a 24/7 phone number, clearly displayed on the reception door, allows guests to reach us at any time.
Furthermore, as clearly indicated on both Pitchup the swimming pool is open from May 1st to September 30th. Your stay being on October 9th, it had already been closed for the season.
We always do our best to make sure our guests have all the necessary information before their arrival. Should you decide to visit again, please don’t hesitate to call us when you arrive.

Liked Easy to book, warm welcome and an altogether fantastic stay. We enjoyed incredible fresh croissants that we ordered for the morning. There was plenty for the little children and teens to do. Pool was clean and worked so well for us. We enjoyed a delicious meal in the restaurant. Thank you team Pindière!

Local attractions

Fably ancient Nantes, once the capital of ancient Brittany (and felt by many still to be its true capital) is an excellent option for a few day trips, to its famed Château des Ducs de Bretagne with the city's history museum; the Cathedral of St Peter and St Paul; the medieval Bouffay district and the museum of Jules Verne. (If your tastes are more modern, stroll among the swish boutiques of the nineteenth century Passage Pommeraye.) The Camping La Pindière team insists that the city's Jardin des Plantes de Nantes is also a must, the botanical gardens and tropical greenhouses spread over seven hectares and covering three centuries of botany built up by sailors bringing seeds from all over the globe. Animal fans have much to keep them entertained in the region too, such as the underwater tunnel at the huge aquarium Océarium in Croisic, the Planète Sauvage animal park in Port-Saint-Père, La Boissière du Doré zoo and the Sealand Aquarium in Noirmoutier.
