Princely camping in the Loire Valley

A royal camping holiday is possible at Sandaya Château des Marais campsite in the Loire Valley, less than 10 minutes from Chambord's impressive Renaissance castle.

Garden of France

Relax or get active

On the Sandaya Château des Marais campsite you can enjoy a lovely water park with several heated pools, a river lagoon, slides and a water playground, for hours of swimming fun. The entertainment team offers games, creative activities, sports tournaments and themed evenings, especially for young people in the Kids, Juniors and Teens Club. De-stress in the wellness centre, including private area. If you're a more active person, use the multisports court, bouncy castle or go-karts.

Beautiful French heritage

Outside the campsite you can canoe or kayak. Or what about a balloon ride? And that's not all you can do in this area, just ask at the reception. One thing is clear: the castles of the Loire are seen as the most treasured part of French heritage. And you'll find them here!

Camping was over het algemeen goed, alleen als je uitgaat van de getoonde foto’s kom je een beetje bedrogen uit, met name het zwembad en onderhoud. Dat lijkt veel grootser, mooier en schoner dan in werkelijkheid.
Chalet was verder netjes en schoon, ook het park zelf was netjes verzorgd met aankleding van planten ed.
Wel kan het park zelf wat onderhoud gebruiken, lik verf hier en daar.
Restaurant is niet bijzonder qua eten.
De snackcorner nodigt niet uit om daar je eten af te halen en ook niet om er ‘gezellig’ te zitten. Als er wat meer aandacht wordt besteed aan opfrissen en afwerking, trekt dat al veel meer klandizie.
Speeltoestellen voor zo’n grote camping viel ook tegen.

Conclusie, we hebben een leuke vakantie gehad, maar op de foto’s zag het er wel anders uit dan in werkelijkheid.

Familiecamping, netjes verzorgd. Er word veel gedaan door het animatieteam, echter spreekt deze alleen Frans, aangegeven dat het erg fijn zou zijn als er ook Engels gesproken zou worden. Zodat het voor kinderen ook aantrekkelijker word om mee te doen. Hier werd helaas niets mee gedaan.

Luxe camping met voornamelijk huur accommodaties. Veel gezinnen met jonge kinderen tot 15jr. Veel Nederlanders aanwezig, personeel spreekt Frans en Engels. Prachtige schaduwrijke plekken, overzichtelijk en super (verwarmd) zwembad.

Fijne camping, er heerst een prettige rustige sfeer. Mooie schaduwrijke plaatsen. Enige minpunt waren de duiven, die werkelijk overal hun behoefte op deden …
