Good Points
Good location yards from an uncrowded beach. Within a few hours reach of 3 or 4 ports.
Bad Points
Very heavily forested. A lot of the accomodation gets very little or no sunshine.
General Comments
Having stayed at Siblu/Haven parks before we were used to a certain standard. This park was different from the rest. A lot of dark and small looking wooden chalets - did not look inviting. We however, stayed in a standard mobile home type accomodation which was fine. We had a problem with our boiler during our stay which was addressed immediately - so no problems with staff on site. Weather was hit and miss but you take your chances in this region.
Close to small seaside town (St. brevin) which is worth a visit and Leclerc supermarket 5 min drive. Unlike other Siblu camps, this was very French with only a handful of English, Irish, Dutch, etc. which was nice. Very small on site shop and smaller than usual bar, etc. On site restaurant is very good and not expensive. Pool not the largest but ok.
Worth visiting Pornic and docks in St. Nazaire (both within 20 mins drive). Lots of nice places to explore on bikes nearby and the beach is fab and stretches for miles.
Not the best park we've visited (Pignade) but worth staying at. I expect it will improve over the next few seasons as the last remains of the previous owner is brought up to Siblu standard
