- Gerhard P.June 2024AdvantagesBarrier worked perfectly!NegativesUnfriendly staff - we were told that there was only one pitch left and that it cost around €76 plus €7.50 for poorly functioning wifi (2 days) despite having an ACSI card. There were 12 free pitches in our area alone. The pitch itself was almost impassable as it was totally muddy after rain. The taps in the sanitary area didn't work and the light wasn't even sufficient for shaving. There are several campsites in France on our trip in June 2024 with much better facilities and only 3 stars. The place is absolutely overpriced!Surprise at registrationI have already described this rating under the disadvantages. The space is absolutely overrated and the great designer mirrors in the sanitary area cannot hide the poor taps and the poorly lit washbasins, e.g. for smaller people.Automatically translated.
- Michael Z.June 2018AdvantagesDefinitely suitable for families with small children. Swimming pool and playground.NegativesConsiderable distance from the castle. Muddy pitches. Staff tries to sell expensive pitches (no difference to standard).CP not as indicated near the castle of ChambordActual distance to Chambord entrance approx. 7 km. Staff try to sell comfort pitches (plus 10 euros). But they are just like the standard pitches. The pitch is extremely muddy after rain. Hundreds of pigeons on the pitch with corresponding noise and dirt. Sanitary facilities averagely clean. Certainly not a 4 or 5 star pitch.Automatically translated.
- Harald B.August 2017AdvantagesClose to the castles of the Loire, large swimming poolNegativesPitches and sanitary facilities completely unkempt and dirtyCertainly not againLuckily we had only booked for one night as we were passing through from Normandy. Compared to the site there and the one after, this site was absolutely unacceptable in terms of cleanliness and maintenance. The beautiful large swimming pool was completely overcrowded and therefore a constant source... of noise. The pizzeria, bar and restaurant made a very bad, dingy and overpriced impression. You had to be careful not to get stuck in the sanitary facilities, no matter what time of day. The camping store had everything you needed, far more than basic supplies, with freshly replenished supplies early in the morning, but totally bad-tempered, grumpy staff. The new operator, SANDAYA, should not rest on its laurels but replace the gardeners and cleaning staff.Automatically translated.
- Detlef B.June 2017AdvantagesProximity to Chambord CastleNegativesNoneChambord CastleWe chose the campsite because of its proximity to Chambord Castle. It's no problem to get there by bike. You simply have to see the castle. The reception was very nice. Super swimming pool, shady pitches. Restaurant, tourist information, bike rental, self-service store, sauna and playground with bouncy... castle are on site. We really liked it there. However, the neighboring village has nothing to offer. Thanks to ACSI Card approx. 19.00 € with two people per nightAutomatically translated.
- Alfred G.June 2016AdvantagesBeautiful place with many leisure activities.NegativesMosquitoes!!!Good starting point for visiting Chambord CastleWell-equipped campsite with everything a vacationer needs. Large swimming pool and other leisure facilities. Tourist information on site. Unfortunately, we had to flee inside the motorhome early because of the many mosquitoes. A "mosquito snake" from the store provided some relief.Automatically translated.
- Jürgen Z.August 2015AdvantagesBeautiful locationNegativesNoise from the entertainers Unreasonably high price Poorly designed sanitary facilitiesLoud and expensiveIt is actually a beautiful place, situated on the edge of the forest of Chambord Castle. But.... Despite the quiet location, it is very noisy, as the (in our opinion mainly English) entertainers always tried (and succeeded) to outdo the groups of children they were looking after in terms of volume. A... sergeant in a military movie would have been envious... The sanitary facilities (at least in the two blocks near our pitch) are mostly open, so that the wind blows through quite well. Unfortunately, there was plenty of it on the day we arrived, combined with a brief drop in temperature. Showering was no longer a pleasure. One or two days later, this would not have bothered anyone because the temperatures had risen considerably (>30°). The combination of noise from the pitch in the evening and morning (it was very quiet at night), unreasonably high prices and inadequate sanitary facilities made us look for another pitch right after the first night.Automatically translated.
- Hans-Werner V.September 2014AdvantagesThe campsite is a great starting point for visiting the castles and towns along the Loire.NegativesRelatively expensive.Good starting point for Loire shoots. Good place to stay overnight.The site is very large. Due to its location near the A10 highway, it is very suitable for overnight stays. We stayed there both on the outward journey to the south of France (1 night) and on the return journey (2 nights). The place seems to be popular with guests from England; the proportion of guests... from there during our short stays must have been 70-80% - accordingly, everything, including menus, is also labeled in English. The restaurant is quite good; however, the service was overwhelmed by the number of guests (perhaps the service was understaffed). While the restaurant was still open on our outward journey (end of August), it was already closed on our return journey (8/10/09/2014); at this time only the - also quite good - pizzeria was still open. In the high season there is likely to be a lot of hustle and bustle due to the strong family orientation; this is also indicated by the references to the entertainment. The pool area is very impressive with at least 4 pools and 3 slides. The campsite is located between two roads, but the traffic is hardly disturbing. During the day, the noise of the campsite predominates. At night, the traffic is so low that it does not disturb sleep in a caravan/motorhome.Automatically translated.Answered from Camping Sandaya - Le Château Des Marais October 16, 2014Thank you for your interest in our school.

Pas d animation, pas d accueilTrès déçueTrès déçues de notre séjour. Emplacement en tente très bien, propreté des sanitaires aussi. Machine à laver à 6 euros !!!! Accueil nul, ne vous emmene même pas au emplacement. Activities for children all in English or French, no screens in French, even on July 14th there is a retraite au lampion with... English chants. Match de la coupe du monde retransmis ok, mais a peine la coupe ds les bras des joueurs on vous coupe la télé. Bref pour un prix exhorbitant on attend autre chose.

Thank you for your interest in our establishment.
In view of your comment it would appear that you stayed with us through a foreign agency or tour operator.
It's true that the majority of our customers are of English and Dutch nationality, but we attach great importance to recruiting locally so... that all our employees are bilingual in French and English.
For many years now, we've also had a small French team on hand to provide entertainment for our guests.
If you are interested in staying with us in the future, please do not hesitate to contact our reservations department directly at 02.54.87.05.42 and/or info@camping-marais.com.
Yours sincerely

- Lucía G.August 2011Mi mala valoración no es por las instalaciones sino por el trato recibido. Una encargada mayor, sin saber que hablábamos francés, nos insultó varias veces pues sin querer bloqueamos la entrada con la caravana. Para pasar poco tiempo no lo recomiendo pues es muy caro, pagas la gran piscina que tienen y la situación, muy cerca de Chambord. lo que tengo claro es que no volveré.Automatically translated.
