Domaine de la Forge

We stayed in mobile Home #320 for a week in June 2023. It was pre season so a lot of were not "season ready yet" Overall the stay was good but we did not do much at the Domaine de la Forge other than sleeping. The pool is nice and heated. The kids had fun petting the goats. There are multisports courts (you will have to leave an ID to borrow balls, etc but there wasn't a soccer ball when my son asked). Minigolf is OK (pretty old). Overall the grounds were OK, it could use some clean up (lot of weeds in the aisles and gravel areas for example). Internet was very spotty and limited to one device per family at the time. It was so unpractical that we could not use it all our stay (we used our data instead). This should be improved because which family only has one device to be connected nowadays. The quality of connection is terrible (stronger signals are needed), when we went we could not connect, it was slow (and this is not even in full season). The mobile home itself was clean. It was pretty small for the 5 of us with barely any room to move around the beds in the bedrooms. There was good AC though and good natural lighting, Washing machine, dishwasher, fridge, microwave and cooking stove (electric) were all very good. There was no soap for dishwasher, or hand soap in bathrooms or kitchen provided, no sponge or extra trash bags provided either you will have to bring these or purchase all of this. The cleaning fee is expensive for the size of the mobile home and you can clean by yourself (brooms were provided). The location to go to the beaches, Arcachon or Cazaux is convenient. It was easy to get to places from the Camping. The site was very secure with a guard at night and fenced entrances. Overall it was an OK stay, a little expensive for what we get vs renting an Air B&B with everything (linen, towel, soaps, etc) provided. We would stay there again but only if other option are unavailable.

Campeurs passez votre chemin. Attiré par l'entrée et l'emplacement nous nous sommes présentés pour un emplacement Van et tente. Accueilli par un "nous ne faisons pas ça ici" très hautain et froid ce camping n'en est pas un. Il s'agit plutôt d'hôtellerie de plein air. Malgré les apparences ce n'est pas un camping. Visiblement le moindre espace a été aménagé pour des bungalows beaucoup plus rentables qu'un emplacement nu.

De retour d'un WE de 4 j au domaine de la forge pour lequel nous sommes un peu déçus. Pas très reposant car situé juste à côté de l'aérodrome. Les hélicoptères tournent presque minuit et commencent des 9h30 le matin. Mobil-home spacieux et bien équipé. Propreté pas top. de nombreuses pistes cyclables. Emplacement spacieux et très bien entretenu.
