Hi All, we collect our new caravan in March, after having four years off due to living abroad, and we can't wait!

We have done La Rochelle and Interlaken before, but fancy the South of France (Cote D'azur area or around there) this year.

Can anyone recommend a good place with good facilities (pools/river) for kids that are aged 7, 10 and 11?

Many thanks

Rich

Les Castels have a couple of crackers down there (so I've been told - haven't used them personally)

We've used Les Castels twice now, and are using them again this year. We have been very impressed and would not hesitate to recommend them.

If you want to be away from the coast, take a look at Yelloh Village Park, Greoux les Baines, Haute Provence. 2 pools, riverside, walk to village for supplies. Great site. We use it with our van. Going again in May.

Thanks guys, much appreciated. We used Les Castells in La Rochelle and it was excellent (Seqouia Park).

I will take a look into all of them, thanks again.

If you don't want to travel right down to the deep south, try around Orange and 'Pine Forest Camping' http://www.camping-pinede-provence.com/
Stayed there a number of years ago, but there is lots to see in the area - Orange, Avignon, Mt. Ventoux and a little further down to the south coast. It's cheaper than the south too!

Nice site and domaine du verdon is absolutely stunning, there's a nice town about 1 mile from the site called castellane.
Also you need to visit this village if in the area
