Very quiet spot beside the pond. We were alone for the night. A few walkers pass by, but the place remains very peaceful. Perfect for a quiet night.
Great spot! Quiet, flat and shaded—the perfect place. No traffic, right next to two small ponds. Covered and uncovered picnic tables, a bench and toilets. I highly recommend it, 10/10.
Quiet place, toilet available, water and a pleasant view of the small lakes.
A great view, clean facilities and a quiet place.
We found the road long, but it is really worth it! There is space for 20 vans, each 50 meters apart! Everything is well mowed, with a lake and ducks, and one restroom. In short, paradise for simple people! Thanks to the municipality for maintaining this.
The correct GPS point to access it is 47.865936,-0.609117. Otherwise Google Maps sends you to the other side, onto private property! Quiet and bucolic place; if you have a dog, it will love the freedom. Shade and sun—you can choose! We did not test the toilets, as we are self-sufficient. A very peaceful night, lulled by the chorus of frogs.
Use only the GPS coordinates; the address is incorrect. Very pleasant, very quiet spot. Clean toilet, picnic tables and a ping-pong table.
Two small lakes, perfect calm, many superb and level places to park up. water options to fill a jerry can, or if your hose is long enough there is a screw fitting tap to fill onboard tanks. Toilets as clean as you could wish for. picnic tables all around both lakes. Definitely on our favourites list.
Quiet place, water, toilet and table. Possibility of parking around the lake; height barrier at 2.17 meters. Otherwise, the parking area is five meters from the pond.
A very quiet spot, as everyone says. However, beware: the app's GPS address is completely wrong, making it very difficult to find the place. Try this GPS point: 47.86399° N, 0.60866° W. Kind regards, David.
May 2024 - Lovely spot by the lake with fishing possible (go into small nearby town to buy permit (€3) from lady in shop). Reasonably okay toilet and nice surrounding area. No traffic noise, very quiet apart from frogs.
