Alan Rogers Review
Purpose-built in a wooded area on the outskirts of Royan and opened in 2012, les Chèvrefeuilles has 85 level, grassy pitches, separated by freshly planted bushes and hedging. Forty-five are for tourers, all with 16A electricity. A few extra large pitches (200 sq.m) are available and there are 40 mobile homes for hire. The aim of the friendly, English-speaking manager is to ensure that the site remains peaceful and tranquil. The beaches and all the attractions of Royan and Saint Palais-sur-Mer are within easy reach. The open sea and the Gironde Estuary provide endless opportunities for swimming, sailing and watersports, and the port is a starting point for a variety of boat trips.
Royan’s public golf course, a Thalassotherapy Centre and two tennis clubs are close at hand, as is a Riding Academy catering for beginners of all ages, as well as experienced riders. Cyclist and walkers, or indeed motorists, can explore the region’s hillsides, marshes, forests and vineyards. The wines of Charente can be tasted at a nearby cave. From Royan, a car ferry would enable an enthusiast to cross the mouth the Gironde estuary for a day exploring the vineyards of Médoc.
