The seasons

The charm of spring - summer - automn - winter


Because of the mild climate in the southwest of France, the Lot-et-Garonne is the ideal department to stay/ reside/ holiday. The large amount of sun hours allows the temperature to be very agreeable from April until October. Because of the occasional shower in spring the surroundings are rich in colour and very green. Every season has its own charm and attracts, for various reasons, different kinds of campers to our campsite.

Below you’ll find the uniqueness of each season.
 


May and June

   

 Everything grows and flourishes and new life begins in the countryside. The sunflowers in the fields start to bloom, fruit trees on the campsite blossom and there is tranquility……lots of tranquility. The combination of peace and quiet, the agreeable temperature and the flowering of nature attracts mainly nature lovers in this period to our campsite. During the day explore the surroundings or try fishing on our campsite and in the evenings join us at our long dinner tables and enjoy the view of a breathtaking sunset with an authentic meal.

During these months there is no regular set activity programme at the campsite, but we’re more than happy to give you information about the activities nearby. In the morning you can enjoy breakfast from our extensive buffet. The swimming pool is at your disposal.


July and August 

The school holidays have started, the days are long and the sun shines on average 9 hours a day. Children enjoy themselves at the swimming pool, the animal farm and around the lake. Every other day there are activities for the young ones to attend. Building wooden huts/ cabins or rafts, painting or making Chinese lanterns.

For both the active and passive sports enthusiast the campsite is at this time of year a real El Dorado. Watch together the Tour the France or arrange a game of petanque, soccer, volleyball or tennis.

At this time of year we have weekly performances in the evening of a known or less known band.
 


September

This time of year is in many respects comparative to May and June. The temperature is agreeable and the sun shines abundantly. Slowly the season is proceeding into automn. The surroundings change into a fantastic display of colours. This is the ideal time to visit in peace and quiet the many markets, chateaux and wine estates where the grape harvest has started.
Of course you’re more than welcome to join us at our long dinner tables and enjoy an authentic meal.
During this season we don’t have an arranged activity programme, but we’re more than happy to provide you with information about the activities in the region.
The swimming pool, off-course, is open. In the morning you can again enjoy breakfast from our extensive buffet
