- The location is perfect but we only ever saw a Eurocamp currier when we went to find one. I even had to collect my own welcome pack and essential pack that we’d bought and paid for in advance.

An award-winning seaside resort
Looking for a taste of the French seaside? Then Bénodet is the place for you. This resort is made for lovers of the outdoors, with a coastal promenade that’s lined with restaurants, pedalos and beach clubs.
Settle into La Pointe St-Gilles and you’ll soon see why we’ve been coming to this family-run, eco-friendly parc for over 40 years. You’ll find a small beach just outside the entrance, while the bustling resort of Bénodet is a short, coastal walk away. On parc there’s a health spa and beauty centre, a large pool complex, a Jacuzzi and regular evening entertainment. If you fancy exploring the local area, hop on the tourist train that will pick you up on parc and take you to the nearby town or beach.

- Not too shabby
Accommodation is dated and at the end of its life unless you rent the Avant range ( for this money you could go all incl.!) For this reason we felt like we’d been short changed - booked a 5* hotel but ended up in 3* . This is evident when you compare what you got alongside the newer Vans owned by Sunelia onsite.
Pool is good but everyone who went in cut their feet (aqua shoes are needed) ! Site is suitable for families with kids under 10 as it caters for them excellently.
Wi-fi is poor as is 3G/4G signal as everyone is using the bandwidth unless you’re up before 7 or awake after 11 pm.
Park is large and is busy. We enjoyed the kids clubs and access is to a sports area with a Tennis court, 3 Pentanque courts, a basket / football and netball courts and 3 table tennis tables.
Other pluses are that’s its near the beaches and 1km from Benodet centre along a new footpath/promenade.
I personally would not use Eurocamp again based on their lack of understanding about what the modern camper expects from their accommodation and a lack it senior staff on site!
All in all the area and local sites / restaurants were wonderful

- Fantastic holiday. Caravan bathrooms could have been cleaner. But what a fab family experience x

- A brilliant park, with great facilities. Maintenance around the van was poor, we had a window that wouldn’t lock, the courier turned up to fix it with a Potato Peeler. He then told us they only had one screwdriver and someone else was using it. Gate was also falling off the hinges, which was fixed when a courier spotted it.
Overall, it was a great holiday

- Overall a very well equipped site with everything you would need for a good holiday. A short walk into town and some good restaurants and lovely beach. Kids club is good for all ages and the Eurocamp staff are very helpful at all times. Weather is varied and can be a little tricky as the climate is a little like that of the UK south coast. Don't rely on weather apps on your phone as they're often wrong and the sun does shine.
