Camping Les Philippons

👍 A lovely campsite. Good reception. Everything is well maintained. There is a swimming pool. The toilet buildings are tidy. Sometimes, you had to walk a bit further for water. Electricity was indeed close by. Standplaats/Huuraccommodatie: It was very nice to choose your own spot for your camper/caravan/tent. You have a choice, so you can only blame yourself if you realize later that you're not well positioned or something like that. 👎 However, the timer for the lighting in the toilet buildings goes out quite early. If you take a longer shower or use the restroom, the light suddenly turns off. And there's only a sensor by the entrance. So, you have to walk around naked under the sensor.... to turn it back on. Standplaats/Huuraccommodatie: It is a terraced campsite, so you do find yourself walking up and down quite a bit. But we knew that in advance, and the campsite can't do anything about it.

👍 The surroundings are beautiful. Standplaats/Huuraccommodatie: De omgeving 👎 We definitely do not recommend this campsite! You are received in a grumpy manner, the lady in the restaurant cannot even muster a smile, and every question you ask is one too many. Ice cream is only available from 6 PM, so there's no nice ice cream while swimming. Bread rolls can only be ordered from 6:30 PM and picked up from 9 AM (a tricky timeframe with young kids). The pool is fine and has a lifeguard, which is safe in itself. However, you are only allowed to swim quietly in this pool, which is not really inviting for children. Perhaps for someone without children, it would be a nice campsite, but with children, it is definitely not recommended. Standplaats/Huuraccommodatie: Toilets without toilet seats and quickly dirty. Our spot was far from the football field and playground. Since there is a thoroughfare through the campsite, the children could not go to the playground by themselves.

Pros

We had a wonderful time here with our family, 6 people. The camper pitches are spacious and most offer privacy. You are definitely not side by side. There is a nice pool, not large but perfect for relaxing. The children had a great time. The sanitary facilities are a bit outdated but work just fine. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend trying the restaurant at the campsite as well. Delicious and definitely not expensive! The campsite is conveniently located for visits to all the famous places along the Côte d'Azur. In short, a wonderful place!

Pros

Great atmosphere, pleasant people, lots of peace Pitch/rental accommodation: Motorhome

👍 Super nice campsite, centrally located with very friendly staff! Free shower: I've not experienced that much. Super clean and beautiful pool. Standplaats/Huuraccommodatie: See above. 👎 The ground of the pitch was quite hard, which made it difficult to get some pegs in. But other than that, nothing to complain about. Standplaats/Huuraccommodatie: See above.

👍 It was our first camping holiday. We were looking for a quiet yet centrally located spot on the Côte d'Azur. This campsite was perfect for our needs! We were able to enjoy city visits as well as beach days. What I particularly liked was the relaxed atmosphere throughout the campsite. The entire staff was very friendly and helpful, and despite language barriers, communication worked very well. We will keep this campsite in mind for future travels and will definitely recommend it. Thank you very much for the lovely time! undefinedPitch/Rental Accommodation: The pitches are arranged in terraces. There were many trees, so we had a shaded spot at any time of the day. The ground is flat, but it is difficult to get pegs into the soil. If you plan to set up a tent/awning/...

👍 A lovely site, set among old olive trees. Pitches are terraced and level, toilets are spotless. The guys at reception were always helpful. The swimming pool is well looked after. The food in the restaurant is good, though wine is either very expensive or poor quality Pitch/rental accommodation: Our pitch was large and level, partly shaded by olive trees which cast a lovely dappled shade 👎 It's a shame that there is no shop, and no toilet paper.

👍 A beautiful spaciously laid-out campsite. Pitch/ Rental accommodation: A neat spot!
