Very noisy site. Mobile home in direct line with speakers from la sirene. Rehearsals went on for hours by day, and the show, till late at night. Then, neighbouring campsite's entertainment boomed out more noise. We have had several holidays in other parts of France without this problem. Kelair staff were really helpful and moved us after first week. We... More

Have been going to this park for over 10 years and have never had a bad holiday here. My children have also always enjoyed the holidays taken here and indeed still go as adults now. We have stayed on the park with several different holiday companies most recently with Lifestyle Holidays and cannot praise the current two reps(Bev Copeman and... More

So we have a four year old son and a one year old little girl. A couple of years ago we went to a place named Club Farret in Vias Plage, which was another of the popular French campsites. That one was excellent in that it was right next to the sea, had an outstanding recently constructed pool complex and... More

We stayed at this location as a base to explore the Catalan region of France and Spain. The mobile itself was new and clean. We stayed with Kel Air. The site itself was really nice with mature trees and shrubs and although most of the entertainment is accross the street in La Sirene there is a pool and bar on... More

We stayed in a 2 bed mobile home, newly aquired by Lifestyleholidays.co.uk. Our home had AC and decking newly fitted. L'Hippocampe is a small site with a pool(+kids pool/slide), a bar and large play/sports area for both adults and kids. The playground and pool kept our four year old giirl occupied all day. Older children, 6+, have ample sports to... More

This is simply the best entertainment you will see anywhere outside of the west end. And its better than most you will see there. If you are offended by noise from what is the best shows in France bar none then please don't go. You will only be disapointed and write innacurate reviews of a great site. (see above) This... More

We stayed very close to the... More

Just returned so thought give a fact-based review to help others (stuff I wanted to know). We were 3 families - boys and girls of 7, 10 and 13. Booked with Siblu as couldn't book direct with campsite as full. Most owners' caravans looked OK so option to book direct. Caravans at l'hippocampe are extremely close to each other, closest... More
