Another Great Stay

Overall review:

The space, the pools, restaurant and bar. The dedication of Team Laborde. Domaine Laborde offers so much more.

Laborde offers more than most sites and perhaps the only improvements I would like to see is a bit of green energy to off set the environmental impact of all those staying.

Accommodation review:

Both the mobile home and the chalet were very clean and well equipped. Both comfortable.

Domaine Laborde - The Team that goes the Extra Mile

Overall review:

Laborde has plenty of space so you can find yours. The Team are just excellent and nothing is too much trouble. Two pools & sauna again mean you can find your space.

Over the three years we have stayed Francoise and Jacky have made many improvements and I am sure next year we will see a few more.

Accommodation review:

Very comfortable and well equipped.

Petit paradis tranquille et formidable

Overall review:

I thank you for welcoming me to visit your beautiful place for 4 days 17-21/7. Naturiste Danois. Merci de tout l’equipe. Mes favourites, Sarah dans le reception, Monsieur Teulie et Jacqueline, tous les serviteurs, et Black au bar. I enjoyed the nature, the restaurant, the bar, the friday barbeque was fantastic, also enjoyed the indoor swimming pool, the one outside was often too full.

An extra swimming pool. Outdoor pools full. Larger selection, more goods, in the grocery store epicerie.

Accommodation review:

The location, the view of forest and hills. The Agréable is well designed and built. Great terrace, nice outside with beach chairs and table with parasol .

For the future I recommend installing climatization/air condition that can both provide heat and cool down. (I know it is expensive). Maybe television.

Absolutely brilliant

Overall review:

This was our first venture into naturist camping so we only booked 2 nights as a trial. I was excited but my wife was particularly nervous. We were greeted by very friendly staff who later met us on our pitch to check we were settling in. Pitch was level and easily accessible in our MoHo. Bar great, Restaurant indoor and outdoor pools and staff were amazing. We soon felt at ease and stayed a few extra days, and we were soon strolling around enjoying naturism to the full in a relaxed and comfortable environment. Full marks to you all. We will be back for longer next time.

Nothing- it was perfect.

Accommodation review:

Level, close to all facilities, quiet.

The bugs around the trees, but this is nature and can’t be controlled by the site.

Garden of Eden

Overall review:

The perfect destination to unwind amongst beautiful nature and surroundings. Since Francois took over it improves every year and the team go out of their way to welcome us and help. Nothing is too much trouble to make for a most enjoyable stay. The new snack bar is a very welcome addition offering a wide choice, reasonable prices and a very nice environment in which to enjoy. There's a nice family atmosphere during peak season but it can become very quiet and full of senior citizens out of season. We didn't want to leave and we'll be back again next year.

More vegetarian options at the restaurant and snack bar would be appreciated.

Accommodation review:

Fully equipped accommodation, very clean and tidy.

The pillows are awful, so we brought our own, and the chalet could do with a fly screen. The communal shower block need rubber mats as the area becomes very slippery and dangerous. Some wasp control around the chalets is needed. We always bring our own plates as the ones provided are too small.

First time visitors

Overall review:

First time visitors, impressed with the quiet location and superb facilities.

Electric bike hire?

Accommodation review:

Shady, with sunny aspect on a level pitch, very close to amenities. Couldn’t have asked for more.

Nothing at all.

Very friendly visit

Overall review:

Reception, easy check in, spoke good English. I enjoyed Laborde more than the other major site in the area (Coudxxx). More multi-mixed guests from all countries, not mainly Holland.

Accommodation review:

Was allowed to walk around and select from a few possibilities.

Best camp site experience ever!

Overall review:

We really liked Domaine Laborde. The pool area is fantastic, although the demand for loungers must be extreme in the very busiest weeks. The bar and restaurant look very nice, but we did not use them however. The campers were all very respectful and very quiet. The site is very tidy and clean. The wash & toilet blocks are well maintained. The staff were friendly and helpful. The electricity could have been closer (we have a 15m cable) but the staff found an extension. All in all we had a very pleasant 3 nights and will definitely book again, but for longer next time!

Accommodation review:

Our pitch had a good balance of dappled shade and sunlight and was reasonably flat and level.

Electricity points should be within 10/15m of each pitch I think, but as long as an extension is sure to be available then that is not a problem. It is not reasonable to expect campers to have more than 15m of cable. We came with the usual large three-pin plug, but needed a domestic type plug, again the site had an adaptor. The hikes were not great due to the constant flies in the face and not seeing much other than trees and bushes, but that is not the camp-site's fault. It would be our preference to have the car by the pitch, but the car park was very close

A week of camping and cycling in the region

Overall review:

A nice and friendly camp site. Good cycling around the region with lots to visit and see. Very relaxing when back at the camp ground. Pool and water slide are the main focus areas, but there is plenty of other space and other things to do.

I'm nit-picking here, but the pool could be a touch warmer. It is nice to hop in on a hot day, but I find it too cool to stay in for a longer time.

Accommodation review:

Flexibility in picking a pitch that suited my requirements. Good size. Excellent shade.

Short Break

Overall review:

A quiet location at night

The external showers and toilets could have been a bit cleaner.

Accommodation review:

Nice clean chalet with all the mod cons

Main Bedroom a bit to small to walk around .

Truly beautiful site with great hosts and facilities

Overall review:

I have stayed here 5 times before and the place is beautiful site with great hosts and facilities. The landscape and secluded shaded spacious pitches are great. The site is spotless and year on year they make improvements. The food in the restaurant is excellent and good value and the recent addition of the snack bar has improved the options even further. The pool is excellent with sufficient loungers. Can’t recommend this naturist site more highly.

The decking area around the pool could be expanded. It’s sufficient but more space would help.

Accommodation review:

Excellent

We've been visiting Domain Laborde for many years. Always enjoy it and in recent years a few innovations have made it even better.

Accommodation review:

Great position near facilities. Shade from trees.

Unfortunately, the pitch was muddy when we arrived (no grass in centre). No big problem.

Lovely peaceful place, great slides

Overall review:

Well maintained, peaceful, friendly staff. Nice pool and great slides. Sanitary blocks were always clean.

Wi-Fi was a bit patchy. Would be nice if there was another sanitary block near to the camping car hard standings.

Accommodation review:

Nice to have the options of a hard standing

Tricky to get onto the hard standings as they are very narrow.

A lovely, quiet break

Overall review:

The whole site is convivial, friendly and welcoming.

Accommodation review:

Convenient for all the facilities.

A beautiful, tranquil naturist camping

Overall review:

The site is fabulous! Lots of space, beautiful trees and good facilities. the staff are very friendly and helpful. The surrounding area has some lovely little bastide towns where you can find interesting historic architecture, local markets and nice restaurants. Laborde is also a very eco-friendly place!

Accommodation review:

We stayed in a comfortable chalet, simply but adequately equipped, with a bathroom and lots of hot water!

Fantastic Place, Fantastic People

Overall review:

The people are fantastic, always bending over backwards to help and make your stay enjoyable . The indoor pool is great when the sun isn't quite where you want it.

Open the water slides mid June so they are available more for the 'big kids'.

Accommodation review:

The layout, the cleanliness, the equipment provided

When it's hot day the sun late in the day makes the veranda and that side of the building unbearably hot. A possible solution would be roll down screens to protect the area from direct sunlight at the edge of the roof area as several residents when we're stopped had to set up camp behind the chalets to protect from the sun

An enjoyable second stay

Overall review:

First time since 2019. We had a good time then but there were a few shortcomings. We returned after reading a review on the British Naturism forum. We enjoyable our stay. I liked walking around the site and into the woods. A pre-dinner drink in the bar was also nice. We appreciate the improvements to accommodation the owners have made. The installation of the snack bar was a great idea. We used it several times and were very happy. Best of all, there is now Wifi everywhere! The food in the restaurant was good. The owners work VERY hard and we noticed.

There used to be a market on Wednesday, but not on this stay which was a shame. It was still low season and so not a lot happened in the evenings. It's a tranquil domaine, but at the same time, we felt quite isolated down in the field. Not much socialising in the bar area either. People were friendly, but they were very chatty even when I spoke to them in Dutch or French. There wasn't a community feel. Maybe it is different if you camp.

Accommodation review:

We liked the Mobilehome Premium, the large decking was lovely and also the size of the covered terrace. Inside it was spacious and lots of storage space. The mosquito net on bedroom windows is a wonderful idea.

The beds were awful! The mattress was just a piece of foam with no support at all. That really needs to change as we did not sleep well during our stay. We brought our own pillows from previous experience, but that didn't help. I miss not having a coffee filter machine. The Senseo is fine, but it's not as popular in the UK as in the NL, so they will not know to bring pads with them. There was a freezer but no ice cube trays, so we could not make ice cubes for our drinks. The terrain of the field is such that it retains water. It was very wet around the house and not pleasant.

Wonderful place and people

Overall review:

The chalet was excellent, the bar nice and it was made whole with a team who worked everywhere and made everyone welcome

It would have been nice if the water slides were in operation, even if only for a short time, but I understand that the demand for them outside of July and August would be significantly lower.

Accommodation review:

Really nice, well laid out and clean.

Could do with some kind of shade to drop down over the front of the porch area as the sun shines directly on the front from mid afternoon till sunset and it made sitting out when it was sunny very difficult

First Class Site

Overall review:

The Laborde team are are friendly, helpful and make your stay enjoyable in a most beautiful campsite in a beautiful region of France.

Accommodation review:

Large pitches with both choice of shade or sun.

Beautiful

Overall review:

Beautifully kept environment. Francois makes new improvements every year we come, which is about ten years now. Excellent to have Wi-Fi throughout the site . Restaurant could use some vegetarian options and the nightly entertainment could be improved too bt, apart from that, it's as near Paradise as you'll find.

Accommodation review:

Spacious , clean and well equipped.

Some larger plates. Get rid of the coffee machine, which no one uses. Neighbours can get very noisy during the evening.

Spot on!

Overall review:

So good, we came back!

The flies in the woods, and the loose pebbles at the entrance to the drive…as a new motor biker the loss of traction was disconcerting! These small issues do not take anything away from how good a stay we had.

Too hot, too many midges this year

The Perfect Getaway

Overall review:

Fabulous site in the middle of nowhere.

Swimming pool at times was manic with many “energetic” children playing in the water. But that was understandable as it was during school holiday time. I could foresee a more tranquil situation during June and September.

Accommodation review:

Lovely grounds, beautifully kept and a lovely flat pitch for our large double axle caravan.

Beautiful place, just needs more customer focus

Overall review:

Excellent mobile home and location, beautifully kept grounds and friendly staff. Overall, a lovely place to spend a week.

It's sometime frustrating being a customer here. Reception and the shop are often shut. The bar is often empty or it's unclear how you get served when it's busy (a big long queue of people paying for food but no-one serving drinks) The restaurant food was great but service was poor. After waiting 10/15 mins for a menu, we got shouted at by the older waiter for asking for some - not entirely sure why! (The younger guy was nice and friendly though...) You really need someone to manage the bar and restaurant, it's a bit all over the place. We came to relax but ended up getting a bit stressed!

Accommodation review:

Really nice clean, new feeling mobile home with a great view and lovely outside area.

No, it was great.

A wonderful week - we will return!

Overall review:

Our first visit to Domaine Laborde and we enjoyed our stay very much. The staff team are friendly, welcoming and helpful. We enjoyed the pools, the slides, the bar & restaurant. The campsite is spacious, so visitors are not on top of one another. All the main facilities are handily all together in one area. The restaurant served good food at a very reasonable price. Enjoyed trips out to the wonderful market at Issegeac and visited some chateaus /castles in this beautiful region. The new internet connection was welcome. Met some lovely people and enjoyed a wonderful week clothes free.

Everything was good, though you need to update your website regarding the lakes which are not in use but the website talks about boating, zip wires etc.

Accommodation review:

A good size for a couple or family with younger children. Good kitchen for preparation of simple meals, everything provided even a kettle. Our chalet faced the open field and was peaceful and quiet in the evenings. You could position the sunloungers to get the most of the sun throughout the day.

There were quite few waspy type insects, which flew in and out the open door, some kind of fly ribbon curtain woud be a useful additon. Something like this : https://www.etsy.com/uk/market/fly_curtain

Domaine Laborde: a 10

Overall review:

The camping itself is a beauty. The pitch was shaded almost allí day long, and although It was quite crowded, you never felt it was so.

We had to either climb or walk quite a bit to access the baths, swimming pool or the general services.

Accommodation review:

Well shaded,, ample, quite flat.

Far away from most services
