Le Martinet campsite on the banks of the Loire at Briare Le Canal offers you the chance to get up close and personal with nature. On the banks of the Loire, discover the sixty species of dragonfly found in the Loiret, follow in the footsteps of the discreet beaver, rediscover your child's eyes as you observe the sublime day peacocks, the colourful bee-eaters, the terns, the kingfishers and of course the swifts, these prodigious birds which have given their name to our campsite and which have ... the surprising characteristic of never landing on the ground. They eat, drink, sleep, breed and collect nesting material without ever stopping to fly, except when it's time to lay their eggs.
Just two kilometres from the famous Pont-Canal de Briare, you'll learn about the fascinating local history of Henri IV, Jean-Félix Bapterosses and Gustave Eiffel.
You'll also enjoy all the amenities of the town of Briare le Canal, just ten minutes away on foot, or five minutes by bike.

Near to the town, quiet, nice big pitches. Lots of sun.
Shower/toilet block needs refurbishing. All areas need a good clean from cobwebs. Washing up sinks need a good bleach. No information given on arrival.

Large pitch
All hedges needed a good prune

Platz in der Nebensaison angenehm wegen der Parzellengrösse und wenig Gäste. Briare ist hübsch.
Das Empfangspersonal war gestresst und panisch. Fast nicht ansprechbar!
Accommodation review
Nicht sehr gepflegte Sanitäranlagen und die Reinigung war nicht gut! Schade ...
Es scheint, dass das Camping generell sehr lieblos gemanagt wird!

Because of the time of year we found this site fairly quiet for its size. Peaceful was top of the ticks .
Although the toilets and showers were very functional but dated . I thought that they could have been cleaner

Park where you like . Spacious pitches
Having to walk to the shower block as the only source to fetch water for your unit. Some distance.

Lovely and clean site with excellent facilities. Very impressed with the company and the communication throughout the booking process. I will definitely holiday with Seasonova gain.
Can't think of any improvements that were needed.

Jean Charles was lovely and helpful.
Pool was way too small for the campsite. Pool was dirty. Pool had too much chlorine in it and hurt my kids eyes before they even dunked. Toilets often didn't have toilet paper. Pressure on the shower was poor. We paid for 3 nights and left after 1.

Pitch was a good size.
The electric point didn't work and had to get help.

Les prix ont fortement augmentés depuis l'an dernier. Plus de wifi disponible. Accueil froid à améliorer nettement. Aucune facture n'est délivrée Les haies ne sont pas taillées. Le pédiluve de la piscine est très sale. Mais surtout, les sanitaires ne sont pas nettoyés tous les jours. Seuls points positifs le calme et la situation du camping. Nous y passions régulièrement mais envisageons sérieusement un autre camping dans la région bien mieux entretenu.
L'hygiène surtout, l'accueil et l'entretien général.
Accommodation review
Emplacement spacieux et encore plus si les haies sont taillées.

The pitches were a large size. Hedges gave privacy and mature trees gave shade. Swimming pool a great feature. Electric points at no distance from the emplacement itself Town is only a short walk away, so an ideal location. The region is charming and Briare is a good base.
The sanitation block is really tired and desperately needs updating. I won't be coming again until this is improved. No toilet seats. Very dated. No privacy from men's urinals. Thought this was really poor for a modern campsite and would expect better. Given there is a pool and children's play area, time to invest in a small bar/guingette and make something of the site itself.
Accommodation review
Size and shadiness. Access to elec.
Pitches not clearly demarcation and grass so poorly cut that it was impossible to see a road from a pitch.

95% of the things that make bikepackets happy - shaded camp site. access to a common room and a refrigerator, food and drink available on site and WIFI. And of course good and clean shower and washing facilities and friendly staff.
Nothing at all. Only suggestion is consideration for a covered area with tables to allow cooking, eating and gathering should it be economically feasible.

The location is great. Very peaceful and a nice walk or cycle along the river into town for provisions or a pression.
The sanitaires are a little dated but they were perfectly clean so not an issue for us.

A good choice of large pitches. We were given the option to just have a look and choose wherever we liked , which was great.
