Les Cottages du Lac

Second time at Les Cottages du Lac. The cottages are great and well equipped, so quiet and nice private garden to have outdoor dining, you can rent a bbq hot plate. The lake beach is a few mins walk with local playground and lots of water sports but the lake was polluted this week so we couldn’t swim in it. Nearest swimming lake nearby is 25mins at Sanguenet - beautiful! The food at the restaurant is very good but we found this year they are not as flexible as they used to be at dinner time. Friday and Saturday nights were fully booked with no take away service. It would have been nice to have been offered to book dinner when we arrived but the food at Pipiou restaurant was good also,5min walk and we recommend Hotel Lakeside for dinner also (10min walk). However when we did eat there it was delicious with great service. There is a two hour window for lunch 12-2 but if you miss that they have a good panini and crepe menu to offer. Also the Reception team are v helpful. Make sure you book any taxis in advance. You can easily rent bikes down by the lake by the hour/day/week. A great family resort.

As other reviews will tell you, the resort is generally nice and quiet and never feels particularly busy, even in mid August. We liked the pool and the pool side cafe has a lovely atmosphere. The walk to the lake was lovely. The children loved playing in the lake and the little play ground. We stayed in an apartment which was ok. It was very basic and the kitchen area small which made it hard to cook. Had we known this we would have definitely stayed in one of the cottages rather than the apartment. Overall, a nice resort which is quieter and more spacious than the neighboring campsites.

The apartments and whole complex were very clean and tidy. Very pleased with our accommodation. Also good that sheets and towels included, which they aren't always at similar type French properties we've stayed at. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful. The two swimming pools were lovely, and it's also right on the lake beach, and not far to drive to the ocean beach. Really enjoyed our stay here.
