Ninian Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Hi, We want to visit the above this year and looking for recommendations for a campsite with easy access and transport connections into the town. Even a secure Aire may be suitable. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Kirby Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Good little site at Gradignan, about 5 miles south west of the centre, on a frequent bus route. On the D1010. Camping Beau Soleil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solwaybuggier Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 I know there's a site at Les Lacs - pretty close to the city. But no idea what it's like, we've never stopped there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbo Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 Solwaybuggier - 2016-02-27 7:47 AM I know there's a site at Les Lacs - pretty close to the city. But no idea what it's like, we've never stopped there. Les Lacs is an Acsi site, very popular as a one night stop-over for those travelling south (or north). It has a bus stop outside to the City with a fairly regular service. Shop is closed in low season but restaurant on site (possibly only weekends in low season). Lots of holiday chalets on site but touring area quite large. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Lac is the camping village du Lac as mentioned above. Quite a pleasant site although tends to get busy at weekends with the chalet brigade.

John Edward Posted February 27, 2016 Share Posted February 27, 2016 You might want to avoid Bordeaux between 11th June and 2nd July as the Stade de Bordeaux are hosting some of the Euro 2016 football matches. We will be going there as we have tickets for one of the matches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took us 1 hr last time to do a 10 min journey Yes it is the Village du Lac in ACSI Book PJay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bojitoes Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Hi We have stayed at "Les Lacs" on several occasions on our way down south. There is a bus stop outside the site, indeed the site reception have to call the bus company to tell the bus to stop and how many passengers there are. The bus then goes round the houses a bit before depositing you at an interchange where you catch a tram which then takes you into the centre of Bordeaux, wherre you can change onto any of the other tram lines. It's a bit confusing but quite fun. I seem to recall that the tickets cost 1.50E for an hour's travelling. There is free wifi on the site. We found Bordeaux to be very expensive when we last visited a couple of years ago, and the cathedral was closed for renovation, so if that's of interest suggest you check beforehand. Enjoy your trip Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
