Campsite Le Rossignol ***

This could easily be the best camping in Antibes if it were not for the staff who are rude and totally unhelpful. Our stay was totally spoiled by their attitude which is a great pity.

Very basic campsite for top price. No shop or bread or food when we visited. Decent size pitches some with shade. 2.5km walk to station and Antibes. Very congested area with insane drivers and lots of pollution. Couldn\'t wait to get away.

We visited this site for a week and again as other reviews the welcome was not brilliant however we knew what to expect. The site is ideally positioned to visit the likes of Monaco, Nice and Cannes. The train service from Antibes to all of those places is excellent and the trains run every 30 mins, with the train station being some 10-15 mins away from the site by cycle. The town of Antibes is very nice down by the port and in the old town with plenty of bars and places to eat. A good location to visit the area and do not be put off by the owners. Pitches were of a decent size.

We have been visiting this site for the past eleven years and can\'t wait to return. The family owners are always pleased to welcome us back with hugs, kisses and beaming smiles. We use the site as our home in France, parking up and staying for the summer, using public transport to get around.

WE HAVE CHOSEN to review the site not the owners. Overall the site is very good.Nicely laid out with hedging and trees round pitches for privacy.Toilets and showers old but very clean.Lovely pool which we had to ourselves and imagine would be packed in high season. We are active so 20 mins.x walk to station for train to NICE etc.20 mins cycle out of the site left then straight on gets you to the port and old town which is a delight with this hidden town beach of Antibes, sandy with great swimming in the bay.Lovely surroundings and a minute walk through the arch to restaurants and ice cream parlourspca. DEFINITELY the best find a nd based for visiting area.

The first bad thing I have to mention is the grumpy unsociable unwelcoming ignorant t**t that owns this site on check in didn't speak just pointed us to the crap pitch on leaving just said "name"? I paid, no thank you no nothing the worst campsite owner in 8 years (approx 200 plus campsites) of motorhomeing across Europe
Pitches and site were terrible gravel and weeds the site was in need of major makeover
Right here is the only positive - swimming pool was good
Never checked surroundings because left next day pity really sure it could have been ok
Facilities i.e. Showers etc were ok
There are lots of good sites why go here?

A very well appointed campsite, Although proprietor speaks French and not English we did not experience any problems using very basic French to communicate that we wished to extend our stay . in a good location with easy access to Biot and Antibes a station close by if you wish to travel further afield. Bring your bikes and explore the cap d'antibes .
Basically a value for money campsite in a good location .

Rude, unfriendly and unhelpful owners... thankfully we arrived when the son was on duty and he let us find a suitable spot for our 9m motorhome. Only ever got a grunt or shrug from the father and zero interaction from the mother. But we wanted a well situated site not to make lifelong friends and so stayed 5 nights. Showers clean and plenty hot water, laundry fine, get jetons from the Glums at reception. The dryer on high heat for 30 mins left T shirts still quite damp. Where we were parked at bottom of straight entrance hill meant we had no chance to empty grey water as the water dumps were in an area that we couldn't access. There was a water tap nearby to refill. We were given no information or site plan, nor an access code for the barrier. Thankfully we could manoeuvre our scooter round it. From previous reviews it seems that if you've been going there for years or stay a couple of months that you may get some communication from the family owners, but newbies are ignored!! It's not good enough to say that they only speak French. I have a little French but still only got a shrug or grimace. Oh, and Wifi is 25€ for a week or 13€ for 10 hours, not for us thank you! We'd use it again for its location but be aware that a customer service concept is non existant

We have just returned from our annual trip to Le Rossignol - staying for two and a half months. Once again we were welcomed like old friends and again met up with several people who, like ourselves, return year after year to this lovely place. 'Our' pitch was ready when we arrived and in no time we were happily settled in. We renewed our bus passes in town (admiring the new Pole d'Echange) and began once again to explore the surrounding area. There is always something we seem to have missed on previous visits and this year was no exception. We also bought a ZOU card from the railway station and this entitled us to half price train travel - a huge saving, allowing us to go even further afield. The whole experience is always a pleasure and it is a delight to come back every year to this friendly, welcoming campsite with the lovely family owners. Thank you - à l'annee prochaine.
