We like Just about everything, but in particular is the superb pool area which is just perfect. The site is so peaceful and yet lively with families at the same time - the perfect balance. The facilities are everything you need. The staff are friendly and helpful.
Some outdoor wooden games like those to be found at he Bastideum at Monpazier would be a wonderful addition for children and adults alike! When pool aerobics was cancelled the second time it was not announced and was still showing as taking place on the notice board.
Accommodation review
Wonderful 'mobil-home Agreable Premium' was indeed both premium and agreeable. New, clean, comfortable and well equipped with convenient parking nearby.
Duvets provided were too thick. Some shade from the sun is needed in the late afternoon. A TV would have been nice. Some cushions for the hard chairs would also have been welcome.

We were very impressed with Domaine Laborde. The site, facilities, and grounds are beautifully maintained, spotless, and clearly cared for with pride. The staff and owners do an excellent job creating a welcoming atmosphere. We loved the attractive landscaping and daily visits from the friendly chickens. The bar and restaurant were outstanding, far above the standard of most naturist sites we’ve visited. Our five-day stay was wonderful, and we were pleasantly surprised by the very reasonable bill at checkout.
No complaints at all, keep doing what you are doing, it's fabulous!

Well cared for, tastefully landscaped grounds with clean toilets and showers. Swimming pools were so clean and pleasant to swim in. Unlike anywhere else I have been! Excellent restaurant and bar. We were new to naturism but found it easy to fit in. Surrounded by beautiful woodland for walking, running and cycling.
Better lighting during daytime in the toilets and indoor swimming pool.

Not too far to toilets and showers. Felt spacious.

Beautiful landscape and ambience. We have stayed here for the last fourteen years and love it. Peak season is best, although busy as it has the best atmosphere, although off-peak is quieter and mailnly for senior couples. Reception is excellent and Francois is very helpful and friendly. Nothing is too much trouble.
None come to mind.
Accommodation review
Equipped with everything that you need.
Chalet Simples have become dated and need refurbishment. The coffee machines aren't really required and take up too much space. Kettle doesn't reach the power socket.

reception helpful/pitch very good
facilities on site could be better if there were more drinking water points and chemical toilet emptying places. Easier to reserve a table in the restaurant if you could do this any day in the reception office. Waste bins could be closer it was along walk every day with the rubbish.

This is a truly beautiful site with a lovely landscape and grounds. The pitches are large, the toilets are spotlessly clean and the pool area is brilliant. The restaurant is good value and the food of superb quality. Recently they have added a snack bar which also has a great selection of things available all day. The staff are very friendly and efficient.

Wonderful landscaped site with lots of shade, well appointed chalet and great swimming pools.
Possible fitting of air conditioning units in the chalet as the world heats up and the air temperature increases.
Accommodation review
Well appointed chalet for the kitchen dining areas.
The 2 bedrooms are very small and difficult to get around with the beds in place. Also lack of shelf / wardrobe space.

Laborde is a beautiful place. Lots of space, wonderful trees and peaceful surroundings. The staff are always lovely and were particularly helpful when I was unwell and had to make a visit to a doctor (I am English).

The team and how friendly and accommodating they are. The standards of cleanliness and operations is exceptional. The grounds are extremely well maintained . Excellent draught beers, very good food offering at a realistic price
Get the sun turned down a degree or 2 😁
Accommodation review
Clean, spacious, plenty of cutlery crockery etc, excellent views.
Some kind of roll down blind or sail on the front of the decking as the early evening sun is unforgiving and you have to retreat to the shade beside the accommodation. A gas hob where all 4 thermocouples work all the time

The extremely high standards are noticeable from entering the gates. Everywhere feels so spacious. The staff are not just extremely efficient but very happy too, all in good humour - especially Laetitia! Beautifullycut lawns, large pitches - lots of shaded ones if needed. Three very well maintained toilet blocks. Two large swimming pools - one being indoors - both with plenty of good sun loungers and shade. Plus two lakes for swimming in. Small grocery shop with fresh bread and pastries everyday. Restaurant serving very good food, and leaving the best until last, the best burgers in France!!
There are no washing machines, clothes for washing are taken and washed at reception

The pitch was very spacious
Maybe the cockerel but certainly not the chickens

Good, spacious accommodation, friendly staff and good facilities.
Insect netting on allwindows please. I was severely bitten! The restaurant is good but two main problems. Firstly, the menu needs changing more frequently. Secondly, please train staff to tell the customer what is unavailable before they choose it. It's a simple practice that avoids crushing disappointment.
Accommodation review
Space. Comfy beds.
Lack of window netting.

I needed to stay near Villereal, for domestic reasons, and Domaine Laborde provided an ideal location and environment in which to do so. It was good to get away each day to somewhere where I could really relax in peace and quiet, and with excellent facilities.
Accommodation review
Pleasant and spacious grassy pitch, close by the facilities and with easy access to electricity.
Having to request disconnection from the electricity in advance was only a minor inconvenience.

We had a very enjoyable break at Domaine Laborde. This year we visited in May and have been many times before. The owners and staff are always polite, friendly and very helpful. The on-site bar/restaurant served up delicious meals. There is a large swimming pool surrounded by lots of sunbeds. In the surrounding countryside there are many beautiful chateau and bastide towns to visit. What is there not to like?
Accommodation review
The chalet was well equipped with a large bathroom. We spent most of the time on the covered terrace.

We received a very friendly reception on arrival. The environment was mostly clean and tidy. There were plenty of sunbeds and parasols around the pool. Really pleasant by the pool and with the bar close by.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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

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.

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

Nice to have the options of a hard standing
Tricky to get onto the hard standings as they are very narrow.

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!

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

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.
