Camping Le Bois Fleuri, Route de Brou,
Illiers-Combray, Tel 0237240304
To Find Site:- Leave the A11 at junction 4 and take D955 to Brou
and then D921 towards Illiers-Combray . On approach to Illiers-Combray
watch out for Municipal Swimming Pool on the right, the campsite is just
a little further on, also on the right. Don’t pull into first entrance
to site but go about 50 mts further on and turn right, this will avoid a
sharp U-turn in the site. There is also a parking area if reception
happens to be closed when you arrive.
Le Bois Fleuri is a kilometre or so outside the town of
Illiers-Combray. There are around 80 touring pitches plus some rental
accommodation. The pitches are on grass and divided by hedges which
gives a good degree of privacy. They are of a good size although the
access roads are quite tight in places which can make getting on some
pitches difficult. Some levelling will be required on some pitches. The
site escort you to your pitch so best to check you are happy before they
leave you! Some pitches have access to electrics and water but no
drainage. Electric points are rated at 10amps but are the old fashion 2
pin Continental connectors. There is one Toilet block which is of a good
standard, even if a little old fashioned, with seated toilets but no
paper provided. One disappointing aspect of the toilet block was the
lack of rinsing water tap at the chemical toilet disposal point. Whilst
there is no dedicated motorhome service point we were shown a drain
where grey water could be emptied, if you have a pitch with a water tap
obviously you can use that for filling fresh water taps. Bread can be
ordered from reception and there is also a small snack bar with an
outside terrace. The site also has a small sauna/spa. WiFi is available
in that area, free if you use the bar but otherwise €2 which does not
seem time or use limited. For children there is a large play area to suit
all ages with quite a lot of different equipment.
We used this site as a stopover going north. It would make quite
a nice site for a longer stay to explore the area. There is a cycle path
into Illiers-Combray. There are several supermarkets within easy reach
of the campsite with your own transport.
