Location
: France, Les Landes near the Atlantic
Ocean, Parentis en Born - Gastes (2km).
Description:
The camping is located in a pine-forest near the lake. The camping is completely flat, the roads are made of asphalt. The camping-places dispose off lots of shade. The lakeside beach is accessible for the usual 4WD chair, but even with the help of someone it is difficult to get trough the loose sand, giving lots of problems later ( crispy bearings).
Time of visit
: July 1993.
Reception
: accessible for wheelchair users.
Shop
: A 18 cm high step blocked the way for me in 1993.
Telephones: same problem as the shop.
Restaurant and bar
: 100% access.
Pool
: was changed in 1994, so
I don't know about the actual access.
Bathroom
: There are several special bathrooms ( no private key ) for disabled people. There is no toilet here. The shower from the bathroom
I used was located in a corner, had a foldaway seat and the necessary grips, but once you were on the seat, you
realized that the water taps were located behind your back (I suppose the architect was working in a circus before, so be ready to start the yoga lessons).
Toilet
:
There are several accessible wheelchair toilets located in different blocks all over the camping. The one
I used, had a sink. The toilet was 40 cm high, standing with its right side against the wall. There was a foldaway grip on the left side, but on the right side there only was a vertical grip, no horizontal one. Talking with someone from the reception did not change the problem. No alarm
in toilet or bathroom. |
