Camping le Futuriste is a French
campsite open all year and is in a very convenient location for visiting the Futuroscope
theme park and you even have a lovely view of this from theme park from the site itself.
When you arrive you are provided a leaflet in different languages, which details the
regulations for the campsite and you are given a code that you have to input at the
entrance in order to raise the barrier to access or leave the campsite. And we would
say that it is an idea to actually read this leaflet, as it gives opening times of the
facilities along with information like where the rubbish bins are located, which we
initially found by walking around!
The pitches on this campsite in France are of a good size and there are pitches for
caravans, tents and motorhomes, but there are quite a few pitches that do not have
electric hook-ups, so it would be an idea to check availability because it is a popular
campsite due to its location being close to Futuroscope. Also, the pitch we had was
the old style European plug, so make sure that you have an adapter.
The facilities with dedicated disabled access are exceedingly well maintained and heated
when needed, and we all found that the showers were very powerful with unlimited hot
water, however, all the sanitary facilities do close each evening at 10.30pm and do not
open again until 7am, which we actually found very difficult and too long in our opinion,
especially when you consider that the games room with billiards table, video games, etc is
actually open until past 11pm.

You will also find a really nice
outdoor swimming pool complex that is actually heated, has a water slide and a separate
childrens pool, but do take note that as with many campsites in France, shorts are not
allowed, only proper swimming trunks. Mind you, Camping le Futuriste is looking at
adding an indoor swimming pool, which will be great for those days when the weather is not
so good.
Other activities include a nice childrens playground, table tennis tables and a
multi-sports court for basketball, etc plus this is a French campsite with fishing
available for free on the small private lake, which is an ideal way to relax, but there is
also a bar and snack bar along with a restaurant that is open of an evening, so you do not
have to worry about cooking every day, and again everything was spotless and in pristine
condition, making this a great place for a family camping holiday.
