Sandaya - English/ French mix

We're looking at a couple of Sandaya campsites for a few nights away this summer and I wondered if anyone could advise how popular they are with British holidaymakers? I'm not after a Little Britain bubble by any means, but I have two outgoing DSs who will be keen to make holiday friends, and from past experience this is tricky when pretty much everyone else on the campsite speaks a different language. Just after reassurance that there will likely be enough English-speaking kids for them to run around with.

We went to the Sandaya in Belgium last year, it was about 75% Dutch, the rest mainly French, luckily DD managed to find the only bilingual child in the whole place 😂

Anyway, following as we really like the Sandaya sites and may go again this year but would like a few more potential playmates for her.

We went to the Sandaya near Sarlat a few years ago and there was a good mix, but then Eurocamp went there at the time and I think they've stopped.

Language isn't usually a barrier for kids. They play quite happily whilst speaking different languages.

Thanks for feedback. @CalloohCallayFrabjousDay I agree for younger children that is often the case, but my eldest is a preteen and will want to be able to chat to people as well as splash in the pool with them.

When we were at one of the sites , the mix was roughly half french and a third Brits and the rest Dutch.
