La Baume- Frejus Would I be mad?

To take a 3 and a 20 month old there?
We are also going with a 12 year old and can not find anywhere that seems to strike the balance between young and early teens....

My main worry is reading reviews that it might be boisterous with lots of older teenagers favouring the park and that the traffic volume is high as its such a large park....

But it ticks all the other boxes, any recoomendations/reviews/tips etc?
Thanks

Don't know about your specific site, but the Frejus area is fab.

Haven't been there but I think i was put off by the reviews. The area is great. Have you checked Tripdvisor.com?

Lots of good sites along that coast. We love it.

We have always done Eurocamp, but I am considering Canvas after seeing how nice their tents were last year ( in comparision to ec). Do you have any reccomendations for good campsites that are lively ish.... but safe enough fir young ones too?

We went to Frejus as kids and I can not wait to go back!! I agree lovely area...

hi, went last year with Siblu. was very large and quite noisy at night with people moving around. the pools are lovely and we had a great holiday. we didnt venture out much with 2 little ones at night but the area is beautiful and we had a great holiday. we would go back to this site again. it was very secure and friendly.

sunnyshine, would you say it was ok for young kids? and that the 12 year old would be ok there too?

I really fancy the site but the reviews give the impression that it is going to be overrun with teenagers cavorting everywhere 9 which I have no objection too) as long as its safe for my littlies.

We're going next Tuesday with 3 aged 9 7 and 3. Am slightly worried about noise at night but we're going to just try and go with the flow!

Those of you that have been, how easy is it to get to beaches near by?
We're not hiring a car so wondered whether there are buses handy

Teenagers can be kind to littlies you know!

HI, we just got back from a fortnight with pur 2 and 3 year olds. It was great!
When are you going? Although it was pretty busy when we were there, it was nothing like full, so I can imagine in peak season it will be rammed and noisy.
