Trawling for a site near Biarritz, I found this one. I've stayed on the aire at St Jean de Luz, but now we are tugging this looks comfy. However, the given location is causing me some concern... :eek:

We normally stay here on our way to Spain if any good to you.

Camping Larrouleta

Another vote for Larrouleta! Not cheap, but they do accepts ACSI, and the welcome and facilities are damn near immaculate. And it is possible to walk to the Leclerc Hypermarket, for essential supplies, in about 15 minutes each way at a gentle pace.

Larrouletta will always have a special place in our affections; it's where we got locked out of our [new to us] touring caravan in a torrential rainstorm in the dark on a very wet and windy last Saturday evening in November 2019 ...

Me: 'Need to get some tools from Tig to get into the Van' ...
Elaine: 'You locked Tig's keys inside the Van ...' :unsure:

And, having done it twice, it's a days drive from Bonterra Park (with a wobbly box on tow) so, by default, Benny should be done in a day.

It is a great site. If you can get a pitch at the far end near the sea take it unless you are very long. There is a lovely seaside bar/ restaurant by the site which also has a good restaurant - but the site one shuts earlier than the beach one.
Further along the beach towards St Jean De Luz there is another beachside restaurant near another ACSI site we used to use but stopped after problems accessing site in wet weather.

When Erromardie is shut we too use Larouleta which has a covered heated small pool. We used it one December!

Just arrived at Bonterra Park and it seems very busy. Haven’t seen this many Brit vans in a while.

So far, I have spotted two Morellos parked by us. Love the look of these vans. Will try and get an invite for a look around🧐

It will be interesting to see if the site is as good as you say.

Only paid 20 Euros with ACSI card.

Off to bar tonight for a a few beers and a catch up.
