M google-fu is weak this morning, so help me find that place we stayed at in 2013 on the long drive back from Tuscany. It was somewhere along the A26. Helpful, I know.

It was one of those massive campsite complexes. It had a big water slide park and was on a lake with lots of water sports and a sandy beach. If this helps, they had a big floating trampoline just offshore on the lake and you bounced into the water. Pitches were perfect - tents or vans, quite private for a campsite as they were separate by trees. There were cafes and a couple of restaurants, an activity centre, bike paths. It was a few minutes from a nice sized village which had a fountain in the square. It was hot.

If not exactly there, what might be similar a 3-5 hour drive from Calais. Its me, two kids aged 13 and 11.

Been on Eurocamp and trawled google maps but nothing coming up. Any ideas?

Did you take any photos with your phone? They'll probably be geo-tagged (or have a sign with the name of the site somewhere)

Thanks all for suggestions. Dont keep credit card statements and online they only go back a year. Will call the bank to see. Been searching through all the pix but no geotags and not a single bit of reference material any of them. So will keep looking.

If anyone has enjoyed a similar type of place, be interested to know which one.

Not very helpful but I do not think its Foret d Orient. We were there last year. It is quite big and there are hedges, lake and a sandy beach with a couple of resturants but def no water slide or trampolines. It was packed out in July and pretty noisy late into the night

IT's BEHIND YOU!

I'll give you a clue by spinning you around telling you to go east.
