We spent 2 weeks last year at this site, and used as a basis for touring the south of France. We totally enjoyed the location and facilities on the site - so much so, we're going back for 10 days this year.
The only gripe about the entire site is the shop - not having any French language, I got ripped off a couple of times (only about 1 euro), so nothing to really kick up a fuss - I should try harder to understand French.
I would recommend this site.

Very surprised to see a strong negative comment about this delightfully European campsite from on of the others. If you are after Blackpool, chips and bingo then this is not for you....
This is a quaint campsite that French families treat as a second home. The vans are well spaced out in their own "Gardens" rather than in military rows.
The views are spectacular and the staff very friendly.
The Pools are not huge but so what? You are 5 minutes away from the beach.... However a new pool for the children is under construction and due to be finished very soon.
The vans area mix of older and newer but does anyone expect total luxury camping?
Go to this lovely site. Listen to all the languages and appreciate its French ness.

We are experienced campers and have enjoyed holidaying with Eurocamp 8 times. This year I left booking late and eventually booked a holiday with a Blackpool based holiday company called Fleur Holidays.
We visited their offices prior to booking and met their MD, we explained our requirements in great detail as I am registered Disabled with a severe back problem,he assured us that Park St James would be suitable.
What a pack of lies Park St James is totally unsuitable for anybody with any kind of disability, our caravan was 1km up a steep hill with about 35 sharp bends on a partially tarmaced road, the caravan itself was up an unlit track and unless you wanted to watch your children fall off the edge of a hill into a dense patch of overgrown weeds not at all child friendly.
The very small swimming pool on site is in August totally overcrowded and the campsite cafe bar serves a selection of the most disgusting frozen pizzas I have encountered. The site is full of old worn out caravans set about in a most haphazard pattern imaginable.
The site appears to cater in the main for French owners and no entertainment program is available. The campsite is decrepit, the facilities are poor it is located about 5 miles from St Tropez geographically but about a million miles away in style. My advice is DO NOT GO TO THIS CAMPSITE WITH FLEUR HOLIDAYS .

Excellent location to explore the Riviera including Monaco and St Tropez which were both less than 1 hour's drive from the site.
Campsite facilities were great and very clean. The reception provided lots of info on the local area. Set in beautiful countryside. Pitches were a good size too. Can't comment on night time entertainment as we had a young baby with us.
Would highly recommend this site.

This site itself is great, from the swimming pools, excellant sports facilities, friendly staff and lovely restaurant we could not fault it. The big problem was the accomodation and the lack of customer service from IN2CAMPING/FLEUR HOLIDAYS.From first booking the 3 week holiday the MD couldnt bend over backwards enough for us from promising a special welcome pack on arrival to guaranting that our mobile home would have air con etc, which is a must in st tropez!! Yet on arrival we were met with none of these and it only got worse!The air con unit that was promised to us turned out to be a dirty, filthy small portable fan.The van itself hadn,t been cleaned beforehand and also the furniture outside was covered in twigs off the surrounding trees etc.But, that was the least of our problems- the first night in the main bedroom we could hear constant buzzing coming from one of the air vents and the next morning there were two v-large wood wasps flying around the room and my wife was covered in stings/bites all over her legs. we contacted the rep straight away via mobile phone and she came to have a look, we told her that there was something up in the air vent and that we thought it was a wasp nest.She said that she would contact someone to come out and have a look at it, we didnt hear from her again for FOUR days!! In the meantime we were having to pull the matresses into the main living area to sleep at night as we were all frightened to death to step foot into the bedroom!! we rung the rep everyday to come and sort it out but they were too busy with another job that they had elsewhere!!
We tried not to let it ruin our holiday but it was becoming unbearable especially for my wife who was just covered in stings.
Eventually we got in touch with the rep and as the caravan next door was vacant we asked if we could be moved. everything great NOT,the electrical light switches in the bedroom which was next to the bathroom fell off in my hand leaving live wires buzzing underneath
and the lights going on and off constantly.The caravan was a health and safety risk right through from out of date electrical inspections to kitchen tables nearly collapsing on our 14 year old son!!
We yet again shown the rep all the faults and she agreed with us that the vans were in need of work doing on them!!
We reported these faults to the md through a friend of his whilst still on holiday, to which he responded by emailing the rep straight away telling them all our complaints which left us in a very uncomfortable situation with them!
On our arrival back in the UK we spoke with him and emailed him but with no support from him at all. He said he would have to get the reps side of things but never actually told us the outcome from her!!
This was not a cheap holiday!! so we would of expected a little bit more customer service whilst in france and when we arrived back in the uk but we feel totally let down by this holiday company and we will not be booking through these again!
