OK chaps, I am having serious trouble trying to get a pitch booked. I am not getting any replies after leaving voice message @ samoureau and emailing Barbeau. Every f*****g year I struggle.HELP

Sorted. I think.

This is a first call for all the jazz fans hitting the Samois festival this year! We have a lovely house with rooms to rent and a big garden for camping which is really close to where the festival takes place (easy walking/staggering distance). Last year we had half a dozen tents and a houseful of friendly types - enjoyed it so much we'll be doing it all again this year! Rooms are €50-€80 a night, camping €30 pp, + €5 for breakfast, if you are up before lunchtime!
Last year's lot are happy to recommend - top camping space reserved for RIMM! Like to know more/see photos? Get in touch!

Since I live in Samois and speak french I don't mind popping along to the Barbeau and seeing the camping people there for anyone with problems...can probably answer most questions that you have.

I so wish this had been posted earlier but I've already booked - no cancellation - accomodation in Fontainebleau. Have a great time with your guests and I think it's very kind of you to offer to help the Campees at Barbeau - I stayed there once and it's "interesting" to say the least. I had a great time but the then site managers were a couple of characters and i saw one or two people get themselves into tricky situations because of the language barrier.

ANyway, have a great time one and all

Italy's entry in Eurovision was a certain Raphael Gulazzi, who also happens to be playing Samois. Should we be worried?

Hi Guys,

I tried to book my camping this year by phone at Petit barbeau but was told that they are full up. Last year I managed to get a reservation and I saw that a few people without bookings managed to get pitches also, so I am going to try that this year.

But! I am a little concerned that my pleading may fall on deaf ears (especially as my french is terrible - the aforementioned phone call was made by a kind friend - and there are four of us) Does anyone know of any other options if I can't get a pitch? Also, Samois I saw your wonderfully generous offer and was wondering if I may be able to contact you if I have any problems with barbeau? And buy you a beer or two as well! I hope that doesn't sound cheeky, it's just that I had such a brilliant time last year and would love to camp there again.

Thanks!

Pete

Hello! That would be marvellous, thank you. I'm just charging my phone then I'll call you in an hour or so if that's OK? Also, I don't know your name, would feel a bit strange asking for "Samois"!
