If you just want an overnight there is also Camping Village du Lac at Bordeaux as well as the site you mention - but it would be a pity to rush on without at least a day in the city.
But if you want to stay somewhere really different there is the municipal campsite site at Blaye - actually inside the walls of the historic Vauban fortress. Approach to Blaye is from junction 38 of the motorway on the north side of Bordeaux, and the final access to the campsite is to drive over a drawbridge across the castle moat, through the stone arch and the original guard house, and then choose a pitch on the ramparts with a view overlooking the estuary. But it's not a posh site, and doesn't open until 1st May, so not everyone's cup of tea.

PS. I forgot, it's stone bridge a drawbridge, here's the entrance. It might tempt someone !

thanks all , we are off next Tuesday Poole Cherburg so did not want to dilly dally in France as weather could be a bit doggey, but we are going to give France a whirll on our way back in June, but will be leaving Spain from somewhere around Barcelona then heading west across France, camping Montreal is looking good as is camping Anse du Brick in Cherbourg where we will stop for a few days to sort the dog out, must say travel in France looks to be a little bit more of a challenge than Spain.
