Canvas vs Eurocamp - Northern France

Options
We are looking at visiting Domaine des Ormes for seven nights at the start of July - driving from Glasgow.

On the Eurocamp website a "2 bed 1 bath Esprit + Deck" is £650 for the week but with Canvas a "Choice - 2 bedroom deck" is £450.

This is quite the price difference for what appears to be almost identical accommodation. Is there something else we are missing by booking with Canvas?

    We have used both companies. There is nothing to choose between them. I would go for whoever is cheapest.

    We often used keycamp and eurocamp, but then discovered venue holidays. They are a much smaller version but offer everything the big boys do. Just cheaper. Canvas are on lots of sites so I'd book.with them personally

    Thank you all for the responses, I'll consider Canvas over Eurocamp directly.

    I've used them all more times than I can count over the years. It used to be the case that with one companys initial rate would include the ferry, and another wouldn't. These days there's nothing in it, but canvas usually comes up cheaper like for like.
    I'd not hesitate to go with them.
