Why stay here ...

This pretty verdant site, is a haven for nature lovers and for anyone who loves peace and tranquility. Its friendly new owners and staff work hard to make sure guests enjoy their stay in this popular campsite.

New this year to the swimming pool area, with its paddling pool for the younger children, is a superb 12 person jacuzzi available from mid june to mid september.
The lovely restaurant offers a range of local cuisine and there is the newly redecorated indoor area with bar and an outside terrace set in the garden to enjoy al fresco dining in the shade of the trees.

Set across from the banks of the Sevre River, in the heart of the Marais Poitevin, this site is perfect for fishing and the site hires out canoes and bicycles enabling guests to explore the local area. Visitors can discover many signposted walking paths, 300 kms of cycle trails as well as the canals with boats to hire, just perfect to explore in different ways.

The views from the river are picturesque with quaint houses dotted along the riverside and plenty of spots for a picnic along the way. The historic village of Coulon is within walking or cycling distance along the river banks and offers other dining possibilities. There is a local bus service that runs to the railway station 600 metres from the site. Around and about in the area are many fabulous day trips to the local islands and the town of Niort.
