Key Camp or own tent - where is good in France?

[Beetrootccio]

Money is tight this year - so no luxery villas for us - where can we go?

Euro camp? is it full of plebs drinking english beer?

Look in the camping section or search the archive - there have been lots of threads already recommending campsites in France - the Vendee seems popular.

thanks but I want personal attention

I've not been Beety but am interested. Cod pointed me in the direction of keycamps adn they look quite good.

Personal touch coming up:

We liked Jablines (just east of Paris) a couple of years ago. Good site, excellent showers etc, small playground and shop. In a nature centre redeveloped from a disused gravel pit, tyheres a nice inland beach, swimming lake, watersports elsewhere on the lake, bike hire, 15mins drive from Eurodisney and therefore easy to get to Paris by train from the Eurodisney stop.

Tho' IIRC someone said they had a health scare re the lakewater there last year.

Eurocamp etc is good for nice relaxing holiday without too much hassle - stick to the small sites though (we tend to stick to 250 pitches and less). They will still have good facilities but less of the english beer. We went to a v large one out of season once and in high season we would not have enjoyed it at all I don't think.

Where do you want to be - do you need to be near the sea etc?

We are extremely anti social on holiday if that is any reassurance.

i think we wjoudl like to be near the sea. water sports,

I don't like other people - but am sure my kids would be happy hanging out with others although we can be very self contained as there are 6 of us.

Would like it to be French - not interested in English on Holiday with beer and f &C

if you can bear south of france in summer holidays we stayed here once - is near Frejus, small and quite quiet but with nice pool and restaurant. We went with Eurocamp but you can book direct.

vendee might be a bit english too - what about further south on that coast below Bordeaux? not been to any sites there but quite fancy it.

that link looks nice,

We know bordeaux so think it cjoudl be fun to go near there and then we can hook up with ggg again.

Beety am I a chav??

I go to Eurocamp/kaycamp sites and they are great in France. If you look at the camping threads there is more info. However you owuld like this one la garenoire I know coddy is going here this summer, I used to go there as a child

We went here last year. Not too english and great pool. No beaches though.

I would look at vendee for water sports, and like other say keep away from large sites. I fancy here this year. Ile de re is all cycling and frech people. It is v french and laid back, paris by the sea Not party town at all.

Look at booking some of these direct if you are not going to use eurocamp kids clubs as you can do it much cheaper as high season is pricey with eurocamp. We book direct with our huge 3 bed tent last year paid about £300 for campsite and ferry (loads of tesco vouchers)

all those look ok crunchie - hmm- it is all a bit scary though
