Camping Les Charmes is a small campsite in the Vendée, near the Lac d'Apremont. You'll camp here in the French countryside, twenty kilometres from the Atlantic Ocean. On the very spacious, sheltered touring pitches on the park-like grounds, you'll be able to completely unwind. Need some extra relaxation? Take a massage at the wellness centre.

Very spacious touring pitches

The campsite looks like a park. Wide gravel and sandy paths take you over the green terrain to the very spacious touring pitches and well-kept mobile homes. The touring pitches are situated on lawns, delimited by hedges and trees. This gives you a nice sheltered pitch with a lot of privacy, which makes it extra calm on the already quiet campsite. Something the guests of camping Les Charmes appreciate.

Swimming pool, lake, ocean

Near the reception, at the front of the campsite, you’ll find the indoor swimming pool. This heated swimming pool, equipped with a paddling pool, is ideal for small children. Would you like it a little bigger? About four kilometres south of the campsite, the river Vie flows into the Lac d'Apremont. There you can lie down on a beach and take a dip in the natural water, but it is also possible to take a boat on the vast lake. The ocean and its beach are at 20 kilometres from the campsite.

Totally zen

Camping at Les Charmes is relaxing enough for many people, but you can add a little more. In the wellness centre you'll become totally zen. Let yourself be pampered with a massage, or let the bubbles do the work in the whirlpool. You can sweat it out in the sauna.

Campsite accepts ACSI Club ID

Travelling party: Family with children, 4 – 12 years

Liked - Small and family friendly. We really enjoyed our stay.. The site was clean and tidy and had a good swimming pool, kids play area, bar and games.
The owners were lovely and they really cared about our holiday. We’d definitely recommend and will return in the future.
Disliked - We wished we could speak more French, however we managed on what little we do speak. The owners and family spoke good English.

Liked - It was absolutely fab! Lovely people and great community. Very clean and some delicious meals if you don't feel like cooking. The whole place is beautiful and very easy to access all the activities around the area, including white water rafting and canyoning in the Pyrenees. What a stay, would highly recommend :)
