from 4 reviews Write review

Camping La Brande is situated on the southern coast of Ile d'Oléron, the second largest island in France after Corsica. This part of the island is known for oyster and mussel farming, fishing industry as well as viticulture. The campsite clearly caters to families with children. There is an entertainment program for all ages. There is also a nice restaurant on the campsite, where mussels are the speciality. A piece of meat or fish can be grilled on one of the communal barbecues.

Camping amidst green

The 115 camping pitches on the campsite are surrounded by greenery. You will find no less than fifty different types of trees and shrubs here. The pitches vary in size. You can also choose between shady and sunnier pitches.

Don't have your own camping equipment? No problem; you can choose from many different types of rental accommodation, varying in size and level of luxury. You can also rent a beautiful safari tent.

Slide and splash

There is a (heated) swimming pool measuring some 180 m2. The pool is covered with a sliding roof. There is also a fun slide. A paddling pool is available for the youngest campers. You can also indulge in the sauna or whirlpool. If you think the swimming pool is too small for your taste, the sea is less than five hundred metres away from the campsite.

Entertainment for the whole family

Small children can enjoy themselves at the mini club, but older children and adults will not have to feel bored for one minute. They can play a game of tennis, table tennis, jeu de boules, mini golf or throw a few strikes at the bowling alley. A particularly original activity is an excursion with a tractor to the oyster beds.

Travelling party: Couple

Wij komen hier regelmatig terug. Heel mooie camping met echt grote standplaatsen en moderne chalets. Wie graag kleine fietstochtjes maakt moet hier zijn. De bistro op de camping gaan wij niet meer in, het personeel rookt binnen. Op fietsafstand echter veel lekkere zaken. En op het eiland vind je de allerbeste pineau.

De staanplaatsen zijn hier heerlijk ruim.
De camping heeft een prachtige, rustige ligging, op fietsafstand van het gezellige Le Château.
Wij hebben hier twee heerlijke weken gehad.
Toen het fietsenrek op de vouwwagen het begaf, heeft een van de medewerkers enorm geholpen, zodat wij tijdig een nieuw fietsenrek konden ophalen, ondanks een lange levertijd.
Wij waren hier in het voorseizoen, dus er waren niet veel activiteiten. Ook hadden wij geen kinderen bij ons, dus die punten kunnen wij niet beoordelen.
We hebben genoten en komen graag weer terug.

Zeer vriendelijk onthaal, mooie en nette staanplaats. Sanitair verwarmd en zeer proper. Op fiets afstand van Le Chateau. De meeste campings op ile d\'oleron waren in oktober niet toegankelijk voor campers maar in la Brande was dit geen probleem. Mooie ligging dicht bij de zee. Een aanrader.
