  • Leafy family site five minutes’ drive from Louviers in Normandy
  • Biotropica animal park 25 minutes’ drive; Jardin de Monet 45 minutes
  • Set in a forest with a snack bar and miniature golf course on site
A handy stopover between Paris and seaside Deauville, at roughly an hour’s drive from both, Camping Les Escales also makes a wonderfully peaceful base for exploring Normandy. Whatever your holiday plan, this leafy spot in a forest on the outskirts of the lively town of Louviers has lots of family-friendly amenities and a thoroughly laid-back vibe that will tempt you to linger on site. The meticulously maintained grass pitches are bordered by trees and hedges to ensure everyone's privacy and have access to a token-operated washing machine and dryer in the laundry room. Kids can make use of the miniature golf course, football, swings, table tennis and pétanque court. When you're ready for more family time, take a dip at the heated outdoor pool (open during high season only). As for dogs, they can stretch their legs in the forest, where there are plenty of hiking trails. Foodwise, there's a snack bar open every morning and evening, with different menus available depending on the season. In high season, bread and pastries are delivered every morning. And if you need something specific, there are supermarkets, delis and a pharmacy in Louviers (five minutes away by car).

What customers say

This peaceful campsite, set amongst trees, offers spacious pitches and a friendly welcome. Visitors praise the helpful staff, good food at the on-site cafe/restaurant, and the clean pool. However, several reviews highlight dated and sometimes unhygienic toilet facilities, often lacking toilet paper and soap. Some guests also noted issues with WiFi connectivity.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked Pleasant and welcoming owner. Neat, peaceful and tidy site, well marked out pitches with hedging and attractive trees, gravel paths. Only one toilet/shower block (male and female separate) with washing up area plus washer and dryer. Facilities clean but no toilet paper or soap so remember to bring your own for every toilet visit! On-site bar/bistro (we didn’t use as self-catering), a small play area and boules pitch, swimming pool (closed from end of August however).

Disliked Unfortunately nearby road noisy with commuter traffic from about 4am! Not the campsite’s fault but you might want to select a pitch at the far side instead. There are several old toilet blocks around the site which are locked and not used (these would benefit from being resurrected, no doubt on the owner’s to-do list?) Little pathway lighting at night so bring a torch! No toilet paper in cubicles.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked Staff friendly and helpful, quite site with decent size pitch, virtually insect free, bar, pizzas good. Very shady so would be good in hot weather. Easy access to Rouen if using the Southern side park and ride & Louviers itself isn't unattractive with some interesting buildings, worth a visit. Competitively priced, wifi free within a zone near bar.

Disliked Shady in autumn with silver birch seeds getting everywhere. Electric hook up capacity like many continental sites must be low as electrics cut out on several occasions. Facilities are a little tired but clean. No wifi to pitch available.

Local attractions

In the (unlikely) event that the kids should tire of the swimming pool, they can have a romp on the go karts, treetop climbing courses and bouncy castles at Tolysland amusement park (half an hour’s drive), or get down with the red pandas and lorikeets in the glasshouse at Biotropica (25 minutes). If you all need to run off some energy, the indoor themed games at Urban’Paintball (20 minutes) should do nicely. For a dip into local culture, check out the half-timbered medieval houses, the ornate flying buttresses of Gothic-era Church of Notre-Dame and crumbing remains of the Cloître des Pénitents in Louviers (five minutes), sitting prettily on multiple channels of the River Eure. Learn more about the town’s textile-making past at the Museum of Louviers, with its displays of old weaving looms side-by-side with Impressionist paintings. Talking of the Impressionists, a 45-minute drive sees you at the spectacular and famed Jardin de Monet in Giverny, where you can spot the waterlily pond and bridge that featured in so many of the artist’s paintings and have a nose around his studio.
