  • Family campsite at Saint-Julien-de-Concelles in the Pays de la Loire
  • Nantes 25 minutes’ drive, Puy du Fou 55 minutes
  • Direct access to a lakeside leisure centre, walking and cycling routes
When you’re after a relaxing family break surrounded by lush nature, take a look at Camping du Chêne in the Pays de la Loire village of Saint-Julien-de-Concelles. Life on this site is all about rediscovering the ‘slow life’ amid – as its name suggests – oak forest, giving you the chance to recharge your batteries and unfold your holiday at your own pace. But the chilled vibe on site doesn’t mean there isn’t plenty to do. Far from it, in fact. Guests have direct access to the Chêne lake for carp and pike fishing, plus kayaking, catamaran sailing, windsurfing and paddleboarding from the Cap Sport and Nature Leisure Centre (five minutes’ walk). There’s a playground to keep youngsters occupied, plus tennis courts, beach volleyball nets near the lake and a boules ground for family competitions. You can also follow waymarked walks through the surrounding woods – keeping an eye out for the busy bees foraging for nectar from the lakeside hives. If you’re into more long-distance hikes, several are accessible right from the site – and cyclists don’t miss out either, as the Loire à Vélo bike track passes the campsite. Foodie concerns are all taken care of too: there’s a breakfast service (put orders in the night before), a terrace restaurant overlooking the lake and an on-site grocery store for stocking up on essentials.

Local attractions

For big-city adventures, head for historic Nantes (25 minutes’ drive) to tour the mighty medieval Château des Ducs de Bretagne, towering over the Loire River, and spot the ornate marble tombs of French royalty in the Gothic-style cathedral. Culture all done, hop aboard the gigantic animatronic Grand Éléphant and take a walking tour of the Île de Nantes, before heading to a Place du Bouffay bar for a glass of local Muscadet wine. To see history brought to life in a spectacular way, flit between theatrical extravaganzas – with casts of hundreds – featuring Roman gladiator battles and Viking longboat sieges at Puy du Fou theme park (55 minutes), where you can also watch birds of prey in flight and blacksmiths at work. If a day at the seaside is requested, head to the sweeping bay at La Baule-Escoublac (an hour and 10 minutes), which has beach clubs for the kids and gentle waves safe for swimming. If the tide’s going out, see if you can spot ‘The Ocean Snake’ sculpture by Chinese artist Huang Yong Ping as it appears from the waves at Saint-Brevin-les-Pins (an hour).
