  • Between Bagnoles-de-l'Orne spa town and Lassay-les-Châteaux
  • A 10-minute drive to windsurfing and fishing at La Ferté-Macé lake
  • Spectacular views of the Normandie-Maine Regional Natural Park
What a pretty and petit site this is: on the edge of the Normandie Maine National Park, where the vista is verdant and the sunsets smashing, Camping La Patte d'Oie lies on the main road between Lassay-les-Châteaux and the spa town of Bagnoles de L’Orne (both an easy 10-minute drive from base), and you’re within easy reach of several tiptop attractions and historic sites too. If you’re looking for some family-friendly outdoor action for all while you’re on your hols, it’s worth knowing that this park is also a short drive to a 28-hectare lake and beach with a good selection of land- and water-based activities in and around it such as pedalo boating, windsurfing, canoeing and fishing, as well as volleyball, boules, miniature golf and a climbing wall. Pitches are laid out across four acres and have fably full views of the countryside that surrounds, and they're also handily just off the D34 for easy access to various jaunts, including the kilometre-long journey to the centre of Couterne village and its shops, boutiques, bars and cafés. The toilet and shower amenities are accessible, and a washing-up area is also at your disposal for cleansing the plastic picnic crockery and whatnot after balmy barbecue soirées on site.

Karen S. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: Small site only four touring pitches with electric hook up large pitches. There was only one shower/ toilet combined but that was no problem. The couple who run the place were lovely very chatty and brought us a cuppa and biscuit on arrival. Nice little touch. It’s not very close to a town but we used it as a stopover and would definitely use it again. Although quite close to the road we never heard traffic noise we just slept in the peaceful place.

Disliked: Nothing

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: Lovely friendly hosts from the UK. Lovely big pitches. Shower, toilet were large. Chickens were fab. All in all a lovely nights rest before moving on and the weather was good.

Disliked: The only downside was the road noise but they can't do much about that.

BK Bluebird 2 bedroom static caravan

Liked: Très bon accueil, couple sympathique et soucieux du confort de leurs clients. Ce n'est pas un camping étoilé, mais c'est tout de même un bon rapport qualité prix, surtout si l'on est de passage pour une nuit.

Disliked: Cependant il y avait de l'air qui rentrait à plusieurs endroits, il ne faisait donc pas très chaud.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Merci pour votre commentaire.
Nous sommes conscients que nous ne sommes pas un camping étoilé, mais nous pensons que nous sommes en mesure d'offrir les services d'un camping étoilé, parfois avec une touche un peu plus personnelle que les sites étoilés plus importants ne peuvent pas offrir.
Nous sommes heureux que votre nuitée ait été pratique, comme vous le dites, nous sommes idéalement placés pour plusieurs commodités.
En ce qui concerne le logement, il s'agit d'un ancien mobil-home et il est essentiel que l'air circule par les bouches d'aération pour éviter tout problème d'humidité.
Nous espérons cependant que vous reviendrez nous voir à l'avenir.

Convenient over night stop. Would have been a nice area to stay on.

Local attractions

There’s a good bit to do within easy reach of Camping La Patte d'Oie, whether you’re after strolls around historic sites, adrenalised outdoor adventure or some family fun based around the lake. First up, there’s heaps to do at beaut Bagnoles-de-l'Orne, a pretty old spa town with hot spring baths and a rather ample range of leisure facilities including a big public outdoor pool, tennis courts, a crazy golf course, cycle paths and a lake (with pedalo and rowing boat hire). A nine-hole golf course also lies nearby, and you can take to the town’s Vélo Rail to trip through d'Andaines forest too. The much larger 28-hectare lake at La Ferté-Macé (a fast 15 minutes’ drive from La Patte d'Oie) also has a whole stack of family activities to get stuck into: apart from pedalo boating, windsurfing, canoeing and fishing on the water itself, there’s an outdoor playground for kids to clamber around, as well as a climbing wall, a miniature golf course, volleyball, boules and a walking circuit around the lake’s perimeter. For something history based, visit the castles and medieval gardens of Lassay-les-Châteaux, or the town of Domfront, where there’s a medieval castle and old town as well as the Rouellé marshes for a bit of wildlife spotting and birdwatching.
