  • Large pitches at a 200-hectare estate near Saint-Julien-des-Landes
  • A 15-minute drive to the Vendée beaches; 55 minutes to Puy du Fou
  • Pool complex, lagoon beach, restaurant and lots of activities on site
Seeking some space to relax? You’ll certainly have plenty of that at Camping La Garangeoire – this Vendée site is part of a 200-hectare estate five minutes’ drive from Saint-Julien-des-Landes, with a rather magnificent historic house at its centre. The large size of the site means plenty of space to spread out on all the pitches, and it also means plenty of facilities for guests. The estate has been welcoming guests since way back in 1964, and in the intervening years the owners have continued to add more and more extras so they can now boast pretty much everything you’d want from a holiday location. On the entertainment front, that means a heated outdoor pool complex (with slides, a paddling pool and various activities including water polo and night swims), a sauna and massage room, two tennis courts, a football pitch, miniature golf, playgrounds, fishing ponds, an outdoor fitness area and trampolines. And that’s not all… there are also daily activities for kids and adults alike (including archery sessions, yoga and football training), plus bike hire, pedal go-kart hire, nature walks and a horse riding centre for kids’ pony rides, adult lessons and trail rides in the forest. And even that’s not all… because you’ll probably also want to leave some time for the beach area, which has a lovely lagoon that goes to a maximum depth of 90cm and is just the place for taking the kids for a safe paddle or swim. Meanwhile, when it comes to the essentials, there are plenty of those around too: the site has a restaurant, bar, wine bar, takeaway, supermarket, launderettes, electric vehicle charging… and a reception area with friendly staff who can help sort anything not on the list.

Fully-serviced grass pitch (private bathroom amenities)

Liked: * Wonderful spacious pitch with private facilities. * Excellent range of activities on the site. * Very friendly and helpful staff. * Beautiful surroundings. * Superb restaurant. * Swimming pools and plenty of sunbeds. * Everything is very well-maintained.

Disliked: * Remote location if you don't have a car - local cycle route to the nearest beach is hilly and over difficult terrain with no shuttle bus outside July and August. *Bar and restaurant don't offer decaf coffee (bring your own).

Non-electric grass tent or campervan pitch

Liked: Large pitches, good amenities like a shop and even a takeaway if you don't fancy cooking. Good selection of pools

Disliked: Over the top and over complicated checking in process. Bombarded with too much information upon arrival, when you finally can check in. Groundskeepers hedge trimming from 8 am for several hours. For a 5* site the shower facilities are dated and not cleaned enough.

Castel fully-serviced grass pitch (premium)

Liked: Big pitches, a good mix of quiet areas plus lots to do for the kids Excellent food in the restaurant Lots of shade under the trees

Disliked: All the trees meant no satellite signal on our pitch. Unfortunately poor phone signal at the pitch so could not use data reliably.

Local attractions

If you’re coming to the Vendée it’s likely that you’d like to spend some time at the beach. The easiest way to do that is to hop on the shuttle bus that runs to local beaches once a week in summer. If you’d rather travel under your own steam, it’s a 15-minute drive to Bretignolles-sur-Mer, or just under half an hour to Saint Gilles Croix de Vie or Les Sables d’Olonne. There are plenty of activities to try over at the beaches – and in the local area too. There’s a circuit of five golf courses around the park, plus go-karting at Circuit Mecamax (20 minutes’ drive), walks and bike rides at Lac de Jaunay (10 minutes) and aerial adventures at Le Grand Défi (five minutes). If you’re after a full-on family day out, plan a trip to Puy du Fou (55 minutes) – the history-inspired theme park is packed with rides, activities and shows so you’ll easily fill a day there with the kids.
