  • Small, family-friendly site in the Aube village of Soulaines-Dhuys
  • A 20-minute drive from Nigoland and Champagne house tours
  • Swimming pool and snack bar on site; public park next door
It’s Champagne all round for guests at Camping La Croix Badeau… the Champagne-Ardenne region, that is – surrounds that are stacked with splendid attractions. If you’ve got a special occasion to celebrate (a birthday, an engagement, a Wednesday…) there are indeed numerous wineries within a 20-minute drive where you can raise a toast with a glass of the sparkling stuff. Family hols demanding that you stay sober (at least until sundown)? A similar length of drive can get you to the outdoorsy activities of the Forêt de l’Orient Regional Natural Park, or the excellent Nigoland theme park. Getting to all these (and any other destination you may be planning) is straightforward, for the site is in a nifty setting a few minutes’ drive from the D960 main road – handily close but just far enough away to keep guests well away from any road noise. Also handily close is the village of Soulaines-Dhuys, a five-minute stroll away for supplies to cook up on your barbecue back at base. If there are times when you can’t face such an expedition, settle in on site with something from the snack bar instead. With meals so easily sorted, that leaves more time for chilling out on site, taking dips in the open-air swimming pool, supervising the small sorts as they scamper around the little playground or wandering next door to the public park, where there’s a larger playground and spaces for games of tennis, football and pétanque.

Electric grass and gravel pitch

Liked: Easy to get to from main road. Great location; loved hearing the church bells and the nature all around us. Lovely clean facilities, clean showers and washing up areas even with natural wild flowers in vases! Beautiful touch. Very friendly welcome, delicious pain au chocolats in the morning. Our favourite part was the pool which was a so clean and well kept. It was so brilliant to jump into a nice pool after a long drive from the shuttle. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Disliked: Nothing to dislike!

Electric grass and gravel pitch

Liked: Kristof, the host was great, he cannot do enough for his guests, always smiling & pleasant.
Quiet site close to the village, showers powerful and hot, facilities regularly cleaned. Pizzas, snacks and bar available. The pitches are large and separated by hedges.
Laundry facilities were useful as we were nearing the end of our tour.

We would definitely use this site again and maybe use the pool too.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike,

petit camping simple et sympa avec piscine. Très beaux emplacements ombragés, et surtout la gentillesse de Christophe qui se met en quatre pour nous faire plaisir, et qui a toujours le sourire. Petit séjour super sympa. Nous y reviendrons sans hésitations.

Local attractions

Fancy fuelling up on fresh air? Take a foray to the Forêt de l’Orient Regional Natural Park (20 minutes’ drive) for woodland walks and lake activities – fishing, waterskiing and birdwatching are all popular picks. For more aquatic antics, head to Lac du Der (25 minutes) for canoeing, sailing, waterside horse rides and beaches to swim from. Many famed historic celebs have passed this way over the centuries – learn a little about them by spending time at the Napoleon Museum in Brienne-le-Château (20 minutes), the Mémorial Charles De Gaulle (25 minutes) and Château de Cirey (25 minutes), one-time hangout of the writer Voltaire, and the place that inspired many of his bestsellers. A sure hit for a nipper-pleasing day out is Nigoland theme park (20 minutes), one of the country’s most popular parks with shows and a range of rides both extreme and gentle. Got a bit of grownup time? Take a trip to Colombé-la-Fosse (20 minutes) to raise a glass or few at one of the Champagne houses dotted around the village.
