  • Family campsite in a green Vendée setting edging the Breton wetlands
  • Atlantic beaches 10 minutes by bike; Île de Noirmoutier half an hour
  • Restaurant, pétanque court and playground; access to cycling paths
Keen to ditch the car on your family camping break in the Vendée? Camping Le Grand Jardin has a peaceful location in a green setting with trees, 10 minutes by bike from Atlantic beaches, and allows direct access to the cycle paths criss-crossing the marshy landscapes of the Breton wetlands. If you’re bringing your own bikes, there are secure sheds to store them in, but otherwise hire them in the centre of Notre-Dame-de-Monts (10 minutes' walk away) and get out to explore the area around the town whenever you feel like it. Not keen on cycling? There’s plenty of other stuff happening at this relaxed site to keep everyone happy and entertained. The heated indoor pool is open for family fun and games during high season, and you can fish for carp or set out on canoeing adventures along the Taillée river, which backs the site. A kids’ club – with lots of workshops and games – is available during the week in high season, and there’s a playground with slides and ping-pong tables as well as a pétanque court where you can challenge newfound friends to competitions. Stock up on barbecue bits and pieces in Notre-Dame-de-Monts shops, or eat in the casual restaurant on site, open for snacks, lunch and dinner – takeaways are available too.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Lovely site, pitched next to our friends, as requested. Quiet family site, access to the river, a small pool, play park & holiday club. 25 min walk to gorgeous beaches, or in to town for food & ice cream. Supermarket within walking distance.
Facilities were clean and adequate, reception staff were friendly & welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Very nice site with friendly helpful staff. Beautiful location.

Local attractions

Keen to up the activity levels? Cycle through pine forest to the numerous sandy Bay of Biscay beaches, including Plage de la Grande Côte (20 minutes by bike) for sand yachting, paddleboarding and sea-kayaking adventures. For less demanding action, saunter along way-marked trails in the woodland at Pey de la Blet (15 minutes), or amble over the dunes at Plage de la Bergère (20 minutes), known for its spectacular sunsets on clear days. Flat, sandy and connected to the Vendée mainland by bridge, tiny Île de Noirmoutier (half an hour) lends itself to being discovered by bike. Cycle routes lead past forests and salt marshes to expansive beaches like peaceful Plage des Sables d’Or (55 minutes) for leisurely dips in the sea, or Plage des Dames (an hour and 20 minutes) for dinghy sailing. Keen on history? Tour the keep, courtyard and ramparts at medieval Château de Noirmoutier (an hour and 15 minutes). Need to ease aching muscles after all the cycling? Book a restorative massage or steam room at Valdys Resort in Saint-Jean-de-Monts (10 minutes’ drive).
