  • Family-friendly site under two kilometres from the coast
  • Within five kilometres of Omaha beach and 10 kilometres from Bayeux
  • Playground and shop on site; barbecues permitted
Two top Normandy destinations are a breeze to get to from family-friendly Camping L'Hypo'Camp: the World War II memorial of Omaha beach (five kilometres) and the spectacular sight of the Bayeux Tapestry, within 10. Omaha beach, the one five kilometres away, has a watersports centre with sailing activities. When you return back to base, there are more ways to unwind, as the quiet site has a children's play area with a seesaw and swings. Barbecues are allowed on site too for alfresco dinners, and there's the convenience of having a small grocery shop on site if you need to gather ingredients. There are also other amenities including two well-maintained shower and toilet blocks. L'Hypo'Camp is outside the coastal commune of Colleville-sur-Mer, just under 40 kilometres from Calvados department capital Caen.

Disliked Our pitch (35) was a little limited as it had a tree on it which shortened the width. We were in a campervan, but doubt a MH would fit (but doubt owners would put a MH unit on it anyway)

Liked lovely campsite, very friendly staff who spoke amazing English and couldn't do enough to make our stay enjoyable they even lent us a camp bed when ours broke . The pitches were massive and very flat. A couple of toilet/shower blocks with 2 toilets and showers in each block so we never had to wait for a shower, no toilet paper in the toilets but there is a dispenser on the wall that is regularly topped up . There is a very little shop to get basics and a bar that serves drinks till 7.Supermarket 5 miles down the road
Thank you so much for make our stay so enjoyable

Disliked WIFI kept dropping out but the site was full so totally understandable

Liked Really friendly campsite set right next to Omaha beach. Such a mix of nationalities staying on one sight was really lovely. Staff were really friendly and gave you a warm welcome. You can order fresh bread and pastries daily to collect in the morning. Would definitely visit again.

Disliked The site was very full and our pitch was quite shady so next time we would try to book a sunnier spot.

Liked Great campsite, lots of greenery, beautiful birdsong every evening, staff were amazing, very friendly, English spoken, there is a small bar and shop, great place to meet fellow travellers, go between 5 and 7pm, sit in sunshine, with local beer and cidre

Disliked Nothing dislike here, I would definitely return, probably be a good idea to have a bike, I walk a lot, so Omaha beach and US cemetery 3 miles away was a lovely countryside walk

Local attractions

Normandy tourist destinations of Omaha beach and the Bayeux Tapestry see hundreds of thousands of visitors to this region every year. The Normandy American Cemetery and Memorial is at the site's local town of Colleville-sur-Mer, overlooking the beach; at Bayeux, take time to see the town as well as its famous tapestry, stopping off at the 11th-century cathedral, the Memorial Museum of the Battle of Normandy, and, if you're here for World War II remembrance, the British war cemetery just outside town. The fishing, horse riding and canoeing within the same distance should provide plenty of entertainment by the coast, as should the local sands within a kilometre, and the fishing boat views from the harbour of Port-en-Bessin, three kilometres from the site. The World War II memorial and museum of La Pointe du Hoc within 20 minutes' drive of the site. Also, remember to take your chance to have a tour of the Isigny Sainte Mère Coopérative (20 minutes' drive) cheese and butter factory.
