  • Peaceful rural site with stunning views in the Charente-Maritime
  • A 20-minute drive to Jonzac; 10 minutes to the Galope Chopine Greenway
  • Swimming pool on site; access to hiking and biking on quiet roads
What could be more typical of the French countryside than a stay surrounded by vineyards and sunflower fields? And that’s what you’ll get at Bellevues Glamping and Camping, a peaceful rural spot in the Charente-Maritime – one of the sunniest regions of south-west France – with several acres of private grounds to explore (bring your dogs to join you on your explorations) and hilltop views across the vines to admire. This peaceful place is somewhere to sunbathe, rest in a shady spot with a favourite book, or bring a sketchpad to try and capture the landscape on paper. Cool off in the pool, stroll around the grounds, witness spectacular sunrises… then after dark, gaze up at the starry skies on clear nights – after a couple of days, you’ll almost certainly be completely chilled. There’s accommodation to match all styles of camping – and all pockets – and you have direct access to walks and cycle rides on quiet country roads past fields of vines, taking in the sleepy village of Mérignac (10 minutes on foot, five minutes by bike). If you need to top up the foodie supplies, head for Montendre (15 minutes’ drive), a small market town with shops for all your essentials, a weekly produce market (Thursdays, with night markets on Tuesday during July and August) and a scattering of restaurants and wine caves in which to sample the local vintages.

Liked: Absolutely perfect. This site has a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere thanks to Richard and Linda. We had a stunning view from our tent which we enjoyed watching the sunset after a refreshing dip in the pool. We couldn’t have asked for more from our final camping stop. We will definitely be remembering Bellevues Glamping and Camping for next time!

Disliked: Absolutely nothing

Mademoiselle Green bell tent (no pets)

Liked: The beautiful set up of the tent, kitchen and bathroom. Nothing was forgotten, even spare chargers/ adapters were included. The whole site is so peaceful but the owners are always on hand to help with anything at all. Set in a beautiful area, this feels like a secret corner of France. The stay was perfect. Thank you.

Disliked: Nothing.

Local attractions

For those who are keen to explore the Charente-Maritime on two wheels, the Galope Chopine Greenway passes through Chantillac (10 minutes’ drive) and provides easy cycling for families. Other kid-centric expeditions could include a trip to Mysterra, Parc des Labyrinthes à Montendre (45 minutes by bike) for interactive games in the woodland, or the Maison de la Forêt (40 minutes) in Haute-Saintonge Forest, which has themed displays on local wildlife and views across the woodland from its observation tower. Families looking for leisurely downtime together can spend the day floating on the lazy river and shooting down slides at Les Antilles de Jonzac waterpark, or stop by at the multimedia exhibits on the future of energy at the Maison de l’Energie – Espace FRANCE Rénov (both 20 minutes’ drive). For jaunts into photogenic towns, Barbezieux-Saint-Hilaire (25 minutes) is packed with striking 15th-century mansions and châteaux. Jonzac (20 minutes) has its own landmark castle which stands over the Seugne Valley and is now open for tours of its lavish 17th-century apartments.
