  • Peaceful woodland campsite in the Avesnois Regional Natural Park
  • Lac du Val-Joly 10 minutes’ drive; Scandibérique 10 minutes by bike
  • Shared summer kitchen; breakfast, picnics and meals available
A laid-back and verdant Nord-Pas-de-Calais campsite, family-friendly Gitavesnois stretches over three and a half acres of secluded woodland in the lush Avesnois Regional Natural Park. It’s five minutes’ drive from the rural village of Willies, and when you book a stay there you can look forward to spectacular sunsets on clear evenings, wildflowers growing all around the pitches and a very warm welcome from the site owners.  Facilities tucked under the trees include a communal summer kitchen where you can cook and eat alfresco meals surrounded by greenery and peace. If you’d prefer someone else to do the catering for you (you’re on holiday, remember), a continental breakfast service, picnic lunches and an evening meal of seasonal local produce are all available for a charge and by prior booking. This leafy site is also very bike friendly, being 10 minutes’ cycle ride from the Scandibérique, the French section of the EuroVélo 3 pilgrimage route linking Trondheim in Norway to Santiago de Compostela on the west coast of Spain.

Local attractions

The sleepy village of Liessies (five minutes’ drive) has a scattering of restaurants, a summer corn maze in which to lose the kids at Labyrinthe Aventure, and easy family rambles (for when you’ve found them again) among woodland and orchards in the sprawling Parc de l’Abbaye de Liessies, centred on the ruins of a Benedictine abbey. All sorts of aquatic fun can be had at the Station Nautique du Val-Joly (five minutes), where you can hire kayaks and pedal boats to splash around on Lac du Val-Joly. Back on dry land, Accrobranche Val-Joly (10 minutes) has challenging mountain bike circuits, treetop rope courses for all skill levels and trampolines for younger kids. Culture-wise, there are several museums and ateliers showcasing local glassblowing and woodworking traditions within 15 minutes’ drive. And of course, if you want to sample some Belgian hospitality in the shape of a local beer or two, just slope across the border to the laidback bars in Sivry-Rance (also 15 minutes).
