  • Family-friendly site outside Saint-Denis-d’Oléron, on the Île d’Oléron
  • Phare de Chassiron five minutes’ drive; Fort Louvois 40 minutes
  • Dogs welcome; indoor heated pool and wellness area; restaurant
On the north-eastern tip of the Île d’Oléron, one kilometre north of Saint-Denis-d’Oléron, Vacances ULVF - Les Beaupins is a top spot for a seaside-y family holiday. Indeed, there are so many beaches scattered along both coasts of this island in the Bay of Biscay that you can probably choose a different one for each day of your stay. Fancy a sheltered sandy beach with shallow waters where you can have a go at paddleboarding? Head to Plage de la Boirie (five minutes’ drive – or hire a bike on site, so you don’t have to worry about parking; it takes about the same time to cycle as it does to drive). Plage des Huttes (10 minutes, or 15 minutes by bike) is more exposed, and the place to visit if you’re into kite- or windsurfing. Plage de Chaucre (15 minutes, or 25 minutes by bike) has rockpools at low tide, and it is a top spot for sunset watching. The site is so close to the sea that you might be able to hear the ocean from your shaded pitch. On days when the ocean roars (instead of gently murmuring) and feels a little rough, you can head to the on-site heated indoor pool (with a paddling area) or to the wellness zone, which has a sauna and Jacuzzi. Alternatively, take a break from the water altogether and make the most of the other on-site facilities, such as the pétanque court or the multisports fields. This dog-friendly site also has a playground, a restaurant/bar and a food shop, as well as a toilet/shower block and a launderette.

Liked The staff are really nice and helpful, the facilities are very clean and I like the shower cubicles that also have a sink in them.

The pool is large and clean, would be good if they open the roof a little bit further, there was one day where the roof wasn’t opened at all and it was around 30 degrees.

The bar and quality of the drinks is good. Well priced too.

The food and entertainment is pretty good too

Location is good, I liked the cycle to the town and to the beach etc which was easy.

Disliked The pitch we had for our camper van and awning etc, was large but it felt enclosed because it was between to static caravans. Would have preferred to be with other camper vans with a hedge between pitches etc. which is common in France.

Power optional grass and earth campsite

Liked Emplacements spacieux. Grande piscine. Personnel très aimable.

Disliked Pas assez d'ombre. Il faut peut-être envisager d'ombrager avec des filets de camouflage (par exemple). Tendus entre 4 poteaux..... Surtout que les canicules vont être de plus en plus fréquentes

Local attractions

On the northernmost tip of the island is the Phare de Chassiron lighthouse (five minutes’ drive or a half-hour stroll), built in the 19th century and surrounded by elegantly manicured gardens. It’s worth climbing the 224 steps to the top for distant views of Île de Ré, across the strait. Designed in the 1600s by Louis XIV’s military architect Vauban, Fort Louvois (40 minutes) sits between the Île d’Oléron and the mainland. At low tide, it can be accessed on foot; at other times, you’ll have to take the shuttle boat to visit its ramparts, barracks and powder house. On the river Charente, Rochefort (an hour) is surrounded by marshes and mudflats inhabited by storks and avocets. A nearby hangar houses the aircraft of the Musée de l’Aéronautique Navale, while in town the Old School of Naval Medicine, founded in the late 18th century to train surgeons on board warships, sits in a splendid park.
