Power optional grass tent campsite

Liked: We received a very friendly welcome from Fred and staff. The site was spotlessly clean, we had a great pitch, good facilities, the pool was open and was absolutely lovely. Great cycle routes, we were able to cycle into La Cotiniere where we had some nice meals. Lots of things to do around the site.

Disliked: Nothing

Power optional grass tent campsite

Liked: Location was brilliant and tent section was quiet. Showers and facilities we’re great and friendly staff were helpful, Would recommend hiring a bike to see more of the area, beautiful island to see.

Disliked: the surrounding campsites have music playing until midnight, very noisy (not this campsite, just surrounding).

Local attractions

Pretty much flat and criss-crossed by bike paths, the Île d’Oléron is something of a cinch for cyclists. Routes lead through pine forest, across salt marshes and past vineyards to the island’s famous oyster shacks. A circular, all-day ride suitable for kids begins and ends in Dolus d’Oléron (10 minutes) and takes in sleepy Saint-Trojan-les-Bains (20 minutes) and Le Château d’Oléron (15 minutes). Stay awhile in Le Château d’Oléron to have a nose around the ruins of its once-mighty citadel, and as it’s the renowned capital of Marennes-Oléron oyster production, taste the local delicacy in one of its many cafés. Fancy getting out on the water? Then take a boat cruise out to Fort Boyard, built off-shore to defend the region in Napoleonic times, from Boyardville (15 minutes). To explore further afield on the mainland, take the Viaduc de l’Île d’Oléron (20 minutes) to historic La Rochelle (an hour and 20 minutes) to walk the medieval ramparts, surf off its beaches and meet creatures of the deep at Aquarium La Rochelle.
