Recommended activities to do near mobile home campsites
Looking for some interesting things to do while on your next mobile home camping trip in France? Here’s some tips and inspiration for you!
A mobile home at the seaside
Take your family to the beach with mobile home campsites. With a host of beautiful seaside camping spots conveniently located at or near to beaches, you can choose from locations such as Vendee, Brittany, Agde and Argeles Sur Mer to enjoy some coastal family time.
Cultural highlights on your doorstep
By booking a mobile campsite holiday you can guarantee that you will be in close proximity to some wonderful historical sites of yesteryear. Book campsites near monuments, castles and museums and teach young kids about French heritage. In Les Breuils you can visit the Verdun War Memorial or see authentic historic dwellings at the Chateau de Chambord.
Natural wonders and National Parks
Book a campsite in the heart of the countryside and unwind the way nature intended. Domaine de la Bergerie in Provence is nestled in the shade of pine trees between seas and hills, while the Natural Park of Perigord offers nature at her finest. The Olonne Pine Forest and L’Ardeche Nature Reserve are also great choices.
Family sporting activities
With mobile home campsites you get the opportunity to enjoy all kinds of amenities, and water parks are especially popular. Enjoy playground slides, jacuzzis and fantastic swimming pools in regions such as Lesconil, Loire or Atur, and get playing like a kid again.
Stroll through the local village and learn about new cultures
Take the family into the local village and support a family-owned bistro by sampling traditional French village cuisine made from locally produced, organic foods and wines. Saint Geiez d’Olt and Theys are particularly great villages for food. Don’t forget to try the onion soup.
Do your groceries for the week at a local market
Stroll through the local markets and choose from handcrafted artisanal foods, antiques and trinkets. Not only will you be supporting a local industry, but you will also be experiencing authentic France. The Dordogne Valley is especially famous for its markets.
Spend the day exploring on a bicycle
Many campsites either offer bicycle rental or can direct you to a bike hire venue in the village. Explore local terrain as a family on bikes and feel the wind and sun on your skin as you explore Argeles’ olive groves, the wooded parks of Le Brévedent, or the pine forests of La Chaponette.
Arts and culture while camping
With museums dotted all over France, you would be hard-pressed not to find some arts and culture to share with your kids. Nice and Grasse are both brimming with museums near campsites.
Benefits of staying at a French mobile home campsite
There’s a variety of great benefits to a mobile home camping holiday whether you’re a newcomer to camping or a seasoned veteran of the French camping scene, they include:
