Perks for the Parents
This luxury tent within a small luxury camp for families in a beautiful, lesser-visited part of the French countryside, sleeps up to 2 adults and 3 children. One safari tent has an extra sleeping space for families of up to 5 children. Parents can relax while kids play, make friends and run around and have adventures in the open air. The hosts take the hassle out of camping and throw in as much luxury as they can. For parents who want to unwind without leaving the camp, professional onsite massages and yoga classes are available with advanced notice. WiFi is available in the communal areas but most guests prefer to turn off their devices and enjoy the tranquility.
Why Kids Love it
This camp is a great spot for an adventure. Older kids can build a woodland den, play on the trampoline, learn to play petanque or play on the tree swing; younger kids can dig in the sand box, or try out the toys and games provided. There are pets to play with (at the time of writing 2 guinea pigs and 2 puppies, 2 dwarf goats and a cat) and a veg patch. The natural swimming pool is chemical free and has a pebble beach and shallow end perfect for little ones who can splash around with the frogs and learn about nature. And as a family-oriented spot, plenty of new friends to make too. Babies get proper cribs; kids get proper mattresses on full size beds, plus duvets and pillows.
