Family activities around the campsites
Unusual accommodation is great, but family memories are even better. And that's what campsites are good at. Between nature, games and discoveries, the days fly by.
Entertainment for young and old
Whether by the water, under the trees or in a yurt, there's no shortage of activities. Treasure hunts after dark, escape games in the great outdoors, creative workshops in tents, educational farms... there's always something to explore. In the evening, it's time for some magic: storytelling evenings, shows under the stars, or sky-watching sessions from a transparent bubble. Suspended moments that leave a lasting impression on young and old alike.
Water parks and leisure activities
Diving into the unusual also works in a swimming costume. Toboggans, lagoons, wave pools... Some campsites go so far as to integrate their accommodation into the aquatic setting: imagine a perched hut with a view over the water jets or a tiny house a stone's throw from a magical pool. The little ones can splash around in the themed paddling pools, while the teenagers have fun on the floating structures or try out the wild rivers. Evenings are sometimes extended in the whirlpool baths... under the stars.
Last-minute breaks
There's no need to plan six months in advance for a magical getaway. Some campsites offer special last-minute deals on their unusual accommodation. A caravan available this weekend? A free yurt at a bargain price? Between May and June, special offers abound, especially during the week. Fewer people, more choice, and lower prices... The ideal opportunity to go away on a
whim. A word of advice: staying flexible on dates and keeping an eye on flash offers can make all the difference. Sometimes the magic starts just a few days before departure.
Book your family weekend
To make the most of the experience, it's best to plan ahead, especially in spring or during the summer holidays. Unusual accommodation is in great demand (and it's easy to see why). Fortunately, the mid-season (May-June, September) is still a perfect time: fewer people, lower prices, and ideal temperatures for sleeping in a cabin or cooking in a tiny house. Need accommodation for a large tribe? Some campsites offer lodges for up to 8 people. And on the booking platforms, it's easy to filter according to the type of accommodation, the number of beds, or the services on offer. Everything you need to choose the perfect spot.
