Our mobile home benefits from a large open grassed area to the front which is perfect for children to play in. The plot is in a cul-de-sac and enjoys a lot of peace and privacy. It is in one of the original parts of Les Charmettes where mature trees, hedges and owners’ gardens give a wonderful ambiance. We think it is one of the best parts of the park! Our pitch is very handily placed for all amenities (less than a 2 minute walk from water park, bar, restaurant, theatre etc.)

Location

Les Charmettes is one France’s top holiday parks and is rightly proud of its reputation. With all its attractions and facilities, the park is perfect for families with children. However, the large number of mature owners proves that Les Charmettes also has lots to offer people of all ages.

The water park with its newly upgraded and refurbished range of pools, slides and entertainment, is the jewel in the crown, but kids’ clubs, tennis courts, gym, boules, crazy golf, bike hire, table-tennis, archery, pool tables, bar, restaurant, take-away food outlets, theatre and an entertainment team, all ensure a wide selection of activities for everyone.

The park now has a large, new well-stocked supermarket too.

Les Charmettes is a large park, set in beautiful surroundings with an abundance of a variety of trees, featuring oak and pine. Wildlife abounds: cuckoos, linnets, storks, green and gold finches, redpolls, black redstarts, red and black kites, buzzards, hoopoes, heron, hares, small lizards and tree frogs have all been seen on or from our plot. The area is well-known for its storks too.

Les Charmettes is immaculately kept and the staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The management makes every effort to ensure that everything runs smoothly and that nobody’s holiday is spoiled by unruly individuals.

Fun passes: Please note that all persons require a “fun pass” in order to be able to access many of the facilities and entertainments on the park. Children under 4 do not require passes. Passes are not included in our rental price, but can be ordered online at a discount from Siblu. However, for the first two bookings of two weeks or more in July or August we will provide two adult passes free of charge for the whole stay.

Outside Les Charmettes: If you think the park sounds good, wait until you go exploring! The French are mad-keen cyclists and the area is incredibly well furnished with cycle tracks; separate tarmacked tracks run alongside most roads and the abundant pine and oak forests in the area are criss-crossed by quality cycle tracks too. Remember that we have two adult bikes for your use. Additional bikes can be hired on the park, around 50 yards from our pitch! From our plot it is an easy, flat ride of around 20 minutes to one of the beaches at La Palmyre; the nearby upmarket holiday resort. The beaches have literally miles of soft sand with one being is over 7 miles long! La Palmyre also has the biggest zoo in France and is well worth a visit. Some other beach resorts within a 30-60 minute drive are: St Palais, Royan; Chatelaillon,and the islands of Ile d’Oleron; and ile de Re.

Don’t get the idea that this region only offers beaches though as there are some lovely villages and towns to enjoy. The local, typically French village of Les Mathes is a lovely place (try a gentle 10 minute cycle ride there for your morning bread and the morning markets) and La Rochelle is a must. Cognac, Saintes, Brouage, Fouras and the islands should not be missed either.

The local outdoor markets are full of interest and packed with temptations.

In our lounge you will find a selection of maps and pamphlets to help you decide the places to visit.

How to Get There

Budget airlines fly to La Rochelle, Bordeaux and Bergerac, with hire cars being available from the airports.

For a two week holiday you may want to consider taking your own car. From the port of St Malo the journey is just 250 miles to Les Charmettes - French roads are excellent, well sign-posted and generally less congested than ours.
