Camping

Just click on any image to enlarge!

The campsite is situated within the grounds of our ancient farm house. It’s a small site, with just 10 pitches on the main field. The grounds are mainly laid to grass, with lots of mature trees and shrubs offering some privacy as well as shade from the summer sun.

“What a lovely site, have really enjoyed our stay. Will says it is the best site he has ever stayed on!” Cath, Andy, James & Will Pointon.

These ten pitches are arranged around the outside edge of the site, leaving a large clearing in the centre where you can relax, or let your children play safely. Because Le Chant is a fairly small site, you can see what your children are up to, whilst you chill by your tent or caravan. Each one of our spacious pitches has a ‘UK Type’ electric hook-up (6-amp only), and there’s enough room to pitch however you feel comfortable.

“There’s only one thing we don’t like about Le Chant, and that’s having to leave!!” The Original Maynards. Andy, Nic, Lucy & Izzy

Our charming unisex shower block with its exposed beams has oodles of character. Formerly the old holding pen for newborn calves and sheep, it now offers plentiful free hot water for all our camping/caravaning guests. There are two toilets, two showers and three basins, all of which have privacy screens. One of the toilets is a large cubicle with shower and WC, making it suitable for wheelchair users or for families with small children. So there’s no reason not to come to Le Chant d’Oiseau! The toilets are always stocked with toilet roll, and we have fresh cotton towels and soap dispensers for your use. We’ve finished the refurbishments of the shower block, re-tiling throughout and adding an extra basin, cupboards and privacy panels for your comfort! To make it more attractive to those of you who camp in less warmer climes, we’ve also added a heater in there!

New for the 2010 season was our Kamper’s Kitchen (click on the images above). What a popular thing its turned out to be! In 2014, we completely re-vamped the Kamper’s Kitchen to offer even better facilities for you. Here’s a space where those of you with minimal facilities may like to cook indoors! Essentially it’s a fully working kitchen with gas cooker, oven, washing up sinks, with hot water, kettle, microwave and fridges – indoor facilities for outdoors people! This is also where you’ll find the Local Information, the book exchange library and the outdoor toys & games! Just next door, we also added a new covered chemical waste disposal point! We believe it’s a welcome addition to the facilities here at Le Chant, and hope it helps lengthen your camping season too!

We’ve lost count of the number of times we’ve been told “We’re not really ‘campers’, just people that own a tent, so Le Chant is ideal for us!” We can’t think of a better introduction to the outdoor life!

We’re fully disabled friendly here at Le Chant too, including a huge disabled/family shower room in our shower block, so there’s no reason why wheelchair-dependent, or family members with limited mobility can’t enjoy a family holiday in France as well!
