Where do you pitch up for a holiday that mixes pine-scented calm with sea air? Flower Camping Monplaisir, a 4-star campsite on 4 hectares in the state forest of Saint-Trojan-les-Bains, at the southern end of Île d'Oléron. The village centre is 700 m away, and the campsite carries the Famille Plus and Clef Verte labels, so families and nature lovers feel at home.
What will you sleep in? Mostly in new Premium wooden mobile homes: 30 m² with two bedrooms, or 34 m² with three bedrooms for up to six people. They come air-conditioned, with a semi-covered terrace, a dishwasher, and sheets and towels included, and there is an adapted version for guests with reduced mobility. Prefer your own canvas? Bare and comfort pitches are on offer too.
And what about the kids? The heated outdoor pool has its own paddling area, the multisport court and playground with an inflatable structure are close at hand, and in July and August the free kids' club for ages 4 to 12 fills the days with treasure hunts, face painting and circus workshops. Teens have their own club, and parents can join aquagym, yoga or a game of pétanque.
Beyond the gate, Oléron does the rest: forest cycle lanes, the Petite Plage a 20-minute walk away, and the P'tit Train de Saint-Trojan rolling through pines and dunes to the wild beaches of Gatseau and Maumusson. Add a bar-restaurant, a small shop and bike hire on site, and you have a holiday that practically runs itself.

Click to enlargeThe surroundings
Saint-Trojan-les-Bains sits at the southern end of Île d'Oléron, just behind the bridge, and is the one village on the island where the road ends. Around 1,100 people live here, so the scenery is pine forest, dunes, a protected marsh and sandy beaches, plus an oyster-fishing village to explore. The land is low and coastal, ideal for cycling. Across the water you will find Marennes, La Tremblade and Rochefort (about 39 km by road), with the seaside resort of Royan further along the coast.

Tip from our team
We recommend planning your swimming days from mid-May to mid-September, when the heated pool and its paddling area are open daily from 10:00-19:00. Pool entry is by wristband, and baggy swim shorts are not permitted, so pack proper tighter fit swimming trunks. Booking for July or August? We recommend signing the children up at reception the day before for the free kids' club, which runs Monday to Friday from 10:00-12:00 and 15:00-17:00. Bring your bikes or hire some on site: the forest cycle lanes are a lovely way to reach the village and the Petite Plage. Hop on the P'tit Train to discover the wild beaches of Gatseau and Maumusson. Note that the bar-restaurant rests on Tuesdays, while bread is available from 08:30 on the other days. Arriving late? Call reception before 17:00 and you will receive your key or badge instructions, with the formalities waiting until the next morning. Travelling with a large camper? Ask us before booking so we can find the right pitch. Dogs and cats are welcome at €4 per animal per day, up to two per pitch. Finally, set aside a day for the Corderie Royale in Rochefort (35 km) and the Zoo de La Palmyre (36 km).

We love it“Our stay is coming to an end and we are delighted to have discovered this campsite. It is small and family-oriented: we love that! The children play there freely, with complete confidence. The tents have plenty of space and are in the heart of the campsite, which certainly makes the atmosphere more bohemian. The mobile homes are very well equipped (the air conditioning and the dishwasher are very appreciated). The campsite is generally very shaded since it is on the edge of the forest. It is very well located, close to the beaches and the port of Saint-Trojan. The pool is really adapted to the needs of the campsite. The Wi-Fi network is temperamental and Free doesn't get reception: perfect, that's what a real vacation is! We will be back, for sure!”
cecil881- Beautiful experience, Thank you
“A great campsite with diverse activities for everyone with a swimming pool. The activity leaders are very nice. With pitches that are more or less in the sun and flat. A small flaw regarding the music and the concerts because the music is from a few generations ago. Campsite for late risers as well as for early risers. Thank you very much for this experience.☺️ Jade, 13 years old ✌️”

We recently stayed here and, while there were some positives, there are a few areas that could really be improved.“We recently stayed here and, while there were some positives, there are a few areas that could really be improved. The toilet facilities didn’t seem adequate for the number of guests. Toilet paper regularly ran out, and there wasn’t a sink with soap to wash your hands after using the toilets. Another toilet block would make a big difference. The pitch layout could also be clearer. a larger map would help, as people often seemed unsure where their pitch started and ended, with some regularly walking through other campers’ spaces. We were next to the play area, and children frequently ran through our pitch rather than around it. Later in our stay, a large group of teenagers arrived who were quite noisy late into the night, making it difficult to get to sleep. A reminder about quiet hours and limiting use of the play area later in the evening would help everyone enjoy the campsite. Overall, it just wasn’t the peaceful camping experience we were hoping for.”
