So what makes families come back? The water, of course. A 3800m² aquatic complex that really delivers. And then the freedom. Kids race to Club Kids (5-7) and Club Juniors (8-12) all season long, teens take over in high summer, while you finally finish that coffee.
Perfect for families with toddlers to teens – why? Toddlers adore the heated 180m² paddling pool under a veranda, juniors live for the slides and inflatables, and teens love the multisport, the beach surf and evening shows. Want action?

Tip from our team
From our Campsite Specialist who knows Domaine de l'Orée inside out: Book a Premium cottage on the forest edge for extra quiet and bigger deck. Pitches with private sanitary are gold for young families – own shower, toilet, kitchenette. Arrive early for poolside sunbeds in July-August, they go fast around 10am. Cycle to Sauveterre before 11am when wind is gentle for little surfers. Grocery shop stocks fresh bread daily but sell-outs happen – pre-order evening before. Kids clubs run Monday-Friday, sign up Sunday evening at reception. Try evening takeaway moules-frites on Thursdays. Bring swim shorts plus tight swim briefs – French pools enforce briefs. Use the back forest gate for dog walks and morning jogs.
