What Clients Say
testimonials
OMG What legends! All I can say is stay here. Beautiful woodland site, clean well presented facilities and the piece de resistance “Henry”. This man actually went and bought Gluten free beer for me when he realised I was “special” 🤣. Such a warm welcome genuinely chilled person. We spent two nights here on our travels back north and would have happily spent far longer. Large level pitches that feel private whilst being close to facilities. Pool (although not open whilst we were there) looks great! Lots of entertainment options from table tennis, table football, air hockey near the bar and play area for kids to play without needing to be between pitches. The woodland walks are great and not far to walk into the local town.
Bar with pool table and darts give a great area to relax in and brings people together.
Washing machine, tumble dryer, great showers (proper tap without annoying 5 second shut off.). Peaceful site with the sounds of birds and nature all around.
This isn’t your multi pitch carpark like many campsites. It genuinely feels like somewhere loved by the owners and definitely by us.
An escape I definitely recommend.
We will be back!!
“Me, my wife and my 14 year old daughter had an amazing stay at this little gem of a site. Super friendly owners who could not be more helpful. The site has everything you need for a relaxing break. We were only stopping for 4 nights but could have quite easily cancelled our next booking to stay longer. The swimming pool was perfect, the bar was great, the pizza’s fab, the pitches were huge and could easily have got 2 camper vans and awnings in them with space to spare but it was nice to just spread out in your own area. Fresh bread and pastries delivered to site 6 days a week, local boulangerie and shop in walking distance along with other services we didn’t need but knew were available if needed was most welcome.
We cannot wait to be able to get back next year with the rest of the family and spend even longer. Just don’t go here if you are expecting a Haven/Butlins/Centre Parcs type experience because it’s just a chillout, family friendly, laid back experience where they are not trying to suck the cash out of you at every opportunity. In summary a very honest campsite, that is not over commercialised, big on getting the basics right and perfect for the majority of people’s needs.”
Our favourite site by far
We love this site !! Spent 2 weeks there last year and have just returned home after a lovely week here this year. The campsite is brilliant, massive pitches, a lovely pool where the kids spend most of the day having fun. Toilet and showers are immaculate all the time and so nice to have showers you can just turn on without having to press a button every few seconds. Delicious homemade wood fired pizzas available two evenings a week and the best frites !! But what makes the site amazing is the owners and their daughters who not only work extremely hard but from the moment you arrive treat everyone like friends and family. If you are looking for a relaxed family friendly campsite then you need to visit Camping du Bois Saint Hilaire you won’t be disappointed in fact you won’t want to leave !!!
