A high-end campsite, at 5 kilometres from the Vendée beaches
Along the road linking Saint Hilaire to Notre Dame de Riez, settles campsite Les Biches, a comfortable 5-star establishment extending over a 10-acres well-maintained pine forest. Relatively close to the ocean, at 5 kilometres from the beaches and the centre of Saint Hilaire, Les Biches attaches particular importance to the comfort of its residents.
It offers spacious shaded or semi-shaded pitches of 120 m², connected to the electricity grid, and the water and sewage system.
But this 5-star campsite in the Vendée also features a wide range of different rental accommodations. From the chalet and the mobile home to the little house, there is an offer for all tastes and all budgets. Besides the traditional comfort of its standard accommodations, the "Prestige" range of les Biches provides several additional features, like a flat-screen TV, a stereo, a dishwasher, a safe, bed linen and towels, WiFi Internet access, garden furniture with a gas barbecue and this formula even includes two hours of free tennis!
Among the facilities and services of this exceptional outdoor establishment, there's a restaurant, which also proposes a take away service, a bar with free WiFi coverage, and a small supermarket where you can also buy beach items and French and international newspapers, to keep abreast of what's going on in the world.
In the heart of the Côte de Lumière
On this 5-star campsite in the Vendée, there are many leisure and sports facilities, like outdoor playgrounds, a mini-golf, table tennis tables, a game room, a multi-sports field, two tennis courts and a fitness room. Sports tournaments and salsa courses are also regularly organized to entertain the guests.
Young and old can also enjoy, and that goes without saying, the beautiful water park of les Biches, including a heated indoor swimming pool, a large outdoor swimming pool, a paddling pool, a large spiral water slide and a toboggan with three tracks and its reception pool. The water park is supervised by a lifeguard and aquagym sessions, but also swimming lessons for children are often organized by a certified instructor.
Synonym to escape, holidays are also the opportunity to go to the beach and breathe in the fresh coastal air. To do so, the best way is to rent a bike at the reception of the campsite, and then use the cycle paths departing from the campsite to reach the beaches, the forest or even the next door marshes.
At the end of day, campers have the opportunity to enjoy the lively evenings organised by the campsite. Karaoke, concerts, dance performances and magic, etc. In short, multi generational shows that appeal to the largest number!
And the hedged farmland of the Vendée
A stay on camping Les Biches is the opportunity to discover the Vendée and its Côte de Lumière, name given to this coastline with reference to the degree of sunshine that it gets, much higher than those of ithe neighbouring regions of the Atlantic Coast...
La Côte de Lumière (Coast of Light), with its dunes, its beaches, its rocky coastline and its large pine forests leaves no one indifferent. Even though there are many beach resorts along the ocean, nature is also very present, and a walking, cycling or horse riding trip is the best way to discover all the charms and beauties of this nature.
Near Sion sur l'Océan, a seaside neighbourhood of Saint Hilaire de Riez, there are many coves, caves and craggy rocks to discover. The salt marshes that are spread over hundreds of acres around Saint Hilaire and Saint Gilles Croix de Vie will teach you more about the process of harvesting the salt. Finally, from the port of Saint Hilaire you can take a shuttle ferry to go to the famous island of Yeu, one of the fifteen islands of Ponant and probably one of the most beautiful islands in France.
Among the other attractions of Vendée, why not go for a boat ride in the Marais Poitevin, discover the hedged farmland of the Vendée, go play at the casino of Saint Gilles Croix de Vie, play golf in Saint Jean de Mont, or even go to the Puy du Fou, one of the largest theme parks in France?
