from 14 reviews Write review

The peaceful family campsite Les Varennes on the French island Ile de Ré is a wonderful place no matter your age. The large outside pool provides the necessary cooling on warm summer days and you can easily walk to the beach. You can rent bikes at the front desk to explore the island. Would you like something more comfortable during your camping holiday? Then rent a mobile home on the campsite.

Campsite Les Varennes can only be reached via the toll bridge across the water. From the bridge, you can already see the beach of Ile de Ré. The island is known for salt extraction, which you can see in towns such as Loix and Ars-en-Ré. The campsite is located close to the picturesque Le-Bois-Plage-en-Ré, where a market with regional products is held every morning.

Camping as luxurious as you want it

The advantage of Campsite Les Varennes is that it isn’t a large campsite, but it is nevertheless fully equipped. There are 56 camping pitches for tents, caravans, and camper vans. The camping pitches are not delimited and have a surface of approximately 95 m2. During low season, you can take an additional car free of charge.

There is also a wide choice of comfortable mobile homes. You can make it as luxurious as you want, for example with 3 bedrooms, a large sitting area, and a covered terrace. You can also choose additional luxury, for example by taking a privilege package for your mobile home, so you can enjoy sun beds and a dishwasher during your camping holiday.

We komen hier al jaren. Het sanitair is nu vernieuwd en dat is prachtig. Heel fijn en behulpzaam personeel en ca 300 mtr van het strand. In het dorp Bois-Plage is iedere dag een overdekte markt en een buiten markt. Overal op het eiland heb je fietspaden, waar je vaak niet met de auto kan komen.

Wat een fantastische camping! Prachtige grote plaatsen met veel schaduw. Een mooi nieuw binnen- en buitenzwembad. Dicht bij zee. Het sanitair verdient een groot compliment. Het is uiterst modern, zeer compleet en wordt continue zorgvuldig schoongehouden. Echt een camping die zijn 4 sterren meer dan waarmaakt!

Mooi gelegen camping vlak bij de zee en een mooi strand. Les Blois Plage is een leuke stad met iedere dag een uitgebreide markt naast de marche. De camping heeft een mooi zwembad met een binnen en een buitenbad. Personeel is vriendelijk en zeer behulpzaam. St Martin ligt op fietsafstand, daar zijn ook de grote supermarkten. Kortom een leuke camping op een mooi eiland, echt een aanrader.

Leuke camping. Mooie kampeerplaatsen, groot grasveld. Sanitair is deels gemoderniseerd, maar alles is schoon. Het camping echtpaar is aardig en behulpzaam. De eigen buitenbar is leuk. Rivier naast de camping, maar dit jaar stond door de droogte het water flink lager dan anders. Toen wij er waren was het rustig.
