Discover amazing campsites in France

Seaside camping all over France
– which will you choose?

There are many options for a camping holiday in France, so it’s worth doing some research before you go. Do you want the guaranteed warm weather of the South of France, or would you prefer to travel a shorter distance from the UK to a north of France campsite? Are you interested in the food scene in Provence, or do you want to visit the vineyards of the Rhône Valley?

If you’re looking for a seaside campsite, our east of France camping locations are near beautiful beaches, while camping on the Atlantic offers wild, windswept beaches perfect for surfing. Our campsites on the west coast of France are a favourite destination for lovers of stunning scenery combined with a beachside location.

Countryside camping for nature lovers

Countryside camping is a popular choice for all ages because it offers an opportunity to get away from it all and enjoy the beauty of nature. If you love the great outdoors, then why not take a holiday at a mountain campsite and spend your days hiking and exploring? Many Sunêlia campsites are located near national parks, giving you plenty to discover.

Peace and quiet are the order of the day as you wander along lush forest trails, dip your toes in mountain streams and stop to picnic by a lake. From Zeeland in the Netherlands to the French Pyrenees, we offer a selection of 4-star and 5-star campsites throughout Europe.

Where else to camp in Europe?

Family-friendly camping in Spain and Italy

Camping is a great way to see more of Europe. Why not plan a camping road trip and combine a stay at a campsite in Spain with a visit to France? Or travel from France to a campsite on the world famous Italian Riviera and watch the cruise ships sail by? The options are endless! You can stay at a Sunêlia campsite for as long or as little time as you wish.

Camping is ideal for families who love the water and want to spend time at the campsite swimming pool. Our Spanish and Italian campsites have several waterparks that will keep the kids busy all day. After using all that energy, dinner at the campsite restaurant is the perfect way to end the day.

Glamping in the Netherlands

A Netherlands campsite is ideal if you and your family love cycling. Renting a bike to explore the miles of flat cycle paths is a must if you camp in Holland. Our campsite is designed to offer you a quality holiday if you love to glamp. Spacious mobile homes with all the mod cons and a private terrace make for the perfect camping trip.
If you want to forget the car on your Netherlands camping holiday, you’ll be pleased to hear our luxury campsite has direct access to the beach. Just grab the buckets and spades and towels and you’ll be basking on the sand in no time. When you return, you can relax on your terrace and enjoy your private mobile home.

Camp your way through Europe

Discover the history and sights of Europe

From visiting historic French castles to trips to a capital city such as Paris or Madrid, staying at a campsite in Europe gives you complete flexibility. You can stay at a Sunêlia luxury campsite for as long as you wish before heading off to a UNESCO world heritage site, a secret beach or a quaint inland town.

When you’re seeking peace and quiet, head for a countryside campsite and spend time outdoors. You’ll meet lots of new people from all nationalities when you stay at a Sunêlia holiday spot, which is great for you and the kids. Many of our campsites offer a kids’ club, where your little ones can make new friends while you go sight-seeing.

Lakeside campsites in beautiful settings

Lakeside camping is the perfect way to combine the fun of camping with water sports. From gentle strolls around the lake to canoeing or stand-up paddle boarding, you’ll find lots to keep you busy at a lakeside campsite. Have you ever tried wild swimming? Let yourself go and enjoy the freedom of a dip in a lake. And when you want to relax, the awe inspiring views will take your breath away.

Choose a campsite with direct access to the lake and go fishing, paddling or just enjoy a refreshing dip in the cool water. You also have the campsite swimming pool and facilities to keep everyone entertained. What’s on your outdoor activity bucket list? Make the most of the water and rent a boat on your lakeside camping trip to try out your sailing skills.

Camping with children

Are you searching for family-friendly campsites?

The beauty of a countryside or beach camping holiday is that they keep kids of all ages happy, whether you’ve got teens or toddlers. Covered pools keep the sun off the younger members of the family. Teenagers can make use of the sports facilities for a game of basketball or football.

A luxury mobile home offers camping close to nature with all the amenities of home (hot water, Wi-Fi, kitchen facilities). It’s easy to prepare family meals or barbecue to suit your needs. You won’t have to worry about restaurant schedules, which makes camping with young children much easier. Remember to make a list of all the essentials before you set out, so you have everything you need.

Is glamping suitable for children?

Absolutely! While some families prefer to pitch a tent or stay in a motorhome (which you can do at all Sunêlia campsites), others prefer the comfort of the glamping experience. The great thing about glamping in France or Europe, is that you get all the facilities of a luxury mobile home while benefiting from the experience of being near nature.

Kids will love choosing their own room, setting out their toys and playing on the terrace before a few hours’ fun at the campsite waterpark. The campsite heated pools are great for babies and toddlers. The kids’ club will keep the children entertained while mum and dad take a well-earned break at the campsite spa.

More tips on deciding
which campsite to book

Why choose countryside camping?

Europe is full of amazing scenery and 4-star or 5-star camping is your chance to experience it first-hand. Where else can you drive from one country to another and stop off where you please? Discover waterfalls, wildlife and the magnificent landscapes of Europe as you roam. Countryside camping at a campsite for nature lovers could be just what you need to get away from it all and enjoy some family time.

You’ll find some of the best countryside camping locations in France, Spain and Italy – all known for their stunning landscapes and natural beauty. Staying at a campsite is ideal for families with young children or people who want somewhere peaceful to relax after exploring all day long!

Are you a beach camping fan?

Camping next to the beach gives you wide-open spaces and the chance to take walks by the sea or sunbathe and swim. Choose a campsite in the north of France near the English Channel if you enjoy coastal walks and exploring rocky coves. Camping in northern France also means you won´t have far to drive from the Channel Tunnel.
Alternatively, the beaches near our campsites in the South of France are right by the warm waters of the Mediterranean Sea and have golden sands, beachside restaurants and will give you the chance to try out a range of water sports. You can go snorkelling, sailing or windsurfing all along the Mediterranean coastline, from Italy through France and down to Spain.

There are so many different types of campsites in Europe. Some are located close to major tourist attractions, while others are deep in the heart of rural France or Spain.

If you're looking for a holiday that suits all tastes, we welcome you to Sunêlia.
