What campers are saying
Summarized by AI
The campsite scores with its green, natural design and the warm team on site. The shady, spacious pitches are really well received. The commitment to genuine sustainability is also noticeably lived here. Good to know for the trip: Anyone going there should be prepared for slightly older sanitary facilities.

Pros
The pitches are okay, but the sanitary facilities are in need of renovation, being very open, with lots of pests, cobwebs, etc., which isn’t very inviting. Overall, the site appeared well-maintained only at the entrance, while further back it seemed neglected, possibly due to the end of the season? Unfortunately, there is no village nearby. The electrical hookup is far away. Pitch/Rental Accommodation: We had chosen a pitch quite far back on the grassy area, which was very nice, but unfortunately, you can strongly smell the odors from the surrounding oyster beds and there were also mosquitoes.
Cons
Sanitary facilities urgently need updating. Pitch/Rental Accommodation: Modernize the sanitation and electricity.

This cozy, nature-friendly campsite serves as an excellent starting point for various activities on the island. The staff is very friendly, and the facilities are of very good quality. One of the sanitary houses is indeed a bit outdated, but it is technically completely sufficient and always clean! The pitches are spacious, often separated by hedges, with plenty of trees suitable for hammocks, and sometimes with sun sails. In front of the campsite, the free shuttle bus runs around the island and follows the bike path network. If you’re looking for a great, family-friendly, clear, nature-rich, and well-equipped campsite rather than glamping in large modern facilities, this is the perfect place for you.

Pros
Lovely campsite with plenty to do in the area / on the island. The visit to La Rochelle and the nearby fort was also worthwhile. Pitch/Rental accommodation: Nice spacious spot.
Cons
Evening entertainment lasting until after midnight was a bit too much. Pitch/Rental accommodation: The plants could have used some water.

More info about Camping La Brande
Camping La Brande is located just a few metres from the Atlantic Ocean, which at low tide exposes an extensive mudflat with exciting opportunities for discovery. At this campsite in south-west France, a fun pool ensures that children in particular have a great time. Swimmers can swim laps in the partially covered pool and sports entertainers offer attractive programmes such as aqua aerobics.
Family campsite near the beach with children's entertainment
Situated on the island of Oleron in the municipality of Le Château-d'Oléron, Camping La Brande stretches out over flat meadows with lush vegetation and many tall trees. The island is located on the Bay of Biscay and is known for its kilometres of sandy beaches, fertile wetlands and the huge state forest. The holiday village has a total of 139 parcelled out pitches measuring a generous 125 to 200 square metres. All pitches have an electricity connection. A fridge and a private single cabin with shower, toilet and washbasin can be booked on request. The three public sanitary facilities are barrier-free and equipped with family-friendly facilities such as baby baths, changing tables and children's toilets. Motorhome owners dispose of waste water and cassette toilets at special service stations, where fresh water can also be refilled. Camping La Brande impresses with its natural atmosphere, where couples can also feel at home. Two barbecue areas are available for communal barbecues, and the campsite will win over active holidaymakers with its multi-purpose sports fields for basketball, volleyball, tennis, archery and mini golf. The little ones can let off steam in the playground, take part in fun children's picnics or paint and do arts and crafts in the mini club.
Varied hiking routes through natural beauty spots
At Oleron, holiday guests often go on excursions into the wild and romantic landscape. For example, the holiday resort organises German-language bike tours, including to the local oyster farms, whose seafood is famous for its nutty flavour. Right next to Camping La Brande, the sea invites you to take long walks on the mudflats at low tide. Here you can not only collect wonderful mussels, but also observe wading birds such as sandpipers and herons. Those who love surfing will find a paradise with strong winds at Grande Plage on the south-west coast, just 6 kilometres away. The south of the island is also home to a dense forest with magnificent pine and oak trees. Numerous signposted forest paths lead to observation points where birds of prey and other wild animals can often be spotted.
