L’Oree du Bois is a 4 star site, approximately 4 kilometres from spectacular golden beaches, arguably the best beaches in Western France, and easily accessible by car or by bike along forest trails. The nearby beaches, all different in character, are ideal for surfing, windsurfing & sailing. The new swimming pool complex with slides and wave machine, and the bar area extension have been recently upgraded. We have a mixture of 2 and 3 bedroomed cottage style mobile homes at L’Oree du Bois, either with open or semi-covered verandas. The site is in a stunning natural setting – the forest of La Coubre, a French heritage site, which is just over 5 minutes drive away from the Cote Sauvage. The resort of La Palmyre, with lively bars, restaurants, shops, a large childrens adventure playground, glorious beaches and much more, is about 8 minutes drive from the site.. The site runs a childrens club, the “Grizzly Club” 5 mornings a week, for children between the ages of 4 to 10 years old, and the club operates in high season from July to the end of August. There are childrens play areas, trampoline, paddling pool and lots of activities organized during the day, if you wish to take part.
