Weekend Trip to Le Château de Monfréville

We did a two week roadtrip in the west of France where we stayed in 5 different camping places. This one was by far the most jaw dropping! We were welcomed warmly by Perrine and Thibault. We even got to choose our emplacement. The entire domain is just wonderful. Chickens, a horse and a donkey and a cute dog, a beautiful castle and amazingly organized by Perrine and Thibault. We just stayed for one night and wished we could stay longer. We are definitely recommending this hidden gem and will return!

7 nights at Le Château de Monfréville

This campsite went straight to the top of the list of all the campsites, we have been to. We’re travelling with three kids and a big Nordisk tent, that takes up a lot of space, but this place has enough space for everyone! The surroundings are beautiful with the old castle as the “service building,” the swimmingpool offers a refreshing swim for little ones and all others, the chickens, the horse, and the donkey give it all a farmer’s vibe, and the couple running it all, Perrine and Thibault along with their kids, are just extremely down to earth, welcoming, warm, and helpful folks. We stayed for a week and already had our next stay planned, but otherwise we would’ve prolonged our stay. We’re definitely returning as soon as possible!
