Welcome to Camp Laurent

Escape to the Charente...

Despite the rural nature of most of Poitou-Charentes there is plenty to see and do. The mild, sunny climate is ideal for all the fairs and festivals held throughout the summer season. If you are not close enough to the sea to cool down there are plenty of leisure lakes, with their own sandy beaches, and lovely rivers for boating and swimming fun. There is no shortage of beauty either with fields of sunflowers, vineyards and

meadows full of wild flowers, all languishing under huge sunny skies.

The villages are old and interesting and the architecture is charming.With towns like Cognac, La Rochelle, Saintes, Poitiers, Montmorillon, Confolens to name just a few, you will be spoilt for choice. Each has its own character and offer individual shops in which to browse, indoor markets and, of course, an amazing selection of cafés and restaurants.
