Animal fun on the farm
Meet our animals at Camping La Charvière. Peace, nature, and fun for little explorers. At Camping La Charvière, many animals live in the heart of nature. Follow the peaceful walking path together past the animal enclosures, through the grass and the meadows. Take your time, listen carefully… because everywhere you go, you’ll hear animals.
Children can see the animals up close, collect eggs, or simply walk barefoot through the grass. Meanwhile, parents can relax with a cup of coffee by their tent or camper, or on our cozy terrace overlooking the animals and meadows.
Chickens, ducks, and geese
First of all, in the morning you’ll wake up to the cheerful clucking of the chickens and the lively quacking of ducks and geese.
While the morning dew still rests on the grass and the sun slowly rises above the fields, the farm awakens step by step. In the distance, you can hear the gentle lowing of the cows and the rustling of straw in the barn.
Ida the pig
Meet Ida the pig! You’ll hear her coming with her soft and contented grunting. As soon as the campsite guests have finished their meals, she eagerly waits by the fence, hoping for a few tasty vegetable or fruit leftovers.
With her funny snout and friendly character, Ida is a real favourite among the children and, as a result, an unforgettable part of farm life at the campsite for many guests.
The donkeys
Our donkeys always make themselves heard right away: with their characteristic braying, they greet each other as well as our guests. In the meadow, you’ll find a sweet miniature donkey and a friendly mare who is currently expecting a foal.
They love coming over to see who is walking by the fence and enjoy all the attention — a cheerful and lively part of the farm that you simply can’t miss!
Horses and ponies
Our 4 horses and 6 ponies are true cuddle champions! They can hardly wait for their favourite moments of the day: being brushed, cuddled, and going on adventures together during lovely walks through the beautiful surroundings.
In addition, children can help with feeding them, how wonderful is it to get to know these gentle four-legged friends up close? A true farm experience you will never forget!
Sheep and goats
During your walk among the animals, you will also come across our special miniature sheep: the Soay and Ouessant. Small in size but big in charm, they always attract curious attention!
In addition, children can fully interact and play with the goats, which happily climb and roam around the play equipment. A place where animals and fun go hand in hand!
Small animals: guinea pigs, rabbits, tortoises, and fish
At the smaller animal enclosures, there is also plenty to discover. Here you will find rabbits, guinea pigs, tortoises, and fish, each with their own special place on the farm.
Children are welcome to gently cuddle the guinea pigs and rabbits — a lovely, soft, and cosy moment that always brings big smiles.
Farm cats
You might even be greeted by one of our curious farm cats, who like to drop by your safari tent for a friendly cuddle. At our farm campsite, you’ll never feel alone — here you are welcomed every day by enthusiastic four-legged friends!
Simply enjoy and learn
Our animals have plenty of space: 2.5 hectares dedicated specifically to them, within our 5-hectare natural estate. Lots of grass, fresh air, and above all, peace. Exactly as animals like it.
Children are welcome to watch, learn, and experience life on the farm. During the cuddle sessions, they can help feed, groom, and cuddle the animals. Soon, there will also be fun arrangements available, such as pony walks and animal cuddle moments.
Whether you’re walking together, listening to the sounds of nature, or simply enjoying the outdoors: at La Charvière it’s all about discovery, relaxation, and enjoying time together. A place where children can play, animals live peacefully, and everyone can unwind. And that is pure enjoyment! Animal fun at La Charvière.
