If there’s one thing we all associate with family weekend breaks in France, it’s the simple pleasure of the great outdoors - and it’s true to say that Marie and Denis at Camping de la Ferme des Aulnes in Northern France share the sentiment. On a traditional Picardy farm setting, the small, friendly and convivial 4-star campsite with pool offers lodge-style holiday-homes and enjoys a privileged location close to two stunning bays: the world-renowned sweeping Somme bay and the smaller (more secret!) Authie bay too, both an easy drive from Calais.

Animals hidden in the sand
Cockles, small crabs, sand worms… I love the little heads of children as they dig in the sand of the Bay and discover all the little animals hiding there. It's very concrete, they touch with the tips of their fingers and so they remember. I think it's one of the best gifts you can give them: bring them to the heart of the Bay (with a guide, for greater safety), where the fauna is so rich, and allow them to discover with their own hands, to taste plants, to fill their lungs with iode-scented air, to see far in the distance, far - much farther than we can generally see. All five senses are mobilised and they'll never forget it!
Hiding in the Le Marquenterre wooden observation points
The Le Marquenterre Bird Reserve is a great place to take the kids for a day out. For a start, they can run around in safety as there’s a lot of room:-) Running through the pine needles, the sand, on the grass, under the trees… What my daughter likes the most is being able to get so close to the birds: you can see them really clearly on the water and it makes a really big impression on small children as some birds are just as big as them! And, what’s more, there are observation points: wooden observation points where you can’t be seen enable you to look at the birds from very close up without them realising you’re there (and consequently not disturb them). And, of course, hiding just adds to the fun for the little ones!
