Cool accommodation for family holidays in France

If you are looking for cool accommodation to wow your kids, we really like these quirky ideas from La Flèche and Glisten Camping.

A night at the zoo in La Flèche

La Flèche Zoo, which is located in the Loir Valley between Le Mans, Angers and Tours, has launched three new, super-stylish safari-style lodges for night time stays at the zoo.

The new lodges overlook the Madagascan lemurs, and are added to four existing lodges which allow visitors to enjoy the company from arctic wolves, white tigers or leaping lemurs.

Each lodge has oversized windows that look out onto the enclosures and so give visitors amazing views of the nocturnal habits of these amazing animals.

Accommodation includes a master suite, children’s bunk room, bathroom and outdoor shower and a Pergola for al fresco dining.

One night half board start from £110pp based on 4 sharing, including a 2-day zoo pass. Go to www.safari-lodge.fr to book.

Glisten Camping is opening in April Set to give France a new offering in luxe camping.

The company is offering amazing dome tents on handpicked campsites – the first site consists of six stylish geodomes nestled in the Basque countryside.

Glisten offers contemporary glamping alternatives for families who would rather curl up in a sleeping pod; swing in a hanging chair or whizz-up something magnificent on their own all-weather kitchen/dining area complete Plancha grill.
