Animations at Pech Charmant in July and August

During peak season (the second half of July and first three weeks of August, depending on the year), children and teenagers can enjoy a daily programme of varied activities supervised by a Dutch-speaking team.

Every morning, children are invited to visit the animals and help feed them (activity that also contributes to the reduction of organic waste).

Except on Saturdays, two activities are offered each day (one in the morning and one in the afternoon), some of which require registration.

Ping-pong, football or petanque tournaments, volleyball matches in the swimming pool, mini disco in the water or at the night bar, craft activities in the snack bar tent in case of rain…

The activities proposed by our activity leaders are varied and adapted to all ages!

Every Monday in the summer, the campsite hosts a Buffalo Family Circus, which offers a circus school before the performance, during which the children learn to do acrobatics and numbers on the big top ring before taking part in the show that follows!
In the evening, there is a concert in the night bar with a different band every week!

Every Tuesday evening in July and August, during the Perigordian menu, the children who have registered are taken care of by the activity leaders for a particular activity (dinner with each other in the snack bar, games and drawings, showing of a film…)

One evening a week, a mini disco is organised for them at the night bar from 7pm to 9pm.

The programme is presented to you every Sunday during the welcome drink that we organise at the snack bar and which is followed by a sports activity proposed to all, young and old, by the animation team (pétanque, table tennis).
