  • Family campsite in leafy parkland at historic Guise in Hauts-de-France
  • Familistère Guise and Castle of Guise within 20 minutes' walk
  • Fishing and canoeing on the River Oise; reading corner; shared kitchen
Mightily pretty landscaped pitches and a prevailing sense of peace are what you can expect at Camping de la Vallée de l’Oise, set in around 10 acres of leafy parkland on the outskirts of historic Guise in Hauts-de-France. The grass pitches and various glamping options are also handily close to the River Oise, where you can fish from the banks or hire canoes for trips downstream. When you feel like a bit of a run around with the kids or friends, indulge in some gentle competition at tennis, ping-pong or table football… but if you’d rather just chill on the tree-shaded site, board games and a reading corner are at your disposal too. A communal kitchen is available in the function room, where you can magic up simple meals and brew a cup of coffee – and of course, the bars and restaurants of Guise are only around 10 minutes’ stroll away. Thanks to the site’s proximity to EuroVelo 3, which runs between Trondheim and Santiago de Compostela in Spain, it’s also a handy overnighter for long-distance cyclists completing their pilgrimage. Secure bike storage is available, while puncture-repair kits are available at reception along with refreshing cold drinks.

Do not stay here unless you don’t value hygiene.

Brooke T. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Powered grass and gravel tent site

Liked: Has potential, large pitches. That is all

Disliked: The big toilet block near to where we camped was completely appalling. All the toilets had brown gunk in them, all the pipes were disconnected and the shower stunk of urine. This block was obviously not in use but there wasn’t a single sign to show this. They had obviously been used despite not being in action.
The pictures of the lake and the pitches were completely untrue to what it’s actually like. There are multiple people living on the campsite in dirty caravans, and who they themselves look incredibly dirty. Not very inviting and definitely not okay for families.
The only working toilet block had one toilet for the whole campsite and two showers which were in poor condition.
The park was completely rusted and covered in thick dirt so unusable.
Really dissapointed with this campsite and would not recommended to anyone who has any sense of hygiene.

Powered grass and gravel caravan site

Liked: ive put 2 star so you will more likely read the review as i would when choosing.
5 is more the real score

this is probably one of the better camp sites youll find around France, ignore other negative views given by people and book on here.
theres also plenty to visit if you have time to enjoy the area especially a day in Laon

Powered grass and gravel caravan site

Liked: Nothing! We didn’t stay.

Disliked: The toilet and shower facilities were mostly out of use. We were shown to one combined toilet and shower, which was inadequate and unsatisfactory. We therefore chose not to stay. This is the worst site we have visited.

From the manager: Sorry but we are always listening to our guests. We will welcome you without worry to prove to you that this is a bad point of view. Have a good day

Clean site all facilities good. Restaurant serving great food and good atmosphere.…

Roy H. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Powered grass and gravel tent site

Liked: Plenty of flat grassed areas. Clean and well maintained utilities with plentiful hot water. Even had a large hall with cooking facilities at one end (microwaves, hot plates, e kettle, sinks) - v. useful if it's raining. At other end of hall were a couple of exercise walkers! plus a small library and table games. Just a 10min walk to centre of a v. attractive town.
Bargain price for a solo tent and a friendly easy check-in.

Disliked: No toilet paper but that was as expected!

From the manager: Thanks...

Powered grass and gravel tent site

Liked: Pitches were great sizes and loved that you could park the car next to the tent.
Facilities were really good, showers were free and lovely and warm, washing up stations were great and toilets were clean.
Indoor area was lovely and lots to do to keep entertained in there, including free freezer to re-freeze ice blocks.

Local attractions

Guise is a pretty town with plenty to see and do. Start your exploration at The Familistère Guise (20 minutes’ walk), built in the mid-19th century by industrialist Jean-Baptiste André Godin as housing for his workforce, and now a gigantic ‘living museum’. Don’t miss the ruined Castle of Guise (15 minutes), where you can have a forage around in underground tunnels and admire views over rooftops to the River Oise from the ramparts. For a moment of quiet contemplation in nature, head for the lovely riverside Jardin de la Presqu’île (25 minutes). To continue with the cultural theme, you may like to visit a couple of the fortified churches of Thiérache; the nearest are red-brick, 14th-century Église Saint-Nicolas in Englancourt (20 minutes’ drive) and Église Saint-Martin, topped by a black-tiled spire in Fontaine-lès-Vervins (25 minutes). If you’d rather do your exploring on foot, have a meander along the banks of the Oise from your pitch, or strike out on paths through woodland and fields in the Parc Naturel Régional de l’Avesnois (half an hour) – and if the kids are needing to run off surplus energy, take them kart racing at Labyrinthe Aventure (50 minutes).
