  • Small, family-friendly site in the Aube village of Soulaines-Dhuys
  • A 20-minute drive from Nigoland and Champagne house tours
  • Swimming pool and snack bar on site; public park next door
It’s Champagne all round for guests at Camping La Croix Badeau… the Champagne-Ardenne region, that is – surrounds that are stacked with splendid attractions. If you’ve got a special occasion to celebrate (a birthday, an engagement, a Wednesday…) there are indeed numerous wineries within a 20-minute drive where you can raise a toast with a glass of the sparkling stuff. Family hols demanding that you stay sober (at least until sundown)? A similar length of drive can get you to the outdoorsy activities of the Forêt de l’Orient Regional Natural Park, or the excellent Nigoland theme park. Getting to all these (and any other destination you may be planning) is straightforward, for the site is in a nifty setting a few minutes’ drive from the D960 main road – handily close but just far enough away to keep guests well away from any road noise. Also handily close is the village of Soulaines-Dhuys, a five-minute stroll away for supplies to cook up on your barbecue back at base. If there are times when you can’t face such an expedition, settle in on site with something from the snack bar instead. With meals so easily sorted, that leaves more time for chilling out on site, taking dips in the open-air swimming pool, supervising the small sorts as they scamper around the little playground or wandering next door to the public park, where there’s a larger playground and spaces for games of tennis, football and pétanque.

Liked: Always a great warm welcome from the owners. We stayed here last year & enjoyed it so much we returned this year 2024, as part of our 3 month tour of France. Good size pitches & facilities on site - We certainly recommend 😄

Powered grass and gravel campsite

Liked: This was a last minute booking and the owners were very friendly and accommodating. The pool is an added bonus which our teenagers loved. Pitches are segregated and private and you can choose wherever you'd like to camp. Good, tasty pizzas made to order.
Very clean site with good showers and toilets.
As we were catching the return ferry late, the owner kindly let us extend our checkout for an extra €10.
The local village shop is aa 5 minute walk and sells lively fresh bread and cheeses.

Disliked: Nothing, although its worth mentioning that the site may be suitable for older guests. We were the only family with teenagers.

Powered grass and gravel campsite

Liked: What a lovely campsite this is! The pitches are spacious and are all divided with hedges for privacy.
The pool is lovely and well maintained. The toilet and shower block were very clean.
There is a lovely park and playground accessible from the campsite which my 2 daughters loved!
The owners are very nice and friendly!
I would highly recommend this little gem of a campsite!

Disliked: The only downside was that we were only stopping over for one night on our route back up to Calais. We would have happily stayed there for longer if we had the time!

Liked: This site was a great find. Perfect for a stop over travelling through france. We found the pool to he clean and refreshing, the facilities also very clean and spacious. The site was very tidy and the location is very quiet and peaceful. There is also direct access to the local play area for the kids. We enjoyed it here so much we wish we'd had time to stay atleast another day or 2!

Local attractions

Fancy fuelling up on fresh air? Take a foray to the Forêt de l’Orient Regional Natural Park (20 minutes’ drive) for woodland walks and lake activities – fishing, waterskiing and birdwatching are all popular picks. For more aquatic antics, head to Lac du Der (25 minutes) for canoeing, sailing, waterside horse rides and beaches to swim from. Many famed historic celebs have passed this way over the centuries – learn a little about them by spending time at the Napoleon Museum in Brienne-le-Château (20 minutes), the Mémorial Charles De Gaulle (25 minutes) and Château de Cirey (25 minutes), one-time hangout of the writer Voltaire, and the place that inspired many of his bestsellers. A sure hit for a nipper-pleasing day out is Nigoland theme park (20 minutes), one of the country’s most popular parks with shows and a range of rides both extreme and gentle. Got a bit of grownup time? Take a trip to Colombé-la-Fosse (20 minutes) to raise a glass or few at one of the Champagne houses dotted around the village.
