Splashing good fun for tiny tots

Following the success of last year’s launch, Keycamp is extending its free swimming lessons for children aged 1 – 5 years.

Now available at seven parcs, the lessons, which are run in conjunction with the Swimming Teachers’ Association (STA), are designed to safely introduce little ones to the water and get them to take their first strokes.

The lessons - which follow the STA’s six-step programme - offer a structured and supportive environment and create a fun and positive experience for babies enjoying the pool for the first time. Lessons will be available at seven French parcs: three in Brittany, one in the Dordogne, one in the Loire Valley and two in Languedoc.

Fancy taking the plunge, then why not consider La Pointe St Gilles in Bénodet, a beautiful parc in Southern Brittany? Located on the coast, it is the perfect choice for baby’s first beach holiday, and as well as the free swimming lessons, offers Mini Fun Station and Tumble Tots sessions. One of Keycamp’s Mini World parcs, it is especially toddler-friendly with facilities such as a children’s pool. There’s also much to occupy mum and dad, with sports like archery, badminton, canoeing and cycle hire available.

To help you travel that little bit lighter, parents are able to hire free baby packs which include a travel cot, high chair, baby bath and potty, while all-terrain buggies and toddler trucks can be hired for just £2/€2 per day. A deal with Tiny Tots Away also means that Keycamp customers can enjoy a 10% discount on everyday essentials, such as nappies and preferred baby foods, which can be ordered and delivered direct to your accommodation.

A seven night break starting on 5 June for a family of two adults and up to four children staying in a Villanova mobile home at La Pointe St Gilles will cost £428, accommodation only. Ferry crossings or fly drive packages are available at a supplement.
