About Us

We have lived in France for a few years now and love the French way of life, the slower pace, fresh air and clean living. After spending most of that time working for others, we decided to put our efforts into our own project and here we are, the new owners of camping La Fortinerie, which re-opened in June 2018. Read more about us.
