Where family escapes meet serenity

 (6-minute read)

Holidays in France have always been a favourite for families seeking culture and relaxation, but in the heart of Southern France, there’s a gem that takes family escapes to a whole new level. From the allure of slow tourism to activities designed to delight every member of your family, Country Kids is where unforgettable memories take root. It’s a magical place where life slows down. Here, each moment feels purposeful.

Make yourself a cup of tea, and sit back. You’re about to discover a place where you’re greeted with gentle birdsong each morning. A place where holidays in France gift you with peace and serenity in the serene beauty of the Occitanie countryside, and the laughter of your kids echoes across hills and meadows.

Why southern France is perfect for family escapes

If you wish to take an unplugged vacation that helps you disconnect from work and reconnect with nature and family, you’ll find our little corner of France to be perfect. With more than 30 acres of our own grounds, and lavender fields and vineyards that stretch to the horizon, you’ll soon discover the breathtaking difference between city life and country life.

Beyond our gated, vehicle-free community, the pure charm of southern France is around every corner. This isn’t just a vacation destination, it’s a chance to experience time differently. As the rigours of your daily life dissipate, family bonding happens naturally over leisurely breakfasts on a private terrace, or while wandering through the cobbled streets of picture-perfect market towns and villages.

The allure of slow tourism

In a world driven by schedules and screens, slow tourism is a breath of fresh air. It’s about embracing moments, not itineraries. Holidays in France are perfectly suited to this philosophy, especially in Southern France. The focus here is on well-being, mindfulness, and soaking in the natural beauty that surrounds you. At Country Kids, every detail is designed to help you unplug and reconnect – with yourself, your family, and nature.

In our expanse of idyllic rural France, your kids can roam freely, safely, and happily. They’ll be able to explore the world around them, and shaded areas provide perfect spots for relaxing picnics in the clean, fresh air.

Country Kids: A green escape for families

We have plenty of activities and play areas for kids, though the ultimate playground is the countryside. Out onsite petting farm offers opportunities for hands-on experiences with animals that have become beloved family members.

If you seek tranquillity, holidays in France allow you to unlock the benefits of forest bathing. Take a mindful walk amongst whispering trees and feel nature’s soothing qualities as your mind recharges.

Our eco-friendly commitment

Sustainability is at the heart of Country Kids. From eco-conscious practices to thoughtful choices that reduce our carbon footprint, the resort embodies the principles of green tourism. It’s a place where multi-generational families can create lasting memories while helping to preserve the wonders of our planet for future generations.

Activities that create unforgettable family memories

While holidays in France can deliver serenity and relaxation, this doesn’t mean lazing in the sun every day. As the saying goes, a change is as good as a rest, and we have plenty of activities to keep children amused and parents entertained.

From nature walks and hiking trails, to cycling, canoeing, pony trekking, picnics and swimming, there is always something to do at Country Kids. Venture a few miles from our resort, and you’ll find a bounty of historical landmarks, village markets, and more to explore.

While the kids are entertained, parents can enjoy yoga, spa treatments, or even a peaceful moment with a book. With no light pollution, evenings bring stargazing opportunities, which are always best enjoyed with a glass of local wine! (Occitanie is the perfect holiday destination for children with wine-loving parents.)

Well-being at the heart of your holiday

Holidays in France are a chance to feel your best, inside and out, and while active play and exploration is the go-to activity for children, we ensure the adults are generously catered for, too – there’s space for yoga, meditation, or a serene jog through the countryside. Perfect to get your mental health back on track.

Of course, food is likely to be high on your agenda during a family holiday. You won’t be disappointed here. Occitanie has a tradition of delivering on food. Our all-inclusive packages ensure your family’s every need is met with a touch of Southern French culinary magic, though we suspect you’ll also want to venture to nearby restaurants to experience all the vibrant flavours our region has to offer.
