Ferme de la Hêtraie, Countryside campsite in Bec-de-Mortagne, France.
Ferme de la Hêtraie is a campground with 111 individual pitches spread across about 5.5 hectares, with hedgerows dividing the spaces and additional chalets and mobile homes available for guests. The site offers multiple accommodation options arranged throughout the property.
The property originated as a working farm with a farmhouse dating to the early 1800s, built in Norman tradition with a flint facade and brick window frames. These historic structures form the architectural foundation of the current site.
The property was named after an old beech tree and has been run by the same family through multiple generations as they gradually shifted from farming to hospitality. Visitors experience a place where rural heritage and modern leisure coexist in daily use.
The campground is situated in countryside with good pathways between the pitches and is straightforward to navigate from most entry points. It helps to check the seasonal schedule before visiting since operations vary throughout the year.
The grounds feature repurposed historic buildings such as a former laundry converted into a fish pond. An old chicken coop now contains a traditional bread oven that reflects the hands-on heritage of the site.
