Sharing our values
Les Castels
La Forge de Sainte-Marie is a member of the Les Castels chain which numbers 37 campsites in France.
We share common values such as the preservation of our patrimony.
Les Castels began in 1959 when Georges Pilliet founded the “Les Castels” association with the goal of encouraging owners of chateaux and manors to open up their properties to campers in order to promote, maintain, preserve and share an endangered heritage. He thus created the first outdoor hotel chain whose main values were the setting, courtesy, comfort and tranquillity.
When staying at a Les Castels site, you’re not in an ordinary place – you’re invited by an owner. Veritable “guest campgrounds,” the Les Castels sites have preserved the art of entertaining, as each owner is intent on offering you a familial and warm reception. Each Castel's specific ambiance gives it its soul, which will envelop you throughout your stay. This soul is also based on mutual respect between the campers and the properties’ staff members.
It’s a shared spirit that makes it possible to showcase beauty and serenity at our campgrounds.
