Have you checked in campsite search on here? You can enter your requirements and see what comes up. Then read the reviews on any that take your fancy.

6 hours from Calais and you could get to the Loire valley. Weather is generally a bit better. Lots of busy campsites and plenty to do, but not too many lakes and rivers (especially if it's swimming/ canoeing your looking for).

You might get to Lake Annecy at a push.

6 hours from Calais would get you to northern Burgundy. However, a shorter journey (3 - 4 hours)would get you to Troyes. Lac D'Orient isn't far. It's a great site across the road from a lake beach with swimming, pedaloes, ices etc. Site has pool, shop and really helpful staff. Lot to see in the area too. See reviews on here.

Freedom is a light caravan and an open road.

If the Loire does appeal - and there are definitely campsites offering canoeing etc - think Camping les Saules is one - might be worth a look at Camping Lac De Varennes near Tours. They have a lake with beach, fishing, entertainment etc.
There is loads to do in the area - and obviously lots of culture and wine if you fancy a break from the sport!

Steve , There are overnight sites all the way down that road towards Marseillan - perhaps Langres and Tain l'Hermitage might suit, but the site guides will list lots more. Take care.

Beaulieu-sur-Dordogne is a good shout for a family
