Review of the campsite :

The camping owners are very friendly. The camping itself is small, which usually means quiet and the sanitairies are very clean. There is a river nearby, 10 minutes walking distance. On the camping you can buy delicious bread and local products like very good icecream. Nearby villages Les Vans and Naves are worth exploring. There is a nice "Auberge" directly next to the camping with good food.

Accommodation review : Nature Package

The friendly owners of the camping, the possibility to buy delicious local products like wine, beer, ice cream. The location. Also hygiene of the toilets, showers, dishwashing sinks. We also enjoyed the weekly barbecue night.

The cars are parked directly next to or in front of the the tents, we're used to a bit larger campspaces.

Review of the campsite :

We had a great stay for 2 weeks with nothing to complain about. Jean and Cecile are very hospitable.

English translatings on signs could be better, but the small mistakes just make me smile 😃

Accommodation review : Nature Package

Spacious camp sites with enough shadow. Incredibly clean facilities. Great hospitality, very good price. Attention for the environment. Very good drinking water.

Iris V. Posted 14/08/2024 Stay : 21/07/2024 - 04/08/2024
Review of the campsite :

We had a wonderful time at La Chataigneraie. It's a great location for exploring nature, culture and lots of yummy local foods! Cecile and Jean are the most friendly people who made us feel welcome everyday. Also the swimming at the riverside was a great idyllic place to visit each day to cool off, about ten minutes walking distance. The wednesday bbq was a nice touch for meeting people on the campsite. Tip for vegetarians: there's a local supermarket near Les Vans where they also sell very good vegetarian food: Aux Fermes Des Rayols. And try the ravioli from à l'Aube or pizza from Chez Alex!

There's quite some noise for example from camping neighbours (of course), the cicades and the road nearby. That's not something to fix, but good to be aware of. Also, the weather was super hot! Again not something you can control, but definitely wort to keep in mind when booking your stay.

Accommodation review : Tipi

Wonderful and very complete tipi! Everything we needed was provided. Our family of four had a great time sleeping here. The beds were very comfortable. We could close the super dark tent fabric in the 'bedrooms' so even our 'early waking' boys would sleep a bit longer :)

Review of the campsite :

Peaceful camping with beautifully shaded spots, surrounded by the trees. 10 minute walk to the river where you can bathe and hike. Sanitary was absolutely spotless! Very friendly owners. We would definitely recommend this campsite and will be back in the future.

Review of the campsite :

Bedankt Jean & Cecile! Wij hebben niets aan te merken, alles was super aangenaam! Van de vele bomen waardoor er genoeg schaduw was tot het onderhoud van de toiletten. Je voelde dat de eigenaars toegankelijk waren en ze de camping met hart en ziel beheren. De biologische en locale producten, alsook het heerlijke artisanale ijs, maakte ons verblijf heerlijk. Als je naar een kleinschalige en geen commerciële camping wilt gaan, raden wij deze plek ten zeerste aan! Wij komen zeker terug :-). Ps: Jean bouwt alle (!) cabannes en huisjes van de camping zelf! ??

Accommodation review : Nature Package

Een grote plek met veel schaduw en groen

Review of the campsite :

3eme année où je viens dans ce camping. endroit calme,détente assurée. Les gérants Jean et Cécile sont très chaleureux. La soirée braséro,les cigales,l'ombre sous les châtaigniers,la rivière proche font de ce lieu un endroit où l'on aime se reposer. Coup de coeur assuré

Accommodation review : Lodges

Le lodge est spacieux,la terrasse est grande et la nuit venu on peut observer les étoiles installé tranquillement dans le transat

Review of the campsite :

Petit camping, en toute simplicité avec le confort nécessaire. L’accueil, l’entretien, la musique au sanitaires le matin, les lumières dans les allées, les emplacements tous aussi agréables les uns que les autres, le soin apporté au détails, le calme. En bref nous avons passé un super séjour. Je recommande vivement pour les amoureux de la nature et de la tranquillité.

Peut être le nombre de douche parfois juste (1 de plus serait idéal). Mais c’est un détail car nous n’avons jamais attendu trop longtemps.

Accommodation review : Nature Package

Bien délimité, mi soleil mi ombre (c’est un plus quand il fait très chaud) et plein de charme avec son muret en pierre

Review of the campsite :

Ongedwongen sfeer. Een prettige, rustige en kleine camping. Vlakbij een zwemriviertje; prachtig! Hele vriendelijke en gastvrije eigenaren.

De afvalbakken vlakbij de entree vd camping zorgden voor een bijzondere geur.

Accommodation review : Nature Package

Kampeerplek, mooi formaat! Tussen de wijngaarden en krekelgeluiden.

Schoenen aan; de kastanjenaaldjes zijn scherp!
