I visited this beautiful site on a PGL school trip in 1991 and had always wanted to return. The location is beautiful and the site lives up to its name under the night sky. New owners Nathalie and Christophe were very welcoming, helpful and friendly, offering local recommendations and information.
An upgrade of the electrical connection points, perhaps.
We had a large pitch, which was flat and secluded under the trees. It was late on in a very dry season so we were effectively pitching on sand, but this was not a problem. Unfortunately our power cable was incompatible with the power point, but we didn’t realise until after we had pitched the tent. Other pitches had the compatible connections but we decided not to bother trying to move as we were only there for two nights.
The only real negative was the wasps.

Everything was beyond my expectations. The friendly welcome from Natalie and Christophe set the tone for the stay. Lots of recommendations for things to do in the local area including booking a kayak trip on the river. Simple, tasty, evening meals. The safari tent we booked was much larger than we expected and very well equipped.
It was much larger than expected. Plenty of space for storage and relaxation. Well equipped. Comfy beds and lots of chairs and tables. We loved it!

Very friendly staff, beautiful area for walking and the river was a perfect swimming spot.
Cute inside, well decorated, everything you need for basic short stay
Quite chilly at night, squeaky bed

The campsite is in a peaceful location full of wildlife with easy access to walks and a stunning viewpoint across the gorge. The hosts were really helpful and the facilities were great, including the games and on site restaurant. The steep walk down to the river was worth it for a nice morning or evening swim and we enjoyed seeing lots of nature too during our stay. Easy access to nearby sites such as the caves and also canoeing on the Ardeche.
Great pitch.

Perfect little campsite ably run by Natalie and Christophe. Lovely setting in amongst the shady pines which was perfect for us being in a tent. Private grounds in the national park and a short but let’s not pretend, steep drop down to the gorge for a swim on what felt like a private beach. It’s a great place, nice bar/restaurant/seating area to relax in after your day out on the river it beautiful surroundings. Charming village of La Bastide du Virac on your doorstep too. If you want a laid back slice of camping heaven, this is the place… Thanks for a wonderful welcome and stay.
Quiet seclusion in the Ardeche. Who would want more..

We had a short but lovely stay at Mille Etoiles in a truly magical location. The vibe is relaxed, the atmosphere calm, everybody being really nice. The kids made friends quickly and we had a fun time hiking down 20 mins to the river for a swim in the river.
The yurt was spacious and well equipped, the facilities clean and well maintained, the staff very friendly and helpful.

We had an absolutely delightful stay at Mille Etoiles. The campground is situated beautifully among trees with plenty of shade and sunny spots. Nadine was so helpful with any questions we had. We enjoyed the restaurant which has a nice selection of food and is easy and comfortable, particularly with kids. The option to order baguette and croissants for the mornings was so convenient. And the most wonderful of all was the river. The hike down is a steep 25-30 minute walk but it is so worth it! At the bottom you arrive in a little paradise of coves and rocks and beaches.
None!
Our Safari Lodge was just perfect, spacious, comfortable, clean, well-appointed with everything we needed. We loved the comfort of cooking in our own kitchen and eating on the lovely porch. It truly felt like staying in a cosy cabin. One of the most comfortable stays we have had!
The shower door needs fixing. Everything else was just perfect.

The location of the campsite is excellent. It is really at the heart of all the adventure the region can offer. The safari tents are lovely, and the staff are super helpful and friendly.
Well made, well set up and well equipped.

Very private yurt with views of the gorge.
We enjoyed the remote countryside and being able to put our donkey in the paddock! It was outside the busy season and very quiet which was great.

Excellent hard working hosts. Fresh croissants, Bread and coffee each morning and nice family menu for the evening if required. Safari lodge perfect for our needs. Our family members with children enjoyed camping on a pitch close by. Peaceful site and great base for exploring the region.
Clean tidy and suited our needs well as other family members stayed onsite on another pitch. They joined us for some family meals around the table on the lodge veranda in the evening.

Yurt was comfortable and convenient, site fairly quiet and well-located in the natural park and a we could walk to the river down the steep gorge track. It's amazing to be able to eat at the campsite cafe and order fresh bakery items every day.
It was slightly annoying to have slippery plastic mattress and duvet covers. But appreciate this is helpful for keeping them clean. Also having to take soap and toilet paper every time we went to the bathrooms (none provided). And we didn't have enough comfortable chairs for everyone (you only have one sun lounger and one hammock for a family of 4).
Yurt has a mini kitchen hut with a cooking stove and fridge and box with all crockery and utensils. Perfect!
Plastic covers on duvet and mattress were slippery and duvet keeps getting bunched up. Recommend bringing your own blankets instead as a duvet isn't really needed in August anyway.

L’accueil, l'emplacement, le site..et les superbes salles d’eau !
J’aurais acheté l’ensemble de nos repas s’il y avait eu un petit peu plus d’offres pour le rayon épicerie, afin de profiter à max du lieu sans reprendre la voiture pour faire les courses... mais je pourrais m'organiser autrement la prochaine fois !
Sans soucis
