About this property
Cottage Essentiel - 2 bedrooms sleeps 4
Residence:
In the heart of the Drôme Provençale, next to Nyons, our campsite invites you to slow down, relax and fully enjoy the gentle lifestyle of southern France.
Set on 3 hectares and sheltered from the mistral wind, the campsite offers both rental accommodations and pitches surrounded by greenery and separated by hedges, ensuring comfort, privacy and tranquillity.
Built in terraces on the hillside, the campsite offers beautiful panoramic views over the region's iconic landscapes, with lavender fields, olive trees and sun-bathed orchards. This natural layout, which gives the site its unique charm, means that some accommodations and pitches have sloping access, more than compensated by the stunning views and feeling of space and freedom.
The friendly pool area features a swimming pool heated from 13 May (temperature depending on weather conditions) as well as a fun water play area for children. Sun loungers and parasols invite you to relax and enjoy the Provençal sunshine.
A playground adds extra fun for younger guests, while table tennis, home-ball and pétanque courts create great moments to share with family and friends.
Everything is in place for a comfortable stay: a sanitary block, a bar-restaurant and ice-cream terrace, a small convenience shop, fresh bread and pastries each morning, and free Wi-Fi throughout the campsite.
The atmosphere is deliberately peaceful. Entertainment is limited and offered occasionally, mainly at weekends, in order to preserve the calm and natural spirit of the campsite.
Nature lovers will enjoy hiking and cycling routes starting directly from the campsite, as well as many outdoor activities nearby.
Located at the gateway to the Enclave des Papes, between the Drôme Provençale and the Baronnies Provençales, the campsite is perfectly situated to explore charming villages, Provençal markets and spectacular landscapes. All essential services are within 6 km.
An authentic and relaxing place where children enjoy outdoor adventures and parents can truly unwind and make the most of every moment.
We look forward to welcoming you!

Just 2 km away, the Combe de Sauve offers beautiful walks, cycling routes and scenic drives through unspoilt nature. Curious explorers can discover fascinating geological sites such as blue marls, saffres and sandstone formations.
Around the campsite stretch the iconic landscapes of the Drôme Provençale, with fragrant lavender fields, apricot orchards and olive groves producing the famous Nyons olives. Visit Nyons with its old town and Roman bridge, Richerenches, the truffle capital, Dieulefit renowned for its pottery, and Rémuzat for vulture watching.
History and nature lovers will enjoy Avignon, the impressive Mont Ventoux, the magnificent château of Grignan, and the ancient Roman remains of Vaison-la-Romaine.
Throughout the week, Provençal markets invite you to taste local specialities: Nyons olives and olive oil AOP, goat cheeses (picodons), nougat, apricots, lavender honey, Rhône Valley wines and regional produce.
A sunny, authentic region where nature, culture and gastronomy blend beautifully.
