It's a veritable explosion of colours, flavours and scents, where you can taste and buy local Ardèche produce direct from the producers: olives, chestnut honey, goat's cheese (the famous Picodon PDO), traditional charcuterie (caillette, dry sausage), chestnuts in all their forms (cream, flour, marrons glacés), lavender and many other delights. This is your chance to take a piece of the Ardèche home with you and support the local economy. And of course, don't leave without savouring the famous Ardèche wines, available directly from local winegrowers for an authentic tasting in the cellars of the Côtes du Rhône or the Vins de pays des Coteaux de l'Ardèche. The immediate proximity (just 4 km) of the majestic Ardèche Gorges gives you quick access to this emblematic natural site, ideal for swimming, canoeing or simply admiring the breathtaking scenery from its scenic lookouts (such as the Serre de Tourre or the Pont d'Arc). Finally, discover the many ardèche castles dotted around the region, silent witnesses to its tumultuous history and legends. All these wonders are within easy reach of your campsite with swimming pool in the Ardèche, making each day a new adventure and an inexhaustible source of discovery. Your discovery of the Ardèche starts with these exceptional sites.
