Do you dream of a wonderful getaway in the heart of the wilderness without sacrificing your comfort? Welcome to Camping Les Truffières 3*, located in Saint-Marcel-d'Ardèche. For your next holiday, we offer air-conditioned mobile home rentals in southern Ardèche, designed for those who want to explore the famous Ardèche Gorges during the day and enjoy the coolness of a modern interior at night. Between relaxing by the pool and geological discoveries, enjoy a 3-star stay where everything is planned for your well-being.
Why choose to rent a mobile home for your holiday in Ardèche?
Given the diversity of tourist accommodation in the 07 department, mobile homes are the most balanced solution for families and couples. Unlike a traditional hotel room, they offer complete independence and direct access to the great outdoors, while guaranteeing a higher standard of equipment than traditional tent camping. At Camping Les Truffières, we have designed our spaces so that your holiday rental in southern Ardèche becomes a true haven of serenity.
The perfect balance between modern comfort and immersion in nature
Staying in a mobile home means choosing to live at the pace of the cicadas without the logistical constraints. In summer, temperatures in southern Ardèche can easily exceed 30°C. This is where our offer stands out: each accommodation has high-performance reversible air conditioning. This detail, often overlooked, is essential for ensuring a good night's sleep and protecting young children from the heat. You can enjoy a fully equipped kitchen, private bathroom facilities and separate bedrooms, all just a few minutes away from major natural sites such as the Aven d'Orgnac and the Pont d'Arc.
Comparison: Mobile home vs Tent, Hotel or Cottage
To help you make the best decision for your budget and comfort, here is a summary of the advantages of mobile homes compared to other types of accommodation:
| Accommodation | Comfort | Nature Immersion | Privacy | Controlled Budget | Freedom |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tent | ❌ Basic comfort, often subject to weather conditions | ✅ Direct contact with nature | ❌ Limited privacy, possible proximity to others | ✅ Most economical option | ✅ Great flexibility in choosing your spot |
| Hotel | ✅ Standardized services and comfort | ❌ Often far from natural surroundings | ✅ Private rooms | ❌ Can be expensive, especially for families | ❌ Less flexibility with meals and activities |
| Cottage or Chalet | ✅ Home-like comfort, often more spacious | ✅ Can offer a pleasant natural setting | ✅ Fully private | ❌ Often higher cost, sometimes extra charges | ✅ Autonomy and independence |
| Mobile Home | ✅ Modern facilities: kitchen, bathroom, air conditioning... | ✅ Located in a natural campsite, easy access to outdoor spaces | ✅ Separate living spaces, private terrace | ✅ Excellent value for money, ideal for families and groups | ✅ Freedom to manage meals and schedule, while enjoying campsite services |
In short, mobile homes surpass other options in terms of versatility. They combine the freedom to manage your own meals with the high-end services of a 3-star campsite (water park, gourmet restaurant, entertainment), all in a wooded and relaxing environment.
At Les Truffières Campsite, we have selected three ranges of accommodation to meet your specific needs in terms of comfort and budget. Whether you are coming for a romantic weekend or a week with your family in Saint-Marcel-d'Ardèche, our rentals share a common base of "zero stress" services.
Les Truffières exclusive: To allow you to travel light, all bedding (sheets and pillows) is provided in all our rentals. Add to that standard reversible air conditioning and you get the comfort of a hotel with the freedom of the great outdoors.
Le Garrigue mobile home: The best value for money
The Le Garrigue model is the benchmark accommodation for those seeking efficiency and conviviality.
- Surface area: 31 m², optimised for ease of movement.
- Why choose it? It's the smart choice for enjoying the southern Ardèche on a budget while benefiting from 3-star amenities.
Trigano Évolution 31 mobile home: Modernity and ergonomics
Designed by the leading French manufacturer, the Trigano Évolution 31 is aimed at holidaymakers who value design and modernity.
Watipi mobile home: Charm and functionality

| Chambres | Personnes Max |
|---|---|
| 2 | 4 |
- Layout: A clever layout where every square metre is used for storage.
- The plus: Perfectly integrated into the wooded environment of the campsite, it offers a smooth transition between the interior and the large semi-covered terrace.
- Why choose it? Ideal for a couple with two young children or for those who want functional and easy-going accommodation.
Premium facilities for a stay that feels just like home.
A fully equipped interior: complete kitchen and quality bedding
- Fully equipped kitchen: Prepare your meals in complete freedom. You will have a large fridge with freezer (essential for ice cream!), hotplates, a microwave, a coffee maker and all the crockery and utensils you need. It's ideal for cooking fresh produce bought at the market in Saint-Marcel-d'Ardèche or Bourg-Saint-Andéol.
- Well-appointed sleeping area: We know that a good stay depends on the quality of your sleep. Our two separate bedrooms, designed to ensure everyone's privacy, are equipped with firm, comfortable mattresses. The little extra for 2026: sheets and pillows are provided in our rentals, saving you the often tedious task of bringing your own. You only need to bring your own towels.
- Separate bathroom and WC: For added comfort, the bathroom and toilet are separate to offer a better quality of life during your stay.
The essential advantage of reversible air conditioning
- Reversible air conditioning: for a consistently comfortable indoor temperature, whatever the season.
In southern Ardèche, the sun shines generously, but afternoons and nights can be stifling. Choosing a campsite in Ardèche with air-conditioned mobile homes is not a luxury, it is the guarantee of a successful holiday. Thanks to our reversible air conditioning systems, you have complete control over your environment. Whether it's for the little ones' afternoon nap after a morning of swimming or to enjoy a cool night despite the heat outside, your accommodation remains a temperate and soothing refuge.
Semi-shaded terrace and garden furniture for your meals
- Outdoor terrace: enjoy your meals or relax outdoors in a peaceful setting.
- Semi-covered terrace with garden furniture: The ideal place for al fresco dining and relaxing with friends and family.
The Ardèche lifestyle is all about being outdoors. That's why each mobile home opens onto a semi-covered wooden terrace. Equipped with a full set of garden furniture, it becomes your main living area: from breakfast to the sound of cicadas singing to dinner under the starry sky of the nature reserve surrounding the campsite. Partial shade allows you to enjoy the light without suffering from the direct heat of the sun during the hottest hours of the day.
Your private parking space on the pitch
Logistics should not be a source of stress. Unlike many establishments where parking is centralised and far away, we have designed each plot to include a private parking space.
- Private parking: For easy arrival and departure.
- Security: Your vehicle (SUV, people carrier or family car) remains within sight.
- Convenience: Unloading shopping or beach bags takes just a few seconds, right outside your door. This is invaluable for families travelling with lots of equipment.

The aquatic area and its sunny swimming pool
An essential gathering place on summer afternoons, our pool area is a true oasis of coolness.

L'Oustaou restaurant, The Pub bar and entertainment
Gastronomy is at the heart of the Ardèche experience. There's no need to take your car to discover the flavours of the region:
- L'Oustaou: Our semi-gourmet restaurant showcases local produce. The chef creates "home-style" cuisine inspired by local farmers' markets. It's the ideal place to try a caillette or a mature Picodon cheese.
- The Pub: For a more relaxed atmosphere, our Irish-inspired beer bar is open all year round. It's the perfect place to enjoy a craft beer or cocktail after a day of sightseeing. Evenings and conviviality: In high season, the campsite comes alive with open-air concerts and themed meals, always with respect for the peace and quiet of our holidaymakers.

What is there to do in southern Ardèche around our estate?
Ideally located in Saint-Marcel-d'Ardèche, Les Truffières Campsite is the perfect base from which to explore the region's treasures. Whether you're a prehistory enthusiast, an outdoor sports fanatic or a foodie in search of local flavours, the southern Ardèche (the "Bas-Vivarais") offers a concentration of exceptional sites that is unique in France.
The highlight of the show is only 20 minutes from the campsite. The Ardèche Gorges Nature Reserve can be explored via the famous panoramic road, dotted with spectacular viewpoints such as the Balcon des Templiers.
- The Pont d'Arc: This monumental 54-metre-high natural arch is a must-see for a memorable swim, located less than 30 kilometres from the campsite.
- The Chauvet 2 Cave: About a 30-minute drive away, visit the exact replica of humanity's greatest masterpiece (listed by UNESCO). It is a fascinating immersive experience, ideal for families to understand the history of our Ardèche ancestors.
- L'Aven d'Orgnac: Classified as a "Grand Site de France", this underground chasm, with dimensions reminiscent of a cathedral, plunges you 121 metres underground.
Charming villages and Provençal markets
The southern Ardèche also boasts a beautiful architectural heritage. Around Saint-Marcel, don't miss a stroll through the cobbled streets of:
- Aiguèze: Just opposite Saint-Martin-d'Ardèche, listed among the "Most Beautiful Villages in France", barely 10 minutes from our estate.
- Vallon-Pont-d'Arc: An iconic location in the Ardèche region, just 25 kilometres from the campsite, or a 30-minute drive.
- Balazuc and Labeaume: Villages clinging to the cliffside that seem suspended in time (allow 35 to 40 minutes to get there).
- Local flavours: For an authentic taste of the region, visit the local markets. The market in Pont-Saint-Esprit (on Saturdays, a 10-minute drive away) or the one in Vallon-Pont-d'Arc are perfect for finding Picodon (AOP goat's cheese), Ardèche chestnut cream or artisanal caillette.
If you're looking for action, there's a wide range of leisure activities available around the campsite:
- Canoeing down the Ardèche: Several partner rental companies offer suitable routes (7km, 24km or 32km) starting from Vallon-Pont-d'Arc or Saint-Martin-d'Ardèche. You can also make your booking at the campsite reception.
Note: Here is a link to the Ardèche Gorges descent page. - La Ferme aux Crocodiles: Located just 15 minutes away in Pierrelatte, this is a favourite destination for children, with over 400 animals to observe in a giant tropical greenhouse.
Note: Here is a link to the Crocodile Farm page. - Hiking and mountain biking: Starting right from the campsite, marked trails allow you to venture into the scrubland and truffle oak forests, far from the hustle and bustle.

megane gautheret 5/5
I was just passing through for the weekend to see my parents and children. Unfortunately, both my children were very ill, but the attentiveness, empathy and kindness of the owners and their team enabled me to have a good weekend in spite of everything. Without judgement or pretension, the owner called several numbers so that my children could see a doctor.
Over and above the sense of family, this is a simple campsite, close to the people, with facilities that make you want to do anything but leave!
The staff are very attentive and the site is extremely clean!
Thank you very much! See you next year and without germs this time! 😂

Great family campsite. We stopped several nights during our mountain bike tour (Viarhona) the pitches are large, sanitary facilities and showers tip top. The campsite managers are friendly, available and caring. The swimming pool is nice, although quickly shaded in September.
Don't hesitate to relax in the peace and quiet of this campsite. Beware, access by bike: steep climb.
