  • Camping on a family farm five minutes’ drive from Fanjeaux in the Aude
  • The Canal du Midi 15 minutes’ drive and Carcassonne 35 minutes
  • Tree-shaded pitches, a shared eating area, play park and fishing lake
It appears that they’re doing everything right at Camping Les Brugues, a peaceful and family-friendly spot in the Aude that has flourished since 1980. Currently run by the third generation of the same farming family, it’s five minutes’ drive from the hilltop town of Fanjeaux and 35 minutes from the medieval wonders of Carcassonne, so location may play a part here too. Surrounded by fields grazed by sheep and edging a fishing lake, the campsite sits in woodland 500 metres from the family’s farm. The grass pitches are all tucked under mature trees for shade (some have electric hook-ups) and handy facilities include a play area with climbing frames and swings for the young, and a communal eating/drinking/chilling area for the whole family, where you can also pick up tourist information to inspire local days out. As well as organising weekly evening meet-ups over local aperitifs, owners Nadine, Cédric and Luc run tours of their farm, where the kids can cuddle rabbits, chickens and pigs, and you can learn more about the dairy sheep, whose milk goes to producing the Languedoc’s tangy AOC Roquefort cheese.

Electric grass pitch

Liked The pool was fab. Elisa went to the bakery every morning so we didn't have to. She was so helpful, finding us a vet for one of the dogs as I don't speak much french. You camp in the grounds of the chateau and it was lovely and quiet.

Disliked Wifi didn't reach our pitch so we went through quite a lot of our roaming data. The electric wasn't very strong. We could only run our caravan on 1kw, but that was OK.

Beautiful quiet, small site next to a lake.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Beautiful quiet site with small number of large pitches next to a tranquil lake. Showers/toilets very clean. Easy access to electric and water. Host Nadine was very friendly and helpful. Excellent wifi. Large variety of birds song 24/7 (nightingales during night, Orioles during daylight) Easy access cycling on quiet roads. Quaint rustic bakery in Fangieux, also mini mart (but no fresh milk sold). There is a bus from nearest village, Fangieux to Carcassonne (NB outward is 07.40, return is 17.20, nothing between. €2/person each way)

Disliked Not a real problem if you have transport but the pitches are approx 1km from the reception office, a long way to hike. No provision to order morning bread etc. Nearest village is 10 mins cycle.

Friendly owner easy check in

Electric grass pitch

Liked This is most definitely a gem! The campsite is small but with generous pitches. It overlooks a small lake deep in the countryside and surrounded by vineyards and sunflowers. Cedric welcomed us and invited us for an aperitif on Saturday evening - fantastic wine and cheese with his family and other campers. It was a lovely gesture and, of course, the next day everyone was very friendly! The facilities are exceptionally clean and well maintained. This level of care and generosity is rare and we cannot recommend the site more highly.

Disliked Nothing.

Local attractions

Keen walkers will be pleased to learn that days out can start from your pitch, as three hiking trails pass close by, but in fact you don’t have to leave the site at all to have a jolly good time. There are facilities for riotous games of football and basketball, and don’t forget the lake, where you can fish from the banks or go boating and swimming. Still sticking with water-based activities, hire barges to potter down the tree-shaded Canal du Midi from the Port de Bram (15 minutes’ drive), or learn how to sail at the waterside club on Lac de la Ganguise (35 minutes). For a deep dive into the history of the Pays Cathare, have a look around the hilltop castle in ancient Fanjeaux (five minutes), or head for Carcassonne (35 minutes) to walk around the medieval ramparts, have a wander around labyrinthine Bastide Saint-Louis and take a look at the priceless religious treasures on show in Notre-Dame de l’Abbaye.
