  • Family site in Aude, 20 minutes' walk away from Montolieu
  • Carcassonne and the Canal du Midi within 20 minutes' drive
  • Pétanque tournaments, concerts and a local market during high season
Vineyards, forests and mountains: what a spectacular setting for a getaway. Camping de Montolieu is a 20-minute walk away from the village of Montolieu, with its cafés, restaurants, local produce shops, second-hand booksellers and artists' studios. After your stroll through the local valleys, there's nothing like a refreshment on the terrace of the site's snack bar followed by dinner after a few of the available activities: ping pong, table football and the excellent game of pétanque. For more action, a tennis court and football pitch are next to the site, and a heated open-air pool is available five minutes’ walk away in July and August. Pétanque tournaments, concerts and a local market are also available on site during high season. The site’s other weekly activities in summer also include sociable communal meals and the chance to sample the fruits of those vineyards in wine tasting sessions with local tipples from the surrounding Cabardès appellation.

Local attractions

A château visit is almost obligatory around here: perhaps to the remains of Château de Saissac (15 minutes’ drive), or to the Châteaux de Lastours (half an hour), where no fewer than four castles peer down on the village from their hilltop setting. And for those with something of an interest in their vino, surely a stop at one (or all) of the area’s wineries must also be on the cards – there are several within a 20-minute drive, so take your pick. Got the kids in tow? Perhaps dial down on the wine-based tourism and instead aim for the antipodean animal park Le Parc Australien (half an hour) or underground exploration at the Gouffre de Cabrespine (45 minutes). If you only make it to one day out around here though, it really should be to Carcassonne (20 minutes), famed for its fairytale-like hilltop medieval citadel and 12th-century castle and a fine place to board boat trips on the Canal du Midi.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: sanitair was goed, voldoende schaduw. erg vriendelijke eigenaar en het Barretje ook gezellig. vlakke staanplaats

Disliked: de door hagen afgeschermde plekken waren erg hoog. Er moest nodig gesnoeid worden. geluid van de weg in de ochtend zwembad nog een dag open en toch wel een eind lopen naar het gemeente zwembad
