What customers say
This is a peaceful, eco-friendly campsite with spacious, shaded pitches and lovely views of the Pyrenees. Visitors praised the friendly hosts, convenient location near a supermarket and village, and clean facilities including a pool. While some noted limited toilet availability at night and the need to bring own toilet roll, the site is generally well-maintained and recommended for its natural setting and proximity to regional attractions like Carcassonne.

Liked The location was lovely, the town of Saissac in walking distance and the chateau history was interesting. A free bus ride to Carcassonne is a must. Be aware the last bus home is at 18:10.
The campground is geared to nature, being mindful of water usage. The facilities were all good. Laundry and dishwashing area is perfect for your needs. Toilets - make sure you bring your own loo paper. Showers do the job. You have to keep pushing the on button. But this saves on water. The shower & toilet block shut from 11pm for cleaning and for the night apart from 2 toilets and a wash basin.
The views were amazing from the camp and the ruins of the chateau.
A short 5 minute walk out of camp brings you to a grocery shop. It has everything you need. Next to that is a butcher. He shuts at midday. Get there early because the queues are long.
Stéphanie and Jean-Louis work very hard. Their philosophy of nature conservation shows around the campground.
Disliked Nothing really.
