  • Shaded park on the banks of the Hers river just outside Mazères
  • An hour's drive from Toulouse, Carcassonne and the Pyrenees
  • Swimming pools and fishing on site
A serene slice of riverside rural life, with the added bonus of being a leisurely amble from shops and restaurants? That’ll do nicely, merci beaucoup. Ticking many boxes on wishlists for both chilling out and convenient amenities is Camping La Bastide, a five-hectare site on the banks of the Hers river. There are lots of lovely little shaded spots to relax in, and there’s direct access to the river for fishing or canoeing, and the town of Mazères is a 20-minute trot away. Plonk down here for a little while and you’ll be within easy reach of all sorts of day trips – Toulouse, Carcassonne, Cathar castles and the Ariégoise Pyrenees Regional Natural Park are all within an hour or so’s drive. Dawdling on site is an equally fine prospect, though. Splash around in the swimming pools, lob some balls about at the tennis court, or limber up your pétanque arm in prep for the tournaments that run here in high season. Pétanque not your forte? Perhaps you’ll be more at home joining in with a game of volleyball or settling in for a show or a themed dinner, all of which feature on the summer schedule. For children, planned activities run during the summer season. Several times per week (usually at the end of the day or in the early evening), the staff will occupy them so that parents can get some peace and quiet.

Liked Shady spot close to river. Calm and quiet. Excellent pool facilities. Peacocks were a bit nosy across the river but they do not belong to the campsite.

Disliked Access and exit into town were a bit nerve-wracking.

Manque de règle et donc de calme

Electric grass pitch

Liked Sanitaires propres

Disliked Le bruit insupportable, 3 nuits sans réussir à dormir plus de 2h d'affilées. Les voisins qui rentrent en voiture/moto à n'importe quelle heure de la nuit, qui rigolent/parlent ou claquent les portes jusqu'à 5h et tout ça qui réveille les paons (à chaque bruit)qui sont de l'autre côté de la rive et hurlent à tue-tête avec les grenouilles qui leurs répondent. Je n'en veux pas aux animaux car je les comprends, j'ai été réveillée brusquement moi aussi par ces bruits intempestifs et je les comprends d'avoir crié en retour.

Piscines pas encore ouverte malgré les grosses chaleurs, remplies d'eaux car en préparation pendant plusieurs jours.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (backpacker)

Liked Beautiful location, lovely swimming pools and a private feel to the campsite. Very welcoming and we really enjoyed our stay and exploring the surrounding areas.

Disliked Nothing, but a couple of toilet door locks needed fixing and a light which was a little inconvenient a couple of times.

Local attractions

Toulouse makes a great day trip for all sorts of visitors. There are loads of churches, museums and gardens to wander around, and the city’s also got a fab reputation for its eateries and markets. Tiddlers may prefer to focus on the space-themed Cité de l’Espace, hit the rides at Animaparc theme park or take a boat trip down the Garonne river. Carcassonne is an equally excellent place for a day out – amble around the medieval citadel, take a trip on the Canal du Midi and gurn at the gargoyles over at Château Comtal. Also recommended around the locale are the medieval bastide town of Mirepoix, the Cathar castles of Montségur and Roquefixade, and lung-stretching hikes in the Ariégoise Pyrenees Regional Natural Park.
