  • Family-friendly site on the banks of the Rhône, 5km from Montélimar
  • An hour's drive from the Gorges de l'Ardèche and Pont d'Arc
  • Swimming pool, tennis court and lake with watersports activities
If it’s aquatic antics you seek, you’ve come to the right place at Camping de l'Île Blanc. This is a wonderfully watery location, right on the banks of the Rhône river and with a private lake for swims, fishing and watersports (jetskiing, canoeing, banana boating and pedaloes among them). And it doesn’t stop there: there’s also a fab open-air swimming pool and paddling pool, with a spacious sun terrace for supervising grownups and those who need to dry out for a while. Tennis, volleyball, pétanque and a playground are also on site for fun away from the water, and there’s a daily programme of activities both lake-based and on dry land during the summer. Evenings have their fair share of organised entertainment too, with welcome drinks, karaoke, live music and themed meals featuring frequently on the menu. When not being used as a social hub, the bar-restaurant serves up chilled drinks and homemade dishes either in its airy indoor room or out on its lakeside terrace. Venture forth from your riverside spot and you’re in a good position to explore much of the Drôme Provençale region: Montélimar is a 10-minute drive away and you can drive to the jaw-droppingly gorgeous Gorges de l’Ardèche in around an hour.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: Lovely view over lake

Disliked: Dirty, dilapidated and ancient facilities. Wholly neglected and uninviting. Recommend avoiding this one! I will not return. Couldn't wait to leave. Only good point is the setting, nice lake. Needs a lot of money spending to achieve even an average rating from me.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: Leuke camping. We hadden een mooie plaats onder de bomen mede doordat het erg heet was was dit erg aangenaam. Sanitair is uit jaar kruik wel goede warme en ruime douches. Mijn vrouw kreeg amper de wc deur pen nadat ze op het toilet was geweest. Wat mij ook opviel was dat er erg veel rommel op het terrein lag. Zoals papier, plastic sigaretten peuken etc. Voor de rest gemoedelijke mensen. Ontvangst prima “ zoek maar een plekje uit”.

Disliked: Voor die paar nachten maak ik me niet zo druk.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: Personnel accueillant et sympathique. Emplacements spacieux et arborés. Camping calme. Douches chaudes (ce qui n est pas toujours le cas en camping) Le lac et les activités qu'on peut y pratiquer sont un gros +. Bon rapport qualité prix.

Disliked: Structure gonflable pour les enfants vétuste, (le plastique s effrite). Ce qui n'a pas empêché les enfants d'y jouer pendant des heures 😅

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: We used this as an overnight stop. Giving this place the benefit of doubt, I suspect it may be at it's best during peak season. The gate was locked & no one was around when we arrived (having added the time to the booking) We were let in by a passing cyclist. Pitches are poorly defined, so what we thought was ok with a lovely view was ruined with another van squeezing into a tight gap. The pool is nice, but most of the sun loungers are broken. The toilet and shower facilities use at your peril, they could be cleaner. The bar was lively & staff pleasant enough. A little injection of cash could make this place a perfect retreat.

Disliked: Shabby toilets, needs a like of paint & some repairs.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: Le cadre est vraiment top.

Disliked: La structure manque d'entretien. Il y a besoin d'un bon coup de rafraîchissement. La "pompe" près de la piscine qui rejette de l eau au lac qui a tourné toute la nuit du vendredi au samedi. Le bruit est insupportable. Grosse fête le samedi soir jusque 3h du matin qui empêche de dormir.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: View of the lake and beer good.

Disliked: EVERYTHING is tatty dirty rundown and downright dangerous the 240v 1mt high electric box was unlocked and showing bare live wires (no 35) great for a 3yr old toddler! The waste camper water was blocked to overflowing the same pipe to flush away the shit is used to fill water tanks, no float rings in the lake or pool, fag ends not cleared up in the bar crap from the tables left for hours on the waste bins ect . To sum up the owners have given up lost the plot and could not give a dam. I did not use the shower or toilet they may be O.K.

Local attractions

The nearest town, Montélimar, is a sweet place to hang out for a while: the streets here are packed with shops selling the local nougat and the Palace of Sweets and Nougat is a fab place to find out more about all manner of sweet treats. Suitably sugar-fuelled, leave the Rhône behind for a while and head off for a hilly hike in the Monts d’Ardèche Regional Natural Park, around an hour from the site. Canyoning, climbing and a treetop adventure course are all available for those who fancy an adrenaline fix, while the châteaux at Aubenas and Vogüé are a good place for a somewhat calmer outing. Also around an hour away are the Gorges de l’Ardèche and Pont d’Arc, best explored by hiring a canoe and paddling your way through the craggy limestone scenery.
