  • In Provence, between the Luberon and Alpilles natural parks
  • Among tiny traditional villages 30 kilometres from Avignon
  • Tennis court and clean modern amenities; free access to community pool
This Provence site is pretty well set: two kilometres from the old town of Cavaillon, at the foot of the Luberon mountains in the Luberon Regional Park and within easy driving distance of Provence villages, castles, vineyards and festivals galore. And – if you also crave sand on a French hol, it's less than an hour from some spectacular Mediterranean beaches too. Camping La Durance is a big and family-friendly site, with spacious mixed pitches by hedges or under shady trees. A good cluster of facilities (including a tennis court) should keep the troops busy during site-based hours, and as an added bonus guests have free access to the community swimming pool next door. There's also been plenty of attention given to the clean modern amenities of toilet blocks with free hot showers, a launderette and a washing-up area. Sort supplies for a pitchside supper in the shops and Monday market of nearby Cavaillon, or stick around in town for foodie evenings and Provence specialties in the local restaurants and bars.

What customers say

Spacious, private pitches with good facilities & friendly staff. Close to town & a great pool complex. Can be a bit hard for tents, WiFi's limited, and some road/train noise.

Power optional concrete and grass site (comfort)

Liked ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lovely Site with a Minor Access Quirk
We had a fantastic stay at this caravan site – the facilities were clean, well-maintained, and clearly cared for. The pitches were spacious
and the peaceful surroundings made it a perfect getaway. Staff were friendly and welcoming, and everything was very well organised.

The only small issue we encountered was with the one-way system when accessing the pitch. While it's manageable, the route isn’t ideally suited for larger caravans or motorhomes, as some of the turns are quite tight. It would be helpful if the site could consider an alternative entry option or clearer guidance for larger vehicles.
That said, once set up, everything else was smooth sailing. We’d definitely return – just something to be aware of if you’re towing a longer unit!

Disliked See above

From the manager: Thank you so much for your kind words ! We’re really happy you enjoyed the site and our team’s welcome. We appreciate your note about access and will keep it in mind. Lovely to know you’d return. We look forward to seeing you again!

Liked L'accueil très agréable et très gentil.

Disliked Le bruit de l'arrosage automatique derrière l'emplacement du camping qui nuisait à la qualité du sommeil la nuit, mais cela était indépendant du camping car extérieur.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Bonjour,
Merci d’avoir pris le temps de partager votre retour. Nous sommes ravis que vous ayez apprécié la propreté de nos sanitaires.

Concernant le savon, nous comprenons tout à fait votre remarque. Pour des raisons d’hygiène, de sécurité et d’entretien (risques de débordement, nettoyage constant, allergies…), nous ne pouvons malheureusement pas en mettre à disposition dans les sanitaires publics. C’est pourquoi chaque campeur est invité à apporter ses produits d’hygiène personnelle.

Pour le snack, il est effectivement lié aux horaires de la piscine intercommunale, ce qui explique sa fermeture le soir.

Local attractions

Teeny and traditional rural villages are dotted around the Luberon region landscape, well within an hour's drive from Camping La Durance: try Gordes, Oppède, Mérindole, Roussillon, Rustrel and Lagnes for days' worth of sightseeing as well as potters around their traditional Provencal markets. Also about 30 kilometres away is the splendid old city of Avignon, on the left bank of the Rhône. Its most famed sights are the Palais des Papes, Avignon Cathedral and the Pont d'Avignon, all making up the UNESCO World Heritage Site in the town centre, but the views of the city over the river from the gardens of the Rocher des Doms are certainly not to be sniffed at, and its many museums (like the Petit Palais and the three floors of natural history at the Museum Requien) are also top city picks. Other good picks in the area are the Lavender Museum at Coustellet, the Thouzon cave or cave of fairies at Le Thor, the art shows at quarry Les Carrières de Lumière, the animals and nine kilometres of walking trails at Barben Zoo, and the high bike rides around Mont Ventoux, nicknamed the Beast of Provence for its jelly-legged tough climbs.
