  • Quiet flower-filled site in Provence, in a 100-year-old olive grove
  • Half an hour by car from the coast, Grasse and Pic de Courmes hikes
  • Outdoor pool, shop, bread delivered in summer; 10 minutes from town
Seeking a spot between mountains and sea? Hoping for stylish beaches and ancient villages, a dash of art and top nosh, with maybe some walks and shopping thrown in? You must want Camping La Camassade, a fabulous spot in France's Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region, 10 minutes’ drive from the town of Tourrettes-sur-Loup. A lot of care has gone into this site, which stands among century-old olive groves and oak trees. The plants give the place colour and scent, attracting insects and birds so you never feel as if you’ve left the Provençal countryside behind. Despite being rooted in its surroundings, this is a comfortable and well-maintained site: the washrooms are bright and spacious, and heated in the winter; there’s a swimming pool and paddling pool to cool off in at the end of a long day, and table football and table tennis are to hand for those with a competitive streak. You won’t go short of supplies thanks to the on-site shop and daily deliveries of fresh bread in the summer. It’s a half-hour hike or a 10-minute drive to Tourrettes-sur-Loup, where there are numerous restaurants, bars and bakeries, as well as small supermarkets.

Electric optional grass and earth pitch

Liked: On a aimé le fait de pouvoir choisir notre place dans le camping, Que le personnel réponde vite aux mails et c’est un personnel très sympa et chaleureux, on a eu un petit soucis et ils nous ont dépannés 🙂 La petite épicerie est pas mal du tout non plus ! Le coin est discret, très calme et donc agréable. Niveau propreté, rien à dire tout était propre même les sanitaires! Le fait d’avoir une douche chauffée est un point en plus avant l’été et d’avoir une douche prévue pour les personnes en situation de handicap est très cool aussi Enfin on a passé un super séjour et nous reviendrons

Disliked: Il n’y a pas de point négatif pour nous pour ce séjour 🙂

Electric optional grass and earth pitch

Liked: The setting was quiet and beautiful. The washrooms were new but there were only 2 working toilets.

Disliked: The pitches did not have any gravel. As it rained heavily we feared getting stuck in the mud. I know it is normal in France, but I am not accustomed to unisex bathrooms. It was difficult to drive our large motorhome to the campsite which is high in the mountains.

From the manager: Hello, Thank you for your rating and your appreciation. We are happy you enjoyed our new sanitaries, but it's a pity you didn't see all of the toilets (5) were opened - and working of course :))) See you soon !

From the manager: Hello, Thank you for your rating and your comment. We don't illuminate our campground to preserve the nocturnal fauna. However, if the "path of light" is not bright enough, we will address it. Our facilities are cleaned twice a day during the high season. If there happens to be an "issue" in between, we would appreciate our campers letting us know so that we can immediately fix the problem. It's a pity you didn't inform us :/ See you soon!

From the manager: Hola, gracias por su comentario, su calificación y... todas esas hermosas fotos de nuestro pueblo :) Estamos haciendo nuestro máximo esfuerzo para mantener los baños limpios y realizamos 2 limpiezas al día. Pero cuando el camping está completo, es difícil mantener el nivel de limpieza que nos esforzamos por mantener. ¡Hasta pronto!

Local attractions

Look north to the Alpine foothills and south to the Mediterranean coast and you’ll have a pretty good idea of what's on offer round here. If it’s walks you want, there are easy but rewarding trails around the two waterfalls of Saut de Loup and Courmes, both about 15 minutes' drive away. If you prefer something more strenuous, paths outside Courmes snake 3,000 feet up to the Pic de Courmes for fab views across the whole region, and a celebrated via ferrata climbing route is at Caille, 50 minutes away. For seaside stuff, it’s half an hour to Cagnes-sur-Mer, and an hour to Nice and Antibes. Along with their upmarket beaches, these towns have a fine spread of museums and galleries as well as markets for wandering and present-buying. On the way to or from Antibes, you might also benefit from a stopoff at the complex of family-friendly attractions: sea lion and dolphin shows at Marineland, slides and chutes and flumes at Aquasplash and fairground rides at Antibesland, all about 50 minutes from the site, ensure every member of the party has something to smile about. To see more of inner Provence, and smell it, get over to Grasse (half an hour) for the perfume museum, perfume shops and legendary lavender fields nearby. If you need more souvenirs of your stay, the pretty villages of Biot and Vallauris are famed for their glass and pottery respectively; both are within 50 minutes.
