  • Family site in Aude, 20 minutes' walk away from Montolieu
  • Carcassonne and the Canal du Midi within 20 minutes' drive
  • Concerts and a local market during summer; big free meals provided
Vineyards, forests and mountains: what a spectacular setting for a getaway. Camping de Montolieu is a 20-minute walk away from the village of Montolieu, with its cafés, restaurants, local produce shops, second-hand booksellers and artists' studios. After your stroll through the local valleys, there's nothing like a refreshment on the terrace of the site's snack bar followed by dinner after one of the available activities: ping pong or table football. For more action, a tennis court and football pitch are next to the site, and a heated open-air pool is available five minutes’ walk away in July and August. Concerts and a local market are also available on site during summer. The site’s other weekly activities in summer also include sociable communal meals and the chance to sample the fruits of those vineyards in wine tasting sessions with local tipples from the surrounding Cabardès appellation.

Power optional grass site

Liked Facilities, showers etc. hot water, clean. Good size pitch. Warm welcome and very helpful check in!

Disliked Needed a little tlc around the place but adequate for an over night stay on route.

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts!

We’re glad you appreciated the warm welcome, the clean facilities, and the comfort of your pitch. It was a pleasure to host you, even briefly, on your journey through the region.

We’re aware that a few corners of the site could use some extra care, and we're working on it — bit by bit, just the two of us! We hope you’ll stop by again one day to see the improvements.

Wishing you many more beautiful travels,
Pauline & Greg

Liked Greated by a lovely lady, who explained everything we needed to know about the site, and I asked questions about the area regarding places to visit, originally booked for 2 nights but stayed extra because the weather was so nice, visited carcassone a must, a montelieu, was very quaint, clean facilities, and used the washing machine whilst staying. Would stay again.

Disliked If your a light sleeper, there is some road noise.

From the manager: Merci beaucoup pour votre avis ! Nous sommes ravis d'apprendre que vous avez apprécié votre séjour, notamment l'accueil chaleureux et les conseils sur les visites locales. Carcassonne et Montolieu sont en effet des incontournables de la région, et nous sommes heureux que vous ayez pu en profiter. C'est aussi un plaisir de savoir que les installations ont répondu à vos attentes.

Nous prenons note de votre remarque concernant le bruit de la route et nous sommes désolés que cela ait perturbé votre repos.

Au plaisir de vous accueillir à nouveau lors de votre prochaine visite !

Local attractions

A château visit is almost obligatory around here: perhaps to the remains of Château de Saissac (15 minutes’ drive), or to the Châteaux de Lastours (half an hour), where no fewer than four castles peer down on the village from their hilltop setting. And for those with something of an interest in their vino, surely a stop at one (or all) of the area’s wineries must also be on the cards – there are several within a 20-minute drive, so take your pick. Got the kids in tow? Perhaps dial down on the wine-based tourism and instead aim for the antipodean animal park Le Parc Australien (half an hour) or underground exploration at the Gouffre de Cabrespine (45 minutes). If you only make it to one day out around here though, it really should be to Carcassonne (20 minutes), famed for its fairytale-like hilltop medieval citadel and 12th-century castle and a fine place to board boat trips on the Canal du Midi.
