Swimming pool with a view over the mountains

Riverside campsite near the Pyrenees
On-site snack bar, summer entertainment and many sports available
Between Pau and Lourdes

At the edge of a river near the Pyrenees, within easy reach of Bious-Artigues lake, and with long lengths of walking and cycling trails snaking around its Pyrénées-Atlantiques countryside – oui, Camping Le Saillet is an outdoorsy kind of site. There's direct access to the river from here for rafting, swimming, paddling, fishing and canoeing, and easy access to hiking, mountain trekking and cycling high up nearby. Walks run alongside the river or up to the sanctuary of Bétharram Caves in nearby Lourdes. If you do want to kick back around base, Camping Le Saillet has a pool, playground, deckchairs and regular creative activities such as pottery. There's also a snack bar with covered terrace and grassed seating area, dishing up regional specialties, cold drinks and regular live music. Among the modern and comfy amenities are shower and toilet block suitable for disabled guests, a launderette and a washing-up area. Shops, bars and restaurants are in the local village, five minutes' walk away.

MIQUEL J. Aug 2024

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: El personal es muy amable y las dimensiones del camping (bastante reducidas, no más de 100 parcelas) lo hacen muy amigable y familiar. La ubicación, entre el río y el pueblo de Lestelle, es muy interesante. En el río se pueden practicar deportes de río, y tanto la piscina (del camping) como el campo de fútbol municipal (del pueblo) son recursos compartidos. Nos gustó mucho ver entrenar una tarde al equipo de fútbol local. Otro día también vino un pastelero del pueblo a ofrecer sus productos a los usuarios del camping. El bar-terraza es tranquilo y las dimensiones de la piscina suficientes para lo que andábamos buscando. Es ideal para relajarte o hacer pequeñas excursiones como la de las cuevas de Betharram o la ciudad de Pau. En verano hay fiestas locales en algunos pueblos vecinos. Nosotros pudimos ir a las de Nay (con bastante presupuesto en atracciones y conciertos). Ahí contrasta el ambiente con el de algunos pueblos que, sin estar en fiestas, tienen poca vidilla/ambiente en la calle comparado con los pueblos de Catalunya, Euskal Herria o España en verano (y solo nos separan los Pirineos :-D).

Disliked: En las duchas habría agradecido un poco más de presión del agua y que algunas cuenten con lo que llamamos "alcachofa" de ducha para sostener en la mano (pomme de douche) para una higiene corporal más fácil.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: The campsite owners were very friendly and kind. They advise us of the different children activities and things to do in the local area the caves and kayaking on the rapids was well worth it. We enjoyed a live music concert at the restaurant which was really recommended.

Disliked: Our only issue was with the young girl who was supervising the pool she seemed to have a short temper with younger children and didn’t show much compassion to foreign children who didn’t speak French. That aside the pool was great and a simple understanding was easily resolved.

Local attractions

Several walking routes start nearby from Camping Le Saillet, including scenic ones along the river and one up to the sanctuary of Lourdes's Bétharram caves, the series of caverns near Asson, Saint-Pé-de-Bigorre and the site's local commune of Lestelle-Bétharram. A walk of almost three kilometres underground covers the levels dug into the mountain by the flowing river. Another excellent local option is Pau, the Pyrenees city with spectacular and famed views across the mountains. Also in town are the medieval monument of the Château de Pau, housing a national museum that's one of the most visited in France; Beaumont Park, a top picnic spot shaded by centenarian trees; the fine arts museum, with works from the fifteenth to twentieth centuries including by Rubens and Degas; the hillside Pavillon des Arts exhibition space, and several festivals running throughout the year. Nearby Lourdes is one of the most visited pilgrimage sites in the world and the most visited place in France after Paris. Across the bridge from the town centre and surrounded by extensive gardens is the Sanctuary of Our Lady of Lourdes, with churches, chapels and crypts including the huge and mostly underground Basilica of St Pius X, able to accommodate up to 25,000 people.
