In the south of the French Ardèche, directly situated along a river with the same name, you will find RCN la Bastide and Ardèche. The well maintained family campsite has spacious and well maintained camping pitches. There is lots of entertainment for children, because apart from the entertainment team, the campsite also has sports fields, table tennis tables and a swimming pool with water chute. Furthermore, you can also swim in the Ardèche river, where a sandy beach is laid out in the summer months.

A piece of the Netherlands in France

At the reception you are warmly welcomed by the RCN staff or the park managers. At the front of the campsite are all facilities such as the camping shop, swimming pool and restaurant. A bit further on you will find the mobile homes and beyond this the camping pitches. You have a choice of standard or comfort pitches with an average camping size of some 100 m2. There are two sanitary buildings on the campsite; the large central building is the latest. As a result it looks very neat and well kept, as does the rest of the campsite.

Swimming pool with water slide

The entertainment team is very active with a daily entertainment programme for young and old. However, even without this team there are ample activities on the campsite: a sports field, table tennis table and jeu-de-boule pitch. At the front of the campsite is a large swimming pool including toddler pool and water slide.

The French evening sun

Across the swimming pool is the campsite restaurant with a large terrace. Here you can have a delicious meal while enjoying the French evening sun. At the reception you will also find a well-stocked camping shop.
