Flower Camping Le Château is a beautiful campsite with a peaceful location on the edge of the village of Hauterives in the Drôme. Hauterives is best known for the famous Palais Idéal du Facteur Cheval. The campsite is built next to a beautiful 17th century castle. The campsite also has a good restaurant and a large outdoor swimming pool.

Attractive camping fields

This campsite consists for a large part of circular camping fields separated by hedges, trees and bushes. Most of the pitches therefore offer plenty of shade and privacy. The touring pitches are mainly situated at the front part of the campsite. There are also rental accommodations: from hiker's huts with only basic facilities to fully equipped mobile homes. There is also an old Airstream caravan with an unusual interior.

Large outdoor swimming pool

Central to this campsite is a large heated outdoor swimming pool and a large paddling pool. A lovely place to swim laps or cool off on hot days. Moreover, you can let your children do as they please, as there is always a lifeguard present. Swimming is also sometimes possible in the small river that runs alongside the campsite.

Varied entertainment programmes

In the high season, there is plenty of entertainment at the campsite. Sports tournaments, horse and pony rides, themed evenings, shows, games and karaoke nights are just some of the activities on offer. The activities mainly take place in the extremely attractive castle garden.

Eating out at the campsite

Restaurant L'AuthentiK is located in one of the castle's outbuildings. The menu includes pizzas, salads and meat dishes. The terrace in the courtyard is a pleasant place to enjoy your meal.

€17 per night during lowseason

The emplacement was great a circular area good for the friends evenings. The staff were friendly and very helpful. For the area the shops and attractions all were within short walking distance.

Liked - zwembad(en) dichtbij, geschikt voor baantjes trekken maar ook voor jonge kinderen. Keurig onderhouden camping met rijke, wisselende vegetatie. Mooi wandelgebied. Schuin tegenover ligt een grote Intermarché, ideaal! Bakkers dichtbij en al open vanaf 6.00u.
Disliked - Zwembad. Nette , mooie camping.

Liked - De vriendelijke eigenaren en de omgeving
Disliked - Dat het zwembad pas om 13.00 uur open gaat omdat het een gemeente zwembad is, en die verdiend ook we wat onderhoud. Water was super niet veel chloor en lekkere temperatuur

Travelling party: Family with children, 4 – 12 years

Liked - The tent and pitch: lot's of space, green and private
Animation: our son loved the mini-disco and the morningactivities
Activities: we had enough activities in the area that were great for a family with young child.
Disliked - Some nights the music went on longer than expected. And the last night there seemed to be a concert or something in a village in the area, that started in the middle of the night and ended early in the morning.
