Le Camp started as a small and stylish family run business. We intend to keep it this way. Green, wooded and undulating, Le Camp is large enough to offer space and privacy whilst still maintaining an intimate, exclusive feel. We are located in one of France’s most beautiful and unspoilt regions, with stunning and uninterrupted views over the Aveyron valley. You will find us about one hour North East of Toulouse. (maps.google.co.uk/maps/ms).
Le Camp offers a complete holiday experience. Each of our six tented retreats is surrounded by plenty of private space and so there is a great appeal to stay in and relax. However, the local area also offers so many things to do, it is impossible to fit it all in. If peace and quiet is what you are looking for, you will certainly find it here. If your children are looking for holiday friends, they will find them here. You can relax knowing they are safe whilst they paddle on the beach, bounce on the trampoline, run around or have fun in the play area. Freedom to roam. No cars. No rules.

The Showerhouse
The showerhouse was designed and built by us, entirely from local wood. Sitting amongst the oaks, it is a unique indoor / outdoor shower experience. Light, airy and warmed by the sun, the individual shower rooms are spacious and comfortable. We provide beautifully scented locally made (St Antonin) organic toiletries as we recycle the grey (used) water for irrigation.

The Summer Kitchen
Make a cup of tea, have a barbeque, or cook up a feast. This is your own fully equipped indoor / outdoor kitchen and a chance to self cater in style. With a fridge and individual cooking station for each family, here you can comfortably cook alongside other guests and share your favourite recipe over a glass of wine. Help yourself to fresh herbs from our potagere. Eat outside under the shady pergola or prepare a picnic to enjoy by the river.
We have designed the summer kitchen to be a home from home experience. It has dishwashers, sharp knives, and all the utensils, pots, pans, bowls, cutlery, plates and glasses you could need. If you need a splash of vinegar, a dash of oil, or a pinch of salt, you will find that we’ve provided this too.

Natural Swimming Pool
Our natural swimming pond is one of the first in France. Cleansed only using gravels and plants it is a unique chance to swim with nature in the purest of water. The perfect place to relax and watch the butterflies, frogs and dragonflies that are attracted by the fresh water and vegetation.
Our swimming pond has been carefully designed for everyone to enjoy. At 20 metres long, serious swimmers can really get going. The beach and its surrounding rocks and plants is a wonderful, natural environment for kids. Dive off the pontoon, hear the frogs’ chorus, or snooze under a tree on the day bed whilst listening to the water. Your kids won’t want to get out. Not that it matters, because with absolutely no chemicals, you can rest assured that the water won’t harm their delicate skin or our fragile world.

For kids ...
Plentiful toys and games, places to hide, sand pit, trampoline, badminton, petanque, tree swing and a giant haystack. Come and feed the pigs or hide in the woods. Search for fossils, collect stag beetles or hunt for glow worms. Le Camp is a safe place for them to run wild, make friends and be themselves.
