Take a breath, you're in the Drôme des Collines, 1 hour south of Lyon and 2 minutes from the Autoroute du soleil. We welcome you to the Camping le Château in Hauterives, close the Palais Idéal du Facteur Cheval, for a stay full of encounters and discoveries. In the centre of a region with an inexhaustible supply of leisure activities, the campsite offers you the ideal site for your holidays, a natural, calm and family atmosphere, in a historic setting. In the heart of Hauterives, you can stroll through the pretty flower-filled town, take advantage of the village shops and the market with its regional produce. You can enjoy the pleasures of walking, mountain biking or horse-riding on marked trails, or relax by the heated, supervised swimming pool from early June to late August. (Closed on Mondays and Tuesdays in June). To make your holiday even more enjoyable, the campsite team offers sports tournaments, games and themed evenings, not forgetting entertainment for children. Everything you need for a successful stay!

    The site is very well located close to the village and a supermarket. Our pitch had private facilities which were very clean. The picnic table, parasol and clothes airer were useful.

    Accommodation review

    The private facilities were excellent.

    Establishment response :

    Thank you for your kind words. We’re glad you enjoyed the location, the private facilities and the little extras

    Der Platz war sehr ruhig und wir hatten genug Schatten. Die Aufteilung der Stellplätze in „kleine Inseln“ hat uns gut gefallen. Die Wege zu den Gebäuden und Entsorgungsstellen waren generell kurz.

    Establishment

    Wij hadden een prachtige plek met privé sanitair, jacuzzi en een eigen overdekt terras met buitenkeuken.

    Iets meer privacy op deze plek, was aan de achterkant redelijk open bij je sanitair en jacuzzi. Verder mist er iets van verlichting in de jacuzzi hoek en buiten bij je sanitair.

    Accommodation review

    We hebben niet voor niets een week verlengt, het was een heerlijke plek om te relaxen

    De planten die bij de slagboom over de weg hangen en elke keer tegen je auto of caravan aankomen. En de laatste week was het zwembad al dicht terwijl je dan dezelfde prijs moet betalen. Ook het restaurant was mee dicht dan open en had nog maar een zeer beperkte kaart

    Mouthe offre une campagne superbe , beaucoup de chemins de randonnées à pied et en vélo , un petit marché le vendredi matin près de l’église, par contre un village avec peu de commerces mais un bon restaurant dans le centre . À côté et attenant au camping il y a également un bon restaurant , ce qui est très pratique, malheureusement cet établissement ferme fin septembre ! Il est essentiel qu’il soit repris autant pour le camping que pour cette petite station d’hiver. Nous reviendrons, c’est certain , mais seulement quand ce restaurant aura rouvert !

    Les bloc sanitaires pourraient être refaits, ils font leur travail mais sont un peu désuets par rapport à ce camping refait à neuf !

    Accommodation review

    Emplacement suffisamment grand, eau et électricité à proximité

    Les sanitaires très propres mais mériteraient d’être rénovés
