Description
A taste of Provence in Avignon.
The scrublands, the vineyards, the cork oak forests, the rugged hinterland where cicadas serenade, although still in the region of the Gard, Provencal France begins here. Avignon has a rich tradition of craftsmanship, colourful markets and an accent that sings in the breeze.
What makes this site appealing :
Daytime shuttle bus service into Avignon from outside the campsite in July & August - free for guests staying in our rented accommodation or our campers who are staying for a minimum of a week.
The campsite shuttle takes guests to the stations and airport for an extra charge. Prior booking necessary.
