My family always went to Cavalaire Sur Mer. Great place and 2 good camp sites, I think they are Camping de la baie and Camping la Pinede. There are also some nice sites just outside Cavalaire and one with a big pool and near a beautiful little beach, but can't remember it's name.

Good luck

My wife & i stayed ay Buregard Sud at Marseillan Plage for 3 weeks in June,absolute quality,going back next year,our pitch was 25 yards from beach,no club or pool on site..........BLISS.

We love Languedoc but have been caught up in the mistral and experienced heavy rain, lightening and flooding! We were told that this is expected every summer and lasts around 3-4 days.This occured mainly at night and didn't affect our day time at all.The rest of the holiday was fantastic - hot weather, gorgeous beaches and wonderful places to visit inland. I'd go back very year if it weren't for the fact I can't drive and OH needs a year to get over the long haul! Claire

We'll the New Year is almost upon us and we wish you all well for 2007 and beyond! As the Turkey has almost gone and there are only a few beers left in the fridge it's probably time to start planning the summer vacation - this year we fancy France and that's why I have tagged on this thread rather than start a new!

So here goes, we would like to go down to the South of France this year (2007), adjacent to a sandy beach, in our a motor home. Many of you are talking about Port Grimaud, is there a specific web site for this camp site, does it cater for motor homes?

Is there any companies, web sites that allow us to compile a complete package i.e. Ferry, Trip Itinerary, such as overnight stay on route, etc...? Not that I'm lazy, it would give us a comparison of costs against doing it all ourselves if you see what I mean. 

Once again many thanks for your help and have a great New Year

Hi

Are you looking to take your own tent or hire a mobile home?

We own a mobile home in Frejus:www.freewebs.com/samandmandys or our campsite also has camping pitches:www.holiday-green.com

If you'd like any help,give us a shout.

What exactly do you mean by cater for motorhomes? I have never seen a site that does not have motorhomes. The only thing you have to watch in the South of France is that some of the pitches can be sandy which makes it difficult for a heavy vehicle to get on and off the pitches. The area around Port Grimaud should be OK as the sand consists of a degree of shale which makes the pitches firmer. There are quite a few campsites along the south coast of France that have access to the beach. Please feel free to e-mail me for info on he sites I have visited.
