Has anyone stayed at Beau Rivage at Pont-d'arc?

or Le moulin Indigo at st Martin d'ardeche?

or Le Bel Ete in Anduze?

Trying to find somewhere that matched Bel Ombrage which was just perfect for us last year.Large pitches by the river, beautiful views and quiet at night!!

We really want a riverside pitch so have Domaine de gil and Le Val de L'arre on hold for last 2 weeks of August

Ah yes Bel Ombrage just ticked all those 'boxes' especially with  the river Ceou which is why we want to find something similar where the children 4,7 and 9 can play in and perhaps canoe. We did all canoe last year but the Dordogne is like custard compared to the Ardeche and the little one will be  too young.

We dont really want lots of 'animations' or organised entertainment just a small site with river,pool, views and village within walking distance.

Zoover reviews are all good for the above sites so I might just have to put all names in a hat and......

   HI we have stayed at Le Moulin Indigo [ St Martin] a couple of times and realy like it there. From what you have said it should be near perfect, up until two years ago the site used to be a municipal, The new owners have improved it greatly with new sanitary block swimming pool etc. Its only a two minute walk to the small town or across the bridge to the next, paddling fishing, canoeing etc. Hope this helps, have a good holiday,

Thankyou everyone so much for responding.

This forum is so fantastic.For the last 5 weeks my kitchen table has been covered in maps of France,guide books and piles and piles of A4 print outs of campsite reviews from ukcs and zoover.

I have a shortlist of 6.That's not a shortlist is it!!

 Last year was the same but towards the end it was only between Bel Ombrage and Le Capeyrou and it was a tough decision but thanks to essexmum who led the way and the following reviews we made the best choice.

Hope I'm not the only one who takes so long to decide!!

  Hi Bridie might just do that, don t forget to take a fan.

  Have a good one,!

  I know what you mean Bridie, but you have to have a little faith ! The weather down there cannot be as bad as early june last year on cote d azur, can it ????

  Steve

I do hope not as we're down there from about 18th bto 22nd June before we wander back up!!

What outfit are you in ?

  Hi bridie we are in a autotrail apache with two small schnauzers for company, we will probably arrive two or three days after you leave, still never mind there is always next year.

  Happy holiday
