I can recommend this one. The village of Grignan is within walking distance and the site is central for sightseeing.

Provence covers a large and very popular area of France.

There are loads of good campsites. Which particular part of Provence do you want to visit.

Sorry for late reply been away. The georges du tarn was fantastic. Did some white water rafting which was superb. Visited the Lavender fields which was also a fantastic sight. Some wonderful walks with great views. Would recommend it. We are off to the Dordogne in July 07. Never been before, looking forward to it. Booked my ferry and on countdown already. Any info would be appreciated.

Have you thought about the Lot - really very beautiful, less touristy than the Dordogne but with similar scenery.  We found the people much more open, maybe because there weren't hoards of brits for them to deal with!   It is about an hour or so further south than the dordogne, but worth it I think.  Can't recommend campsites though as we stayed in a Chateau (lovely !)  Jackie
