This site is now part of the Yelloh Village group, and standards on their sites are consistently high - Camping La Plage du Dramont is no exception. Check-in was efficient, and English was spoken; there is a large waiting area, and once you pass through the initial barrier, you will then be given directions to your pitch. There are 113 touring pitches, which have electric hook-up points available. These are generally open plan, under tree shade, but very dry and dusty due to the Mediterranean climate.
Les Tournels is a large site set on a hillside and pitches have panoramic views of the Gulf of Saint Tropez and Pampelonne beach. The hillside is covered in parasol pines and old olive trees. Of the 890 pitches, 457 are available for touring. They are reasonably level and shady, of variable size, all with electricity and many also with water and waste water drainage. The swimming pool, play area, shop and bar may be some distance away. The site has a superb new spa centre with gym, sauna and jacuzzi, with an excellent pool alongside, all reserved for over 18s, and a new restaurant with a large terrace. Competitions and shows are organised for adults and children in July and August.
Near the Verdon Gorges and just moments from the turquoise waters of Lake Sainte Croix, Camping L’Oasis du Verdon is a welcoming, family-run retreat where nature, comfort, and genuine human connection come together. Spread across three hectares of lush, flower-filled, and beautifully shaded grounds—an uncommon treasure in Provence, the campsite offers 104 pitches of which 52 are touring pitches, which are well defined and spacious (80-130m2).
Sandaya Douce Quiétude is just a 10-minute drive from the sandy beaches at Saint Raphaël and Agay (with campsite shuttle transport) but is quietly situated at the foot of the Estérel Massif. There are around 440 pitches, 90 for touring units and 260 for fully equipped mobile homes for rent, some with air-conditioning, dishwasher and jacuzzi.
La Baume is a large, busy site about 5.5 km from the long sandy beach of Fréjus-Plage, although with its fine and varied selection of swimming pools many people do not bother to make the trip. The pools, with their palm trees, are remarkable for their size and variety (water slides, etc) – the very large feature pool being a highlight. There is also an aquatic play area, two indoor pools with a slide and the new Armata spa area. The site has 240 adequately sized, fully serviced pitches, separated by hedges and most have shade. Although tents are accepted, the site concentrates mainly on caravanning. It becomes full in season.
Camping Sandaya La Barque is located in Fréjus, on the banks of the Argens river . It's perfect for those looking for a relaxing and fun-filled camping holiday in the south of France. There are 26 touring pitches with electric hook-up points available. Most are spacious and shaded, and many have a view of the pool or the river.
La Pansard is a large site with 400 pitches and direct access to the beach. With a mix of mobile homes and touring pitches, most of the touring areas are located around the beach area and under shady pine trees. The pitches are sandy and of average size (80-100 sq.m) but suffer from a lack of suitably placed electrical connections and water points. Some pitches will require extremely long leads. The site has good sports facilities and a comprehensive small supermarket. There is a large separate car park area for boats. Some English is spoken. This stretch of coast is very sheltered with a shallow beach safe for swimming.
Camp du Domaine is located along the coast just outside the town of Bormes and is 3 km. south of Le Lavandou. The same family has run this large, attractive beachside site for 70 years. With 1040 touring pitches, 957 of which are level and have 10/16A electricity, you can pitch either in the shade in one of the pine forests or the most popular pitches beside the beach with a sea view. Pitches are generous (80-150sqm), but those located furthest from the beach are the largest with more shade. There are also 280 mobile homes/bungalows to rent situated on the hillside with superb views.
Camping Sandaya Rivièra d’Azur is an excellent site near the Côte d’Azur that will take you away from the Mediterranean coast's bustle. Spread out over ten hectares, this is a well-equipped holiday destination with pitches arranged along avenues. The 188 touring pitches average 100 sq.m. in size, and all have electricity connections and, unusually, private sanitary facilities (although washbasins double as dishwashing sinks). There are 340 accommodation units for rent, most of which were installed after ongoing investment by the owners. There is a free shuttle to the beach at Saint Aygulf.
This is a large, modern site with excellent Eco credentials. Access is very easy; reception is modern and very efficient in most European languages. The site has a large selection of properties to rent and 300 touring pitches. All pitches have E.H.U. and a freshwater tap, pitches are large and separated by low hedges, all have tree shade, and the site is level, offering good access for all. The site provides a cycle hire service, and you can cycle to the beaches of St. Agulf in under 15 minutes, or if you wish, there is also a regular water taxi straight from the site to the beach. An alternative is to relax around the beautiful pool and bar area.
Les Pêcheurs will appeal to families who appreciate natural surroundings with many activities, cultural and sporting. Interspersed with mobile homes and cabins, the 110 good sized touring pitches (10A electricity) are separated by trees and flowering bushes. The Provençal-style buildings are delightful, especially the bar, restaurant and games room with its terrace down to the river and the site’s own canoe station (locked gate). Across the road is a lake with a sandy beach and restaurant. Enlarged spa facilities include a swimming pool, a large jacuzzi, massage, a steam pool and a sauna (some charges apply).
Les Lauriers Roses is an attractive, small site with up-to-date facilities and the emphasis on comfort and relaxation. Steeply terraced over two hectares with views of the Mediterranean, it is owned by a friendly Dutch family who will personally site caravans on some of the more challenging areas of the site. There are 83 pitches (67 for touring units with 6A electricity) of a good size, the majority set out on individual terraces. Units over 7.5 m. and twin-axle caravans are not accepted. Good English is spoken. A peaceful, comfortable site, there is a large, heated outdoor swimming pool with an adjoining bar and restaurant area.
This is a traditional campsite in the Var region of France by the side of the Argens River, a beautiful and relaxing location where you can swim, canoe, or go fishing. On site, there are 61 grassy, level pitches that have water and 10A electricity. A nice mixture of deciduous trees provides natural shade. If you are fortunate enough, the best pitches are located right by the river. The campsite is located down a private lane, and as you enter, you will see the Old Mill, which contains the reception and well-stocked shop. The site facilities are also in this area, and English is spoken. Although the site is in a secluded, quiet location, you are only 10 km from the nearest sandy beach and the railway station at Frejus.
Port Pothuau is a delightful site and a warm welcome is assured from the owners. Of its 380 pitches, 80 are available for touring units. All on grass with dividing hedges, they are a good size and include some serviced pitches. There is a large swimming pool complex, a good value bar and restaurant offering a wide choice of local dishes and a superb on-site supermarket. There is a little aircraft noise from the local airport but it is not intrusive. A large parking area makes check-in easy. Good English is spoken.
Holiday Green is seven kilometres inland from Fréjus. It is a large, modern campsite with a fantastic view of the red massif of Esterel – very impressive as you arrive. The site is vast and has been developed on a hillside. Access is very good, and the site operates a one-way system. This is undoubtedly a resort rather than a site with 600 mobile homes and just 15 pitches for caravans or motorhomes. There is plenty of shade and 6/13A electricity available.
This site in the Mediterranean countryside is very much geared for family holidays with children. Some 20 minutes on foot from the beach, the site has a very large and well kept pool area and a stage for entertainment. Somewhat smaller than other sites of this type, there are 122 good sized pitches (61 for touring units). The ground is mainly level, if rather stony and sandy. Variable shade is available and all pitches have 10A electricity. There are plans to enlarge some of the smaller, 80 sq.m. pitches. The attractive pool is surrounded by ample paved sunbathing areas.
Les Pinèdes is 7 km. inland from the busy coast, at the centre of all the attractions of the Côte d’Azur, yet far enough away to be a peaceful retreat at the end of a busy day. Run by the third generation of family owners, the site is terraced on a wooded hillside where olives and vines used to grow. All 108 touring pitches are level and have electricity (6-10A), most also with water and they are separated by low bushes. There are also 41 mobile homes and chalets available to rent. In May the evenings are alive with fireflies.
Located just a short drive from the stunning Côte d'Azur, Camping Lou Cabasson offers a perfect family getaway. Enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the countryside while being conveniently located near the sandy beaches of the Mediterranean. On-site, there are 38 touring pitches, of which electric hook-up points are available.
This little jewel of a site is in a pleasant setting and the intervening wooded area seems to give it sufficient screening to make the campsite itself quite peaceful. It is only 5 km. from the beaches at Cogolin and Saint Tropez, so its position is handy for one of the showplaces of the Riviera, but away from the hustle and bustle of the beach resorts. There are 150 good sized touring pitches (out of 248 with the others used for mobile homes to rent). All have electricity (6-10A) although long leads may be necessary. The site is very well maintained.
Camping Saint-Lazare is a small traditional French campsite conveniently located 15 minutes from Lac de Sainte-Croix and 30 minutes from the Gorges du Verdon, making it an ideal campsite for day trips to see the sights. The charming village of Aups, known for its truffles and Provençal markets, is also nearby. On-site, there are 45 touring pitches with electric hook-up points available. Pitches are delimited by hedging and are well-shaded by mature olive, acacias, and mulberry bushes.

Côte d'Azur
The sleepy villages, sunny vineyards and pretty lavender fields of Provence sit in stark contrast to the cosmopolitan towns and thronging beaches of the Côte d’Azur, one of France’s most popular destinations
The glittering Côte d’Azur, perhaps better known as the French Riviera, is a beautiful stretch of coast studded with sophisticated towns such as the famous Monte Carlo, Nice, and Cannes, not forgetting the other famous and arguably the most glamorous resort of St Tropez. With its vast golden sandy beaches and long lazy hours of sunshine, this is a paradise for sun worshippers and water sports enthusiasts. It’s a spectacular coast of rugged coves and warm seas. The quaint harbours and fishing villages have become chic destinations, now full of pleasure yachts, harbour-side cafés and crowded summertime beaches. Inland, St Paul-de-Vence, with its shops and galleries, and Grasse, the perfume capital of the world, are popular destinations for visitors, surrounded by the Provençal lavender fields and shady olive groves that fill the air with a magical scent at certain times of the year.
