CosyCamp is an environmentally-friendly campsite, located near the village of Chamalières-sur-Loire in Haute-Loire on the banks of the Loire Sauvage. Come and live a glamping experience in a 4.5 hectare botanical garden where cars are not allowed. Large pitches, upscale atypical accommodation, a wellness area, outdoor swimming pools, swimming in the Loire, canoeing, games and bicycles available, and campfires. In short: everything you need for an exquisite holiday.

Forested area on the Loire

CosyCamp is in a stunning forested area, right on the Loire. You'll find one nature reserve after the other in the area. The campsite is in between three French pearls: the regional nature reserve Livradois-Forez, regional nature reserve of Pilat, and the Monts d'Ardèche nature reserve. The campsite grounds are all about nature too. They have been designed with an emphasis on the relationship between people and nature. Totally environmentally-friendly. You'll find botanical gardens here, with the most extensive flora, and all the buildings are made from untreated wood.

Environmentally-friendly glamping

All of the rentals are also designed with conservation in mind. Don't be afraid that you'll have to spend the night in a small wooden hut, though. CosyCamp has the look of a luxury campsite. With very special rentals, including treehouses, lodges and gypsy wagons, you can definitely consider this 'glamping'. The pitches are spacious: the smallest is no less than 100 m².

Fresh, local food

At CosyCamp, simple, local and environmentally-friendly food is served. In the organic kitchen, they make their hamburgers from cows from the Haute-Loire, and every day, there's a special on the menu from the region. You can also have breakfast in the communal dining room, and order picnic baskets with fresh local produce.

Campsite accepts ACSI Club ID

Liked - Dieser Campingplatz ist so unglaublich durchdacht und liebe- und geschmackvoll gestaltet mit sehr vielen einfallsreichen Ideen und alles sehr sauber und angenehm!
Besonders für Familien ist es perfekt und das Personal ist unglaublich aufmerksam und freundlich!
Der Kletterpark über den Fluss ist der Wahnsinn und für die ganz Kleinen gibt es Tiere zum Streicheln!
Außerdem ist die Küche sehr gut und es wird biologisch angebautes Gemüse zum Kaufen angeboten;
Vor allem die angebotenen Unterkünfte sind ein Traum und man sollte früh buchen, sonst bekommt man kaum einen Platz!
