On the outskirts of Saissac, in the beautiful Languedoc-Roussillon region, you will find the small-scale campsite of La Porte d'Autan. From this ecological campsite you look out over the hills and the snowy peaks of the Pyrenees. The famous castle of Saissac is within walking distance (one kilometre). Do you prefer the quiet life? Then you're in the right place at this campsite!

A campsite with a view

At the reception you will be welcomed by the owners Jean-Louis and Stéphanie. Their campsite is neat and well-maintained. Of particular note is the beautiful panoramic view of the Pyrenees. The size of the pitches varies from medium-large (80 m2) to extremely spacious (300 m2) and the pitches are marked off. You can choose from a spot in the sun or a shady spot. The campsite also rents out nine static caravans.

Cool off

After a long trip, there is nothing better than a dip in the pool. Fortunately, the pool is easy to find: it is located at the front of the campsite, directly behind the reception building. The pool is standard in design, but is well-maintained. The campsite also has a cosy bar and snack bar with a limited menu. There is no supermarket at the campsite, but the grocery store Le Cabas d'Oc is 150 metres down the road.

Workshops and games

The campsite has fun workshops for children every week in high season, but even in low season the little campers won't need to be bored. There are several games, a playground, two miniature horses and even a library. Are you looking for outdoor activities? The area around the campsite is very suitable for hiking.

Een heerlijk rustige camping! Alles wordt netjes gepoetst, zeer vriendelijk onthaal.
Deze camping heeft heel ruime plekken. Ideaal met onze grote tent! We hadden er een prachtig verblijf.

Travelling party: Seniors

Rond pinksteren heerlijk tijd gehad op deze camping, gemiddeld met nog 4 stellen medekampeerders. alléén t kleine toiletgebouw was open. Dat is echter te weinig als er meerdere gasten op de camping staan. Een heerlijk rustige camping, met prachtig uitzicht op de Pyreneen.
Zeker voor herhaling vatbaar.
