from 93 reviews Write review

Flower Camping L’Arize is located at the foot of the Pyrenees, in the southern French department of Ariège. At this small campsite you camp in a mountainous and wooded area, on sheltered pitches. You'll mainly meet young families. The small river L'Arize flows through the campsite and is ideal for small children. In the rugged nature you can go hiking or visit caves and castles.

La Bastide-de-Sérou is a village in the north of the Parc Naturel Régional des Pyrénées Ariégeoises, at the foot of the Pyrenees. The campsite is situated slightly below this village, on a sloping road (well passable}, which runs south from La Bastide-de-Sérou.

Natural camping site

The campsite is situated at the edge of a forest and has many shady pitches. Large hedges provide privacy. There are nine special pitches for campers. You can also camp in one of the 25 rental accommodations. In the middle of the campsite are the sanitary facilities, in a building made of stone.

Family camping for nature lovers

Flower Camping L'Arize is a real family campsite. Especially in high season you'll see many young families with children. Also nature lovers are bound to like the campsite. In the mountainous surroundings you can enjoy walking and cycling. The shallow Arize meanders through the campsite and is a great play area for children.

Underground river

The underground river system ‘Rivière Souterraine de Labouiche’ is a fifteen minute drive from the campsite, near the town of Foix. The medieval castle Château de Foix is also worth a visit.

Travelling party: Family with children, 12 - 18 years

Liked - Lovely family run campsite. Peaceful location and considering the situation Europe wide it was very well organised. It would have been nice to get a real sense of the campsite and to have socialised more but these are the times we live in at this time. We genuinely loved it and the surrounding the area, definitely worth the long journey.

Keep up the good work, stay safe and all the best for the future.
Disliked - Swimming pool to small.

Travelling party: Family with children, 12 - 18 years

Liked - Friendly and welcoming owners and staff and we appreciated communication was easy as all understood and spoke English well. Spacious Pitches with good natural divisions and shade (hedges and trees). Great range of different activities, sports equipment and entertainment provided. Friendly helpful staff and generally a good atmosphere throughout the site. Reminded us a lot of our homeland New Zealand. A high level of cleanliness overall including toilet and shower amenities.
Disliked - Additional washing/drying facilities would have helped but we did have a couple of wet and windy fronts come through whilst there. On hot sunny days the pool could be bigger .

Liked - Lovely friendly and helpful owners and staff. Lovely dogs for the children to play with.
Disliked - Not really 4 star services / amenities. Campsite maintenance could have been better. A washed out tent was there for the whole of our week's stay.
