Whether you come as a family, as a couple or with friends, we have just one thing to say: welcome to Camping Les Peupliers!
A Family Campsite 13 Minutes from Pradons, Surrounded by Ardèche Nature
On 4.8 hectares planted with trees, beside the river and close to Vogüé, we run a small-scale 3-star campsite: 67 touring pitches and 33 rental units.
We look after our campsite near Pradons like our own home, and we love welcoming you like old friends. Here, far from large anonymous resorts, everyone has their place and quickly feels at ease, just like at home.
What makes us proudest? Seeing holidaymakers arrive with their minds still at the office. Then, day after day, they unwind, until they greet each other and share an aperitif with their neighbours. Between the peaceful setting and the birdsong in spring, it’s impossible to stay tense for long!
Slow Down, Between Lazy Days and Fresh Air
Keep busy, or do nothing at all? Here, nobody rushes you, and we are always on hand for any advice or request.
In the morning, you savour the silence. In the afternoon, between a swim in the river or the pool, a nap in the shade and a walk along our favourite trails, the hours drift by with the flow of the water.
We cherish this peaceful pace as much in high season as in the quieter periods of the year.

Pools for young and old!
Everything nearby, on foot or by bike
4.5 ha of flat, quiet land
The River on Your Doorstep, a Natural Playground
Fancy some fishing? Brown trout bite in the clear, lively water, as long as you have a fishing licence. For little ones, we happily recommend the supervised sandy beaches of Vogüé, on foot, or those of Balazuc, a short bike ride away.
Our greatest source of pride is our private, direct access to the Ardèche river. It runs along the full width of the campsite, with no road or path to cross, something few campsites offer.
That is why so many families choose our campsite close to Pradons! On our riverbank, you cool off in the hottest hours and spread out your picnic blanket, while the children splash about freely where the water is shallow.
Valérie and Alain’s view: “When people ask us our secret, the answer never changes: the river, all to yourselves! Our regulars come back, among other things, for those moments on the flat stones, feet in the water. They chat about everything, or simply let go, while keeping an eye on the children. We never tire of these timeless moments.”

Choose Your Accommodation Near Pradons: From Mobile Home to Gîte
Finding the spot that suits you is what we enjoy most at reception. A tent in the shade of the trees or a fully equipped rental: you are sure to find what you are looking for, and we are here to guide you!
To meet every wish, we offer several options at our campsite near Pradons. For fans of traditional camping, we provide pitches of 80 to 100 m² for tents, caravans, vans or motorhomes. We also offer XXL pitches of around 160 m², which comfortably fit up to 8 people and are ideal for long stays. As for rentals, our mobile homes sleep 1 to 6 people, all with a terrace, in four ranges (Éco, Classique, Confort and Supérieur). Our solid-built chalets also offer real comfort for up to 6 people, terrace included. Finally, for a more traditional atmosphere, we have set up two gîtes in an authentic Ardèche house, on the edge of the campsite, full of character.
A welcome bonus: we have recently renovated two thirds of our sanitary facilities. Modern and spotless, they add real comfort to our camping pitches!
A word from Alain: “Over the seasons, we have seen how much easier family life becomes when you can arrive and leave on any day, even in midsummer. So we apply this everywhere, for pitches and rentals alike, with no fixed changeover day. Plan your holiday around your life, not the other way round!”
Infinity Pool and Paddling Pool: Cool Off Without Leaving the Campsite
How about a refreshing dip without even leaving the campsite? We open our aquatic area with a large infinity pool measuring 20 by 10 metres to you.
Little ones, meanwhile, enjoy our separate paddling pool, 40 cm deep, which is easy to keep an eye on from the sun loungers.
Unusual for a 3-star campsite, our large pool is perfect both for swimming lengths and for simply lazing around. Meanwhile, others stretch out in the sun on the wide pool decks, beneath the Ardèche sky.
A word from Valérie: “Our pool is huge, and its lovely tiling earns it plenty of compliments! What delights me is hearing people say, as they get out, that it hardly tastes of chlorine. We wanted a pool worthy of the rest of the campsite, and it really shows!”
