Camping Le pré Saint André

Camping Le Pré Saint André is a family-run 3-star campsite tucked into the fragrant garrigue and vineyards of the Gard region, perfectly positioned between the Cévennes mountains and the Mediterranean Sea, just minutes from Sommières and within easy reach of Nîmes and Montpellier.

This shaded, peaceful retreat spans about 1.7 hectares and offers a welcoming, authentic atmosphere where you can relax under rustling oaks and sip your morning coffee while cicadas sing. The campsite caters to all styles of outdoor stays: from well-sized grassy pitches ideal for camping tents, caravans, and motorhomes to a variety of rental accommodations including mobile homes, air-conditioned chalets, yurts, and canvas bungalows — perfect whether you’re planning a romantic getaway or a family adventure.

New premium pitches now bring a top-tier camping experience with individual water supply, electricity hook-ups, and wastewater disposal, giving motorhome and caravan guests added comfort and convenience.

At the heart of the site lies a heated swimming pool and paddling pool, where you can unwind on sun loungers under the Southern sun. Children will adore the playgrounds, trampoline, and games room with table football and ping-pong, while sports lovers can enjoy courts for volleyball, football, pétanque, and more.

The on-site snack bar and restaurant “Le Lavoir” serve local specialties, pizzas, and seasonal meals — ideal after a refreshing swim or bike ride. Additional services like a grocery point, laundry, barbecue zones, and free Wi-Fi make extended stays effortless and enjoyable.

Nestled at the gateway to Sommières, this campsite places you close to the best of Southern France’s culture and nature. The charming medieval town of Sommières — just about 4 km away — invites you to wander its cobblestone streets, browse its markets, and sample local wines and gastronomy.

History buffs will love exploring Nîmes, roughly 25 km from the campsite, where extraordinary Roman monuments like the Arena of Nîmes and the Maison Carrée stand proudly. For even deeper immersion into French heritage, the elegant town of Uzès — an easy day trip — features lively weekly markets and the magnificent Duché d’Uzès. A short 30-minute drive brings you to the Mediterranean beaches at Le Grau-du-Roi, perfect for sunbathing, swimming, and seaside dining.

Outdoor lovers are spoiled for choice: peaceful riverside spots for swimming or picnicking, vineyard trails for hiking and cycling, and scenic countryside routes that reveal the natural beauty of the Gard landscape.

Camping Le Pré Saint André is open seasonally from mid-April through mid-October, making it ideal for spring, summer, and autumn escapes. The campsite speaks French and English at reception, and while a car is recommended for exploring the area, the friendly team can point you toward local transport options and highlights.

Wi-Fi is available on site, though speeds may vary across the property, and some facilities like the mini-market may operate seasonally — so it’s wise to plan ahead for essentials. Pets are generally welcome, making this a great choice for dog-friendly holidays, and child-friendly infrastructure ensures little ones stay happily occupied.

Remember to bring seasonal essentials like insect repellent in summer — a common part of countryside life here — and book early if you’re visiting during peak months to secure the best pitches or rentals. With vineyards, beaches, cultural sites, and charming villages close at hand, Le Pré Saint André provides a balanced blend of relaxation, activity, and local discovery that will make your stay truly memorable.
