Camping Les Dolmens

Camping Les Dolmens is a welcoming, small-scale campsite in the heart of the Gard region. Spreading across 5.5 hectares of preserved garrigue landscape and maintained without pesticides, this peaceful holiday retreat lies on the edge of the protected Natura 2000 area of the Cèze Gorges massif. Here, Mediterranean scents of thyme and pine fill the air, and nature is never more than a few steps away.

With just 58 pitches, the campsite keeps an intimate and friendly atmosphere. Guests can choose from spacious pitches for tents, caravans, and motorhomes, as well as mobile homes and unusual accommodation rentals for those seeking extra comfort. Whether you travel with your own campervan or prefer a fully equipped holiday rental, the setting is calm, green, and ideal for relaxation.

A highlight of Camping Les Dolmens is its two swimming pools, including one that is covered and heated during the off-season — perfect for enjoying a swim even in spring or autumn. In addition, campers benefit from access to three developed river beaches along the Cèze, offering natural swimming spots in a breathtaking environment.

Located at the entrance of the village, the campsite sits in the heart of Méjannes-le-Clap’s renowned sports facilities, one of the official preparation centres for the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the surrounding hiking trails, climbing areas, and cycling routes. Cultural experiences are also part of the charm, with local artists and craftspeople offering workshops in pottery, ceramics, and painting.

New owners, Hervé and Gina, will welcome guests from 28 March 2025, continuing the tradition of a family-friendly campsite where tranquillity, nature, and warm hospitality come together.

Camping Les Dolmens enjoys an exceptional location in Méjannes-le-Clap, in the Gard, at the gateway to the Ardèche. The village itself has developed three river beaches along the Cèze, equipped with picnic tables, pétanque courts, bicycle and horse hitching rails, and parking areas — all just minutes from the campsite.

The site lies within the impressive Cèze Gorges massif, one of the largest protected natural areas in France. Hiking, rock climbing, mountain biking, and canoeing are popular activities here. The nearby Gorges de la Cèze offer crystal-clear water and dramatic limestone landscapes.

Within driving distance, you can explore iconic southern French destinations such as the historic city of Uzès (approx. 30 km), known for its charming market and medieval streets, or the spectacular Pont du Gard (around 45 km), a UNESCO-listed Roman aqueduct. The Ardèche region, famous for its canyon landscapes and canoeing routes, is also easily accessible.

Local restaurants, cafés, and small shops can be found in Méjannes-le-Clap village, within short walking or cycling distance, making it easy to enjoy regional cuisine without needing to travel far.

Camping Les Dolmens is a family-oriented campsite with a calm and nature-focused atmosphere. With only 58 pitches, early booking is recommended, particularly for peak summer months.

The campsite opens for the 2025 season on 28 March. Thanks to the heated indoor pool, stays in spring and autumn remain comfortable. The estate is maintained without pesticides, making it an appealing choice for environmentally conscious travellers.

River access and natural beaches are key highlights, so bringing suitable footwear for rocky riverbeds can be helpful. Outdoor sports enthusiasts will find extensive facilities in and around the village, while those seeking relaxation can enjoy the peaceful Mediterranean surroundings.

Whether you arrive with a motorhome, caravan, tent, or choose a rental accommodation, you’ll experience a unique combination of protected nature, authentic southern French charm, and warm hospitality. Camping Les Dolmens is an ideal base for discovering the Gard and Ardèche regions while enjoying a quiet, friendly campsite atmosphere.
