General information
Alternative and colourful campsite by a river
Looking for something different? Remember Bohemian, the seventies, flea markets, Ibiza effect? If so, you’re in absolutely the right place at this colourful campsite by a small river. There are also two lovely swimming pools at Medrose campsite. The reception and restaurant are housed in an old stone schoolhouse. This is the heart of Medrose campsite. Munch your way through a pizza from the wood-burning oven or enjoy a drink on the terrace under old chestnut trees. You can regularly listen to live music in the evenings. There are lovely views from the campsite of the ancient village of Saint-Thomé that nestles against the hillside. Modest entertainment on the campsite.Modest entertainment on the campsite
River L’Escoutay flows past Medrose campsite, and the children can have fun making dams here. Put your chair next to them with its legs in the water and keep your feet wonderfully cool. You can sit there all day if you want. You can’t swim in the shallow water, but you can in one of the campsite’s two swimming pools. There is a separate children’s pool for the youngest ones, and there are colourful chairs and sun loungers next to the pools. There is also a bouncy castle for small children, and they are sure to make friends here. The campsite is located in the middle of the countryside and various walking and cycling paths pass by the site. You can take part in an organised walk in high season. Peace prevails on the campsite, but Medrose campsite comes alive in the evening. The trees are lit up and it’s party time on the terrace.You can do your shopping in the nearby town of Saint-Thomé. There is a larger supermarket in Viviers which is a 10 minute drive away. You can of course get fresh bread on the campsite every morning, and you can enjoy a delicious meal every evening in the campsite restaurant.
