French Campsites Open Year-Round

Great things to do at any time of year 

Immerse yourself in nature

Our campsites bookable all year round offer interesting flora and fauna and beautiful landscapes which differs depending on when you visit. Visit the Landes de Gascogne Regional Natural Park in the winter months to enjoy the beautiful pine forest and eco-museum. In the summer, take a swim in the lagoons and look out for different bird species.

Do outdoor activities

The south of France boasts a mild climate and lots of sunshine, making it a great place to get some vitamin D at any time of year. Lots of our open-air resorts are near the coast. In our opinion, the waters of the Mediterranean never really get too cold for a dip or some sailing or kayaking, but others prefer long walks on the beach or along the stunning coastal paths during winter. The great thing about the Mediterranean coast is that the hills are so nearby too – so autumn and winter hikes in the mountains with stunning coastal views are aplenty.

Seize year-round opportunities for adventure

For those looking for adventure or keen to try a new activity together as a family, there are a lot of adrenaline sports and activities you can do all year in France. Choose from sailing, kayaking, rock climbing, horse riding, mountain biking, road biking and more.

Mix outdoor activities with cultural activities and sightseeing

Choose from a large range of campsites open all year round, based on your desired location, accommodation type or the activities you have planned. Campsites located near larger cities like Nice, Toulouse, or Marseille, are a good choice during the off season as there are interesting museums and other indoor activities available too.

Enjoy events in all seasons

France is a country full of traditions and seasonal events, so you can plan a holiday around an event. In winter, you could visit the Festival of Lights in Lyon or the Christmas Market in Toulouse, or in the summer watch the Tour de France and be live the atmosphere and excitement of one of the most famous international sporting events.

Discover new and unique accommodation types

Pitching a tent or taking the campervan might be your first thought when it comes to camping. While this is perfect in the summer months, there is a range of different accommodation types that may be cosier for other months. These include mobile homes, cottages and chalets, ranging from one to three bedrooms.

Benefits of expanding your planning to cover the whole year 

Increased flexibility makes it easier to plan

We know your free time can fill up quickly and it can be hard to find time when the whole family is available for that much-needed holiday. Get the flexibility you need to book your trip, without being confined to the peak holiday season, by selecting a campsite that is open all year round. As well as finding it easier to get everyone to agree to dates, you’re likely to find it easier to find the accommodation your want available.

See the sights without the crowds

Choosing a less popular month for your trip means fewer people and more space to yourself. Enjoy smaller queues at theme parks like Futuroscope, located near several campsites open all year round. Or select a campsite near a town like Montpellier and enjoy the sights without crowds, like the Cathédrale St-Pierre and Château de Flaugergues.

Mark a special occasion

Have an occasion or birthday to celebrate? Plan your trip over that special day, instead of waiting for the summer to celebrate. Surprise someone or treat yourself to a burst of fresh air at any time of year.

Open up your options on a longer trip

If you are travelling for a month or year, or are planning to be on the road indefinitely, it can be stressful trying to plan your accommodation, with many options only open or available in high season. Campsites and open-air resorts open all year round offer you accommodation choices at any time of year, at reasonable prices.
