Small campsite in France – quiet camping in the Cevennen

Open from 1 April to 30 September

Mas Cauvy is a small, quiet campsite in France, located in the Cevennes, for travellers looking for space, calm and a personal welcome.
No crowds and no big facilities – just a human-scale campsite where camping goes back to what matters: nature, simplicity and attention.

Ideal if you want a slower holiday in the South of France, away from busy resorts.

What do we mean by a small campsite in France?

A small campsite at Mas Cauvy means:

  • a limited number of pitches, spread out naturally across the land
  • no mass tourism and no entertainment programme
  • space to breathe, slow down and truly enjoy outdoor living

The atmosphere stays calm and friendly, with respect for nature and other guests. That’s what makes Mas Cauvy a great choice if you value quiet, simplicity and authenticity.

Camping in the Cevennes

Mas Cauvy sits in a green, open landscape in the Cevennes, between Alès and Anduze.
The region is perfect for walking, cycling and exploring, while the campsite itself remains a peaceful base.

Because we stay small, your connection to nature feels direct and genuine. Here, the Cevennes are not just scenery – they are part of everyday life.

Spacious pitches in a small campsite

On our small campsite, pitches are spacious and not laid out in rigid rows.
Each spot has its own feel: sun or shade, open views or a more sheltered corner among the trees.

This makes camping personal and flexible. If you like variety, you’ll love that no two pitches are the same at Mas Cauvy.

Different ways to stay – one calm atmosphere

Mas Cauvy is a small campsite, but you can choose how you want to stay — always with the same peaceful, nature-first spirit. Camp with your own tent or caravan, or discover our glamping tents. Prefer a room? Our bed & breakfast is on the same quiet property.

Guest reviews of our small campsite in France

Lovely campsite run by very helpful and friendly staff.

PatGoogle - June 2025

Mas Cauvy is a real gem of a site, the ideal holiday location for campers who want peace, space and stunning views. The modern facilities are spotlessly clean with plentiful hot water and a small pool with sunbeds is welcome for cooling off in warm weather. The area abounds with interest whether you want to visit historical towns or walk in the hills. This is camping as it used to be and you are assured a warm welcome from Sophie who speaks perfect English! Highly recommended.

Perfect! We stayed for 3 nights before heading back to UK. Sanitary facilities immaculate, only the birdsong to wake up to. We will return
