The meeting : The adventure begins at L’Arize campsite in La Bastide-de-S\u00e9rou<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Welcome to the world of L’Arize campsite in La Bastide-de-S\u00e9rou<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our adventure began in 2011 in the Alpes-Maritimes, where our paths crossed. St\u00e9phanie, with 10 years’ experience in thehotel business<\/strong> in the vibrant heart of Nice, met C\u00e9dric, a dental technician in Monaco. This meeting marked the beginning of a beautiful story, that of two lovers of life and simplicity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The arrival of our son Charles was a turning point in our lives. We felt the need to leave the stress of the city behind and offer our family a more natural and serene living environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Changing our lives to get closer to nature was an obvious choice for us. After months of reflection and visits to a number of campsites, chance brought us to Camping L’Arize<\/strong>, nestled in the heart of the splendidAri\u00e8ge<\/strong> countryside. It was love at first sight. The natural beauty of the campsite immediately appealed to us: majestic trees, magnificent flowers, a babbling river and vast open spaces ideal for getting away from it all. We knew then that it was here, in this haven of peace, that we would realize our dream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This campsite offered everything we were looking for: an unspoilt natural setting, a family atmosphere, and above all, endless possibilities for developing our vision.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The trade-in<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Since we took over Camping L’Arize<\/strong>, every day has been an exciting adventure. We put all our heart, passion and enthusiasm into this project, which is so close to our hearts. Every smile on our guests<\/strong>‘ faces, every childish laugh, every moment of sharing confirms that we’ve made the right choice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, we’re proud to welcome you to Camping l’Arize<\/strong>, an eco-responsible campsite with the Clef Verte<\/a> label – a place where nature reigns supreme, where days are punctuated by birdsong and the murmur of the river. Whether you’re looking for relaxation, adventure or just a good time with the family, you’ll find everything you need here for an unforgettable vacation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We invite you to join us in discovering the charms of the Ari\u00e8ge<\/strong>, a department rich in nature, history and culture. Explore prehistoric caves<\/strong>, Cathar castles<\/strong>, medieval towns<\/strong> and Romanesque churches<\/strong>. Take a refreshing dip in the white waters and enjoy some simple moments<\/strong> in an exceptional setting.<\/p>\n<\/div>

The future of L’Arize campsite in Ari\u00e8ge<\/h2>\n\n
<\/div>\n\n

We’ve always been nature<\/strong> and animal<\/strong> lovers, and it’s in this direction that we want to steer the future of our campsite<\/strong>. We plan to create a park in the heart of our 3-hectare wood<\/strong>, a sanctuary dedicated to biodiversity<\/strong>, with observatories<\/strong> and bird sanctuaries<\/strong>. The park would be a haven for local wildlife<\/strong>, providing safe spaces for birds to nest and rest. Well-placed observatories<\/strong> will enable campers<\/strong> and holidaymakers to get up close and personal with the animal life<\/strong> that thrives on our campsite.<\/p>\n\n

We’re thinking of trails<\/strong> through the park, inviting walkers to explore and admire the diversity of plant species<\/strong> thanks to explanatory signs. Every step would be an opportunity to get closer to nature and learn. Bird lovers will find a veritable paradise with local and migratory species<\/strong>, nesting boxes welcoming feathered families, and well-stocked feeders for observing them in their natural habitat<\/strong>. We’re also planning relaxation areas within the park, where visitors can sit back, relax and simply listen to the melodies of nature all around them.<\/p>\n\n

Our aim is to create a strong link between campers<\/strong> and the natural<\/strong> world around us, by offering an unspoilt space where biodiversity is cherished<\/strong> and respected. We hope that this park will become a place of discovery<\/strong>, wonder and relaxation for all those who come to stay at Camping l’Arize<\/strong>. To be continued!<\/p>\n\n

We look forward to welcoming you soon to L’Arize campsite<\/strong> in La Bastide-de-S\u00e9rou.<\/p>\n\n
