Camping Des Bastides is your ultimate gateway to an authentic French holiday. Nestled in the heart of Salles, this family-run, four-star park is the ideal spot for those wanting to slow down and reconnect with nature. Whether you are looking for a serene week in a rustic chalet or prefer the traditional feel of a spacious forest pitch, the park offers a perfect blend of comfort and adventure.
We always recommend this site to families with children aged 4 to 14 who love being active. Why? Because the pool complex is fantastic—the heated waters and waterslide will keep the little ones busy for hours, while the playground and sports areas offer plenty of space to run free. It is widely praised for its peaceful, shaded environment which provides a welcome cooling break during the warm summer months.
Curious about the local area? You are perfectly placed to visit the famous bastide villages and medieval castles that give this region its name. Are you ready to trade city noise for birdsong and starry nights? With excellent on-site facilities like a snack bar, bread service, and a friendly, welcoming team, you’ll find everything you need for a stress-free getaway. It is, quite simply, the best way to experience the hidden beauty of the Lot-et-Garonne region.

Surroundings
The immediate vicinity is a lush, rolling countryside defined by the verdant forests of the Lot-et-Garonne region. Within a 10km radius, the landscape is a patchwork of sunflower fields, ancient oak woodlands, and winding river valleys. It is a tranquil, green paradise where nature, history, and rural charm converge, offering a truly immersive experience in the heart of French countryside living.
“If you are heading to Camping Des Bastides, my biggest tip is to embrace the local pace of life. This is not a high-octane resort; it is a place to recharge. I highly recommend ordering your fresh bread and pastries from the reception the day before—there is nothing better than enjoying a warm croissant on your own terrace while the forest wakes up around you.
For families, the pool is obviously the main draw, but do not skip the surrounding nature trails. The forest paths are perfect for early morning walks before the midday sun hits. If you are staying in one of the safari tents or chalets, bring a deck of cards or board games; the evenings here are beautifully quiet and perfect for some quality family time without screens.
A pro-tip for your day trips: the region is hilly, so if you plan on cycling to the nearby villages, consider hiring an electric mountain bike on-site to make the journey much easier. Finally, if you visit in mid-summer, don’t miss the local night markets in the nearby villages—they are the perfect place to sample local cheeses, duck confit, and regional wines under the stars. It is an experience you won't forget.”
