    What a wonderful experience it was to be with Timon and Mariam at the Camping des Rendonneurs. How inspired and helpful these people are! They really do everything for you within their capacity and that is a lot! We were there in February and even then the nature on the campsite was beautiful! A lot of attention is paid to a (bio)diverse and natural environment. I can't wait to see it once when everything is in full bloom and the stream meandering through the campground! The mountain environment outside the campground is also beautiful and dense and breathes a rich Cathar history with many castles and villages to visit. The food, homemade by Mariam, is truly delicious and made with great care and delicious organic produce. I eat vegan and that was no problem. We spent an evening barbequing together in the surrounding sauna hut. Wonderfully cozy, during a still cold evening in February, roasting yourself around the fire. In the store at the campground you can buy all kinds of local and organic products that they take care to buy from local entrepreneurs. I picked up some delicious things. I really had a wonderful time in every way. Thank you and see you again! 🍀

    Wat een heerlijke ervaring was het om bij Timon en Mariam op de camping des Rendonneurs te zijn. Wat zijn deze mensen bevlogen en behulpzaam! Ze doen echt alles voor je wat binnen hun capaciteit ligt en dat is veel! Wij waren er in februari en toen al was de natuur op de camping prachtig! Er wordt veel aandacht besteed aan een (bio)diverse en natuurlijke omgeving. Ik kan niet wachten om het een keer te zien als alles in volle bloei staat en de beek meanderend door de camping stroomt! De bergomgeving buiten de camping is ook prachtig en dichtbegroeid en ademt een rijke Kathaarse geschiedenis met veel kastelen en dorpjes om te bezoeken. Het eten, zelf gemaakt door Mariam, is echt heerlijk en wordt met veel zorg en heerlijke biologische producten gemaakt. Ik eet vegan en dat was geen probleem. We hebben een avond gezamelijk in de omgeboude saunahut gebarbequed. Heerlijk knus, tijdens een nog koude avond in februari, lekker zelf roosteren rondom het vuur. In het winkeltje op de camping kun je allerlei lokale en biologische producten kopen die ze met zorg van de lokale ondernemers afnemen. Ik heb wat heerlijke dingen meegenomen. Ik heb echt in alle opzichten een heerlijke tijd gehad. Dank je wel en tot weer! 🍀

    Super sweet owners at a really lovely campsite. What a nice pitches (large), lovely in nature and what a tranquility. In the vicinity you can hike (see photos). Your hike starts right from the campground and takes you to a beautiful canyon. We camped but the other cottages and tents look very nice too. Especially the owners make your stay really nice! Highly recommended!

    Super lieve eigenaren op een echt heerlijke camping. Wat een fijne kampeerplekken (groot), heerlijk in de natuur en wat een rust. In de omgeving kan je fijn wandelen (zie foto’s). Je wandeling start direct vanaf de camping en brengt je naar een mooie canyon. Wij hebben gekampeerd maar de andere huisjes en tenten zien er ook heel leuk uit. Vooral de eigenaren maken je verblijf echt fijn! Aanrader!

    I took the wrong road, a GPS error, I rode my motorcycle into the campsite, the owner, with a foreign accent, asked me if I knew how to read, a really unfriendly person, I certainly wouldn't go camping in this campsite which is very well placed, being received in this way doesn't mean anything good, to be avoided.

    je me suis trompé de route, erreur de GPS, je me suis engagé en moto dans le camping, la proprietaire avec un accent etranger, m'a demandé si je savais lire, une personne vraiment antipathique , je n irai certainement pas camper dans ce camping qui pourtant est tres bien placé,etre reçu de la sorte n envisage rien de bon, à fuir .

    The setting is excellent and the rooms are pleasant, although facilities such as washrooms suffer from a slight lack of hygiene.

    The campsite is exceptionally beautiful: it starts with the variety of accommodation (tent-tippi-tit-home-mobile home), continues with the exceptional location in a small forest and ends with the great hosts Maryam and Timon, who provide support with tips for excursions, offer excellent organic cuisine at a very good price in the evening and spoil guests in the morning with fresh baguettes and super tasty croissants.

    Der Campingplatz ist außerordentlich schön: das fängt bei der Vielzahl der Unterkünfte (Zelt-Tippi-TitHome-Mobile Home) an, geht über die außergewöhnliche Lage in einem kleinen Wäldchen weiter und endet nicht zuletzt bei den tollen Gastgebern Maryam und Timon, die mit Ausflugstipps unterstützen, abends hervorragende Bioküche zu sehr gutem Preis anbieten und die Gäste am Morgen mit frischem Baguette und super leckeren Croissants verwöhnen.
