Welcome to Camping du Batut

In the heart of the green, unspoilt landscape of the Aveyron, right on the banks of the river Tarn, lies Camping du Batut: a small, characterful nature campsite with 35 spacious pitches, just outside the village of Saint-Izaire.

Here it’s all about peace, space and enjoying the outdoor life. Our spacious pitches are mostly in the shade of beautiful tall trees, with the river always close by and green hills all around.

Whether you come with your own tent, caravan or camper, or would rather stay in one of our cosy furnished tents, this is the place to relax and enjoy nature. Take a dip in the Tarn, find a nice spot in the sun or head out to explore the beautiful surroundings. There’s plenty to do for active holidaymakers too! Whether you love walking, cycling or canoeing, the varied countryside of the Aveyron offers endless ways to get out and challenge yourself.

Fancy a drink or a simple bite to eat? Come and join us on our little terrace by reception. We’re always here for you, whether for a chat, tips on the loveliest spots in the area or a helping hand when something needs fixing. Big or small, you can bring all your questions to us. We’re happy to help!

What we offer

Whether you arrive with a tent, a caravan or a motorhome, there is a pitch to suit. And if you would rather not haul it all with you, rent one of our furnished tents.

Facilities

Everything for a relaxed stay by the river.

  • Bread & breakfast

    What could be nicer than starting the day slowly with the smell of fresh baguettes and warm croissants? Order your bread the evening before and we’ll make sure it’s waiting for you, fresh, the next morning. Lovely to enjoy at your own pitch! Rather sit down for it? Treat yourself to a fresh breakfast, a good cup of coffee or tea and all the time in the world to wake up slowly. Simply book the evening before.

  • Terrace & Restaurant

    By the entrance and reception: for a drink, an ice cream, and tips on local events and sights. A few days a week the kitchen serves pizza, burger and fries, or salad.

  • Ice cream

    Fancy something sweet? Ice creams are on sale at reception.

  • Dining together

    In high season we eat together once a week, from the barbecue or the griddle. Sign up in advance.

  • River & swimming

    The Tarn flows past the campsite: you can swim in clear, flowing water. The river’s water quality is officially tested every two weeks.

  • Washrooms

    Plenty of toilets, showers and dishwashing sinks, with hot water.

    You can empty a chemical toilet here. Please note: only if you use biodegradable additives (available at reception if you need them).

    Grey water can be emptied at the motorhome areas in Broquiès and Saint-Izaire (about 4 km).

  • Wi-Fi

    Wi-Fi on the campsite; the signal is best at reception.

  • Dogs welcome

    On a lead outside your own pitch. Walk them outside the campsite and clean up after them; poop bags are required.
