Historical heritage: from Petra Castle to the Chauvet 2 Cave
What is the history of Saint-Martin-d’Ardèche?
Formerly known as “Petra” in the Middle Ages, Saint-Martin-d’Ardèche grew up around its 13th-century fortified castle. Separated from its twin village (Aiguèze) when the departments were established, the village is now linked by its famous 19th-century suspension bridge.
3 major historic sites less than 20 minutes from the campsite:
- Saint-Marcel Cave (6 km): Unique in Europe for its immense cascading calcite pools.
- Aiguèze (7 km): A medieval town listed as one of the ‘Most Beautiful Villages of France’, accessible directly from the other side of the Ardèche.
- Chauvet 2 Cave (20 mins): A UNESCO-listed replica housing the world’s oldest cave paintings.
Valérie’s tip: “Park on the Saint-Martin side at dusk and walk across the suspension bridge. The view of the illuminated cliffs of Aiguèze is our finest local spectacle.”

- The peace and quiet
Just passing through for the weekend to meet up with my parents and children. Unfortunately, both of my children fell very ill, but the attentiveness, empathy and kindness of the owners and their team allowed us to have a good weekend regardless. Without any judgment or pretension, the owner called several numbers so that my children could see a doctor.
Beyond their sense of family, this is a simple campsite close to people, with facilities that make you want to do anything but leave! The staff are incredibly attentive and the premises are extremely clean!
Sincere thanks! See you next year, and microbe-free this time! 😂
Holiday ❘ CoupleWe highly recommend this establishment, an absolute joy!! Well-shaded, peaceful, a large pitch for the motorhome and motorbike trailer, a beautiful and relaxing panoramic view, and clean, well-stocked toilet blocks. The owners are really friendly and extremely helpful, always listening and giving excellent advice! We will gladly return to see them, and will bring some friends along next time.
Holiday ❘ CoupleGreat family campsite. We stopped over for several nights during our cycle touring trip (ViaRhona). The pitches are large, and the toilets and showers are tip-top. The campsite managers are friendly, available and kind. The swimming pool is lovely, though it gets shaded quickly in September.
Don't hesitate to come and rest in the peace and quiet of this campsite. Just a heads up if you are arriving by bike: there is a steep climb to get here.
HolidayGreat campsite. The managers are lovely. Highly recommended! +++
A superb, typically French and hospitable campsite, with great motorhome pitches and a fantastic view of Mont Blanc. Highly recommended if you like French hospitality and simplicity.
Holiday ❘ FamilyMy stay was perfect! A rather quiet and relaxing environment, and the staff were top-notch, thank you very much!
