Domaine de la Sablière

A large 4-star naturist village in the Gorges de la Cèze, between Provence and the Gard, in operation for over fifty years: 504 pitches and rental units spread over a vast wooded site beside the canyon, with direct access to the river beaches of the Cèze. Its heart is a terraced water park perched high above the valley, with pools carved into the rock, slides and an indoor pool; there is also mini golf, tennis, a gym, a sauna, a wellness area with massages and beauty treatments, even a tattoo parlour, as well as a bar, restaurant, takeaway and a supermarket with regional products. Entertainment is extensive and free — creative workshops, body painting, kids' and teens' clubs, theme evenings — and the clientele is very international, with a strong Dutch presence. Accommodation is in chalets and mobile homes of various sizes or on pitches, including some with private bathrooms. Pets allowed for a fee (max 2). Recent visitors appreciate the pools, the staff and the location; in the past, criticism mainly concerned the toilet facilities, and some have complained of mismatched bookings and services.
