A BREAK IN THE COUNTRYSIDE

Why choose the Tarn for a holiday spent enjoying nature and relaxing?

A trip to the countryside doesn’t necessarily mean clocking up the kilometres or filling every day with activities. A successful holiday can also involve slow down, breathe and get back to a simpler pace, with a mix of swimming, walks, leisurely meals and carefully chosen excursions.

At Camping Le Rousieux, you can enjoy the great outdoors whilst still having the freedom to do as you please. A morning by the pool, a walk, spending time with the ponies or a trip out into the Tarn are all it takes to make your day special, without overloading your schedule.

To make the most of this break, start by choosing the sort of holiday that suits you best. The Accommodation at Le Rousieux Campsite offer accommodation in mobile homes, chalets, Safari Lodge tents or on a camping pitch, depending on your comfort requirements and how close to nature you’d like to be.

You can then organise a few day trips thanks to our Ideas for visits and things to discover in the Tarn, whilst still making sure there’s plenty of time for days spent simply at the campsite.

Don’t try to plan everything

To really switch off, choose just a few key outings and keep some days free. That way, you’ll be able to adapt your plans to the weather, your energy levels and what you feel like doing at the time.

Set the pace you’re looking for

Before planning your activities, ask yourself what you’re really hoping to get out of this holiday: to relax, go for walks, explore the Tarn countryside, spend time with your family, or simply make the most of the great outdoors.

This initial consideration will help you plan a well-balanced holiday, without overloading your schedule with outings that might end up becoming a burden.

Alternate between days out and days at the campsite

GETTING BACK INTO A MORE RELAXED RHYTHM

How can you make the most of a relaxing break in the countryside in the Tarn?

The feeling of being able to switch off doesn’t just depend on the place you choose. It also comes down to how you organise your days. To really make the most of your nature holidays in the Tarn, try not to make every outing feel like a chore, and leave some time for spontaneous decisions.

You can plan your days around a single desire: exploring the countryside, walking a few kilometres, enjoying the swimming pool or simply staying at the campsite. This deliberately simple programme leaves more time for rest, socialising and the little pleasures of everyday life.

If you’d rather not cook, check the opening times and arrangements for the the campsite’s restaurant and home-cooked meals. This will allow you to keep some meals simple without having to organise another outing.
