Looking for a campsite with or without entertainment in Provence or Haute-Savoie? Pausado has you covered!

Are you the kind of holidaymaker who loves a lively break, or do you prefer a well-earned rest? If there’s one question worth asking before heading off on holiday, it’s this one. While some travellers thrive on sports tournaments, fun activities and festive evenings, others favour naps, scenic walks and reading to the sound of chirping cicadas.

At Pausado, we’ve made the choice… to give you the choice. Some of our campsites offer a full entertainment programme, while others promise a peaceful escape. In this article, we’ll introduce you to our campsites with entertainment in Provence, as well as our more tranquil spots. You’ll be able to decide on the destination that suits your holiday style best. And rest assured: there’s a Pausado campsite that’s just right for you!

Campsites with or without entertainment: the pros of each

At an entertainment-filled campsite, activities are organised throughout the day and evening, targeting different age groups. Children, teenagers, and adults will all find something to enjoy — from sports tournaments and aqua fitness to bingo nights and dancing under the stars.

Campsites with entertainment: what to expect

Benefits of this type of campsite include:

Non-stop fun without ever leaving the campsite
Easy access to a variety of activities
A break for parents, with children cared for by professional entertainers
A friendly atmosphere that makes it easy to socialise

These sites are ideal for:

Families
Active holidaymakers
Solo travellers
Outgoing groups of friends

Campsites without entertainment: what they offer

Choosing a low-key campsite is often a deliberate decision. Most guests come seeking:

Peace and quiet, especially in the evenings
A deep connection with nature and a real sense of disconnection
A completely free and flexible holiday rhythm

These campsites are perfect for:

Seniors
City dwellers needing to switch off
Families wanting quality time away from the hustle of everyday life
Vanlifers or motorhome travellers looking for a restful stop

Campsites with entertainment in Provence and Haute-Savoie for lively holidays

At Pausado, we believe in offering a wide range of activities to suit all tastes. We love nothing more than spreading joy and good vibes throughout our campsites. Here’s a look at the entertainment you’ll find at our livelier sites.

Kids’ and teens’ clubs

A children’s club is a must-have at a service-packed campsite. It keeps little ones and teens entertained with age-appropriate fun, and gives parents time to relax too.

Daytime sports activities

Nearly all our campsites feature play areas and pétanque courts. But our most vibrant sites go much further, offering adult activities such as aqua hiit, aqua aerobics, volleyball or badminton tournaments, and yoga sessions.

Fun activities for adults

Sport isn’t the only thing on offer. We pride ourselves on offering a broad mix of activities, such as:

Board games and bingo
Darts, table football, and Mölkky
Local product tastings, and more

Swimming pool areas

What would a lively campsite be without a pool? Every Pausado campsite has a swimming area — from a classic outdoor pool to a full-on water park.

Evening entertainment

Our dedicated entertainment teams ensure the fun doesn’t stop when the sun goes down. Evening highlights may include:

Apéro games
Disco nights, themed parties, blind tests or karaoke
Live music and shows

Pausado campsites for peace and quiet

Of course, we don’t just focus on fun and games. We also welcome holidaymakers who want peace and calm. Some of our sites offer very few activities — or none at all. Let us introduce you to our more serene destinations.

A setting made for relaxation

Sometimes, the setting alone is enough to keep you happy — like our seafront campsite on the Mediterranean or the one in the heart of Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. At these locations, evening gatherings are occasional, low-key and finish at a reasonable hour — such as local markets or traditional wooden games.

Services to help you embrace slow living

Holidays aren’t just about activities. Our campsites offer all the essentials to help you unwind: barbecue areas, grocery shops, bakeries, bars, and restaurants — either on-site or close by. Plus, we’ve deliberately chosen small-scale sites where nature takes centre stage.

Choosing your Pausado campsite based on entertainment level

By now, you probably know whether you’re leaning toward a campsite with entertainment in Provence (or Haute-Savoie) — or without. To help you fine-tune your choice, each campsite’s homepage features an entertainment barometer that shows the level of activities offered.

Activity barometers and weekly schedules

You’ll also find detailed information about pool facilities, play areas, and weekly entertainment schedules in the “Have Fun” section of each site’s page. Or simply keep reading for a quick guide to where your next perfect holiday might be.

Lively Pausado campsites

Two of our campsites stand out for their active entertainment programmes:

La Vallée Heureuse, our 4-star campsite in the Alpilles, offers a full programme of daytime activities (including kids’ sessions) and themed evenings almost every night. The central games area hosts tournaments galore — pétanque, mini-golf, darts, and more.
Les Chênes Blancs, in the Luberon, is another sociable spot. Whether it’s beach volleyball, pétanque, table tennis or mini-golf, there’s no shortage of things to do. Fitness lovers will enjoy aqua hiit and aqua fun. Children can join the kids’ club, while parents unwind. Evenings are all about themed parties and good vibes.

Peaceful holiday spots

If calm is what you’re after, we’ve got three peaceful havens:

Pegomas, in the Alpilles — a simple, authentic campsite in one of France’s most beautiful villages
Le Luberon, where activities are limited to kids’ sessions during the day. Evening events are occasional and always low-key
Les Tamaris, in Martigues — our Mediterranean coast campsite that invites you to relax and unwind

Campsites with a bit of both

If you’d like a mix of entertainment and peace, Ludo Camping in the Ardèche is the place for you. There’s a kids’ club, adult activities (guided walks, pétanque tournaments, aqua aerobics), and a fabulous water park. Evenings may feature some entertainment, but nights remain peaceful.

Le Relais du Léman, in Haute-Savoie, also strikes a balance between fun and relaxation. Daytime activities include meditation, escape games, and stargazing apéros. In the evening, occasional low-key events bring guests together.

The Pausado extra for your Provence holidays

If you’re heading to the Luberon or the Alpilles, we offer two campsites in each region — one with entertainment (Les Chênes Blancs, La Vallée Heureuse), one without (Le Luberon, Pegomas). Want to stay somewhere calm but still enjoy an evening out? No problem! You can book a table at the neighbouring campsite’s restaurant through reception.

Now that you know all the options, it’s time to choose your perfect Pausado campsite — with or without entertainment — in Provence or Haute-Savoie. We look forward to welcoming you. Book your dream holiday today with Pausado!
