Discover a unique campsite in the Ardèche
Here, vacations take on their true meaning.
In the heart of the Ardèche mountains, Yelloh! Village Les Ranchisses campsite opens the doors to its haven of peace. Settle into a fully equipped cottage or a spacious pitch. Let yourself be lulled by the murmur of the river, then dive into the vast heated water park before enjoying local cuisine at the bistronomic restaurant. An exceptional spa, sports activities, family entertainment and premium services set the pace for your days.
Les Ranchisses is much more than a place to stay: it’s a family estate, built over three generations, where every guest is welcomed with the care reserved for a trusted host. Since 1981, the Chevalier family has kept alive an Ardèche art of living here—comfort without ostentation, nature without rusticity.
Nestled within the Monts d’Ardèche Regional Natural Park, the estate’s 30 hectares form a haven of serenity just minutes from Largentière and the Ardèche Gorges. The 18th-century stone building watching over the site has, over the decades, become the symbol of a distinctive hospitality—that of a family who truly welcomes you.

For adults, an outdoor pool reserved for swimmers, two outdoor pools, a covered swimming corridor and a NaturSpa balneotherapy area: jacuzzi, hammam, sauna, invite you to relax to the utmost.
For the little ones, there’s theAquakid, a 100 m² area with mini-slides and a rain mushroom. The paddling pool with slides and the indoor pool with pentagliss make for unforgettable afternoons. The water is heated, access is included in your stay, and a wristband is given to you on arrival.

Activities for the whole family
in Ardèche
At Les Ranchisses, there’s never a dull moment, but there’s never a dull moment either. The idea is to have the choice: to participate or not, to be agitated or to stroll. That’s what we think vacation is all about.
For children (aged 1-17), three clubs await their members: Baby Club (1-4 years, free except July-August), Mini Club (5-11 years, free), Club Ados (11-17 years, free, July and August). Mascots Yellito and Yellita look after the little ones. On the program: creative workshops, Olympics, treasure hunts, weekend shows and a mini-disco at 6pm every evening.
For sports enthusiasts: hiking, cycling, canoeing on the river, fitness, pilates, pétanque, molky… And from May 2026, a new guinguette area, pumptrack, hang-gliding, volleyball, inflatable structures, will further enrich the estate.
The entire length of the La Ligne river runs alongside the estate. Direct access from the campsite, free supervised swimming from 9am to 8pm, canoes available at no extra charge… The river is not a backdrop: it’s a living space in its own right. The banks are stony and authentic. Picnicking, angling, strolling at the end of the day when the low-angled lights make the stone glow. Some guests confide that it’s here, at the water’s edge, that they understand why they come back every summer.
5-star campsite in Ardèche with shops and services
Everything on the estate has been put together so that you don’t have to look anywhere else, unless you feel like exploring the Ardèche, of course.
Restaurant L’Auberge
Ardèche cuisine, local products, shaded terrace: L’Auberge is the gourmet soul of Les Ranchisses. Open for lunch and dinner (12 PM – 1 PM / 7 PM – 9 PM), it offers brasérade grills, wood-fired pizzas, regional specialties, and kids’ menus. The menu changes with the season. Booking recommended.

The bar shows live matches, offers a menu of homemade cocktails (mojito, spritz, pina colada, Ranchisses special…), and lends out board games.
Discover the Ardèche from the campsite
Chassiers is an ideal base for exploring the southern Ardèche. Less than an hour away: the Ardèche Gorges and Pont d’Arc, the Caverne du Pont d’Arc (replica of Grotte Chauvet 2), the listed villages of Balazuc and Vogüé, Aubenas castle, the lively markets of Joyeuse (Wednesday), Ruoms and Les Vans.
