Parc Highlights

• You'll love the view of the mountains and vineyards

• There's a fantastic pool complex with four pools & a waterslide

La Chapelle is a peaceful and picturesque countryside parc, on the doorstep of the lively Argelès Plage.

With a long sandy beach just 200m walk from the parc and a large selection of cafés, restaurants and bars only 50m away in the bustling resort of Argelès, Camping La Chapelle is a relaxing holiday destination. Located at the foothills of the Pyrénées, the parc is perfectly located for both beach, countryside and town, as well as a sense of peace and privacy. If you fancy venturing further afield, a trip down the coast to the picturesque Catalan towns of Collioure or Port Vendras are well worth a visit, or you could even cross the border for an exciting day trip to Barcelona. The newly developed pool area is also a great place to meet other holidaymakers or simply top up your tan and relax with a good book.
