Accomodation Accueil Vélo en Provence Occitane

When my cousin Jérôme came to stay in Provence Occitane, I showed him that this region is a real paradise for cycling enthusiasts. As a cyclist, he was a little anxious about organising a cycling weekend in the Gard, but I quickly convinced him with the Accueil Vélo label that Provence Occitanehas proudly obtained. This label offered him real relief by guaranteeing that each establishment, restaurant, cycle hire and repair shop, as well as the tourist sites, would be adapted to his specific needs.

A label of confidence for cycling enthusiasts

The Accueil Vélo label represents a promise of quality for all cyclists. So, by choosing establishments with the label, Jérôme was sure that he had access to a maximum number of services :

  • Proximity to routes: all the accommodation with the label is less than 5 km from a cycle route. This meant he could easily set off to discover the region’s enchanting landscapes without wasting time trying to find out how to get there.
  • Suitable facilities: each establishment is well equipped for cyclists. He felt privileged to have access to repair kits and secure shelters for his bike, allowing him to enjoy his stay to the full without worrying about the safety of his equipment.
  • A warm welcome and advice: the hosts at the approved establishments gave her a friendly welcome. They were always ready to give him useful advice on the weather and the best routes. This helped him plan his outings.
  • Personalised services: he was also able to take advantage of services tailored to his needs, such as luggage transfer and laundry. A real asset to the success of his holiday!

Accueil Vélo accommodation to suit all tastes

If you’d like to discover Provence Occitane at your leisure, or if you’re planning to take part in one of the region’s sporting competitions, you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to accommodation. Here’s what I suggested to Jérôme:

  • A bed and breakfast for an authentic experience. The hosts are passionate about their region and share invaluable advice.
  • Hotels to enjoy modern comfort and services dedicated to cyclists, making a stay in the Gard just as relaxing.
  • Camping is a friendly and economical option. In Provence Occitane, many campsites offer facilities specially designed for cyclists.
  • If he had come with his family or a group of friends, the holiday homes would have provided a self-contained setting where everyone could relax after a day’s cycling.
