Six Guests per Pitch: Making the Most of Our 70–80 m² Camping Plots

Planning a camping break for a family or small group often starts with one simple question: will everyone fit comfortably on one pitch? At Camping Les Medes, the answer is clear. Six Guests per Pitch is more than a capacity figure; it is a practical way to enjoy a well-sized outdoor space with room to sleep, cook, relax, and organize daily life. Our 70–80 m² camping plots are designed to give guests a functional base for holidays with tents, caravans, or motorhomes.

If you are comparing options or preparing your layout before arrival, this guide will help you understand what to expect from our pitches, how to use the space well, and what details can make your stay more comfortable. You will also see why features such as 6 or 10 A electricity, water supply, drainage, level ground, and summer shade matter when you are sharing one pitch with up to six people.

What does Six Guests per Pitch mean?

Six Guests per Pitch means each plot at Camping Les Medes can accommodate a maximum of 6 people. The pitches measure from 70 to 80 m² and include the essentials many campers look for when booking a practical, comfortable space.

Pitch features at a glance

Feature Details
Maximum capacity 6 people
Pitch size 70–80 m²
Electricity 6 or 10 A
Water Water supply
Drainage Available throughout the campsite except for 10 pitches on K street (even numbers)
Ground Level surface
Rain performance Good drainage
Shade in summer Abundant shade from mulberries, pines and poplars

These features matter because comfort on a shared pitch depends on more than square meters alone. A usable camping space needs a practical surface, access to services, and enough flexibility for different styles of stay.

Why a 70–80 m² pitch works well for up to six guests

A pitch of 70–80 m² offers a balanced footprint for a classic camping setup. It gives groups enough room to divide the area into zones, which is one of the simplest ways to make a shared space feel organized.

In camping, good use of space often comes down to layout. Even a generous pitch feels crowded if everything is placed without a plan. By contrast, a well-arranged plot supports smoother movement, easier mealtimes, and more privacy between sleeping and living areas.

How to think about the space

When planning for Six Guests per Pitch, imagine the plot in three simple parts:

  1. Sleeping area for tents or your main caravan or motorhome setup.
  2. Living area for table, chairs, and shared time outdoors.
  3. Service area for access to water, hookups, entry points, and everyday gear.

This approach helps prevent the most common issue on group pitches: using too much of the central area too early and leaving no comfortable circulation space.

How families and groups can organize one pitch efficiently

Every group camps differently, but a few practical principles make a big difference on a 70–80 m² camping plot.

1. Start with the largest element

Place the biggest part of your setup first. That may be your:

Once the main structure is positioned, it becomes much easier to arrange smaller items logically around it.

2. Keep a clear shared zone

For a group of up to six, the outdoor living area often becomes the heart of the pitch. Reserve part of the plot for:

A clear communal zone makes the pitch feel more spacious because everyone naturally gathers in one place instead of spreading equipment everywhere.

3. Avoid blocking access points

Because the pitches include electricity and water supply, it is smart to keep service access easy. Constantly moving bags, coolers, or chairs to reach your connection points quickly becomes inconvenient.

4. Use the edges for gear

Store lower-priority items around the perimeter of the pitch where possible. This can include:

Keeping the center open improves comfort and reduces clutter.

The practical value of water, electricity, and drainage

When choosing a pitch, guests often focus first on size. In reality, the included services shape the day-to-day experience just as much.

Electricity: 6 or 10 A

Our pitches come with 6 or 10 A electricity. For campers, electrical access supports a more convenient stay by helping power essential equipment and improving daily comfort.

Before you travel, it is worth checking what your setup needs so you can plan sensibly. In general, understanding your equipment in advance helps avoid overloading your routine with unnecessary appliances.

Water supply

A water supply on the pitch makes routine camping tasks easier. Access to water supports a smoother daily rhythm for cooking, washing, cleaning, and general campsite organization.

For larger groups, this matters even more. The more people sharing one pitch, the more valuable it becomes to keep basic tasks simple and efficient.

Drainage

Drainage is available throughout the campsite except for 10 pitches on K street (even numbers). This is an important detail for guests who want to plan carefully.

Good drainage supports comfort during wet weather, and all plots also have level ground with good drainage if it rains. That combination helps maintain usability and makes it easier to keep your outdoor area functional after a shower.

Why shade and level ground improve the camping experience

A pitch is not only about dimensions and hookups. The physical feel of the space also matters, especially during longer stays.

Summer shade from trees

During the summer months, the pitches benefit from abundant shade from mulberries, pines and poplars. Natural shade can improve outdoor comfort across the day, especially when families and groups spend long periods on the pitch between outings.

Shade also makes shared spaces more pleasant for:

Level surface for easier setup

All plots have a level surface. This is one of those details that sounds simple but has a major practical impact. Setting up on level ground generally makes positioning tents, caravans, tables, and sleeping arrangements easier and more comfortable.

For groups sharing a pitch, level space also improves circulation and helps the whole layout feel more stable and usable.

Smart layout ideas for Six Guests per Pitch

If you want to make the most of a 70–80 m² plot, focus on function first and extras second.

Best-practice layout tips

These simple choices help a pitch feel orderly rather than packed, even with six guests sharing the same space.

Choosing the right stay style for your group

Camping Les Medes offers around 170 individual pitches for tents, caravans and motorhomes. Of these, 169 pitches are available for holiday guests, while one pitch is reserved for a long-term or permanent camper.

That variety gives guests flexibility in how they stay, while keeping the camping experience centered on practical outdoor accommodation. If you are still comparing options, it can also be useful to look at the campsite’s other accommodation types, including:

For travelers who prefer the atmosphere of traditional camping, though, the pitches remain a strong choice thanks to their size, included services, and maximum capacity of six people.
