If you were looking for a warm and friendly place with that retro feeling in the air in which to spend your holidays, [Airstream Europe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rei-coop-special-edition-basecamp-16) is the place for you. What can make you chill out better than a bit of time in a vintage caravan in rural France?

Airstream Europe offers 10 different [vintage Airstream campers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airstream-world-traveler-22rb) at their site near Mirepoix, approximately 100 km West of Toulouse.

Each caravan can host from one to four people, and all of them feature water and electricity, built-in washroom, BBQ, sun loungers, and on-site parking.

But what makes the place really cool is that each of the Airstreams offers decor out of the 1960s and 1970s, including a vintage television, classic music - even cutlery and crockery of the era.
In the middle of the camp, which has a Flinstones'village flavor, there is the [Apollo Lounge](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vibration-setting), which is, of course, an Airstream retro bar.

On the campsite, which is surrounded by farms, you can find also organic products, fresh bread, croissants and vegetables.
