La Bastide-Puylaurent ({{IPA|fr|la bastid pɥiloʁɑ̃}}; {{langx|oc|Puèglaurenç}}) is a commune in the Lozère department in southern France.

The Trappist monastery Notre-Dame-des-Neiges (Our Lady of the Snows), visited by Robert Louis Stevenson in 1878 and described in his book Travels with a Donkey in the Cévennes, is about one and a half miles east of the village, in the Ardèche department. The Robert Louis Stevenson Trail (GR 70), a popular long-distance path approximately following Stevenson's journey, runs through the village.{{cite book |title=The Robert Louis Stevenson Trail |publisher=Cicerone |edition=2nd |date=2007 |first=Alan |last=Castle |isbn=978-1-85284-511-7 |pages=114–119}}
