Parc Highlights

This is a very spacious and attractive parc
There are no less than 5 major chateaux nearby
This is a lively parc, yet with a laid-back atmosphere

A stunning combination of modern facilities and lovely woodland make this a popular choice with our customers.

Beyond the beautifully restored watermill that welcomes you at the entrance, you’ll find a parc of welcome contrasts. On the one hand, it’s a verdant, rural parc with large grassy pitches set amidst the dappled shade of walnut, oak and apple trees. The facilities on the other hand are very modern, including a fabulous pool complex with three slides, covered pool, impeccable wash blocks and an excellent takeaway and restaurant with wonderful plats du jour! The owners also organise activities in high season, which include popular canoe trips. This is the real heart of the Dordogne too, with rolling wooded hillsides, sleepy, honey-coloured villages, crumbling old farmhouses and castles galore to discover.

Neighbouring pitches are available to book on this parc.
