  • Peaceful, family-run Dordogne campsite
  • Set in 26 acres of the Parc Naturel Régional Périgord Limousin
  • On-site bar and pizzeria, outdoor pool and fishing lake
You'll feel right at home at Camping Maisonneuve, a peaceful, friendly and family-run Dordogne site in the Périgord Vert within the Périgord-Limousin Regional Nature Park. The site spreads over 26 acres of green scenery, with plenty of space for all, a private fishing lake, and woodland and riverside walks. A village shop, bar, bakery and restaurant are all in the small village of St Jory de Chalais five minutes' walk away. A swimming lake with beach is within 15 kilometres' drive. Amicable and helpful owners Lorna and Russ haven't stopped there with their tiptop facilities and amenities: Maisonneuve also has an outdoor pool, a play area, free wifi, and a fully licensed bar and pizzeria. Barbecues and campfires are both allowed on site. This pretty place is just the ticket for a roomy and peaceful getaway, or to use as a base for getting out into all on offer around the Dordogne. At just four kilometres from the N21, it's also a most handy stopover for travellers on their way to southern France, Spain and Portugal – but when you see what's on offer here, you'll likely want to stay at least another few days…

Debbie S. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: This is a lovely site with great facilities. Owners are friendly and helpful. The site is well laid out with many really nice pitches. Although we didn’t use it this time the on-site bar, restaurant and pool looked lovely. A short walk to an excellent boulangerie for bread in the morning or to local restaurant. Only stayed two nights on our way north through France but we will certainly stay here again

Disliked: If I was to be picky the shower temperature was a little low and it was a stretch to reach the electric point (fortunately there was no one using the pitch next door so we were able to run the cable across so no issue in this case. …. but I am being picky, didn’t really dislike anything!

Liked: Loved the campsite - really warm welcome at the bar, great choice of pitches and very relaxed atmosphere. Enjoyed dinner with lovely view and children loved the swimming pool. Russ kindly booked us in with vet for treatment for dog prior to returning to UK. Walked and cycled from campsite.

Local attractions

The spectacular Dordogne, with its splendid landscapes and scenery, prehistoric and ancient sites, jaw-dropping châteaux and deep dark caves, is a rightly popular place in France for visitors from within the country and all over the world. And then – mais oui – there's the cuisine: make sure to make room for Dordogne duck and goose, truffles, cheese, Bergerac and Monbazillac wines… For outdoorsy days/attempts to burn off laden heaps of Dordogne eats, a swimming lake (and beach) are 15 kilometres away at Grand Étang de Saint Saud; many kilometres of cycle trails are nearby, and canoes can be hired to explore the Dronne, Vézère and Dordogne rivers. The Camping Maisonneuve owners also particularly recommend the splendid subterranean experience of Villars Cave, 14 kilometres from base, as well as the spectacular châteaux at Puyguilhem (15 kilometres) and Hautefort (30 kilometres). Within day trip distance are the World War II memorial and museum at Oradour-sur-Glane; the cathedral and Roman remains of Périgueux, and the fab medieval centre of Limoges, all within 45 kilometres. Bergerac and Sarlat are both 75 kilometres away.
