  • Namur family campsite with spectacular Ardennes Forest views
  • A 15-minute drive to the Euro Space Center and Castle of the Counts
  • Pool, café, grocery shop and entertainment in high season
Set amid Namur woodland on the southern slope of a hill edging the Ardennes Forest, Papillon Rochefort is surrounded by spectacular valleys, forests and rivers. That means plenty of chances for hikers, cyclists and mountain bikers to get out under their own steam to explore the region, while sightseeing families discover pretty Walloon cities like Dinant within half an hour’s drive. If you prefer to stay put on your woodland pitch, you won’t be short of stuff to do on site. The swimming pool is the focus of daily life in July and August, and there are other sports facilities including table tennis and pétanque, and a playing field for friendly football or volleyball matches. A couple of play areas with slides and swings take care of the younger guests, and the campsite’s entertainment team organises treasure hunts and hide-and-seek games in high season. The team also holds archery sessions – everyone welcome – and walking tours in the Ardennes countryside. If they sound too sedate, hire mountain bikes or book kayak trips along the Lesse River from reception – where there’s also lots of useful tourist information. Cosy La Cafet café is open for snacks, pizzas and organic drinks in July and August and on holiday weekends, and you can order breakfast pastries the night before from reception. The small neighbouring shop has plenty of fresh food, toiletries and sweets to treat well-behaved kids.

What customers say

This campsite offers a beautiful, tranquil setting with spacious pitches. Guests frequently praise the friendly and helpful staff, the pleasant bar/cafe, and the convenience for travellers. While many report clean facilities, some reviews highlight issues with the availability and cleanliness of toilets and showers, as well as the need to purchase shower tokens. Occasional comments mention the pool being closed or in need of maintenance, and some find the site can be noisy at times.

Liked De gastvrijheid, flexibiliteit en hulpvaardigheid van de uitbaters.
De bar en "pizzeria" aan de ingang van de camping. Heel lekker gegeten en super bediening. Hele goede sfeer over de hele camping.
Goede hygiëne.
Je kan broodjes bestellen voor de volgende ochtend.

Disliked Sanitair ok en proper maar iets te weinig mannentoiletten voor een volle camping. Geen toiletpapier en zeer weinig handzeep aanwezig.
Zwembad was jammergenoeg gesloten.

Electric optional grass touring pitch

Liked We chose to stay on the motorhome field across the road from the main campsite, and it couldn't have been nicer. Being still in June, the snack bar and pool were not yet open. The staff were always friendly and helpful.
The sanitary block for our area was always immaculate, cleaned and checked regularly, and smelled great! There was hot water in the washing up area, too. I question whether two showers, loos and sinks would be enough if the field was full (it was just us and one other van, so no issues for our visit).
We walked to the village for a Trappist beer in the restaurant/bar - just a 10-15 minute walk.
All in all, it's a fabulous campsite and on our list for a return visit one day.

Liked Staff were kind & it was fairly quiet in our area!

Disliked No soap or toilet paper in the toilet. The women’s toilet was around the back of the block which meant you had to walk on rotten wood to get there.

Electric optional grass touring pitch

Liked Very warm welcome from the owner and being end of season we had a choice of pitch. The main part of the site is pleasantly wooded but we chose a flat pitch close to the new toilet blocks on the lower part of the camp. The new toilet facilities were a revelation, clean, extremely well designed and prefabricated off site. Lots of hot water. Very peaceful.

Local attractions

If you’re travelling as a family, you may well find the kids demanding a visit to the Euro Space Center (15 minutes’ drive) for 4D planetarium films and free-fall slides. You may not be able to resist a visit to Doneu Ostrich Farm (20 minutes) either, for the chance to meet the birds and their cute chicks, while the limestones cave formations at the Domain of the Caves of Han (five minutes) are likely to captivate most kids too. To see how life in the Ardennes was under Roman occupation, travel 2000 years back in time at Malagne - Archéoparc de Rochefort (15 minutes) to tour the archaeological remains and reconstructed village. Another open-air museum is the Musée de la Vie Rurale en Wallonie (25 minutes), with half-timbered cottages, a traditional church and old farming implements on display. For more recent heritage, see the atmospheric ruins of the medieval Castle of the Counts behind the impressive present-day Château Comtal de Rochefort (15 minutes), and explore the formal gardens and room laid out in period style at moated Château de Lavaux-Sainte-Anne (five minutes).
