  • Peaceful wooded site on the banks of the Dordogne river
  • A 10-minute walk from Bergerac's attractions and amenities
  • Fishing, pétanque, playground and bakery on site
Doing the Dordogne? Bag a break at peaceful Camping La Pelouse for a bargain Bergerac base. This splendid spot is in woods on the banks of the Dordogne river, in a convenient location for the town’s amenities (shops, restaurants and an excellent Saturday market among them) and attractions – it’s easy to abandon the car here and head out on foot or bikes to see the half-timbered houses of the historic centre. A short stroll also leads to boarding points for trips on traditional gabarre boats, and trails seeking out the Cyrano de Bergerac statues scattered around the town. Bergerac’s rightly famed as a wine destination too – keen tipplers can learn about their drinks at the wine museum, and take tutored tastings (most handy that you can walk home from these). There's no shame however in skipping straight to the sipping; there are plenty of vineyards and wineries within a half-hour drive that will welcome guests in for a tour and to pick up bottles. Back at the site, there’s plenty of space to chill out, with direct access to the river for fishing or waterside wine quaffing. You may also like to take your glass over to the pétanque court (it helps relax the bowling arm… perhaps) or to the playground while you supervise the small sorts. Shops for snacks to accompany your drinks are easily reachable in town, but you can save yourself an early-morning outing by ordering breakfast bits from the bakery on site.

What customers say

This campsite boasts a fantastic location, just a short walk from Bergerac town centre and on the banks of the Dordogne river. Pitches are generally spacious, often shaded, and the peaceful atmosphere is appreciated. However, multiple reviews highlight concerns regarding the dated and sometimes unclean toilet and shower facilities, with some noting issues with hot water and general maintenance. Access for larger vehicles and the muddy conditions of pitches, especially after rain, are also mentioned. Despite these drawbacks, the site's proximity to Bergerac and the helpfulness of some staff are frequently praised.

Liked Close to the old town centre— 15 minutes walk.

Disliked The cleanliness of the facilities—- it seemed that they’d given up after the main season.. shower block/ toilets not clean—-we didn’t shower there because of that!! Information on arrival was virtually non existent .Unfortunately due to the weather the pitches were muddy!! Breakfast croissants were very undercooked—- not tasty!

Liked It is a great location for visiting Bergerac which is definitely worth the visit.

Disliked The sanitary areas need attention and cleaning. Urinals should be separate to the toilets which are unisex. Toilet paper should not be outside the cubicle door!

Local attractions

Begin your Bergerac break with a trip to the town museum, which houses a collection of wine exhibits. If drinking’s not your only vice, stop by at the Tobacco Museum for an insight into the history of smoking as well. For more wholesome outings, take a trip along the Dordogne on a traditional gabare from the town pier or take a 15-minute drive to hire canoes and power your own paddling. There’s plenty of wine to sip in town, but it’s also worth spending some time taking tours of some of the area’s top wineries – the excellent Château de Monbazillac (10 minutes’ drive) is a good place to start. Those with nippers who aren’t yet of drinking age may instead like to do their castle visits at Château de Lanquais (25 minutes) or Château de Lauzun (35 minutes). Other wine-free days out locally include coming eye to eye with the biggest snake in Europe (a hefty 130 kilograms of serpent, no less) at Zoo de Mescoules (20 minutes) and moseying around the ancient mosaics at Montcaret archaeological site (40 minutes).
