Around the site

  • On the banks of the Dordogne two kilometres from medieval Cadouin
  • Direct access to a riverside beach; train station 10 minutes' walk
  • Playground and shop on site; dog-friendly; nature-filled location
After staying at Camping Le Pont de Vicq, your answer to questions about what you did on your holidays will be a breezy, 'Oh, just pitched up by the banks of the Dordogne'. That's right – this pretty, nature-filled Périgord Noir site has a scenic setting right next to the Dordogne. Not only that, but it has direct access to a riverfront beach and it's only a 15-minute walk from the centre of medieval Le Buisson-de-Cadouin. This is a spacious, well-shaded and friendly place, welcoming dogs and families. There's a playground for kids, plus a range of helpful on-site amenities including a launderette, washing-up area and three toilet blocks with hot showers, spacious toilet cubicles and accessible facilities. The Dordogne beach isn't the only swimming spot here, either; a swimming pool and paddling pool are open during high season for more outdoor dips. In July and August, the on-site snack bar also throws open its doors for drinks and light bites. Local products, bread and essentials are stocked in the on-site shop, so if you ever feel peckish outside of those months, you know where to go.

Janet B. 1 review

Electric grass pitch (waterside)

Liked Beautiful site right on the river, very friendly and helpful owners. Had a lovely stay paddle boarding and kayaking directly accessed from in front of our pitch. 10 minute walk into town and train station.

Disliked Only 1 shower/toilet block open after the first day. Admittedly it was very quiet but only 2 showers was not really enough although it wasn’t a big issue.

Local attractions

Make for the Maxange caves five minutes' drive away, the lush landscapes of the Périgord-Limousin Regional Nature Park an hour or so north… and of course the Dordogne river, and have you showed everyone your snaps of your riverside stay? The area's also exceedingly popular for outdoorsy and nature-based activities, from canoeing and kayaking down the Dordogne and Vezère rivers to horse riding at La Jumenterie and golfing at Château des Vigiers, 50 minutes and an hour away. Another famed destination in the Dordogne is the small medieval village of Cadouin a mere two kilometres from the site, with its 12th-century abbey where torchlight guided tours take place daily. If you're around with les enfants, the Touron animal park is a good option for a family day out.
