  • Pool, playground, café, library, local wines and artisan beers
Domaine Des Mathevies is a small, family-friendly campsite deep in the Dordogne countryside. Set in an elevated position high above the Dordogne valley, it's an excellent location to sit back and soak up the views, the peace and every last drop of summer sunshine… The grounds here are very varied, with 2.5 hectares of landscaped terracing and woodland to explore. The facilities are varied too – there's an outdoor pool, a playground, sports areas for tennis, badminton or table tennis and a small on-site library too. There's also an old barn that has been lovingly converted into a café, The Cosy Nook, where mornings are all about baguettes, croissants and coffee (which you can either have on the terrace or take back to your pitch). As the temperature rises, settle down under the shade cast by the lime trees with an ice cream or perhaps a citron pressé… And in the evening, the terrace hosts food trucks (in July and August), with different flavours on the menu every day. Vegetarian and vegan options are readily available, as are kids' portions. After dinner, you can retire to the bar, which serves artisanal beers as well as a range of Bordeaux and Saint-Émilion wines.

Liked: This is a fabulous site. The website doesn’t do it justice at all. The minute we arrived we wished we were staying longer - so we did! Private pitches, great shower facilities, the pool, the bar, the location in the beautiful Dordogne. But there is just something about the atmosphere here. We loved it and will definitely be back hopefully with our young families next time.

Disliked: Nothing

Liked: Great pitch, really chilled out campsite with a great team running it. Facilities were very good and spotless. Pool was really nice. The sire was quiet in the first week is September with very few children around. Would recommend this site.

Liked: This is a wonderful campsite in a beautiful location in the Dordogne countryside, near Sarlat, fully deserving of all the praise it receives. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, wished we had longer, and will return. On arrival we were greeted with a big smile by Tilly, who told us all about the site. We were allowed time to choose our own spot at leisure, which was appreciated. The owners are lovely people who obviously care immensely about their business, and people's enjoyment. The facilities are plentiful and immaculate at all times of day. Staff can always be seen around and about, maintaining, checking and cleaning. The pool is crystal clear and so refreshing. Children can enjoy the adjacent play park as well as the various child-friendly activities including indoor play area and table tennis. The evening food trucks, different each night, are great. We enjoyed the various tasty offerings; Indian, pizza, burgers... The bar area is really comfortable, spacious and relaxed. Chilled music plays all day. We loved it and fully recommend to all. Thank you.

Electric optional grass pitch (supreme)

Liked: Laid back ambience. Nice bar / restaurant area. Very clean bathroom facilities. Good beer. Food trucks a nice idea. Friendly, helpful staff. Bit of an Asian / tropical ambience - Kao San Rd meets SW France! All whilst wearing Boden.

Disliked: Tent pitches could have done with a little bit more shade (it was really hot). Electrical hookups were quite a distance from the pitch and not easy to find in the dark (admittedly, we should have done this earlier in the evening!)

Liked: The site was extremely clean, no matter what time you went to the washrooms they were spotless, and well stocked. The fridge hire was a great add on and well priced. The pool was spotless. The bar was great and always someone on hand. The food trucks were a great touch. All at a great price! The pitches were well spaced with plenty of shade and laid out well. All in all a great, safe, family friendly site.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike.

Local attractions

This area is rich in history – in fact, the site's farmhouse was a centre for local Resistance activity during the Second World War. Along the banks of the Dordogne river, the Hundred Years' War was fought. And, in places like the caves at nearby Lascaux (25 minutes' drive) or Les Eyzies (30 minutes), early humans sheltered from the elements, leaving vivid cave paintings that have survived to this day. Les Mathevies is a hamlet to the village of Sainte-Nathalène, about 15 minutes' drive from the medieval town of Sarlat-la-Canéda. This is the historic centre point of the Dordogne valley, with many restaurants and markets to explore – and the campsite is also within easy reach of other key tourist sites like Beynac (25 minutes), Castelnaud-la-Chapelle (30 minutes) or Domme (30 minutes), each of which is home to an impressive castle. There's also the Dordogne river itself, which can be reached within 15 minutes' drive for activities like swimming or canoeing – it’s also great for quiet time simply appreciating nature.
