  • Eco-friendly Dordogne site five minutes' drive from Vendoire
  • Brantôme, Angoulême and Grotte de Villars within 45 minutes' drive
  • Swimming pools, toy library, restaurant and summer activities
Pretty, peaceful, packed with things for the kids to do… and eco-friendly too. Dordogne site Camping des Tourbières, in a rural location 600 metres from Site Naturel des Tourbières, a Natura 2000 site which has 65 hectares of protected space for walks and fishing. Five minutes’ drive away from Vendoire too, it really has a lot going for it. Come along here and you'll be staying in a spacious park full of greenery and trees, where the owners are doing their best to make sure that their site has only a minimal impact on the environment. That includes providing facilities for recycling and composting, using returnable glassware in the bar and feeding restaurant waste to the goats and chickens (who seem pretty happy with this solution…) Alongside these facilities are all sorts of things designed to make family holidays go with a swing: the outdoor pool and paddling pool are particularly popular features, but guests also have access to a multisports ground, a large playground, a pétanque court, and lots of other games including table football and table tennis. And that’s not all… a library and toy library mean hours of entertainment without the need to bring lots of kit, and in high season you’ll be able to join in with various activities including treasure hunts, yoga classes and horse-drawn carriage rides. Meals are easily sorted here, too – start your day right by ordering bread and pastries to be delivered, then for lunch you can pick up supplies from the food shop or order picnic sandwiches to take on your outings. Evenings can be spent cooking over your barbecue or settling in at the restaurant. There’s also a barbecue night on Wednesdays, a pizza night on Fridays and a street food truck on Saturdays.

Liked The campsite is beautiful! Brilliant facilities which are very clean and well maintained. Fanny and her family are friendly and helpful. They do like rules, quiet for bedtime at 22.30 but it makes for a relaxing stay.
The onsite bar is reasonably priced and with different food and events across the week.
So many activities on the site for young and old which made for a relaxing holiday.

Disliked This is an eco friendly site with rules about waste which could be hard to follow at times - not against this but it was difficult to know where to put certain waste.
Showers could so with more hooks and could do with staying on for a little longer.
But overall not much to dislike!

Liked Very large pitch, lovely surroundings with great bar with snacks on site. Bread and pastries were excellent quality. Didn’t use pool etc as was just a stop over on the way back from Spain to Dieppe, but looked nice.
