  • Family-friendly site in the Volcans d'Auvergne Regional Natural Park
  • Hike Puy Mary summit and Chaîne des Puys, a UNESCO World Heritage Site
  • Table tennis, pétanque and playground on site
Up for some adventure, no matter what the season? Sign up for warm-weather hikes in summer and scenic skiing in winter at the family-friendly Camping Le Moulin du Teinturier, in Saint-Martin-Valmeroux. Head to this part of Cantal and you’ll open up endless hiking, mountain biking, fishing and cross-country skiing adventures in the Volcans d'Auvergne Regional Natural Park. The volcanic landscape is pretty impressive here, so you’re surely in for some gorgeous views while you explore the mountain peaks, valleys and lakes. The calorie-burning continues back at base – kids can be kept busy at the playground, and grownups can get stuck in with miniature golf, table tennis and pétanque tournaments. Still got some steam to let off? There’s a skate park and tennis court nearby, and during the summer months, head to the public outdoor swimming pool, which is a five-minute walk away.

Local attractions

Learn all about brewing with a visit to Brasserie 360 (a half-hour walk or five-minute drive) to take part in workshops and tastings. If cheese is more to your taste, make your way to Musée du Fromage et de la Vache Salers (20 minutes' drive) to find out more about the Saler cheesemaking process. The Cantal area has castles aplenty to admire, including Château de Saint-Chamant (10 minutes), Château du Cambon (10 minutes) and Château d'Anjony (20 minutes). If you’re more excited about the area’s hiking, you’ll want to head to the Chaîne des Puys, a part of the natural park so scenic it's been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This chain of around 80 extinct volcanoes stretches for about 40 kilometres, so there’s plenty to conquer – the highest point being the lava dome of Puy de Dôme (which can also be reached by train if it seems a little overwhelming). Closer to home, but still in the park, the Puy Mary summit is another good choice. It’s classified as a Grand National Site in France and you’re in for smashing views when you’re up there. With all this talk of volcanoes, you might want to visit Vulcania (an hour and three quarters), an educational amusement park and museum with – you guessed it – a volcano theme.

What customers say

This well-maintained campsite offers spacious, private, and shaded pitches, many by the river, appreciated for their quiet atmosphere. Guests consistently praise the general cleanliness of the site and facilities, though some noted the toilets could benefit from refurbishment and were missing toilet seats and paper on occasion. The friendly welcome and beautiful location, ideal for sightseeing, were highlighted. Minor communication issues upon arrival and departure were noted, as were occasional late-night community events. The on-site swimming pool is unavailable as it is not located at the campsite.

Liked Individual private pitches. Beautiful location ideal for sightseeing.

Disliked Noisey, although we new it was a community site we were not expecting loud community events going past midnight on some nights.

Toilets did not have seats or toilet paper and no hand soap at sinks. Site manager was not very visible during our stay.
