  • Quiet, dog-friendly site on the banks of the Indre river with woods
  • Walking distance to the Indre à Vélo route; 20 minutes’ drive to Tours
  • Shops a short walk away; bicycle rental on site
Castles, animal parks, vineyards, gastronomy and hikes… it’s easy to list off the sweet parts of the Indre-et-Loire and handily, Camping la Vallee de I’Indre is just the place to soak it all in. Owned by the friendly Julie and Lionel, this Indre Valley site is all ready for relaxation with wooded surroundings and the Indre river flowing through the foot of the site (full of pretty fish, by the way). It’s pretty hush at this three-hectare site, which makes for some quality relaxation for family, friends or couples. At the same time, you won’t have to pass up on the city life, as Tours is only 20 minutes' drive away. As for shops and eateries on a smaller scale, the centre of the local village is under 10 minutes’ walk away. Thanks to the site's central location, you’ll be well-based for both cultural and sporting activities… so some of your excursions might include castles, animal parks and leisure parks. Wine aficionados will be happy to find that as well as all of those vineyards around the region, the site has one of its own. You’ll also be able to get your hands on a rented bicycle at the site, a simple way to whizz off and familiarise yourself with all the local sights.

Fully-serviced grass pitch

Liked: Proximity to river. Lovely woodland area for dog walking. Showers / toilets very clean. Staff friendly.

Disliked: Waste disposal point filthy including faeces

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank for your note and nice comment. We're surprises to read 4/10 to cleaning then you write "showers and toilets very clean".... ? For information waste disposal point and black water are at camper's station but not in the same place, there is a grid for gray water and a trap for black water.

A nice three days, great site.

Local attractions

Sometimes you just want to stick close to your nest and that’s more than okay here… Montbazon (10 minutes’ walk) has a small fortress and it’s the gateway to a fair few walks, including the riverside Indre à Vélo route and The Way of Saint James. A simple car or bike ride can go a long way too, whether that's over to the Arboretum de la Martinière (10 minutes’ drive), laser games at Laser Game Evolution Tours (15 minutes), the family-friendly rides at Lulu Parc (20 minutes), the Château de Candé (10 minutes) or canoeing and kayaking on the Val de l'Indre (five minutes). Of course, there's a whole league of castles around too, especially the splendid Château de Villandry (25 minutes). There's no shortage of bicycle rentals and bike tours either (or the more unusual go-kart tours) and it’s no surprise when you consider all the beauty spots in the Loire Valley. Where to whisk out the wheels? Perhaps the Cave of Goupillières (25 minutes) for a Touraine cavern? Amboise (40 minutes) for castles and Da Vinci’s former home? While hiking and biking stick to the ground, you’ll take on the treetops on the obstacle courses at Gadawi Park (15 minutes). As for animals, there’s the Safari Train (40 minutes) and ZooParc de Beauval (50 minutes).
