Local attractions

Bring your walking boots along – there are lots of places to get out for a very scenic walk around here. The Millevaches Regional Natural Park is well known as a place full of gorgeous landscapes including heather moors, peat bogs, forests and wetlands… and of course those stunning night skies too. If you need to cool off after a long walk, stop by at the nearby village of Tarnac (10 minutes’ drive), where you can take a dip in the lake from a beach area. For more lakeside action, there are several beaches at Lake Vassivière (half an hour) for boating, windsurfing, canoeing and fishing. The treetop trails of D'Arbre en Arbre Vassivière are on hand for anyone that wants to see the scenery from above. For a gentle stroll rather than a hike, the pretty village of Treignac (25 minutes) should fit the bill with its narrow streets and medieval houses (and another lake beach for a paddle if it all gets a bit warm…) Lovely Eymoutiers (half an hour) is another fine choice with art museums and historic buildings to explore.

Hettie on-site touring caravan

Liked: Superbe point de vue, calme absolu, le côté atypique de la caravane est sympathique.

Disliked: Nous n’avons pas eu de chance avec les insectes: fourmis dans les murs de la caravane et mordus par des tiques. Le van étant très chaud, des moustiquaires serait un plus pour pouvoir ouvrir en grand la nuit. Enfin, un petit coup d’aspirateur aurait été appréciable avant qu’on arrive dans le Van.

From the manager: Hi Wilko, Thank you for your feedback, we very much appreciate it as it always helps us to improve our guest experience. It was a shame about the ant situation on your first evening, I can assure you it has never happened before and the problem was obviously brief, but unfortunately the nature and location of the van means that it is surrounded by nature, All the wonderful bird life, flora and fauna around, also means other wild life can be present. That's nature and unfortunately, some things can't be helped! We did however promptly provide you with a naturally formulated ant repellent as soon as we were made aware of the problem which obviously worked as there are no ants anymore! Great idea about the mosquito net, We could get one and keep in the camping car for those who may be sensitive to the odd mossy about the place.. there really is very few! Regarding your other points, I can only say we usually have a great rating, most of our clients come via air x and x. We are always busy and we have a 4.9 rating/ 5. Our reviews on this site are absolutely awesome with everyone saying they would recommend us and many have informed us in person that that they will return! I'm so sorry your experience was different. Finally you gave us a very low rating for child friendliness, We have two children and one/ possibly two on the way! Exciting times ahead! Our children have never been so happy as they are here surrounded by nature and love spending time up at the camping car! They love the hot tub too! Just for clarity, we don't advertise the camping car as the perfect venue for families (our target audience is young couples without children like yourself). Firstly, there is only one bed, this kind of makes it unsuitable, however as an option for families who really want to experience the camping car, beautiful natural surroundings, wood fired hot tub and get away from it all, we offer a pop up tent free of charge. We also have a trampoline and a games room that children are welcome to use, oh and of course the little visits with my husband to see Mr Eastwood pony! Anyhow , Happy travels and we hope your travel experiences improve.

Non-electric grass motorhome pitch

Liked: I would like to qualify my excellent as it was excellent for us but it does depend what you are looking for. The location is beautiful but it is a field with no washing, electrical or wifi facilities so you need to come prepared, which we did but we only intended to stay 1 night. However as the location was so beautiful and quiet we decided we would love to stay a second night. We were rescued by Ivan and Emma who own the site, as Emma very generously provided us with a cooked meal for which I am eternally grateful as otherwise it was looking like a lean dinner indeed. I would highly recommend the site if you are prepared to rough it a bit and not be too fussy about the lack of facilities. Ivan, Emma and their lovely children are both welcoming and kind. Other reasons to visit are the super forest walks and the spectacular night sky.

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review, You were lovely guests to host and we would gladly welcome you back. For clarity for other customers, this review is regarding the field which is advertised as having no facilities, not our camping car, witch has plenty of facilities, including electric and the wood fired hot tub.
