Peaceful English-run site five minutes' walk from Lac de Lavaud
A 45-minute drive to Limoges; an hour to Angoulême
A short walk from a lake beach, fishing and watersports rentals

Your Charente chillout spot awaits… La Petite Cachette is surrounded by gorgeous greenery and peaceful scenery, and – best of all – it’s only a five-minute walk from the shores of Lac de Lavaud, a sizeable lake spreading over about 500 acres. That splendid setting means this is a place where you could probably easily relax on site for quite some time, perhaps interspersing your siestas with plenty of time spent down at the lake – that short walk gets you to a public beach (with a beach bar for those all-important cool drinks…), a watersports hire place (for days of exploring by kayak or paddleboard) and several fishing spots. If you’d like to stretch your legs a little more than that, there are plenty of hiking and bike trails in the vicinity, and many more in the nearby Périgord-Limousin Regional Natural Park, which has well over a thousand miles of marked trails. Or how about a city stroll? Both Limoges and Angoulême are within an easy hour’s drive from this site, so you’ll have the option of adding day trips to the mix if you like. If you need any advice on local places to go, ask on site – it’s run by an English couple who can dole out tips in either French or English as required. Back at the site, you’ll be able to clean up after whatever trips you’ve made at the shower/toilet block before settling in for your evening meal. You’re welcome to bring along a barbecue to help you cook said meal if you like; shops for all the necessaries are in Massignac (10 minutes’ drive) or Rochechouart (15 minutes), and there’s a bakery in nearby Pressignac (five minutes).

Electric grass pitch

Liked: * Matt and Cora's hospitality, friendliness and generosity * the enormous size of the pitches (and therefore the privacy) * the peace and quiet * the proximity to a beautiful beach (200 yards away) aside a huge lake, with beach bar, water-sports, fishing and play area for children * the modern, well equipped facilities * the safe environment * the excellent 4G signal * equidistant from Chabanais and Rochechouart - two beautiful historic towns * the flat pitches, with easy access to water and electricity

Michelle D. Sept 2023

Electric grass pitch

Liked: The site was peaceful and not busy the bathrooms and toilets were very nice and accommodating very clean there was a bar and restaurant not too far down the road.

Disliked: The site was untidy there was leaves all over the site the owners can make an effort too clean up and move leaves too another area so you don’t have too walk over them all the time.Use a blower dig a big hole and make a compost heap with leaves . There was no facilities too dump your water and clean your toilet cassette.

Henriette T. Aug 2023

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Ja we waren blij met alles heerlijke rustige camping. De ontvangst was heel hartelijk,leuke en gezellige eigenaren die het iedereen naar de zin willen maken, en dat is voor ons gelukt. We konden kiezen waar we wilden staan dus kregen spontaan keuze stress wel positief. Het sanitair was heel schoon en hele fijne douches je kon zelf de temperatuur regelen en niks geen drukknoppen gewoon alsof je thuis onder de douche staat. De plaatsen zijn erg ruim, en er is veel schaduw, maar ook zonnige plaatsen. De omgeving nodigt uit om te wandelen of te fietsen. Het meer is 5 min lopen en dan kan je zwemmen of lekker op het terras zitten.

Local attractions

Lac de Lavaud will be your first port of call, surely – it’s got a sandy beach (with lifeguards in July and August), a miniature golf course, watersports rentals and places to fish (if you have the right licence). Bikes are available to rent if you’d like to explore on two wheels, and in summer there are horse riding lessons on offer too. There are lots of lovely landscapes to explore in the area – perhaps on one of the Périgord-Limousin Regional Natural Park’s many trails, or the vélorail, ziplines and treetop courses at Espace Hermeline (45 minutes’ drive). If you’d like to take in some historic sights too, then head to the likes of Château de Rochechouart, which houses a contemporary art museum, and the Roman site of Cassinomagus (both 15 minutes). Other outings might take you to explore medieval Confolens (half an hour), the porcelain makers of Limoges (45 minutes) or the museums and street art of Angoulême (an hour).
