Camping Ushuaïa Villages Les Belles Rives

Positiv Stunning location with amazing things to see and do in the region. We only stayed one night but could happily have stayed longer.
We arrived in September when the park was quiet. It would have been a different proposition in high Summer.
To be next to the beautiful Dordogne river in early Autumn was the icing on the cake

Negativ Showers were a tad tepid

Positiv large river side pitch. Clean toilet and showers. Good size pool that was in shade at end of day.

Negativ Limited shade on some pitches, but reception were more than happy to let us move. Could do with a general tidy up and the bin area was overflowing and very smelly

Positiv Location and pitch - Right by the river in one of the most beautiful parts of France.
Friendly and helpful staff.
The relaxed approach to everything.
The evening entertainment was to a very high standard - especially the Friday night singers who were superb.

Negativ The route out through the village of Cazoules - There is a 2-300m section of narrow road between buildings. We surmise that departing caravans and motorhomes are banned from this section to avoid meeting an incoming large vehicle in the middle of this section. However there's no signposting of a suitable alternative route which left us to work out how we could reach the main road. Clear signage would have been a great help!

Positiv Friendly staff. Snack and drinks bar on site. Beautiful position on Dordogne river. Canoeing available on site with 5€ discount for site users. Transferred upstream in minibus for a leisurely paddle downstream for 4 hours of beautiful scenery for €30. Two toilet and shower blocks one more modern than other but both very clean. Fantastic cycle track voie verte et veloroute starts in local village of Cazoules and we cycled on beautiful cycle paths to Sarlat Le Caneda a beautiful medieval town with lots of really nice shops and architecture. Took about 1hr45 each way. Baguette dispensing machine in town was a novelty for us Brits.

Negativ Could do with a tidy up.

Positiv Riverside pitch
Friendly and welcoming owners

Negativ Toilet block was not clean and had no lights in it for the first couple of nights - then when lights later were installed it was a bug party!

Grass was not cut which made for a very soggy walk to toilet block and made the site feel very derelict and a bit eerie.

We were here just as the site had opened - I'm sure in peak season when the site is fully staffed it's better - however there are very few toilets for the 100 pitches they have.

I stayed at 3 other sites during my trip in april and this was the most expensive but has the worst facilities.

The owners seemed super lovely and I wish them well - however they should maybe not open to tourers until they actually ready to open in future?
