Positiv If you're looking for the usual French campsite, then this probably isn't the place for you. But if you're after something authentically French, head to Château de Leychoisier, just outside Limoges. This isn’t your typical commercial holiday park – it’s a stay steeped in history and charm. The château itself dates back as far as 1361, with parts of the current structure likely built in the 15th century. It has passed through the hands of several notable families and was even the backdrop to a dramatic Revolutionary-era rescue. The grounds were landscaped in 1861 by the famous French designer Paul de Lavenne de Choulot.

Everything here feels rooted in the French countryside – including the reception. Don’t expect an English-speaking student on a summer job; you’ll be greeted in French, and that’s all part of the experience. It’s a genuine slice of rural France, and all the more special for it.

For nature lovers, this place is a real delight. The château is surrounded by unspoilt forests and tranquil lakes, with trees so well established they seem to be reseeding themselves naturally. There are no marked trails – you simply find your own path, which is exactly the joy of being here. After a light rain, we set off for a walk and, for the first time on our French road trip, felt we were truly in the heart of the country.

There’s also a swimming pool on site, which looked lovely, though we opted instead for the forest walks. I would highly recommend Château de Leychoisier for anyone seeking a peaceful, deeply French retreat that connects you with both nature and history.

Negativ Would have liked laundry facilities

Positiv Grounds were nice but it was very dark ,too many trees.
Toilets and showers were smelly and dark
There is no bar as such just a room that you can sit in.
The weather wasn't great when we were there so cant comment on swimming pool.

Negativ Very dark place and if you need the loo in the night make sure you have a good torch.
Toilets very smelly.

Positiv Location

Negativ Facilities were very poor and need updating. Couldn't get any hot water and there is no where to eat within walking distance. Furthermore the gates were shut at 7 so you could not come and go even on foot.

Vom Platzbetreiber: Nous ne comprenons absolument pas la réaction de ce couple anglais. Sachant qu'ils sont restés trois nuits, pourquoi ne sont-ils pas venus nous voir ?
Pour la basse saison, le restaurant n'est pas encore ouvert, le locataire ouvrira en haute saison quand il y aura plus de monde.
On peut toujours entrer et sortir à pied du camping et cela est précisé à l'arrivée. D'autre part, en cas d'urgence un numéro est inscrit pour appeler la direction.
Encore toutes nos excuses auprès de ces gens mais ils pouvaient venir nous voir et nous en parler, il y a de l'eau chaude partout.

Positiv Well spaced pitches. Friendly staff and clean facilities
