The campsite's environment (added by manager 07 feb 2017)

Near St. James's Way and the medieval village of Lamothe
Three kilometres from Brioude and 200 metres from the Allier river
Pool, paddling pool, snack bar and games room

Hikers, bikers and wildlife watchers: get your boots laced up, your cycling self ready and your keenest eagle-eyed expression prepped, for you can be doing the lot within minutes of leaving Auvergne's Camping La Bageasse. A full 18 hiking trails are in the surroundings of this green site edged by valleys and hills, mountains and streams, along with nine cycling trails and access to the world-famed pilgrimage route of the St James's Way, a few kilometres away at the Basilica of St. Julien in Brioude. There's summer swimming and fishing of the Allier river within a couple of hundred metres too, or just dreamily wandering the riverbanks along as much as you fancy of the Allier's mighty 421 kilometres… La Bageasse is in the Auvergne's Haute-Loire department, under 10 minutes' drive from the medieval village of Lamothe. It has loads of leisure options for your amusement for when you're not out hiking, cycling or boating: the site has a summer pool and paddling pool, free wifi, a playground, a pétanque court and a TV and games room. Regular entertainment runs in July and August, and a kids' club runs twice a week. A snack bar is open in high season for quick and light bites. You can pick up groceries and local produce at the food shop, and at the Saturday morning market in Brioude.

Liked: Lovely location right by the river and some picturesque medieval villages to visit in the surrounding hills. Our pitch was large, level and shaded by mature trees. It was easy to manouvre into. We enjoyed our meal at the restaurant on site. Make sure you follow the signposts to the site as our satnav tried to send us down a road that is no longer a through road but the site is well signposted from Brioude so that's not a problem. Wi-Fi available at reception. Toilets are single sex and have toilet roll and soap. There is a lovely outdoor pool with comfortable sun loungers.

Disliked: Unusually we weren't given a map by reception and the road doesn't go round in a circle so it was a bit confusing initially. Most of the historic tourist attractions don't open until some time in July.

Liked: Loved the setting of the campsite next to the river, the pitches were very generous with plenty of shade. It had a great swimming pool with the water the perfect temperature. Check in was very straight forward and the staff very friendly and helpful.

Disliked: Nothing to dislike!

Powered grass site

Liked: Friendly welcome, English speaking staff. Riverside location with lovely walks.

Disliked: Snack bar looked a bit dingy and the scary man hanging around outside was off putting so didn’t risk it. Bathroom facilities were pretty bleak and dark although showers worked well. Pitches were a decent size but rather gloomy (it wasn’t sunny so could have been the reason for this) Electric points were way too far apart

Local attractions

On and off water, on land and way up in trees… adventuring of all sorts is easily accessed from here. There's wild swimming and fishing in the Allier river in July and August, boat trips within three kilometres, and rafting and kayaking within seven. Tennis, archery and rock climbing are all four kilometres away; a treetop adventure park, Parc Aventure Langeac, is half an hour's drive from the site. Camping La Bageasse is three kilometres from the fab old town of Brioude, home of the also-fab Basilica of St. Julien, the biggest Christian church in Auvergne and a stopoff (or setting-out point) of the St James's Way (if you do desire to hike the rest of the path from here, it's only about 1,200 kilometres from Brioude to where the route winds up at Spain's Santiago de Compostela). From Brioude, wander along the river and cross the bridge at Vieille-Brioude for handsome valley views, or drive the short distance to the pretty little town of Lavaudieu to the south east, on the Sanouire river. From nearby Langeac, take the spectacular tourist train journey through the Allier gorges to Langogne, or sort a horse ride through the surrounding landscape from the town tourist office.
