  • Family site on the edge of Mamers next to a pool and swimming lake
  • A 35-minute drive from Alençon and 55 minutes from Le Mans
  • A short walk from shops, restaurants, a sports ground and mini golf
Take a good long look at this lovely setting on the edge of Mamers, next to a swimming lake and a public pool… and then take a look at that wider map, which has Parc naturel régional du Perche on one side and Forêt de Perseigne on the other side. That’s Camping Les Portes du Perche for you. Conveniently positioned within walking distance of the town’s shops, restaurants and other amenities, it’s also well-based for all sorts of outdoors pursuits. Where to begin? First, get to know all the little pieces in the immediate vicinity. The site is next to a free, covered public swimming pool and a supervised swimming pond. There’s also a multi-sports ground and play areas for children a short walk away. For a fee, horse-riding, tennis and miniature golf are accessible around the lake. And as a bonus, the town centre is just 15 minutes’ walk away. Further afield, tackle the hiking trails in Forêt de Perseigne (around 20 minutes’ drive away) or cycle on established local greenways. If you’d rather explore on horseback, there’s an equestrian centre 200 metres from the site. At the crossroads of the A11 and A28 motorways, the site is well-positioned for getting to other sublime destinations in Pays de la Loire. Camping Les Portes du Perche is half an hour’s drive from Alençon and 55 minutes from Le Mans.

What customers say

Great campsite with big, shady pitches by peaceful lakes for swimming/fishing. Close to Mamers town. Staff are friendly. Facilities are generally clean, though some found them basic (BYO loo roll/soap!). Snack bar a mixed bag.

Helen F.

Power optional grass and earth site

Liked Size of pitches. For us having a skatepark very close was good. Nice cafes in town.
Wi-Fi was good
Fish washing area was great. Not push-in buttons and hot water. Not loads of toilets or showers so we did wait as a family at one point.
Very fast roundabout. Friendly staff. Lake accessibility.

Disliked Some pitches had lots of ants.
We rely on solar ideally and pitches at site not the best for sun light. Good ones had ants and others not level enough for pop top being flat.
Could not see grey waste point anywhere. There is a park up 12 mins away that has grey waster and over night parking.

Liked Size of pitches are huge, very pretty site. Didn’t use the swimming lake but seemed popular with the families with children. Nice little snack and bar area.

Disliked Toilets are rather dated but clean however, no toilet seats, toilet roll or hand soap so go prepared!

Liked Zeer ruime plekken. Perfect voor een door stroomcamping.
Zelf mag je een plekje uitzoeken.
Lekker rustig op de camping.

Disliked Eten had iets beter/ verser gemogen in het snackbarretje.
S morgens kon je geen broodjes halen. Kan wel in het dorpje, 10 min lopen.

Grahame B.

Power optional grass and earth site

Liked Size of pitches excellent. Would definitely recommend pitch no 14. Location next to the small ponds excellent for early morning and late evening dog walks. Proximity to large forests for hiking. Easy walk into town. Main supermarkets close by. Very quiet site. Cannot fault the friendliness of the staff team. Use of washing machine a fair price, (4euro) unlike some others we used this holiday.De

Disliked Basic toilet block (no seats, toilet paper, soap for hand washing, toilet brushes not in all toilets and no feminine hygiene bins available)

Main bin only at top of site. It would be advantageous to have one in toilet block or near the washing up sinks.

Local attractions

To Bellême (15 minutes’ drive), perhaps, for a town among the woodlands and countryside? Be sure to peer inside the church, which was reconstructed in 17th-century style from its 15th-century original and features an adorable off-centre clock. Lace-making traditions are what bring many to Alençon (half an hour). The town is UNESCO-listed for its arts and culture. There’s a fine arts museum as well as 15th-century architecture to check out while you’re pottering around there. La Ferté-Bernard (35 minutes) is a strong contender for some of the finest views around this region - and that’s saying something, with such strong competition. The Huisne river runs past the medieval buildings and canals also separate some of the streets. Le Mans (55 minutes) may be furthest away out of the bunch, but it’s got lots to occupy your hours, including a museum on the city’s famed motor race, the race track and an old town.
