  • Peaceful and family-friendly touring site in Charente countryside
  • Boating 20 minutes’ drive; Oradour-sur-Glane 40 minutes; Limoges 50
  • Communal seating and barbecues; bread delivery and essentials shop
There's a hint in the name – shaded by slender poplar trees, Camping Le Paradis really does feel like a little corner of heaven. Surrounded by greenery, the site is five minutes’ walk from sleepy Mareuil village in the rural Charente region, surrounded by vineyards (producing the grapes that go into Cognac wines) and seasonal sunflower fields. Whether you’re looking to refresh and recharge en route to Spain or are intending to bed down for a few days of sightseeing, Camping Le Paradis has several handy amenities to make your stay a relaxing one. Plunder the on-site library for books and DVDs for quiet times on long summer evenings, or share food and chat with fellow guests at the communal seating area near the barbecues. In the afternoon, a local baker visits the campsite with a variety of fresh bread and cakes, and there are locals of tempting restaurant options within 15 minutes’ drive. As far as practical details go, there’s a kitchen to take care of your washing up, and a laundry service carrying a small charge. You can also pick up touring essentials like LPG bottles from the on-site shop. And last up, there’s no need for any four-legged companions to miss out on your Charente jaunt. Dogs are very welcome, and you can exercise them in a securely fenced field.

What customers say

Friendly English owners Jon and Berni offer personal service at this peaceful rural campsite. Pitches are spacious and well-kept with updated power. Facilities, especially showers, are exceptionally clean and well-appointed. It’s a few miles from town, but the tranquil, picturesque setting and dog field are highly praised.

Robin I. 1 review

Power optional grass campsite

Liked Definitely the best Campervan site I have ever visited. Sanitary facilities really well provided and spotlessly clean. Big pitches with hedges, lots of trees and so peaceful. According to the Merlin app we heard 10 species of birds in 10 minutes including a Golden Orial (but we couldn’t see it). Thanks to proprietors Bernie and John.

Disliked Nothing.

Power optional grass campsite

Liked Everything. Jon and Berni are lovely! It was ridiculously hot when I arrived so the offer of a free cold beer was greatly appreciated. The showers and toilets are the nicest I have seen at any campsite, like walking into the bathroom at home.

Excellent site and hosts, looking forward to return visit.

Local attractions

For the active among you, Camping Le Paradis is close to the Lacs de Haute-Charente (20 minutes’ drive), where you can occupy the whole family with watery antics like sailing, kayaking, windsurfing and fishing. There are a couple of artificial beaches too, should you wish to cool off with a swim. Birdwatchers, be sure to bring the binoculars along for a chance to spot herons and coots among the reeds. For a sharp reminder of the horrors of war, wander deserted streets lined with crumbling houses at Oradour-sur-Glane (40 minutes), a preserved monument to a Nazi atrocity in 1944. On a lighter note, celebrate the skills of Limoges (50 minutes) craftsmen in the city’s fine porcelain museums and then retreat to the half-timbered Cour du Temple courtyard for a restorative shot of coffee. Have a meander around the streets of historic Cognac (15 minutes) and stroll alongside the Charente River to the striking stone Tour Saint Jacques. History dealt with, you can then get down to the serious business of touring and tasting at one of the town’s brandy distilleries.
