With grounds split between a shaded meadow and a pine forest, Camping Du Sabot is a place that’s all about relaxing in a chilled-out natural environment. This Auvergne site looks out over the Gorges du Lignon and makes a great base for holidays spent in the open air – whether that’s hiking, cycling, playing golf, canoeing, fishing, horse riding… or simply putting your feet up on your peaceful pitch. This spot on the edge of Saint-Maurice-de-Lignon is a handy one both for activities and for amenities – you can hike straight from the site up to the ‘Himalayan Footbridge’, or stroll into the village centre in about 15 minutes for shops and places to eat. It’s a well-appointed site too, with lots of handy facilities including a launderette, a motorhome service point, a covered picnic area and clean modern bathrooms with free hot showers. In July and August, there’s also the addition of a small grocery store with fresh bread and croissants, and a snack bar that serves breakfasts, ice creams and paninis as well as hosting a weekly pizza night. A playground, pétanque court, table tennis and a library of books for kids and adults should keep you busy on site for a little while; in summer you’ll also be able to swim in the heated outdoor pool, join in with pétanque competitions and try your hand at archery. Electric bikes can be hired on site, and there’s a good tourist info point in reception to give you a few ideas of where to go nearby.

Local attractions

Aiming to fill your days with alfresco activities? How about fishing in the Lignon (two kilometres away) or the Loire (five kilometres), going horse riding from Beauzac (15 minutes’ drive) or playing golf in Bas-en-Basset (15 minutes)? For watery days out, you can also canoe from Bas-en-Basset or head to Lac de Lavalette (20 minutes) for swimming, sailing and pedal boats. Still got more energy? Try the treetop trails at Parc Family Aventure (15 minutes), use the via ferrata climbing routes in Puy des Juscles (15 minutes) or pedal your way along the Vélorail Velay (half an hour). And of course, there are numerous options around here for hikes and bike rides, both gentle and more challenging. Time for a rest? Take a stroll around the historic streets of Le Puy (35 minutes), pick up local produce at the weekly market in Yssingeaux (15 minutes) or visit the birds of prey display at Château de Rochebaron (25 minutes).
