  • Relaxed, nature-filled site on the banks of Étang de la Vallée
  • A 20-minute drive from the Loire; 40 minutes from Orléans
  • Lake beach, miniature golf, play area and café on site
Slow the pace of life with a stay at Camping Étang de la Vallée, a nature-filled site on the banks of a Loiret lake in the Forest of Orléans. With large shaded pitches and views out over the water, this is a place where you and your family can really relax, perhaps taking a walk in the woods or using your lakeside location for a bit of fishing, watersports or swimming from the lake beach (supervised in high season). If any kids in your party need a bit more activity, send them along to the site’s playground, miniature golf course or games area with table tennis. A café, food shop and bread delivery service are all on hand to provide eats, and barbecues are allowed if you fancy a bit of outdoor grilling. A local produce market is open once a week in July and August to give you a taste of the best of the local area. Other amenities on site include a launderette, wifi, showers and toilets. When you’re not spending your time chilling out on site, there’s plenty to keep you busy in the local area, including horse riding, bike rides and boat trips. Orléans is about 40 minutes’ drive away for an urban day out, or you could head down to the banks of the Loire in about 25 minutes for kayak outings or a visit to Château de Sully-sur-Loire.

What customers say

Lovely lakeside spot, peaceful and shaded, with a beach nearby. Friendly welcome and good facilities, though some noted issues with toilet block cleanliness and upkeep, like empty dispensers. Reception can be unmanned, and chemical toilet disposal sometimes tricky. Fresh bread and the lake are big pluses.

Electric grass pitch (comfort)

Liked This is the third year we have stated. The campsite is lovely and peaceful. The swimming pool is clean and nice with deck chairs. Facilities clean and good. Across the road from a beautiful lake which this year we couldn’t swim in but does have a nice cafe. The local village is also very picturesque with lots of small shops and cafes.

Liked Fantastic location in a beautiful setting with access to the lake and cycle paths. Friendly knowledgeable staff provided a smooth check in and warm welcome. The option of fresh bread in the mornings was a plus. We will definitely go back for a longer stay in the Loire Valley.

Local attractions

There are lots of fabulous places for a walk or bike ride along the trails of the Forest of Orléans, and several local stables can sort riding trips for you too if you prefer. To see the scenery at slower pace, organise a carriage ride in the area around the site, or head down to Sigloy (20 minutes’ drive) for a traditional boat trip along the River Loire. While you’re by the Loire, you can also try a kayaking or canoeing trip (having practised your skills first on the lake by the site) or pay a visit to Château de Sully-sur-Loire (25 minutes), a grand medieval fortress with all the hallmarks of a classic castle (including moat, turrets and ramparts). The Musée de la Marine de Loire (15 minutes) and Fleury Abbey (20 minutes) are good places to visit too if you’re interested in the history of the area. For a full day out, take a trip to Orléans (40 minutes) to visit the ornate cathedral, the Musée des Beaux-Arts and Parc Floral de la Source. It’s worth taking time to meander through the ancient streets too – and there's another lovely lake beach just outside the town if you need to cool off.
