Peaceful, green and under 15 minutes' drive from the historic centre of Tours, Camping Onlycamp Tours Val de Loire is a popular campsite on the banks of the river Cher in France's attractive Indre-et-Loire department. Guests here have a good range of facilities, are right next to a municipal swimming pool and have the surrounding area's châteaux and vineyards within easy reach. The site is on totally level ground, making arrivals and departures easy no matter what you're driving. As well as essential amenities like toilets and showers, Camping Onlycamp Tours Val de Loire has a handy on-site shop where you can pick up ice creams, snacks, drinks and local products. You can also wander down to reception to chat to the site team about any questions you might have or to buy tickets for some of the region's best attractions (several of which offer a discounted rate for Camping Onlycamp Tours Val de Loire guests). The public pool just a few steps away is open all year round, with a large main pool, a paddling area, a sauna and a sun deck to take advantage of. And breakfast? Between April and October you can order fresh bread and pastries the night before and enjoy them on your pitch.

What customers say

Great spot near Tours by bus or bike, lovely riverside peace. Staff are super friendly and helpful! Pitches are clean and big, but loos and showers are a bit old, sometimes not so clean or stocked, especially when it’s busy. Work’s happening to make it better.

Liked Location.
Quiet and close to bus services into Tours

Disliked Toilet and shower block need some tlc. Dark and dingy, a bit grubby (especially showers).

Almost end of season though, so maybe that was a factor.

David W.

Power optional grass site

Liked Security was great with the gate locked at night. The receptionist was pleasant and helpful. Site was quiet but outside it was noisy. Pleasant site and good location next to the Loire.

Disliked The pitches were limited and no grass was left. Just bare ground. I had to pitch just under trees were the ground was a little hard. Site is near aircraft runway, railway and cars were noisy. Busy area but it didn't bother me. Also there was a band playing in the recreational building till late.

Local attractions

Tours is very well set up for outdoor living. In the high season, you can hire bikes at reception and pedal three kilometres to the start of the city's designated bike trail, or you might prefer to just head out along the banks of the Loire river and see where you end up. Keeping things alfresco, there's also a large open-air lido 10 minutes' drive away at Piscine du Lac, while watersports fans can hire kayaks and canoes at Tours & Canoë (15 minutes away). The city centre is rich in history, with half a dozen top-tier museums, art galleries and exhibition spaces to explore. Some of the places you'll definitely want to see include the pedestrianised streets lined with half-timbered houses around Place Plumereau, the ornate Cathédrale Saint-Gatien, Saint-Cosme Priory and the gorgeous botanic gardens. Slightly further afield, the Loire region's many castles are close for day trips, with the site recommending spots like the Château de Villandry (25 minutes), the Château de Chenonceau (30 minutes) and the Château Royal d'Amboise (30 minutes). The area has lots of vineyards you can get to know as well – to sample a wide variety of top local wines, head to the Cave de Vouvray (15 minutes) for one of their tasting tours.
