General
- Lakeside site with fishing and a sandy beach
- Three pools, one covered and heated to 30°C
- Many hiking, cycling and horse riding trails nearby
Lovely Lake Lavaud, the biggest lake in the Poitou-Charentes at 200 hectares and a place for boating, sailing, fishing and canoeing as well as for birdwatching: over 170 species have been spotted from its shores.
And lovely Camping des Lacs, so short a walk (100 metres) from the lakeside that a good part of the site has views overlooking it: if you need more water on your French hol, the site is also just a minute's walk from Guerlie beach.
Camping des Lacs has modern facilities to suit all sorts of guests from families and couples to solo travellers: there's both indoor and outdoor pools for swims in all weathers, as well as a paddling pool for safe tiddler splashing. Both pools are equipped for guests with reduced mobility.
For kids, trampolines and a bouncy castle are at the playground set handily close to the pools and the snack bar, while sporty sorts have volleyball and badminton courts, a pétanque area and hiking and biking trails nearby. A games room is also on site and rounds of miniature golf can be tackled at the beach.
Other facilities include a snack bar and restaurant dishing up tasty meals at decent prices. The amenities block has toilets and free hot showers, and there's also a washing-up area.
A grocery shop selling daily essentials is a 300-metre walk from the site; a beach snack bar, a restaurant and an English pub are all nearby.
Open from 04/01/2021 to 10/31/2021

Location
Local attractions
This is the land of the green and the outdoors: the Charente Limousine and Haute Vienne regions are known for their scenic green landscapes and their outdoors activities like hiking, cycling and horse riding trails, all in a handsome natural setting.
Get out on the hoof via the two equestrian centres on the lakeside where you can canter around on horse or pony, or go out onto the water at the watersports centre with canoe, windsurf, kayak, paddleboard, rowing boat and catamaran hire as well as lessons for those who need them.
The lakes of the Haute Charente are popular in the area for fishing (you'll need a fishing licence) and for watery activities like sailing, kayaking and canoeing. Lake Lavaud, a short walk away, is a big pull for twitchers because of the many bird species spotted here over the years, as well as for boaters and watersporters: dinghies, canoes and kayaks are all available to hire at the lake's boat centre and instructors are available if you're new to the art.
