  • Peaceful British-owned site on the outskirts of Champagnac-la-Rivière
  • Outdoor pool and café-restaurant on site
  • Around half an hour's drive from porcelain-producing Limoges
Scenic walks, lake swims, leisurely bike rides, château viewing – oui, there are plenty of ways to fill many days around Camping Parc Verger, just outside the little village of Champagnac-la-Rivière. Settle in here and you’ll be surrounded by the Périgord Limousin Regional Natural Park, a fab place for folk who like to roam on foot or by bike, thanks to the gentle hills and quiet paths. Lovely Limoges is just over half an hour away from here, and there are lots of little villages to poke around in, perhaps hitting the markets to pick up some foodie treats for your evening eats… Previous guests have heaped praise on friendly owner Franc, who’ll happily dish out advice on the best ways to spend your days around here. He's also set up the site with some welcome treats for weary wanderers – cool off in the surface-mounted pool before wandering over to the licensed café-restaurant for eats and drinks.

What customers say

Friendly hosts Franc & Lisa get top marks. Peaceful woodland spot with spotless facilities, amazing home-cooked food, and a great pool. Pitches are decent size. Wi-Fi's a bit pricey, and the restaurant/pool can close off-peak.

Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch

Liked The owner was friendly sadly the site is for sale so it’s tired

Disliked The restaurant was closed said there was a cafe which only served hot and cold drinks when asked the pool had a closed sign on as soon as I complained to pitch up he took the sign down very convenient the toilets where very tired and the washing machine was broken we didn’t stay are full stay we moved on four days before we should have as we was the only one there and found the site depressing obviously as he’s trying to sell it as he is no longer with his partner he isn’t interested in the upkeep

From the manager: Thank you for your comments which we find helpful. We are sorry you did not enjoy your stay with us. I would like to clarify a few points:-

As i had to attend my mothers funeral in UK I was away from Wednesday until Saturday I left the site under the supervision of a temporary warden who was in constant communication with me while i was in UK

On the evening i left there was a lightening storm which knocked out the power for a short time in the toilet block which was reset by my temporary warden immediately unfortunately the coin boxes for the washing machine and tumbler dryer needed re-programming as the boxes defaulted to 1€ for 1 minute of time and i did not want guests to be inconvenienced by this. As i was away and the reprogramming was outside the temporary wardens range of knowledge, i gave instructions for an out of order sign to be placed on the machine and i would re-programme the coin boxes on my return.

The restaurant was open for drinks but not food as the Cook( my wife) had recently left the business and i do not cook. This was explained to you on your arrival.
The pool was and still is available and as you stated the other guests who were there when you arrived had departed and as the site had 3 guests during the few days of your stay the pool was available on request.

I would like to question your opinion that i am not interested in the upkeep of the site and can assure you the fact that my wife has left and the Campsite is for sale has no bearing to my commitment to Parc Verger. In fact it is to the contrary.

A true and more accurate representation of the service and facilities that we provide at Parc Verger can be seen on all the other reviews not only through pitchup.com but also on many other platforms over the ten years i have been here.

I hope this clarifies the situation and i am sorry that you felt strongly enough to issue this review.

Regards Franc Culshaw Owner Camping Parc Verger and Le Chalet du Bois

Peaceful location with great welcome.

Liked Franc and Lisa were both very friendly and helpful, providing information about local places to visit and explaining everything we needed to know on arrival. All of the site, including washrooms and restaurant were immaculate and well kept. The home cooked food was delicious and the service exemplary. We will definitely book to stay here again on our next holiday to France.

Liked Everything!!

Toilet block is very clean and well maintained, the pool is fabulous. The food is just wow! Lisa & Franc are so invested in their guests. Nothing is too much trouble. I’d go as far as to say this is probably my favourite site and we will absolutely be back

Disliked There is nothing to dislike apart from having to leave

Local attractions

Lace up your boots and head off for a stroll – there are lots of easy routes from Champagnac-la-Rivière, 15 minutes' walk away, and more throughout the Périgord Limousin Regional Natural Park. Two-wheeled types have plenty of choice too, including a Voie Verte cycleway along an old railway line very close by. Horse riding, golf and fishing are also available within a half-hour drive, and there’s a sandy beach 15 minutes away, where you can swim in the cool waters of Lac de Saint-Mathieu. Among the historic houses nearby are Château de Brie, surrounded by 800 acres of woodland, Château de Montbrun and Château de Châlus-Maulmont, once home to Richard the Lionheart. All are within an hour’s drive. Also excellent for a day out is Limoges, just over half an hour away, to see the Gothic cathedral, the 13th-century half-timbered buildings and the National Porcelain Museum (and perhaps purchase some porcelain for yourself too).
