Camping Belle Vue

Me gustó The perfect place to spend 5 days of hot French summer.

A handful of pitches, surrounded by views of fields and Hautefort chateau. Our pitch was under the shade of the the willow tree, where we we greeted by cows from the neighbouring field on several morning - before being presented with a basket of fresh boulangerie items (probably the best croissants in France!).

The carefully maintained pool and outdoor shower were a welcome relief after mornings/afternoons exploring. We enjoyed road cycling (also lots of off-road routes available) and footpaths, including on the old railway line and through the Boisseuilh railway tunnel. Hautefort chateau (5km walk via quiet road/footpath) is well worth a visit- and there are a handful of bars/restaurants in the picturesque town (Saturday evening was surprisingly quiet, but if you want to eat any day booking is recommended).

Delicious, excellent value evening meals also available on request at Belle Vue, cooked by Cal and served by Simon in the old cow barn, local wine available too. They are wonderfully welcoming and helpful, on hand for local tips such as local markets worth visiting (Excideuil 20 mins drive away -Thursdays).

Del administrador: Thank you for your very kind words about your stay with us; it was lovely to meet you both and a pleasure to look after you. We are very lucky to be in a beautiful area, close to nature and lots of things to see and do. Of course, it's great to be in a peaceful area but never too far from all of the things that this area offers. We are so pleased that you valued our hard work in keeping everything just right and it was wonderful to hear of your experiences...which all adds to the "tapestry" that is Camping Belle Vue. We very much hope that we will see you again but, for the meantime, we send all good wishes.

Me gustó We loved this little site in a rural French setting. Our hosts, Simon & Cal were amazing, nothing was to much trouble, from bringing our breakfast order to our pitch to arranging a vets appointment for our pup as part of the rules for travel back to the UK. We chose this site because of the great reviews and we were not disappointed. The pitches are of a good size (ours had electric) and the facilities, whilst basic are very clean & well maintained. The option to have an evening meal on site is great and we took this option for 2 of our 4 nights. The 4 courses cooked by Cal and hosted by Simon were delicious and we recommend taking up this option during your stay. The onsite pool was also a great option for warm sunny days. This is a great little site in a great setting just outside of the village of Hautefort & we highly recommend a stay here; we would definitely stay here again if we return to this area in France.

No me gustó Nothing, we had a great stay.

Del administrador: ...and we loved hosting you ! Thank you for your very kind review...we are blushing from your lovely words :) It was our pleasure to look after you both (and Gustav of course !) and we're delighted that you enjoyed breakfast (to include a little extra for Gustav) and the personal service that we provide. We always try to offer those little extra things to make a guest's stay memorable and it really wasn't a problem arranging everything with the vet. We do hope to meet you again.

Me gustó The location, the friendliness of Cal and Simon, the petiteness of it (only about 10 pitches), the view of the castle, the delivery of your croissants to you in the morning in a little bread basket, the pool.

No me gustó Noting.

Me gustó Everything !
The campsite is especially well looked after and run by Simon and Cal. They have put a great deal of thought into how they want to run their business and their primary focus is their guests.
Before we even arrived we were asked if they could get us anything from the shops which was so considerate.
We were greeted and shown the amenities and pitch personally which was lovely.
Each day we were able to order fresh bread and croissants ( scrumptious ) that were delivered to our tent.
The site is beautiful with an amazing with a view of Chateau Hautefort. It is super clean.
Our two dogs were also spoilt with little treats.
Yes they have thought of everything !
We can only say go and experience a wonderful place with two genuinely wonderful people who want you to have a relaxed and happy stay.

Del administrador: Thank you both for the lovely review; indeed, we do focus on our guests and one of our main aims is to create happy memories. We're so grateful that you valued what we offered...if getting some groceries makes a guest's holiday easier, then it's our pleasure to make that happen. We are proud of what we offer and we enjoy welcoming everyone individually and explaining everything. We are touched by your kind words and we hope to see you all again !!!

Me gustó My wife and I had the most enjoyable holiday at Camping Belle View. Simon and Carl are the best hosts anyone could wish for. The site is beautifully situated on the outskirts of Hautefort with great views of the fantastic Chateau. We dined at the camp and it must be said that Carl is a wonderful chef and his gastronomic creations were superb. We had issues with our car and our hosts could not have been more helpful and sympathetic which made us both feel safer and reassured. We cannot recommend Camping Belle View enough for a peaceful, happy and wonderful holiday in beautiful surroundings with two great people looking after you.

We always find it easy to look after our guests (especially the lovely ones !) and you both, definitely, fall into that category and it made hosting you even easier :) We are very lucky to be situated where we are and to have such stunning scenery around us...we're glad that you enjoyed it. You were very unlucky with your car problems but it was our pleasure to be able to help...we do hope that we will meet up again.
