This municipal campsite along the Vienne River offers a straightforward, no-frills experience that has evolved over the years. In 2022, the site was described as flat and open with no trees or shrubs between pitches, allowing guests to choose their own spot and inform reception later. The reception closes at lunchtime until 3 pm, typical of municipal sites. Facilities include a mix of old and a very new shower block, cleaned daily, ensuring basic hygiene. While the town offers limited activities, a regular bus service connects to Limoges, making city exploration easy. The ACSI card provides a discounted rate, making it very good value for money, and it serves as a practical stopover for budget-conscious travelers. By 2023, the campsite had improved significantly, earning high praise for its peaceful atmosphere and excellent value. Guests commended the friendly reception staff, particularly two warm and helpful ladies, one of whom speaks some German. The sanitary facilities were spotlessly clean, especially in the newer block, and the riverside pitch provides a superb setting. The site is well-maintained, reflecting credit on the municipality, and many guests extended their stay due to the pleasant environment. Cycling is convenient via a pontoon bridge leading back to the campsite, though train connections to Limoges may be missed. In 2024, the campsite remains clean and basic, with adequate grass pitches and acceptable showers, but no on-site food or drink is available, limiting convenience. The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful, greatly enhancing the experience. However, a notable drawback is the proximity to a rugby club; when events are held, late-night noise from chanting and drumming can persist until early morning, making sleep difficult and causing some visitors to decide not to return. Despite this, the campsite offers a pleasant stay for those who can avoid event nights, but caution is advised regarding potential disturbances.
