  • Eco-friendly Dordogne site five minutes' drive from Vendoire
  • Brantôme, Angoulême and Grotte de Villars within 45 minutes' drive
  • Swimming pools, toy library, restaurant and summer activities
Pretty, peaceful, packed with things for the kids to do… and eco-friendly too. Dordogne site Camping des Tourbières, in a rural location 600 metres from Site Naturel des Tourbières, a Natura 2000 site which has 65 hectares of protected space for walks and fishing. Five minutes’ drive away from Vendoire too, it really has a lot going for it. Come along here and you'll be staying in a spacious park full of greenery and trees, where the owners are doing their best to make sure that their site has only a minimal impact on the environment. That includes providing facilities for recycling and composting, using returnable glassware in the bar and feeding restaurant waste to the goats and chickens (who seem pretty happy with this solution…) Alongside these facilities are all sorts of things designed to make family holidays go with a swing: the outdoor pool and paddling pool are particularly popular features, but guests also have access to a multisports ground, a large playground, a pétanque court, and lots of other games including table football and table tennis. And that’s not all… a library and toy library mean hours of entertainment without the need to bring lots of kit, and in high season you’ll be able to join in with various activities including treasure hunts, yoga classes and horse-drawn carriage rides. Meals are easily sorted here, too – start your day right by ordering bread and pastries to be delivered, then for lunch you can pick up supplies from the food shop or order picnic sandwiches to take on your outings. Evenings can be spent cooking over your barbecue or settling in at the restaurant. There’s also a barbecue night on Wednesdays, a pizza night on Fridays and a street food truck on Saturdays.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: We feel like we hit the jackpot with this site. We loved that you get a bin for your recycling waste and green waste when you arrive making it much easier to separate recyclable waste. We also found the facilities excellent, there is a basketball net, petanque, beach volleyball and other ball sports, with all the necessary balls provided! Such a little thoughtful touch made playing with small children much easier. The pool was lovely and perfect for young children is VERY hot weather. The pitch was well shaded at all times of day. The owners we're friendly and accommodating and the showers were immaculately clean at all times of day.

A little further afield, you may also like to spend days in Brantôme, Angoulême (both 35 minutes) or Périgueux (an hour), exploring prehistoric Grotte de Villars (45 minutes) or trying watersports at Le Grand Etang de la Jemaye (35 minutes).
