  • Peaceful and friendly Dordogne valley site, 1.5km from the Dordogne
  • Three and a half kilometres from Domme and 14 from Sarlat
  • Pools, restaurant and organised cycle tours and canoe trips in summer
Pools, views and a setting close to the Dordogne river and the old old towns of Domme and Sarlat – what a smashing site this is. Friendly and peaceful Camping Le Pech de Caumont is in a highly scenic setting, with spectacular views over the Dordogne valley and with heaps to do in its handsome surroundings: the Dordogne river is a kilometre and a half away for swimming, fishing and lounging on several handily located beaches, and guided hikes, canoe trips and mountain bike tours leave from the site in summer. History and culture trips? Even the kids might be tempted… the 13th-century town of Domme is within a couple of kilometres and Périgord Noir capital Sarlat is within 20; two châteaux (Castelnaud and Beynac) are within 20 minutes' drive, and little adventurers should surely like a potter below ground at the Domme cave, three kilometres away. But there are pools to dip into too. Le Pech de Caumont has two, one for grownups and one for kids, both scenically set and with sun loungers alongside. A playground and trampoline are also to hand, as well as a games room, pétanque court and table tennis – if, indeed, you're ever on site and not river swimming, valley cycling or town and cave sightseeing… Evening activities including barbecues, treasure hunts and music nights run in summer, or you could just mosey along to the restaurant and terrace, for Périgord cuisine, fine French wine, and a natter with your fellow guests.

What customers say

This campsite offers beautiful rural views, particularly over Domme, with spacious, hedged pitches. Guests praise the friendly and helpful owners, the enjoyable on-site bar and restaurant (especially burgers and pizza), and the lovely swimming pool. Facilities are generally clean and functional, though some mention they are a little dated and that better lighting in pathways and shower blocks would be beneficial. While some noted minor issues with bin access and reception, the overwhelming sentiment is one of a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere in a superb location for exploring the Dordogne.

Chris C.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked A nice site in a rural setting with some pitches having great views over the village of Domme. All pitches are of a good size & separated by hedges. The bathroom facilities are a little tired but functional & clean. It also has a lovely little swimming pool, a great asset for warmer days. We loved the onsite bar area & restaurant and the site hosts are friendly, helpful and made our stay very enjoyable.

Disliked The bins for the site are quite a walk from the site, most unusual not to have easy access to rubbish & recycling on the actual site.

Liked Loved it here. Great pool, amazing views, lovely atmosphere and friendly helpful staff. Restaurant was great too - only serve dinner not lunch but once knew that was fine! Liked being able to order pastries the night before for breakfast

Disliked Wasn’t keen on male and female toilet cubicles next to each other or unisex shower block. To me, separate sex blocks feel safer though in France it wasn’t only campsite we went to like this.

Local attractions

Caves, castles, canoeing and culture: this part of the Dordogne valley has the lot. After investigating the waters of the Dordogne, have a day trip to Domme (10 minutes' drive), in spectacular setting 250 metres above sea level overlooking the Dordogne river. The town is a bastide, with lengthy and colourful history: the Knight Templars were banged up here in 1307 and England wrangled France – several times – for Domme possession during the Hundred Years War. If the kids' eyes have now glazed over, take them to Domme's Knight Templars prison to see the knightly graffiti etched into the stone, and then on to Sarlat (20 minutes), for splendid views of this splendid town from the glass elevator in the bell tower. As well as the cave of Domme (10 minutes), subterranean explorers should also get along to the prehistoric caves in Les Eyzies-de-Tayac-Sireuil, 35 minutes away.
