  • Spacious rural site on the banks of the Loire river
  • A five-minute drive from canoe trips and amenities in Vorey
  • Restaurant and bar open all day for meals, snacks and drinks
Folk seeking a retreat far from the madding crowd, feast your eyes on this place. Rural Camping Domaine Le Pra de Mars is a five-hectare site right on the banks of the Loire river with a backdrop of natural colours from the tree-covered hills all around – just the place for a bit of decompression time. You’re a little way off the tourist trail here, so it’s likely you’ll be spending your days roaming around in the fresh air rather than ticking off heaps of attractions. Hiking, mountain biking, canoeing, fishing, horse riding and climbing are great ways to get out and about locally; come the evening, dark skies mean this is a top spot for stargazing – hang about on site to gaze up with drink in hand or head off on a tour for expert advice. There’s always the very tempting option of loafing about on site for a little while too… it’d be mighty easy to while away many hours around here snoozing in a shaded spot, taking dips in the swimming pool and playing games of tennis, volleyball, table tennis and miniature golf. If you really need a bit of exercise (croissant-related guilt, perchance?), head off to the fitness area for a workout on the outdoor gym kit. Eats and drinks are on hand all day too – the restaurant (in a lovely old farmhouse) opens for breakfast and then serves up meals, crêpes, drinks, ice creams and takeaway pizzas whenever you fancy. Sociable themed dinners are organised regularly in high season, and there’s also the option of cooking up your own dinners with food from the site’s shop.

What customers say

This peaceful riverside campsite is praised for its beautiful natural setting and friendly, helpful hosts who speak fluent English. Guests enjoyed lovely meals at the on-site restaurant and appreciated the tranquil atmosphere. While facilities are generally clean, some reviewers noted they were a little dated. The site offers spacious pitches, many with river views, and the option for freshly baked bread. Visitors are advised to bring cash for payments.

Liked Wat een leuke camping! Om te beginnen is het een mooie (niet zo toeristisch, waar je veel kan doen! Rondom de camping zitten een aantal levendige dorpen (in de week dat wij er waren, stikte het van de dorpsfeesten, vlooienmarkten en markten. De camping zelf is authentiek: gerund door een enorm gastvrije familie! Eigenaren met karakter. Het eten is fantastisch lekker, en allemaal vers en zelfgemaakt! Tot slot kan je heeeerlijk zwemmen in de rivier! Voor de liefhebber is er ook een zwembad. Wat wij leuk vonden is dat er niet alleen maar gezinnen zijn (zijn zelf een jong stel), zeker ook families, maar een leuke afwisseling van verschillende leeftijden en nationaliteiren. Echt een plek om nog eens terug te komen.

Electric optional grass pitch (riverside)

Liked Toller Platz in traumhafter naturbelassener Lage direkt an der Loire. Sehr freundliche Betreiber, die uns herzlich empfangen haben und jederzeit für uns da waren. Man merkt der Familie an, dass Sie den Campingplatz mit Leidenschaft betreiben.
Die Loire ist toll an dieser Stelle. Man kann schwimmen, paddeln, Klippen springen, angeln. Stromaufwärts und stromabwärts sind Stromschnellen. Wenn man diese stromaufwärts überwindet, öffnet sich ein schönes Becken unterhalb einer großen malerischen Brücke zum angeln.
Der Platz hat alles, was man zum klassischen Camping benötigt. Die Toiletten und das Waschhaus sind einfach, werden aber täglich ordentlich gereinigt, so dass wir uns wohl gefühlt haben. Die Gäste sind vernünftig uns hinterlassen die Einrichtung ordentlich. Es gab eine Waschmaschine, bei der der Start Unterstützung vom Chef brauchte, dann aber ordentlich gewaschen hatte.
Es gibt eine Wiese mit einem Volleyball-Netz, eine Tischtennisplatte, einen einfachen aber hinreichenden Pool mit Liegen. Besonders sind der Tennisplatz und ein 17-Loch Minigolf-Platz, die beide kostenlos angeboten werden! Außerdem gibt es noch ein Trampolin und einen einfachen Spielplatz.
An der Rezeption gibt es auch ein Restaurant, dass eine einfache Auswahl an leckeren Speisen bereit hält. Der Chef bedient, die Chefin kocht. Der Mann hat immer ein nettes Wort für seine Gäste bereit.
Der Stellplatz war groß, hatte eine kleine Betonplatte, auf der wir unseren Tisch und Stühle angerichtet haben. Der Stellplatz war durch eine hohe Hecke vom nächsten Platz abgegrenzt. Es gabe einen üppigen Baumbestand für Schatten.
Die Plätze am Wasser sind nicht abgegrenzt.
Wir fanden es sehr toll dort und werden aufgrund der freundlichen Betreiber und ihrem toll gelegenen Platz bestimmt noch mal wieder kommen. Wir konnten hier toll abschalten. Auch die Kinder sind auf Ihre Kosten gekommen.

Disliked Hier und da sind die Einrichtungen etwas in die Jahre gekommen und es könnte mal eine Reparatur oder einen Refresh geben. Andererseits hatte es an nichts gemangelt und wir sind auch so erholt, also nicht ganz so schlimm.
