  • Family site on the edge of Mamers next to a pool and swimming lake
  • A 35-minute drive from Alençon and 55 minutes from Le Mans
  • A short walk from shops, restaurants, a sports ground and mini golf
Take a good long look at this lovely setting on the edge of Mamers, next to a swimming lake and a public pool… and then take a look at that wider map, which has Parc naturel régional du Perche on one side and Forêt de Perseigne on the other side. That’s Camping Les Portes du Perche for you. Conveniently positioned within walking distance of the town’s shops, restaurants and other amenities, it’s also well-based for all sorts of outdoors pursuits. Where to begin? First, get to know all the little pieces in the immediate vicinity. The site is next to a free, covered public swimming pool and a supervised swimming pond. There’s also a multi-sports ground and play areas for children a short walk away. For a fee, horse-riding, tennis and miniature golf are accessible around the lake. And as a bonus, the town centre is just 15 minutes’ walk away. Further afield, tackle the hiking trails in Forêt de Perseigne (around 20 minutes’ drive away) or cycle on established local greenways. If you’d rather explore on horseback, there’s an equestrian centre 200 metres from the site. At the crossroads of the A11 and A28 motorways, the site is well-positioned for getting to other sublime destinations in Pays de la Loire. Camping Les Portes du Perche is half an hour’s drive from Alençon and 55 minutes from Le Mans.

What customers say

This well-maintained site offers large, peaceful, and shaded pitches, many with privacy hedges. It is conveniently located a short walk from town and adjacent to lakes suitable for swimming and fishing. Staff are consistently described as friendly and helpful. While facilities are generally clean, some visitors noted they are basic and lack amenities like toilet seats and paper. Noise from other guests was an occasional issue.

Electric optional grass and earth pitch

Liked Great pitches, generously sized. Standard 3-pin electric hook up, water tap by the pitch. Nicely shaded. A very peaceful site. Amenities are clean and functional. Lovely lake right by, great for dog walking, and only 10min stroll into town. Perfect for us for a night stop, lovely staff on site

Electric optional grass and earth pitch

Liked Good municiple site, walking distance to Mamers. Large, grassy, shady pitches (which was much needed when we visited, during a heatwave!). Toilets/shower were basic but clean. Lovely location next to two large lakes … one for fishing and one with a small beach area, for swimming. Would recommend.

Electric optional grass and earth pitch

Liked We only stayed for 1 night, just passing through. Electric hook up fine. Level pitch. An element of privacy due to hedges. Hot clean showers and clean toilets in dual gender block.
There were lakes nearby if you were into fishing. Very pleasant location.

Disliked No seats on toilets. No toilet rolls.

Electric optional grass and earth pitch

Liked Fantastic site a real hidden gem from the friendly welcome to the beautiful woodlands and massive lake we loved everything about it. Le Mans is around 20 minutes away which is well worth a visit with plenty of shops and restaurants and gorgeous buildings including a very impressive cathedral. If you enjoy chilling you will love it here. We hope to return soon.

Local attractions

To Bellême (15 minutes’ drive), perhaps, for a town among the woodlands and countryside? Be sure to peer inside the church, which was reconstructed in 17th-century style from its 15th-century original and features an adorable off-centre clock. Lace-making traditions are what bring many to Alençon (half an hour). The town is UNESCO-listed for its arts and culture. There’s a fine arts museum as well as 15th-century architecture to check out while you’re pottering around there. La Ferté-Bernard (35 minutes) is a strong contender for some of the finest views around this region - and that’s saying something, with such strong competition. The Huisne river runs past the medieval buildings and canals also separate some of the streets. Le Mans (55 minutes) may be furthest away out of the bunch, but it’s got lots to occupy your hours, including a museum on the city’s famed motor race, the race track and an old town.
