Quiet and green site between the Cher river and the Canal de Berry
Five minutes' drive from Saint-Amand-Montrond; market within 1km
Edged by a lake with watersports and a balneotherapy centre

Slap bang in the centre of France – and in the Centre region’s Cher department – is the green and quiet site of Camping Canal de Berry, set between the Cher river and Canal de Berry. This is an excellently equipped site for peaceful and laidback stays: the grounds are edged by a lake for watersports; there’s a balneotherapy centre for days where de-stressing is the focus; and sporty options for all ages include tennis, badminton, ping pong and a playground for the kids. Camping Canal de Berry is a kilometre away from its nearest town, Saint-Amand-Montrond, about 40 minutes’ drive south of the half-timbered houses and Gothic-inspired cathedral of Bourges, known for its swish stained-glass windows. Shops and services are in Saint-Amand-Montrond town centre and a market on Wednesday and Saturday mornings is less than a kilometre from the site. A bakery and takeaway open up in July and August for those days when cooking’s not on the agenda but treats most definitely are… A five-minute drive from the park is the Gallo-Roman Drevant, an ancient theatre you can have a wander round if you’re looking to get out and about without veering too far. If learning about regional history's where your interests lie, the Saint-Vic Museum is the same distance away, with artefacts and art spanning from aeons ago to more modern times.

Amazone 2 bedroom safari tent (four person)

Liked: A mature couple we stayed with our 8-year-old grandson in a canvas lodge. The accommodation was very clean and well-equipped. The setting is very tranquil and the lodges seem very 'at-one' with the natural surroundings.

Disliked: The toilet/shower facilities are inadequate and definitely need to be upgraded.

Liked: Liked the setting easy walk into Town and lovely walk along the canal. Would only consider if investment made in updating one of the Bathroom blocks.

Disliked: The bathroom facilities were not fit for purpose, the site should only be advertised for self contained units.

Liked: Lovely spot by the canal at the edge of the town. Friendly, helpful staff. Clean with all the basic facilities you need. Very peaceful! Might be busier next week as the Tour De France is going through the town.

Disliked: Might struggle with showers and toilets at busier times. Fine while we're there as most people were in motorhomes.

Liked: Friendly and efficient reception, clean and spacious pitch, decent price, showers had hot water, shop for emergency purchases. Easy to access by camper, car or bike.

Disliked: Someone nearby was doing burnouts in a rubbish car, despite the absence of a Tescos car park. Only briefly, presumably returning to more traditional courting activities after the lack of initial success.

Local attractions

Over in Lac de Virlay, a 10-minute drive from Camping Canal de Berry, you can rent a pedalo or canoe for a leisurely skim across the surface of the water. More into staying on dry land? There’s also fishing, hiking and badminton available on the banks of this scenic area – and you can go riding at a stable around five kilometres away. For those more into culture than adventure, the City of Gold, a museum dedicated to the precious metal stuff, and 12th-century Noirlac Abbey, are a 10-minute drive away. The castles of the Route Jacques Coeur – a tourist-centric roadway known as France’s oldest – also aren’t far away: Meillant and Ainay-le-Vieil are reachable in 15 minutes, while Culan takes 25 minutes. For walks around 10,600 hectares of a nationally managed area of wood known for its oaks, the Forest of Tronçais is less than a half-hour drive away; if you’re there in autumn, you might just hear a few stags making noises through the trees… Roe deer, boars, tawny owls and common buzzards have been known to appear during strolls at other times of the year.
