Why stay here ...

This is a family run site with a lovely atmosphere. Located in a rural setting between forest and vineyards, between the Dordogne in the east and the Atlantic beaches in the west. Perfect for a peaceful break or as a stopover on the way to Spain and Portugal, just an hour north of Bordeaux. 

Perfect for walks and cycling trips along quiet roads and paths direct from the campsite entrance. There is a lake on site where you can fish or relax in the small covered swimming pool which is open from mid season. 

At La Motte the emphasis is on relaxation, not so much on entertainment.

Peaceful site. Great Location.

La Motte
Our second visit here in past 4 years. It is set in a lovely peaceful and quiet location just close enough for visits to Bordeaux and other towns in the area. Not a sight for families with teenagers nothing for them to do and very poor internet service, but young ones ok. The new owners have obviously started to invest in improving facilities. The new covered pool being the obvious one and new additional toilet block also. Both positives, but it would seem to be at the detriment to the general upkeep of the rest of the site and that is a shame. As a bare minimum the grass pitches should be cut and tidy and the water taps and grey waste drains kept clear, clean and usable without flooding other pitches. The reception greeting could have been more friendly but hey it was a hot day. One tip take mosquito spray and/ or other preventitive measures as the fishing lakes Make for a bite fest otherwise. Pitches are generally ok but most are sloping and majority are prone to waterlogging if it rains hard. Big rigs may find the stony, quite steep, access "track" slippery and difficult , particularly in wet weather. We would visit again as it is in a lovely area but think attention to detail is key for this site.

Lovely peaceful site .

This site is lovely. The pitches are large and sunny . Little grape trees between each pitch . Toilets and showers are spotless if a bit dated . The owner is polite and friendly. There is a supermarket 2 miles away . Easy site to find . Definitely worth visiting.

2 night stop en rte back to Dieppe....

La Motte
The owners were very welcoming & asked if we want bread for the morning, various options. Pleasant place to stay if you just want peace & quiet.... a very spacious site with generous sized pitches & chalet style homes in a separate area by the lake. There is a small covered pool where they seem to be making improvements to the surrounding area. Amenities are dated but very clean.
