Set midway between Tours and Poitiers, this family-run site is situated in the attractive grounds of an 18th Century manor house rich with history, a 11th century church and a medieval castle. It has a calm, laid back atmosphere and spacious grounds across which open, grassy very lasrge pitches are arranged, with some shade from mature trees.
In high season, a local baker visits the site and invites guests to make their own bread with him in a medieval oven. Wine and food tastings are also organised in summer, and there is music on the terrace on some evenings.
Children will enjoy the new Kids Club with mini disco and campfires.
There is plenty in the area to suit a range of interests, including Futuroscope for families and the Brenne Natural Park for nature lovers and bird watchers. To the north, some of the famous Loire châteaux can be reached, while 40 minutes to the south is Poitiers, with its picturesque medieval centre.

Located in the grounds of a quintessential French château standing in the centre of a traditional sleepy French village makes this site stand out. We were allocated a pitch in front of the Château with one slight disappointment... Show more

Stopped on route for one night. Easy to find but be careful on final approach as can be very tight entrance. Use CC directions and don't rely on satnav as one road has very tight 90deg turn into site.

A peaceful site which we used for a 3 night stopover as we headed North to Le Havre. Well spaced out pitches, with water and drainage, this was a very pleasant and quite site.The adjacent restaurant, La Maison Ferme, was a real bonus and is recomended
