Castles and fortified towns

Majestic castles, picturesque villages and medieval bastides will surprise you with their incredible beauty.

The Dordogne is sometimes called "the land of 1000 castles". Just a few steps from Le Couderc, you will find not less than five castles. A visit to one of these beautifully preserved historical gems will take you back to a bygone era. Most of the castles are strategically located on high ground with beautiful views and some have magnificent gardens. Some hold events during the summer months, such as Château des Milandes and Château de Castelnaud, making a visit to the château an unforgettable experience for young and old alike. The gardens of Marqueyssac and the mysterious ruins of the Château de Commarque are also worth a visit.

Around Le Couderc there are many pretty bastides and medieval villages. Here, time has almost stood still. You can walk through the old narrow streets or have a refreshing drink in the market place. Issigeac, Monpazier, Belvès, Molières or Limeuil, Sarlat, and Saint-Léon-sur-Vézère are worth a visit. La Roque-Gageac, the fortified town of Domme, the sloping streets of Beynac and Rocamadour are unforgettable and very romantic settings.

In these towns and villages there is a wide programme of events and festivals in the summer, where gastronomy, music and dance go hand in hand.

For more information, you can always come and see us at the reception!

Kids' club

miniclub camping naturiste 2In high season, a creative club for the little ones is organised every day. Cutting, gluing, painting, drawing, modelling clay... The children are always so proud to show their creations to their parents on their return.

Caves and (pre)history

grotten3

The Dordogne is undeniably linked to the prehistory. The Cro-Magnon man has left many traces in this region.

Les Eyzies, less than an hour's drive from Le Couderc, is rightly called the capital of prehistory. Many caves are open to public, such as La Roque Saint Christophe, the caves of Roc de Gazelle,... not forgetting the world-famous Lascaux II and IV caves. It is an incredible experience to walk through the caves where our ancestors created the first works of art in history of mankind.

The various prehistoric parks, such as the Prehisto-Park, are recommended for families with children. The workshops and life-size statues give you a good impression of how prehistoric man lived, hunted, made fire and cut stones. The National Prehistory Museum at Les Eyzies is educational and interesting for older children.

Less going back in time but certainly worthwhile is a visit to Le Bournat, an outdoor museum in Le Bugue. It is a completely reconstructed village of the Périgord around 1900. Workshops and animations immerse you in the life of the beginning of the last century. Young and old are fascinated by the life of the past: a blacksmith forges his iron, a steam oven is put into operation, the old agricultural tools are ready for use, the fairground attractions from the beginning of the last century complete the picture. Great for a family outing!

Theme days for children

A desperate king, an unhappy tree creature or a crazy underwater inhabitant... What do they have in common? They all come to visit Le Couderc from time to time and ask for help from all the children! Every Monday in high season, all children's activities are based on fairy tales, fables or even stories created from scratch.

Along the rivers, there are several canoeing companies. Once a week, a canoe trip is organised from the campsite. This offers you the opportunity to set off together with others.
