Campsite values

Stefan and Doris, the campsite owners wish to encourage the family atmosphere as the campsite is based on family traditions and values. Over 25 acres are at your diposal, feel free to roam where you like. It is a point of Stefan and Doris that nobody shall remain anonymus. You are encouraged to join them for a drink in the bar each evening. Ask them questions, they will most likely have the answer and even if they don't they would be only to happy to find out for you. If you would like to explore the area they realise everyone has different tastes, just go and ask! They know the "Périgord" very well and are pleased to be of service. If on the other hand you prefere to savour the tranquillity of the campsite and spend your time relaxing on site. Feel free! They will not get in your way! Both Stefan and Doris will be at your disposal any time.

Children

Kids can play at Camping Maisonneuve in safety, let them roam around to do as they like. Let them play in the creek on the campsite boundary, fish in our pond, walk in the woods, swim in our pool, play table football or table tennis in fact almost anything. All we ask is that you remember to keep an eye on them, especially when near water.

Campsite Facilities and Activities

The campsite restaurant "Au Chateau d'eau", is to be found just beside the swimming pool in an old modified barn. Here you will find both regional and international dishes. Whether you'd like steak and chips,a classic regional French dish or the daily changing "Plat du Jour", just try it out! Fancy a snack? They're available too! Situated within "Au Chateau d'eau" is a fully licensed bar which caters for most Europeans tastes. Here you can purchase soft drinks for the kids, cocktails for the ladies or some french and german draft beers (half pint or pint) or fine other beers, all served ice-cold, just right for those long hot Dordogne evenings so often found in the summer. In the evenings there is satellite TV available and a choice music from a huge selection of CDs and videos covering everything from 60s tunes, to Rock, Blues and recent Pop. And if you're a musician, you can try your hand on our band equipment. We have a set of drums, guitars, keybord, the works!

Measuring a generous 23 ft by 46 ft an ideal location for a long hot summers day idled away with a cool drink on the sun deck. In the evening, why not swim under the stars, it's fully illuminated and free to all patrons. A truly unforgettable experience.

Situated beside our swimming pool is a new sports field designed for Badminton, Volleyball and many other games . Very popular and again no charge is made.

Here, in the small commune of St. Jory de Chalais we are situated in the most beautiful countryside. Within a radius of just a few miles newly signposted pathways have been designed especilally for this purpose, covering walks from five to twenty miles. Superb walks! How else can you get a better understanding of the history surrounding this fabulous area.

Again as with the above, tracks have been designed for mountain bikers. These will really test your endurance if you wish. On the other hand you can take a less strenuous ride on one of the more simple ones if you require. No bike? No problem! Mountain bikes are avaiable for rental at the campsite.

Horse riding opportunities are found within10 miles of the campsite. We would be happy to give you more details on arrival.

In the small village of St. Jory de Chalais just half a mile from our campsite you will find the first and only rope course in France. Tuition is available and courses start at very low cost for a days training and all within the personal limits of the pupil.

Our campsite caters for the touring motorcyclist having it's own corner of the site. Here you will find a large area with tables and benches, a pergola and grilling amenities. The Périgord is especially suited to the experienced motorcycle enthusiast with it's long hilly roads and sweeping bends.
