Description:
Camping Maisonneuve is open from 1st of April to the end of October every year which gives an ideal view of the ever changing Dordogne scenery.
Above all we point out that we very much wish to encourage the familiy atmosphere, indeed this campsite is based on family traditions and values. Over 25 acres are at your disposal, feel free to roam where you like. It is a point of ours that nobody shall remain anonymus.
You are encouraged to join us for a drink in the bar each evening. Ask us questions,we will most likely have the answer and even if we don't we would be only to happy to find out for you. If you would like to explore the area we realise everyone has different tastes, see us!
We 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 a releaving day or two on site. Feel free! We will not get in your way!
We, Stefan and Doris are at your disposal any time.
Camping Maisonneuve is a small friendly campsite with 40 pitches/placements so as you can imaginespace is really not a problem on 25 acres of land! All pitches are at least 100 sq m and boarded by trees or shrub. Every pitch has an electrical point hook up (remember your adapter!) sixteen of which also have water connection points. The design of each pitch was made with space in mind. No pitch or placement will you ever encounter more than two neighbours unlike some where four or five is quite normal. Each morning with Camping Maisonneuve you will wake up to no road noise, no noisy neighbours, just the odd chance of crowing Cockerel!
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 experiance.
We would like to welcome all our guests to our restaurant "Au Chateau d'Eau", which is to be found just beside the swimming pool in an old modified barn. It's here that you will find our regional and international dishes. If it's steak and chips you would like or if it's a classic regional French dish or our daily changing "Plat du Jour", just try us! Fancy a snack? We have them!
Situated within "Au Chateau d'eau" our fully licensed bar caters for most Europeans tastes. Here you can purchase soft drinks for the kids, cocktails for the lady or some french and german draft beers (half pint or pint) or fine other beers, all served icecold, just right for those long hot Dordogne evenings so often found in the summer.
