Within walking distance of the town of Thiviers, in a park-like area, you will find the quiet family camping Le Repaire. The camping site is close to a lake with a sandy beach where you can swim. Guests are very impressed with this beautifully located camping site with great facilities. A special feature of this camping site (9 ha in size) is that pilgrims like to spend the night here in a 'pilgrims refuge': it is located on the road from Vézelay to Santiago de Compostella.

Spacious site

At Le Repaire you have a choice between spacious pitches (120-150 m2), on grassland and demarcated with small hedges. Poplars, oaks, cherries and pine trees provide ample shade or somewhat less shade. Several wooden rental homes can be rented as well.

Entertainment for all

The heated swimming pool (150 m2) is partly covered with a sliding roof. There is a separate toddler pool. There is a table tennis table and a jeu-de-boule pitch. Competitions are organised here on a regular basis. You can borrow rackets, balls and shuttles from the reception. A small fee is payable for billiards as well as for the tennis court at the nearby Nantheuil recreational lake. At this lake, complete with sandy beaches and lawns, part of the water has been sectioned off. Therefore, children can safely swim here. There is a lovely playground. The camping site also has its own playground. In the recreation area lovely activities are organised twice weekly in English and French.

Dancing on summer evenings

In summer great activities such as rock concerts, dance evenings, theme evenings and kids parties are regularly organised on the terrace.

Travelling party: Family with children, 4 – 12 years

Liked - Les emplacements sont bien définis par des haies et ne laissent pas de vis-à-vis avec les voisins
Disliked - Les sanitaires sont à priori en cours de rénovation. Ils sont en effet vieillissants et pas hyper propres.
Les piscines ne sont pas tops. Ça va pour un séjour aussi court, mais pour un vrai séjour... C'est décevant
Le service au bar pourrait être amélioré par un service "à emporter"

Travelling party: Family with children, 4 – 12 years

Liked - L'accueil et la gentillesse de la plupart du personnel, les emplacements sont bien à l'ombre, les toilettes toujours propre !
Disliked - La piscine est dans un très mauvais état, les margelles qui se décollent et certaine recollé à même le liner qui lui est gonflé par des poches d'air gigantesque, le bassin pour les tout petits était très sales avec du vert sur tout le pourtour , la porte jamais fermé donc aucune sécurité pour l'entrée, ma fille de deux ans rentrait comme elle voulait, et la cerise c'est le Gars qui se la joue à Patrick Chirac en mattant toutes les femmes du camping et se gêne pas pour les draguer ouvertement ! Les jeux pour les enfants sont très moyennement entrenues, même certains HS !

Liked - Bien reçus et bien conseillés. Au calme et idéalement situé (de nombreuses attractions touristiques à moins de 30 minutes de route).
Disliked - Jeux pour enfants semblent à l'abandon (notamment à côté de l'aire des camping-cars) et sécurité à revoir (filets éventrés pour le château gonflable), Piscine glaciale malgré une semaine d'août très ensoleillée.

Travelling party: Family with children, 4 – 12 years

Liked - Calme, emplacement assez grand et séparés par des haies. Pas mal de sanitaires
Disliked - La propreté des sanitaires : Ils sont nettoyés tous les jours mais rarement à fond. Un coup de balai uniquement. Le minimum est de laver à grands jets avec produits une fois par jours. De même pour les lavabos et les toilettes. Ici pas l'ombre de l'odeur d'un produit nettoyant. Nous avons fait la réflexion, du coup c'était lavé à fond le lendemain mais ça n'a pas duré malheureusement. Même si ça ne paraît pas salé, sa manque de propreté. Dommage!!!
