from 5 reviews Write review

This atmospheric campsite featuring 78 camping pitches and a number of rental accommodations is situated among the green hills in the Auvergne. Le Pra de Mars Campsite is located directly on the Loire River, where you can swim and canoe. This medium-sized campsite is all about the luxury of nature, with a restaurant, river and swimming pool, beautiful views and tranquillity. That's all you need here.

Spot on the river

Le Pra de Mars Campsite is a place that attracts families and nature lovers seeking peace and tranquillity. The camping area is spacious with many trees. You can choose a spacious pitch on the camping field, but also directly on the banks of the Loire. The campsite is a wonderful place for tent campers, but those with other camping equipment are also very welcome! You can expect a personal welcome from the campsite owners who will be looking forward to your arrival.

Swimming fun

The river is a wonderful place for swimming or floating on an air mattress. Near the river is a small beach of sand, pebbles and grass. Kids can catch crayfish under the rocks on the shore, dive from the rocky outcrop and zip through the rapids on a tire. For those who aren't quite as adventurous, there is also a campsite swimming pool. Not big, but perfect for cooling off or reading a book under one of the umbrellas. Those who need a moment for themselves can relax in the sauna or enjoy a massage.

Campsite accepts ACSI Club ID

Liked - Der Platz liegt direkt an der jungen Loire mitten in der Natur. Er ist eine gute Ausgangsbasis um die Umgebung zu erkunden - jede Menge Tipps dazu erhält man von den sehr freundlichen Betreibern. Das Essen im Restaurant war sehr gut.
