from 621 reviews Write review

Camping Le Repos du Baladin is a small-scale family campsite in the Regional Natural Park of the Auvergne volcanoes. You'll find the campsite in the heart of Puy-de-Dôme, east of the medieval village of Murol. Here you camp on a spacious campsite, under the watchful eye of the Château de Murol. This castle, situated on a mountain, is a nice destination for a day trip.

Small-scale campsite with large grounds

Despite its small-scale character, the campsite is spacious. Behind the main building you first see a playground and the sanitary building, most of the touring pitches are situated behind it. In total there are sixty pitches; they all look different. The site is divided in several small fields, which are mostly flat, but increase slightly at the back. There, on the wooded slope, are most of the tent pitches. On the flat part you'll find comfort pitches and rental accommodations, separated from each other by thick hedges.

Outdoor and indoor pool

Just a cooling dip? To the left of the entrance are the two swimming pools. A spacious outdoor pool (heated, for when it's unexpectedly a little cooler) and an indoor pool. Probably the outdoor pool is warm enough, as it lies in the sun. Around the pool are sunbeds and some parasols.

Snack bar

The former hotel does not only house the reception but also the snack bar.It is open in high season. Don't expect a three-course dinner, but it’s open for a good pizza or some fries from mid-June.You can also order fresh bread during the same period. Outside you'll find the covered patio.

Liked - The camping is really nice, quiet and calm in a beautiful area looking at Murol Castle. Reception was nice and they help us with all we needed at any time. The Camping has been renovated and looks brand new. I greatly recommend it.

Liked - Campsite was quiet and peaceful. emplacements were a good size and well laid out with hedges between them, which made it pleasantly secluded. Facilities were spotlessly clean and convenient. It was good we were able to walk into Murol easily.
Disliked - Disappointed that there were no restaurant facilities open at the time we were there, even icecreams were not available, despite the site being reasonably busy and becoming more so. We realise that in France the holiday season doesn't really get going until mid July, but nevertheless we would have appreciated more facilities. I also think that the washing facilities. although good and very clean might well have been inadequate for the number of emplacements.

Liked - The welcome was friendly and the atmosphere on the campsite was relaxed and easy going. We joined in the social meals at the bar and we had a lovely time on both evenings. One was an Auvergne fondue and the other was galettes and crepes. The sanitary facilities were excellent and always very clean. I have no hesitation in recommending this campsite.
Disliked - No.
