Within walking distance of the centre of the historic town of Loches, on the banks of the Indre river, you'll find the charming campsite La Citadelle. This natural campsite is ideal for a relaxed holiday with the entire family. Kids will have plenty of fun at La Citadelle with the lovely playground. Behind the city walls of Loches there are a mishmash of medieval streets. Twice a week there is a market with lovely regional products. Certainly try the special goat's cheese and the tender chicken.

Green pitches

The pitches are located on separate fields and partially separated from each other with plants. The pitches are spacious and some have their own sanitation facilities and a kitchenette for an extra fee. How convenient! In total you can choose from four different categories, from simple to "Gold". You always have a sunny lawn with plenty of privacy.

Accommodations in all shapes and sizes

The rental accommodations also fall into four categories, from relatively simple Coco Sweets (two to four persons) and two person huts to mobile homes with two bedrooms, your own terrace and complete furnishings. The largest accommodation is the "Grand Espace" (four bedrooms). In short, plenty of choice.

Entertainment

Children can play in the play area or take a dip in the covered pool, renovated in 2017, with their parents. In the summer there are plenty of activities for the whole family.

Fresh rolls and croissants

The camping shop has the daily necessities, such as fresh rolls and croissants The restaurant (with bar and terrace) serves pizzas and has a small menu.

Travelling party: Family with children <4 years

Our pitch is flat, well shaded in this heat. Not noisy but I think down by the pool it prob is more.
The site is great for families, two pools, a water slide, a castle playground with bouncy castle and a trampoline.
Easy walk along the river to the town centre which is beautiful.
The shop and reception has been opened at normal times and stock some nice jams, bread etc.
There was a small artisan food market in the bar area today.
I’m glad we found this site and we are staying for four nights.

An ideal stopover for a few days on our way south, or to tour the Loire district. This year we were disappointed that the recent ground works installing new chalets had resulted in muddy/dusty areas - we would hope that these will be fully re-instated in due course. Wonderful view of the chateau, easy walk into town, full of history, with restaurants - the food offering on site is only in the high season. We shall be back.

Nor a nice experience booked a privilege pitch with own sanitary facilities the pitch was just mud and uneven as we pulled in to the pitch we were told to avoid a failed drain cover as it was loose, we booked in for a week the second day there were builders right by us working with drills, grinders etc, that was enough we left the second day, they won’t give a refund on your credit card they will only do it through your bank, as yet a month later still no refund.
I cannot recommend this site sorry.

We enjoy returning to this site. The staff are friendly and helpful, the site is well laid out and quiet. An easy walk to the town for Wednesday or Saturday market days. A large supermarket is a couple of kilometres away together with fuel. Well worth a stay even if only for a few days.

This was our third visit and it won\'t be our last! A beautiful site with everything you could wish for (almost) No shop to speak of but a supermarket just up the road, the restaurant and Pizza place was closed on our visit but it was Mid June so early season, not surprising in France ! The sanitary facilities including the swimming pools are spotless and all staff are very helpful. The site is a pleasant walk into town and it is generally very pleasant. I cannot think of anything negative to say. We will definitely return
