Camping Centre-Val de Loire

The Loire châteaux have made the Centre-Val de Loire region famous. The châteaux of Blois, Chambord and Cheverny are unmissable when you take a holiday in the Centre-Val de Loire.

A campsite in the Centre-Val de Loire, especially in the Loir-et-Cher, gives you easy access to the wider Centre-Val de Loire region. Our campsites close to the Loire are your gateway to the iconic châteaux that fascinate kids and grown-ups alike.

• The Château des Marais 5 star campsite in the Loir-et-Cher is just 8 kilometres from the Château de Chambord and a few minutes from Blois. 500 metres from this 5 star campsite, you can discover the Valley of Kings and its cycle paths along the banks of the Loire. The campsite has a water park complete with swimming pool, waterslides and castle views. As for the accommodation, you can stay in the castle itself or in a mobile home, chalet, hut, lodge or on a camping pitch within the campsite.
• Les Alicourts 5 star campsite in the Loir-et-Cher covers a 60-hectare estate with a private lake for a spot of wild swimming, along with watersports and a water park with swimming pool, waterslides, spa, hammam and sauna. In the heart of the Sologne, just an hour from the Loire châteaux, nature reigns supreme here. The accommodation and pitches are the perfect place to spend a lovely holiday.

At a campsite in the Centre-Val de Loire, you can get back to nature surrounded by the Sologne forests, the farming plains and the banks of the Loire, with hiking, fishing, bike rides and horse riding, spotting the local plant and wildlife, or simply enjoying evenings beside the water. To explore the terroir at its best, indulge in some wine tasting to discover the Touraine, Chinon, Vouvray and Sancerre wines, accompanied by local culinary specialities, such as fish straight from the Loire, Montargis pralines, Tours rilletes (potted pork) or pommes tapées (dried, flattened apples!).
