Le Moulin du Roch - a 5 star campsite between Sarlat and Les Eyzies
It is in the heart of the Dordogne, between Sarlat and Les Eyzies de Tayac that the 5 star campsite, Camping Le Moulin du Roch, is located. A member of the Oléla group, each year this top-of-the-range campsite invites a multitude of holidaymakers to make the most of its natural setting and quality facilities.
A top-of-the-range campsite in the Dordogne...
Perfectly located to discover the rich historical, natural and cultural heritage of the Dordogne, on the route linking Sarlat la Canéda, the capital of the Périgord to the village of Les Eyzies, famous for its important prehistoric sites, the Moulin du Roch campsite is one of the loveliest open-air holiday resorts of the département.
This establishment stretches over lush grounds in Saint André d’Allas, a commune barely 10 or so kilometres from Sarlat. Crossed by the Puymartin stream, it takes its name from the windmill set up in the past by this water course. Underneath the trees nestle slightly more than 200 pitches, including the majority occupied by holiday rental accommodation.
Plots intended to accommodate campers and their equipment are divided into three ranges: Standard pitches, Comfort pitches and Premium pitches, these being equipped with electricity, a water point, a waste water system as well as a shed within which is found garden furniture, as well as a fridge and a microwave.
Holiday rentals take the form of mobile homes, for which the Standing range is the most top-end, with modern accommodation, comprised of three bedrooms and able to accommodate up to seven people. This accommodation has numerous advantages, such as beds made on arrival, air conditioning, free Wi-Fi, end-of-stay cleaning offered and other facilities...
Activities and entertainment for the entire family
Whether they are staying on a pitch or in a holiday rental, holidaymakers can make the most of the same on-site services. The latter comprise in particular an information point, a grocery, a bread stand, a restaurant, a snack bar, a bar and other facilities. “L’Assiette Gourmande”, the campsite restaurant, offers a gourmet and delicious cuisine for gourmets themselves.
As regards leisure facilities, Le Moulin du Roch has an aquatic park with a heated swimming pool and a paddling pool, a children’s playground, a volleyball court, a multi sports ground, pétanque courts and ping pong tables. Activities take place there during the summer with, in particular, fitness sessions, sports tournaments and even themed entertainment during the evening (games, shows and other activities).
A children’s club is open every morning from Monday to Friday during the high season, and when specific activities take place on some afternoons. Entertainment is equally intended for teenagers so that they can have increased opportunities to meet and have fun with other youngsters.
Going out of this luxury Sarlat campsite, families can make the most of the richness of the département as regards tourist, cultural and sports activities to organise a multitude of trips out. You can go down the Dordogne river, which crosses the département from east to west, for example by canoe as you can many other water courses: the Vézère, the Isle, the Auvezère, the Dronne and others. Peaceful or turbulent waters for the greatest delight of lovers of such activities!
The Dordogne, one of the loveliest départements in France...
One of the best attractions of the Le Moulin du Roch campsite is, without doubt, its geographical location, which enables holidaymakers to go quickly to Sarlat la Canéda. The capital of the Périgord Noir, this town is today one of the loveliest medieval settlements in Europe. Its picturesque alleyways enable you to discover sublime town houses and other historic monuments, such as the Manoir de Gisson (itself a French listed building), the Sarlat Saint-Sacerdos Cathedral, the town hall and others.
The reputation of its market has for a long time gone beyond the boundaries of the département, and people come from afar to buy truffles. They are a speciality of the Périgord region, but it is enough to go to a Sarlat restaurant or the surrounding area to understand that the gastronomy of the Périgord is one of the richest in France, with in particular a variety of preserves and fillets, foie gras pâté, walnuts, chestnuts, mushrooms, wines and other produce.
Amongst the other tourist sites located in the vicinity of the Le Moulin du Roch campsite, we can mention the village Les Eyzies, with a significant historical and prehistoric heritage. Moreover, the Musée National de la Préhistoire (National Museum of Prehistory) is located there. Holidaymakers can also visit a multitude of châteaux and walled towns which are dotted across the natural Dordogne landscape, such as the château at Castelnaud La Chapelle, and that in Milandes, Beynac and others.
