Small, friendly family-run site just outside Chef-Boutonne
An hour's drive to Futuroscope; 40 minutes to the Marais Poitevin
Heated pool and bar/restaurant with live music and quizzes

Get ready with your Poitou-Charentes holiday wishlist, for Camping Le Moulin is a place that ticks many boxes. Small family-run site with a friendly atmosphere? Tick. Rural peace? Tick (and with the bonus of the river Boutonne running just past the site for added prettiness). And it scores well on the convenience front too, as it’s a mere two kilometres from the centre of Chef-Boutonne, a small town that’s big enough to be home to a couple of supermarkets, three bars, two restaurants and a clutch of shops. A smart château and a fishing lake are within walking distance too, and there are plenty of places to go for a bike ride or walk (with your dog if you wish) so you’ll have something to do even if you don’t fancy getting in the car. If even that seems like too much effort (you are on holiday, after all), it’s not hard to amuse yourselves on site: perhaps with a dip in the heated swimming pool, a game of table tennis or some time watching the kids have fun at the play area. As you may have guessed from the name (or spotted from the pictures), the site centres around an old watermill, which has now been converted to house the site’s bar/restaurant, opening out onto a lovely poolside terrace. This is the place to go for meals of local and international dishes, and for the live music and quizzes that run throughout July and August (and once a month in low season).

Nigel C. Oct 2024

Power optional concrete and grass motorhome site

Liked: Very friendly English owners

Disliked: Arrived quite late in afternoon but couldn't get in as electric gates with keypad. waited 10 mins for owner who came by and gave us the code, apparently she had emailed the code, but as travellers we have no internet so didn't get it. Water tap had no hose connection.
Normally we use Aires but today we decided to use campsite as it said wifi at pitch and showers, The wifi needed a voucher and the showers were covered in cobwebs and stone cold, unusable, ended up with strip wash in motorhome
Swimming pool and restaurant closed
Quite expensive site for a patch of grass although we did recharge the batteries with the electric hookup (extra cost).

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your comments which we have noted.
We have opened our winter suite early which is heated as the weather has been so atrocious this year and this was available for use. It is up by the swimming pool.
The swimming pool is usually open it has been an unusual year and it is really cold.
The water tap up by the swimming pool end has a hose attached.
The restaurant is only open Thursday to Sunday out of season.

Location Area, pitches okay, nice to choose where we wanted to park.…

Local attractions

Make your first port of call the gorgeous Château de Javarzay, a Renaissance gem 10 minutes’ walk from the site. Once you’ve toured the elegant interior, take a wander around the grounds which include an arboretum and a fishing lake (open to visitors subject to certain conditions). If your idea of outdoor time skews more towards the active end of things, there are places for kayaking and go-karting within a half-hour drive, and the Feel Nature adventure park (35 minutes' drive) is a good option for kids who feel inspired to get up into the treetops. Other days out nearby might take you to have a wander around towns like Niort (40 minutes) or Angoulême (an hour) or to explore the waterways of the Marais Poitevin Regional Natural Park (40 minutes). If you’ve brought the kids along, it’s well worth planning a day out at Futuroscope theme park (an hour) too – it’s one of the country’s most visited attractions for very good reason…
