Our 6 safari tents offer a unique glamping experience, complete with private bathrooms and comfortable boxspring beds, adding an element of fun to your camping adventure. Alternatively, you can choose one of our three self-catering cottages or gites, including a spacious option that you won't want to leave. All of our accommodations are situated on our 12.5 acre property in the heart of the countryside, offering breathtaking views and, of course, a large enclosed swimming pool for all guests to enjoy. We are located on the border of the Lot et Garonne and Dordogne departments in the Aquitaine region of Southwest France, conveniently close to Bergerac. Our region is often compared to Tuscany in France due to its stunning rolling hills, sunflower fields, charming wine chateaus, meandering rivers, historic bastide villages, scenic walking trails, and magnificent castles.

Amidst this natural beauty, we warmly invite you to enjoy a wonderful holiday with us. It's a time for your family to create lasting memories, for children to make new friends, for delightful outings, and to indulge in our famous delicious dinners, made with locally sourced ingredients, including vegetables from our own garden.
