Pros
Quiet, but end of the season! Friendly and present staff. Location/Accommodation: Quality of the sleeping arrangements, the terrace, the kitchen space, the amount of storage, the privacy of the loggia sites.
Cons
Too many mosquitoes. Location/Accommodation: The toilets are very small and cramped. The very worn cooking plates were noted upon arrival but not replaced + the bowl for the salad spinner was missing, reported but with no effect.

Pros
We spent a week at this campsite in the heart of nature, by the riverside. Perfect for relaxing and very well located for numerous visits in the surrounding area. Friendly staff, nice pool. Location/Accommodation: I can't comment on this accommodation as we were pleasantly surprised to be upgraded upon arrival.
Cons
No kayak rentals on site, and the river beach is not really well-equipped. Location/Accommodation: Our accommodation was missing a trash can. We had a recycling bin and just a bag as a household waste bin.

Spacious paradise on the banks of the Dordogne
In the heart of Occitania, not far from the picturesque village of Carennac, lies the spacious L' Eau Vive campsite. The beautiful location directly on the banks of the leisurely River Dordogne allows the whole family, including four-legged friends, to enjoy a wonderful holiday experience. While some enjoy a swim in the river or a boat trip, others can relax by the beautiful pool. The living water, after which the campsite is named, is always the centre of attention. Free canoeing lessons are even offered so that you can soon move safely and freely in the river. The boats can be hired and do not need to be brought along. Children's entertainment in the kids' club and weekly music events are also on the programme.
Dogs are very welcome!
Dog owners couldn't imagine a better holiday. Your faithful companion sleeps at eye level when the tents are pitched directly on the riverbank. Those who prefer more comfort can rent one of the cosy cottages or arrive with their own caravan or motorhome and enjoy the well-maintained sanitary facilities. There are wonderful hiking trails to explore the surrounding area. The historic village of Carennac with its almost 400 inhabitants is enchanting with its medieval flair and loving care. It was officially voted one of the most beautiful villages in France.
Camping L' Eau Vive is a well-kept site on the banks of the Dordogne: dogs can also swim here with their favourite people and enjoy long walks in a wonderful natural landscape.
