Pros
The campsite is very pleasant, shady, and surrounded by nature. The atmosphere is family-friendly, with a few animations, but only on 2 evenings a week (calm the rest of the time). The children's animations are top-notch, and the bar and restaurant are nice. There are some mobile homes with plenty of space, otherwise, there are pitches. The proximity to the river and the swimming pool is also a plus. We stayed there for 2 weeks and felt very comfortable. Location / rental accommodation: Super location and a modern well-equipped mobile home.
Cons
The mosquitoes... but that's everywhere.

More info about Camping La Rivière
Surrounded by unspoilt natural landscapes on the banks of the Dordogne, Camping La Rivère in Lacave invites you to enjoy an unforgettable holiday in France. The clear water, the dreamlike valley and the proximity to unique sights are the best conditions for a varied family holiday for those seeking peace and quiet, those interested in culture and active holidaymakers.
Attractive campsite with pool and direct access to the river
Camping La Rivère offers its guests spacious pitches in the middle of a wooded park that stretches right down to the riverbank. Colourful ornamental shrubs and many deciduous trees border the pitches and offer privacy. Alternatively, comfortably equipped rental accommodation is available. Four-legged holidaymakers are also very welcome at the campsite. The highlight of the site is the heated swimming pool with a separate paddling pool for children. Around the pool, cosy loungers under thatched parasols invite you to relax. A dedicated entertainment team provides a colourful entertainment programme to keep young and old entertained. In the evenings, many guests get together around the romantic campfire to chat and reminisce about their eventful holiday. The snack bar, which is open all day and is also a popular meeting place in the evening, caters for the physical well-being of the campsite guests.
Sport, leisure and attractive excursion destinations
For active holidaymakers, there are countless opportunities around Camping La Rivère to get the body moving. Thanks to the favourable location directly on the Dordogne, guests can get into a canoe directly from the campsite and paddle down the beautiful river or swim in it. Those who prefer peace and quiet can find a spot on the banks and relax while fishing. Activities such as rafting, climbing and horse riding are on offer in the surrounding area. The breathtaking landscape can also be explored on long hikes or by bike. The nearby Quercyland Aquapark and the Lacave caves with their fascinating stalactite formations offer fun and excitement for the whole family. Here, young and old can embark on exciting cave explorations. Those interested in culture can visit imposing castles such as La Roque-Gageac or Beynac, which tower over the banks of the river. One thing not to be missed during your holiday at Camping La Rivère is a visit to the pilgrimage town of Rocamadour. It is literally clinging to its limestone cliffs and is a magnificent sight from afar. The highlight is the Saint-Sauveur Basilica, which has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is one of the most famous and most visited places in France.
Camping La Rivère impresses with its spacious and naturally demarcated pitches and its direct location on the banks of the Dordogne. Swimming fun, canoe tours and a wide range of leisure activities promise unforgettable holidays in France.
Frequently asked questions about the campsite Camping La Rivière (Lacave)
What is the access to the Dordogne like and what can you do there?
The campsite is located directly on the Dordogne and offers several gravel beaches as well as a concrete entry point into the water. It is perfect for cooling off on hot days! A real highlight is the guided canoe and kayak tours with a return service starting directly from the site.
What are the pitches like and is there enough shade?
You can expect spacious, green pitches on a long, grassy meadow. Many tall deciduous trees and ornamental shrubs provide pleasant shade. From the pitches close to the riverbank, you even have a great view of the steep cliff opposite.
What should you know about the terrain and the sanitary facilities?
The terrain is partly flat and partly gently sloping. The sanitary facilities are modern and clean. A little insider tip: at the first sanitary block, the step in the dishwashing area is a bit short – just watch your step there so you don't trip. Since the site is right by the river, you should also think about mosquito protection in summer.
