Pros

The hospitality, the location, the services, and the ambiance are fantastic. The site/accommodation is calm, nestled in nature, intimate, and close to amenities (toilets, swimming pool, dishes...).

Cons

It might be a good idea to remind the kids to watch out for pedestrians when they speed by on their bikes... But, well, the responsibility lies with the parents!

Pros

A beautiful, natural campsite. A lot of care has been put into its development, and you can see it reflected in every aspect. Pitch/Rental accommodation: Green, spacious spots. A delightful place to stay!

Cons

We visited in September, which meant that parts of the campsite were already closing (bakery, restaurant, part of the sanitation facilities). Although this was indicated on the website, it does detract somewhat from the atmosphere. Pitch/Rental accommodation: Next to us was the wellness area where groups can also rent a hall with a garden. There was a large group (about 30 people) staying over the weekend that made a lot of noise until 2:00 AM. It's a shame that this is allowed when there is plenty of space for groups by the river. Once we brought it up, they did take it into consideration.

Its location directly on the beautiful River Loire offers many opportunities for activities from swimming to canoeing - so enterprising families, those seeking relaxation, outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers are in good hands here.

Child-friendly, ecological campsite on the River Loire in Auvergne

The campsite is located on the River Loire in the idyllic Auvergne region in the heart of France. The charming medieval village of Chamalières-sur-Loire is just 2 kilometres away. CosyCamp offers a choice of different categories of pitches, all of which are very spacious. The nature variant is not clearly demarcated and has no electricity connection. All of the other 57 pitches are parcelled out and are either 100 square metres or even 200 square metres in size and offer a 16 ampere power connection. There is also free Wi-Fi and three well-maintained sanitary blocks. If you wish, you can unwind in the wellness area with its Roman-style indoor pool with counter-current system or relax with a massage. The special feature and meeting point at CosyCamp is the lounge, which also houses the reception, bar and restaurant in the basement. Here guests can get to know each other and find out about the campsite's offers and excursion destinations in the region. The cosy barefoot area with carpet, television and play corner is located on the upper floor. In addition, the terrace invites you to spend cosy summer evenings by the Swedish fire. There are also designated areas on the campsite where campers can make a campfire or barbecue together as a family or with other guests.

Medieval villages and idyllic river landscapes

The beach on the River Loire is right in front of the campsite. Holidaymakers can also hire canoes to explore the natural surroundings. The large grounds of the CosyCamp are ideal for walks and bird watching, as well as for visiting the vegetable and aromatic garden. There is also a playground and a climbing park for children. The surrounding area is ideal for hiking or cycling tours, for which guests can borrow maps from reception. The historic village of Chamalières-sur-Loire, which dates back to the 12th century, is just 1.5 km away on foot.
