Alan Rogers Review
You will continue to receive a warm welcome at Camping de la Plage from the new owners, the Defosse family. The site is situated beside the River Lot and is within walking distance of the beautiful historic village of Saint Cirq-Lapopie. It provides a good base for those who want an active holiday with many organised activities available either on site or in the immediate area. There are 120 good sized, level stony/grass pitches, 93 of which are for touring. Forty are fully serviced (6/10A electricity) and have hardstandings. They are separated by hedges and shrubs and a variety of mature trees give good shade.
The site does attract large groups of young people and can become quite lively at times. Swimming is possible in the River Lot, as are fishing and canoeing. There is a bus stop close to the site and lovely medieval towns of Cahors and Figeac are nearby. Saint Cirq-Lapopie, a member of Les Plus Beaux Villages de France, perched on a steep cliff, 100 m. above the river, is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the area.
