Your Feedback Matters to Us!
We really enjoyed our stay at this campsite. Very welcoming and always ready to help. The pitch for our tent was perfect. The sanitary facilities were spotless! I will happily come back!
We spent a wonderful week as a family (a 4-year-old child and a dog) in one of the mobile homes. The setting is very pleasant, green, and peaceful, perfectly located to explore the area. Evelyne and Christophe are lovely and attentive—thank you so much 🙏. The accommodation was spotless and lacked nothing. The supermarket and petrol station right opposite may seem minor, but they were really convenient. The children’s playground was a big hit, both for our daughter, who had a blast, and for the parents, who got a few hours to relax! We also joined the evening event organised by the campsite. Very friendly and sociable, we had a really great time. In short, nothing to complain about—we had an excellent stay. Thank you again!!
Beautiful campsite, perfectly located where we enjoyed great moments with friends. The chalet was clean, suited for 5 adults, and had a lovely terrace for enjoying drinks and meals while admiring the mountain views. Hikes start directly from the campsite, and no car is needed for shopping—the supermarket is just across the road. Christophe and his wife gave us a warm welcome and responded to all our requests throughout the stay. I recommend this place without hesitation.
We just spent a week at this campsite. It is ideally located both for exploring the region and for daily holiday life. The campsite and accommodations are very well maintained, and Évelyne and Christophe go above and beyond to ensure your stay is perfect. It’s wonderful to see people so committed.
Great stay at Camping la Marmotte Sites et Paysages. Large pitch with an amazing view! Nature and sports activities start right from the campsite, just as we love. Dogs are, of course, very welcome. Above all, the kindness and friendliness of the owners (Évelyne and Christophe) make it easy to chat, laugh, and share moments 😊. We’ll definitely be back! Thank you for this wonderful break in the heart of Auvergne.
