A touring-only site situated on the banks of the River Cher, Le Moulin Fort is a relaxing place to stay with an emphasis on wellbeing. It’s suited to couples and families with older children looking for a peaceful stay, and many visitors return time and again due to its excellent location, friendly atmosphere and hard-working staff.
The level pitches are of a good size and shaded by trees and shrubs, while facilities are well kept and include a bar and restaurant, pool and mini-golf. Twin-axle caravans and large motorhomes will find access to the pitches straightforward.
The site is a short walk from the Château de Chenonceau, once owned by Catherine de Medici and famous for its fairy tale design. The area is excellent for walking, cycling and kayaking, and you can also take a hot air balloon trip from Amboise or a boat trip from opposite the site and float under the Chenonceau arches.

We have stayed at this site many times over the years and the new French owners have invested in the facilities, turning the once dingy bar into an excellent restaurant where non-campers are also welcome. The toilets have also been upgraded somewhat, plenty hot water and individual toilet roll... Show more

We used this site as a two night stop over on our return from the Dordogne. We had a warm welcome and bread order taken for the next day. Pitches are large arranged in a series of ‘cul de sacs’ which we liked. There are a number of riverside pitches... Show more

We only stayed 1 night and it rained pretty much all the time. The location appears good for visiting the Loire valley, but perhaps not a lot to come ‘home’ to. Toilet blocks and showers grubby and slippery and not a lot of care seems to be given which means... Show more

Lovely site in a great location. The pitches are spacious, albeit oddly-shaped in places. The staff are friendly and helpful. Fresh bread can be ordered daily. The on-site restaurant is excellent, although booking is a must as it is also popular with locals and can get really busy. Perfect base for... Show more

Great site for exploring the Loire. Don’t forget your bikes! Handy to get to Chenonceaux castle. As we’d visited before this time we hired a boat from the other side of the river from the campsite. Pool great - if a bit fresh!! We ate at restaurant on site ... Show more

Lovely location by the river and close to plenty of chateaux and vineyards. Friendly and helpful staff, pitches fine. As mentioned, electricity supply and washrooms badly need investment.
