from 108 reviews Write review

Camping du Vieux Château is situated in the famous Saint-Emilion wine region, located at the foot of the medieval castle of Rauzan. You will find centuries-old trees on the camping grounds. It is very green and tranquil. Rauzan is within walking distance and the cities of Libourne and Bordeaux are not far away.

Campsite with a rich history

Nature on the campsite is rich in history with some trees being older than 100 years. The campsite looks like a park and offers ample shade. You can opt for a sunny pitch or one completely in the shade. The pitches are all spacious (at least 120 m2) and demarcated with shrubs. They have a grass surface. Want to rent something? There are rental mobile homes and bungalows, as well as a converted, old Swiss army truck. Unique!

Elegant swimming pool

The heated swimming pool has an attractive design and ample space and greenery around it. Pot plants, loungers and sun umbrellas create a nice atmosphere. The lovely, circular toddler pool has a water slide. From here you also have a splendid view of the nearby castle.

Geocaching

There is also a playground with a bouncing castle, a spring rider and a double swing. You can also have fun on the multi-sports field. In peak season, owner Tom offers archery lessons and geocaching. Also during peak season, social evenings are held in and around the restaurant on Thursdays.

Restaurant with nice terrace

There is a restaurant with a limited menu and a cosy terrace. The tent cloth covering makes this a nice and shady spot. In the camping shop you can buy some basic foodstuffs and regional products.

€17 per night during lowseason
Campsite accepts ACSI Club ID

Liked - We kregen een goede kampeerplek voor onze tent. We hebben mooie wandelingen gemaakt en bezochten uiteraard Saint Emilion. We zijn onder de indruk van de inzet en ijver van de campingbazen. Ze doen er echt alles aan om het voor de bezoekers aangenaam en comfortabel te maken. Het camping terrein is parkachtig en daar houden we van. Voldoende privacy! Het afwaswater zou wel wat warmer mogen; de douches hebben wel een fijne temperatuur.
Disliked - Een kleine opmerking: de temperatuur van het afwaswater mag echt wel wat omhoog!
