The French town of Doué-la-Fontaine is located in the Maine-et-Loire department between Angers and Saumur. This region in the Loire is known for its castles, vineyards, and picturesque villages. But also the impressive marl quarry of Falun. The Les Rives du Douet campsite is a small-scale family campsite that can be used as a base for visiting these attractions.

Liked - It was quiet, we were given a lot of helpful information about the site, facilities and the local area. The staff took great care to ensure the site was well maintained and cleaned and they went above and beyond in ensuring we had all we needed. The showers were the best I've found on any site so far and there was toilet paper in the loos. Great!
Disliked - If the showers in Sanitaires 1 could match the ones in Sanitaires 2 in terms of layout, that would be perfect!
