Camping La Citadelle is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts. The campsite has a variety of activities to suit everyone's tastes. Start your day with a leisurely walk or bike ride along the scenic riverbanks, or for the more daring, go kayaking on the Indre River. The surrounding lush countryside is also ideal for birdwatching and wildlife photography.
The campsite has a lovely swimming pool where you can cool off on hot summer days for those looking for a more relaxed experience. Camping La Citadelle also has a dedicated children's playground, making it an excellent choice for families.
The campsite's on-site restaurant, "Le Bistrot de la Citadelle," serves mouthwatering French cuisine made with locally sourced ingredients. From savoury crepes to escargot, you can savour the flavours of the Loire Valley right at your doorstep.
For those who prefer to cook their own meals, the campsite has a well-equipped communal kitchen and barbecue area. You can also purchase fresh produce from local markets and enjoy a delightful picnic by the river.
One of the most appealing aspects of the campsite is its proximity to the historic town of Loches. The town is well-known for its magnificent mediaeval citadel, which dates from the 9th century. Camping La Citadelle takes its name from this magnificent fortress, which towers over the campsite and provides an unforgettable backdrop for your camping adventure.
Visiting the citadel during your stay is a must. Explore the well-preserved dungeons, ascend the spiral staircases, and gaze out over the town and surrounding countryside from the ramparts. Loches also has a charming market square lined with cosy cafes and artisan shops where you can sample local delicacies and immerse yourself in the culture of the region.
Begin by exploring the town's iconic medieval citadel, Château de Loches. This historic fortress has well-preserved dungeons, panoramic ramparts, and a lovely royal lodge. The museum inside provides information about the region's history.
About a 45-minute drive from Loches, Chenonceau is one of the most famous and beautiful Loire Valley châteaux. It spans the Cher River and features exquisite architecture, beautiful gardens, and an intriguing history.
