Camping du Pont de Mazérat, Campground in Marcillac-Saint-Quentin, France
Camping du Pont de Mazérat is a campground in Marcillac-Saint-Quentin with around 80 spacious pitches for tents, caravans, and motorhomes set along a small river. The site offers electric hookups at each pitch, modern sanitary facilities, and a heated swimming pool that operates seasonally.
The campground was established in the Dordogne region during the mid-to-late 20th century as outdoor tourism grew across France. Its location along a river in this rural area made it an appealing destination for families seeking a nature-based vacation experience.
The on-site restaurant serves regional Périgord dishes and introduces visitors to local specialties like foie gras and truffles sourced from nearby producers. These meals connect the camping experience to the gastronomic traditions that define this part of France.
The site provides electric hookups at each pitch and a heated swimming pool open from April through October. Visitors should check availability in advance, especially during the busy summer season, to ensure the campground can accommodate their group size.
The location occasionally serves as a landing point for hot air balloons participating in local aerial tours. Guests may witness this uncommon sight when balloons descend and touch down within or near the campsite grounds.

The Dordogne-Périgord region hosts campsites located near medieval castles, decorated caves, and forested valleys. These sites feature heated pools, water slides, and facilities for families. Several sites lie along the edges of the Dordogne and Vézère rivers, allowing canoeing and swimming. Campsites such as Le Capeyrou in Beynac-et-Cazenac provide access to the area's fortresses, while Tiradou near Les Eyzies is situated in the heart of the Vézère Valley and its prehistoric sites. The pitches are set among trees, with various amenities including restaurants, sports fields, playgrounds, and watercraft rentals. Saint Avit Loisirs and Les Truffières offer aquatic complexes with heated pools and paddling pools. Le Paradis de Maillac in Saint-Léon-sur-Vézère organizes children's clubs seasonally.
