Camping de la Météorite, Lakeside campground in Rochechouart, France
Camping de la Météorite is a campground beside a recreational lake in Rochechouart with pitches arranged on terraced slopes. The site covers roughly four hectares and offers around 35 spaces for tents, caravans, and motorhomes, each ranging from 80 to 120 square meters.
The name comes from a meteorite impact that occurred millions of years ago near Rochechouart, creating the visible crater in the area. This ancient geological event shaped the natural landscape where the campground now sits.
The campsite sits in a region shaped by medieval fortresses and traditional villages that reflect the character of Limousin. Visitors can experience how local heritage remains woven into the surrounding landscape.
The campground offers both shaded and open pitches, with internet access throughout the site for guests. The terraced layout means some areas are higher than others, which affects how you navigate around the grounds.
The campground offers direct access to a fishing lake where guests can spend time by the water. A particular convenience is the daily delivery of fresh bread brought to each pitch in the morning.
