Charente has 15 campsites, dominated by river bank (7 establishments), followed by lake bank (4), pond bank (2) and, more marginally, sea bank (1). It is an inland department, structured by the Charente river giving it its name.
River-bank campsites mainly line this watercourse and its tributaries, in vineyard landscape and green countryside. Lake banks, less numerous, offer an alternative for calm water swimming, while ponds complete the offering for fishing enthusiasts.
Charente thus addresses campers seeking a green stay, away from the coast, in a territory marked by vineyard and local crafts.
Charente is inseparable from cognac, produced in the vineyard bearing its name and extending over much of the department. Trading houses, around Cognac, open their cellars for visiting to discover this spirit's elaboration stages.
Angoulême, perched on its rocky promontory, is renowned for its ramparts offering wide panorama over the Charente valley, as well as for its international comic book festival, one of the world's most important.
The Charente river, navigable over much of its course, lends itself to boat trips or canoeing through preserved countryside.
Every by the water campsite is checked against its official listing and real photos, not a marketing pitch.
We cross-check public Google ratings and reviews. An establishment below family standards doesn't make the selection.
