For this 2023 season, Slow Village has decided to set up shop in the Dordogne, in the former Bel Ombrage campsite. It is 20 minutes south of Sarlat, in the shade of chestnut trees and on the banks of the Céou River that you can enjoy a new bucolic refuge in the heart of the Périgord Noir. Discover the incomparable charm of this little corner of paradise for a 100% slow holiday in the heart of a preserved nature. And if you want even more, the numerous hiking trails along the most beautiful vill... ages of France, or the canoeing excursions on the Dordogne should finish convincing you. See you in Saint Cybranet

We were staying in our campervan on a pitch with a slow box which is such an amazing idea. There are so many beautiful places to visit in the area and to come back after a day site seeing and spend some time in the pool and relaxing in the evening was very welcome. We would recommend the Slow Village to anyone.
There was nothing we disliked. We would have liked to have a drink poolside but fully understand the reasoning behind the rules.
Accommodation review
Large pitch with plenty of space for chilling out.

The campsite is absolutely beautiful, lots of trees, flowers and therefor feels very natural. It is situated in an ideal location, from which you can visit loads of fun things in the surrounding area. They have a nice little restaurant/bar, which is ideal for if you are feeling lazy and don't want to cook ;) Really recommend!
We visited Slow Village as a couple - and we noticed that there are a lot of families with kids. Of course you're not going to be able to avoid that completely (it's a camping thing), but therefor I would not necessarily say it as a 'romantic' atmosphere for us as a couple.
Accommodation review
Lots of trees and bushes which made the spot quite private, even though the camping was fully booked.
The spots next to us were families with very young kids, who were waking up very early and making lots of noise throughout the day. Of course that is not something that Slow Village can prevent, but it was a bit intense for us as a couple.

Slow village has been a really nice experience on our trip and we regret that we couldn't be there more days. The environment is truly peaceful and natural, quiet and perfect to disconnect. Having such a river accessible to the bath I like especially
Accommodation review
I have particularly liked the design so well-used and the good condition and functioning of all services. We hope it's staying like this because we hope to come back
I think that the service of sheets and towels should be included in the price, as it is an essential service in any accommodation. This point would make price quality ratio more consistent

We were apprehensive as the campsite had a change of ownership, but we were pleasantly surprised and the general atmosphere had not changed and the staff were friendly and helpful.
There had been some disruption to areas due to earthworks undertaken but it is clear the campsite staff are on course to restore the landscaping during the course of the next year.
Accommodation review
The grass and hedges were well maintained on our pitch and the staff were very accommodating.
The site exits and entrances are on a bend on a fast road and it would be appropriate to have a speed limit/traffic calming as there are families with bicycles and caravans regularly entering/exiting the site.

Having the river next to the site was great and the children loved the pool.
Had a great time and loved the site. Only slight negatives were it was very noisy at night. We had a family next to us who were shouting and playing music until after midnight. Pool needs more umbrellas. More signage needed in bathroom. People didn’t know which was washing up, washing clothes , brushing teeth.
