We're at a fantastic municipal on the river Cele in the Lot ... pitched right beside the river ... beautiful scenery with limestone cliffs and dense wooded hillsides ... lovely small waterfall 50 meters away, gurgles throughout the day, and allows river bathing ... perfect launching fo the kayak ... flat road all the way beside the river for miles in either direction: great for bikes .... kayak hire on site if you need it.

Nice little restaurant/bar on site ... very friendly management couple ... not overcrowded ... another good value restaurant/bar/boulangerie ... 100 meteres in the small village.

Loads of pretty villages and places to visit ...

Under 15 euros a night for caravan/2 people/electricity ....

Where in the UK could you get that?

...We are in France in September, if we have to pay more than 1€ for a baguette, or I suffer from constipation.......I’m blaming BREXT! 😡

We're in France in September too... you could be unlucky enough to bump into us on your travels, so there's another reason for potential constipation right there!

Indeed Mucker........But you could be the cure! 😀👍💩💩

I've read that 5 times now, Mike... and I still can't work out if that's a compliment or not!!

In 2008 it was nearly on par with the £, I guess that must have been Brexit too!

Longcol - don't know what washing powder you use, but Lidl now do Ariel at slightly less than we pay in the UK.However we find Lidl's cheap 'Active' liquid works very well. Their chickens are also very good, as are the Charolais steaks. Our Lidl steaks were hands-down better than two which cost more than four times as much per kilo! (Comparison between friends when they stayed on the same campsite recently).

Its forty degrees here at the moment,, and after a lovely gazpacho for lunch we're going swimming in the local gorge - a fabulous spot with deep pools. Yesterday we were at the beach at Leucate and saw a 15 inch ray (flatfish with a long tail) swimming alongside us in.the shallows.


This weekend we're taking our caravan off site and going to see our son and his family. We're pitching.up in the field adjoining the gite where they're staying . Hope our hook up cable is long enough!!
