Thinking of staying at this site in Sarlat (Dordogne) this summer:  i can't seem to find any user reviews outlining their views.  I've read it's on a hill, although as a 30 year old with a small child (12months in July) I don't really see this as a problem - nonetheless I would appreciate some views.

We've stayed at La Palombiere which isn't far away, both easy access to Sarlat and surroundings. Good pools and a first-class inexpensive restaurant that led us to dine there more often that we intended.

I don't think you'll have a problem with the site you've chosen either - it's 4 star and the French take their camping very seriously indeed. Also, it would risk being marked down by Dutch campers and reviewers if its shower/toilets were less than pristine, and they make up an awfully big proprtion of campers in France in the summer.

Only downside is 6A electricity, but can't think you'll be using a heater much.

The traffic in Sarlat, on market day especially, is dreadful - even when we were there in very early September traffic queues were moving only very slowly.  It's a lovely town to visit, though - and as Les Perieres is within walking distance of the town you'll probably be OK.

We stayed at Soleil Plage, and have stayed before at Le Moulin du Roch - both sites I would highly recommend.
