 A friendly welcome from Christine who offered us a lakeside pitch. These pitches are not large, but fortunately we had no immediate neighboured so we did not feel hemmed in. Restaurant was closed, if it is open don't choose the lamb!
Super you a 10 min walk or drive. Salbris only 10 min walk, and it has a few bars and shops. Just outside the site gate you have access to a walk around the lake or walk by the river, wher you might spot the otter family. Facilities were clean but not spectacular. Tried fishing for a couple of hours but didn't catch any thing.
We stayed two nights and would certainly return for a short stopover.

It was an overnight stop just off the autoroute. Access is good and it is handy for the town where there is a supermarket with fuel. The owner speaks excellent English.
The pitches varied quite a bit and none of them massive. Those around the lake could be pretty tight, especially the ones that had a sharpish drop to the water. All separated by hedges and plants.
The 'facilities' were fine, nothing special, but nothing bad either.
They have a cafe which does meals in the evening. The self-service starters were good (supermarket sourced, I suspect) but the main courses were pretty poor. My wife had the last bit of chicken which was OK and I had the lamb chops which were just awful, tough and 50% fat - I guess we are used to excellent lamb in the UK.
I would certainly use it again - but cook my own food!

Only stayed for 1 night as a stop over, facilities dated, but very clean and pleasant. Nice unrestricted hot water for showers and sinks.
Site is situated close to a large lake, also good to walk the dogs as you can do a circuit. Salbris town centre is a brief walk from the site. There is a restaurant on site (didn't use it on this occasion) but they will not do take away. Access to the site is strictly controlled so don't arrive late.
We had a pitch away from the lake as we don't fish but it seems these pitches are taken up/booked pretty quickly.
The lady owner speaks good English and is very pleasant and helpful. We would use this site again as it is on the route south.

Stayed for one night en route to the Dordogne. We didn’t book but as it was May and the weather had been poor there were a lot of empty pitches. We had a pitch next to the lake, so we had a lovely view when sitting in the caravan. As previous reviewers have said, the site is well situated near to the village which can be reached either by road or by walking round the lake first – either way it’s nice to have somewhere to walk to and stretch your legs. Super you not far from the site complete with fuel station.
The toilet/shower block was old but clean and the showers were roomy with hot water. No toilet seats, but there was toilet paper.
The only disappointment was the on site restaurant – the “serve yourself” hors d’oeuvre was fine but the main course was overcooked and not particularly good. The worst meal we encountered in France – maybe we were unlucky. Overall though, a very pleasant site and we would return again.

I think the first thing to say is that the reviews on 'ukcampsite. Co. Uk' are as genuine as you can get. On this holiday we visited three sites (Camping de Sologne being the first) which had been given good reviews and they all lived up to their billing!
We had a lake side pitch (definitely the best option if you can get one) which provided uninterrupted views across a small but serene lake. O. K there was a honking swan and some chattering ducks messing about from time to time but they all added to the charm of the place.
The toilets and showers are a little dated but very clean and efficient and although there are no seats in the loos (common in France) paper WAS provided. The site has good washing up facilities with plenty of hot water and a clothes washing machine is also available at 5 euros a go which includes powder.
When we were there the earlier long hot spell had burnt off most of the grass leaving the pitches a little dusty but not really a problem. Incidentally, despite being right on the waters edge we had no problem with mozzies which we have experienced at other lake side sites. I was not sure if the service had ceased or only operated in the in the high season but no bread delivery was available. However, a short walk around the lake on a sunny morning to a boulangerie about 500 metres away to buy my croissants and baguette was a delight rather than a problem. There is a 'Super U' store also a short walk from the site where all other essentials can be obtained. As others have said, a telephone call (even if only the day before) to book a pitch is essential. The lady proprietress speaks good English if your French is a bit dodgy.
The town of Salbris doesn't have much to offer but some of the local villages are worth a visit especially Pierrefitte-sur-Sauldre. This is a noted floral village with large displays along most of the streets and around the church. Vierzon is the nearest large town but apart from the gardens behind the Hotel de Ville and the large church which has some beautiful stained glass, it doesn't have lot to tempt you to make an early return.

We stopped here as a one night break on the way down to Sarlat, as recommended a lot on here.
We weren't disappointed and our first nights stay in France was spent overlooking the lake in lovely weather and peace and quiet.
Fresh croissants in the morning and a nice restaurant made this a great stopover.
As usual, pros and cons, (because we have to. )
Con first - book or get there early as when it came to 5. 30pm there was a queue of 'guests' outside the gate and things were getting quite 'aggravated' because of the panic that there may not be places.
Pros - peaceful, picturesque, excellent services, supermarkets nearby, reasonable price, secure and perfectly situated for getting back on the A roads to continue the journey. Neither of us ever had to queue for the facilities including nice hot showers, even though the site was full, Excellent!

I would like to echo many of the other reviews about this great site. Spent just one night here in September on the way back home. Very warm & friendly welcome as well as info on the town of Salbris, a very short walk away, either around the lake footpath or along the main road. ( There is a pavement)Shops, bars & restaurants abound in this pretty place. Two well stocked supermarches within walking distance, Carrefour in town with a fuel station & Super you which is a short walk from the lake over the bridge at the back of the site. Toilet facilities are dated, however, they were spotless when we visited. The pitches are a decent size, some around the lakeside and others in alleys. Good value for money-we paid just 16. 50 euros for the night. Very pleased with our brief stay & look forward to staying again.

Arrived in a monsoon on 14th August as part of a trip down the Loire Valley & couldn't tell the lake from the caravan pitch! However when it stopped found it was an excellent site and stayed for three nights. Monday 15th was a Bank Holiday & everywhere was closed but the firework display (free) at night round the lake was something else! Didn't use any restaurants but there are a few close by and on site. Pretty quiet during the day and used a lot as an overnight stop so very busy at night. Clean but dated facilities but would definitely use again if we were in that area.

A great site if you are in transit further south (just off motoway), all pitches have electricity, some water & waste.
Advise booking in advance & ring by five if you are going to be after six. People in queue behind us did not and although they were in line did not go to the office until after six and were turned away.
We had a spot backing onto the lake on our return journey with a guy next door catching carp two feet long(honest).
A number of good places to eat within walking distance Loos clean though old, cannot fault the site it was just what we needed after a long journey.
By the way the cost was 18euros per night including Electricity what a bargain. We will use it again if going to that side of France again and perhaps take a rod and stay a couple of days

Good little site for an overnight stop. When we arrived at 2pm it was deserted, by 7pm it was full, mainly of people heading North or South although we did find some people who were there longer term. The site is very easy to find, five minutes off the A71 autoroute and the N20 runs right through the town of Salbris. Our sat nav was very clear although you do seem to drive into a residential area at first. We had pre booked via email and if you know that this is where you are stopping then I would recommend it – take note of the 6pm no show time, I can understand that now seeing how popular it is. We ate at the (very popular) cafe under a large covered terrace which was perfect as it poured with rain all the time we were there! Snack type food (saucisses, jambon grille, chicken etc), quick service and huge portions of frites! Free wifi at the cafe too.
We had a lakeside pitch which is ideal to fit a caravan/car on, long and narrow, although our overnight tent was fine too. Electricity was nearby as was the water tap. There is a small playground near the entrance.
The OH caught some big carp from the milky coloured lake (up to 20lb) and the fireworks on the other side of the lake were fantastic (We were there on the 15th August) Lots of people seem to time their stay there to coincide with these fireworks which were on at about 10.30pm - so not too late. If it had been dry then we could have sat outside our tent with a glass of wine and watched them!
Toilet blocks fine for one/two nights, clean, no paper or seats as usual. The footpath directly from the site into the town has been blocked off making the site more secure.
We would use this site again and recommend it to others.
