Camping in the middle of nature “Wild Camp”

Especially for hikers, backpackers, nature enjoyers and (small) adventurers, the holiday domain "Le Domaine du Moulin Neuf 1605" offers you a unique opportunity to “Wild Camp” nature camping (also called wild camping) in the purest form possible. Far away from the hustle and bustle, you literally can't see your “Wild Camp” camping spot for the trees!

This is a Campspace location!

“Wild Camp” Camping in its purest form

With your (pop-up) tent in the large forest in an idyllic place among wild animals such as deer, deer and foxes. Or on the large dam of the lake near the river with calmly rippling water so you can enjoy paddling and taking a dip in the lake. Or along the waterfront on one of the banks of the lake between the bushes and bamboo with lots of privacy. That is “Wild Camp” nature camping in its purest form and it is all possible at the holiday domain “Le Domaine du Moulin Neuf 1605”, which is characterized by its small scale with respect for peace, space and of course nature!

“Wild Camp” Nature camping is not camping on a campsite

The holiday domain ‘Le Domaine du Moulin Neuf 1605’ is neither a campsite nor a large holiday park but something in between in a beautiful historical location with a large natural lake, a river (Le Périgord) and large forests. You spend the night in your own tent on the holiday domain, in the forest or by the water, where you are offered a number of practical facilities such as sanitary and recreational facilities.

On the holiday domain ‘Le Domaine du Moulin Neuf 1605’, a number of natural camping pitches have been designated as ‘Wild Camp’. The sites have a natural location, in the forest, at the dam or along the banks. Small scale but nice and spacious, giving more peace and privacy! The number of available ‘Wild Camp’ natural camping spots is limited to just 8 spread over 25 hectares of domain land, and every effort is made to provide guests with as much space as possible.

“Wild Camp” Nature camping with good facilities

Enjoy a cozy and safe stay at the “Wildkamperen” on the holiday domain “Le Domaine du Moulin Neuf 1605” with a bit of comfort. Basic sanitary facilities are available and are located on the edge of the forest near the camper pitches.

The sanitary facilities consist of 2 toilets, 2 hot showers with water from the private source and a washing-up facility (with hot water). Toilet paper is provided so you don't have to carry your own toilet roll.

The sanitary facilities are shared with the other “Wild Camp” and “Camper Space” visitors on the holiday domain, so no private sanitary facilities per tent! The guests of the holiday homes "Gîtes" naturally have their own sanitary facilities in the holiday homes "Gîtes".
Finally, a "Laundry Service" with washing machine and dryer is available for a fee for guests who have been on the road for a while.

Of course, you have to take into account that the sanitary facilities are not directly next to your tent and you have to walk a bit to go to the toilet or shower. The “Wild Camp” nature camping spots on the dam and along the banks of the lake are the closest to the sanitary building, but you can still easily walk about 150 meters to reach the toilet and shower.

If you go “Wild Camp” nature camping (wild camping) in the woods of the holiday domain, you will soon have to walk about 500-750 meters to visit the toilet and shower, but then it is really “Wild Camp” nature camping.

Guests who use the “Wild Camp” natural camping sites in the woods for wild camping are allowed to dig a hole in the ground themselves and do their business there as they should in the wild. Many small streams with clean and drinkable water flow through the forests, which is very nice to have near your tent.

“Wild Camp” Nature camping and recreation

Nature camping or wild camping is already a form of recreation, you seek peace and space in the middle of nature to relax and completely unwind by becoming one with nature! Still, it's nice if there's something more than just that. To help you enjoy the peace and quiet, it is nice to know that you can swim and fish in natural water. There is a river “Le Périgord” with a waterfall where you can enjoy paddling and where the children can play. 

There are many forests where you can walk and cycle for hours, and finally there is a campfire area for cozy evenings under the open starry sky to enjoy a snack, a drink and a good conversation with other guests.
