9 Rue du Fort, 12210, Laguiole
Been here?
A small, very quiet parking area at the highest point of Laguiole, overlooking the valley and close to the town. The centre is about 4 minutes away on foot, but access is steep, narrow, and winding, with a 2m60 width limitation. It is intended for vans and small converted vehicles, not larger motorhomes. Clean automatic toilets are open from 6h to 22h, and a drinking-water point is nearby, but there are no bins.

We could not go there because vehicle width is limited to 2.60 metres. We retreated to the cheese dairy's car park, which was spacious and quiet.
A very good, quiet and cool night. Indeed, there were three of us, with rather small vehicles. A lovely moment shared at this spot in nature. The toilets are downhill and open from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. No bins on site—let's preserve this spot.
Quiet site above the village, with clean sanitary facilities and a water point. Overlooking the valley, lulled by the distant sound of cowbells. We were three: one van and two converted cars. A lovely encounter with a young person from the Puy-de-Dôme region, also on an adventure.
Great, peaceful spot overlooking Laguiole. There were two of us; a very pleasant and restful night. Indeed, only suitable for vans and panel vans.
We spent a very quiet, starry night in this ideally located car park for visiting Laguiole, with seven other vans present without getting in each other's way. Nor did we disturb the local residents, since the site surrounds the cemetery. Very clean automatic-cleaning toilets with paper are at the entrance to the second cemetery, 100 metres downhill. Thank you to the municipality.
It is a beautiful place, without facilities, with a phenomenal view. The church is simple and often open. But the road there is extremely steep and narrow, with quite a few hairpin bends. Width limit: 2.50 metres. Only for vans and coachbuilt motorhomes. Larger campers really should not come here.
I drove up with a 7-metre, 170-hp motorhome; it was difficult. However, there is currently construction equipment, which makes me think I might cause an obstruction, so I prefer to return to the town centre.
Alone in the world! Quiet, sunset, and close enough to visit.
The spot is ultimately quite easy to access by van. We were almost alone for two nights; it was quiet, with drinking water and toilets nearby. Ideal for visiting Laguiole on foot and taking walks in the surrounding area, such as the Roman bridge and Oules waterfall. We love it!
Great for one night. Access with a 6.36-metre panel van is difficult but possible; impossible with a motorhome. Quiet, with a picnic table.
A beautiful area that you earn by climbing above the village, very quiet near the cemetery, with a beautiful view.
Very steep climb for a panel van! The site is currently unusable and inaccessible due to construction; part of it is closed and muddy. We will park elsewhere for the night, unfortunately.
On 7 May there was nobody there, and access was no problem with a small motorhome. Perfect for the afternoon and night. Walks in Laguiole and walks with the dog. Good location.
Even in the mist, without a view, it is a beautiful, peaceful place, especially when you are completely alone.
Very pleasant, quiet parking area, although extremely windy during our winter visit (-7°C), which did not bother us. The streets leading to the spot are narrow, making it very suitable for a van or panel van. Very peaceful night.
Beautiful esplanade accessible via Church Street. No problem getting there with our 6.10-metre, 2.25-metre-wide motorhome. There was still plenty of room. Beautiful view.
