Been here?
This shaded riverside wild spot at the Sireuil lock is quiet at night and suitable for Max 2/3 campers. It has picnic tables, rubbish bins and the sound of water flowing through the lock area. Occasional cars, walkers and boats pass nearby, while cycle paths follow the river. The approach is short and bumpy, with some potholes.

Quiet place with the sound of a waterfall in the background due to the height difference at the locks. With some luck, you can watch boats pass through the locks. Very tidy, with picnic benches and bins. Shady spot for a maximum of two or three campers. We were alone and it was wonderful. You can make a beautiful bike ride along the river. We had a wonderful night. Thanks to the municipality!
Quiet place to spend the night. Woken by the crowing rooster and birdsong. On the other hand, somewhat dirty, with lots of broken glass on the ground. It is a shame not to respect a place like this.
We spent the night here and were alone. There was a little traffic in the evening. No mosquitoes. Recycling bins and a glass collection point on site.
Quiet, shady spot by the water, very little traffic. Ideal for a stopover!
Beautiful spot along the river and a quiet road. A few cars and walkers. At night you hear nothing—slept wonderfully. There are excellent cycle paths along the river from there. Great.
Beautiful. Quiet, with the gentle gurgling of the river and birdsong. Full blossoms and fresh spring greenery. Hardly any visitors.
Good spot, lovely view of the lock, some traffic on the towpath during the day but quiet at night; we slept very well. Tables and bins available.
Very good location, pleasant by the water with the possibility of fishing and a view of the swans. I recommend it.
A lovely place for the day and to spend the night, but we were unlucky: people next to us played music at full volume at 2 a.m., so we left.
Very quiet place with a picnic table and a great view! One small downside: at night we can see the headlights of cars on the road a little farther away.
Very nice place for a short meal break. Equipped with stone tables. Quiet and very pleasant.
Very quiet night. Short, bumpy approach with several potholes. In my opinion, more suitable for small campers.
Top of the top! A little piece of paradise. Extremely quiet and relaxing. The view of the lock and the Charente is magnificent. We spent two days and two nights here and it was great! Laundry, bread vending machine and very clean toilets next to the campsite; otherwise, 5 km away in Sireuil, there is a bakery and a Vival. Accessible to heavy vehicles.
The night of May 20, 2023 was particularly quiet and pleasant in this small, clean parking area equipped with picnic tables and recycling bins. Thanks to the municipality for this lovely space. Fishing and walking on site.
