What sort of site?  Do you have children with you?  Do you prefer quiet or lively?  We like

Le Perpetuum near Domme, which is across the river, but not far as the crow flies (12.5 km driving distance) from Sarlat.  It's cheap at 13 euros per night, in June (using the ACSI Card, www.campingcard.co.uk).  That covers pitch, car and caravan, two adults,
awning, electricity and one dog (and if you have young children up to three under sixes are included in that price).  Nice pool, nice riverside setting, good sanitary facilities, walking distance to bars and restaurants along the river.......... but not to
Domme itself, which is a long uphill walk.  You just need the sun, and you'll be in heaven.

I remember when Indigo Sarlat was Les Perieres, and was a popular Canvas Holidays and Eurocamp site.  Then new owners took over, and we heard people complaining about their attitude.  We even bumped into a bit of a 'protest' in the middle of Sarlat, when a group of families were holding a protest about the site owner's treatment of their children, and then them as families!  I have to say that was a very long time ago.

It was dropped from the tour operators, and seemed to go off radar for a time.  It's nice to see that it's now back under the 'Indigo' banner, with a complete renovation. We've found Indigo sites generally very 'green' (eco) type sites, and the ones we've stayed at have been very good!

We have stayed at Camping Maisonneuf at Castelnaud la Chappelle on and off since 1972, in June it's quiet which suits us, they are on ACSI which helps, we have the pool virtually to ourselves, just lie there and watch the Red and Black Kites soaring overhead
also Hot Air ballons regularly fly over the site.The site is about 6 miles from Sarlat and the village has what you need without going into Sarlat, not to be missed is the Market in Sarlat held on a Wednesday and Saturday

We've stayed at Moulin du Roch more than once, and in late August when we met friends there a couple of years ago, there were plenty of free pitches down in the bottom 'meadow' which is the area we like.  We still managed to book a table in the restaurant
and there were no queues for the shower facilities.  The sanitary blocks are good.  

In late July and early August, as longtimecaravanner suggests, it may be very different.

For us the downside was that the site isn't within walking distance of any bars and restaurants, except a roadside one which wasn't open when we were there.

We have used Camping Aqua Viva twice  and enjoyed it, there is a quiet lane adjacent that leads to an old railway line  cycle track, at the trout farm next door the owner catches your fish and dispatches it so they dont
come any fresher. Its not a particularly big site and under Dutch management, well run.

However our last visit was 2004 and things may be changed

David, it has changed, new owners since 2004 who have installed quite a number of additional Mobile Homes
