First impressions as we drove towards main entrance were not good as the site was down a small decrepit road and looked old. However, found that the people in reception were very pleasant and the pitches on site were spacious (all on grass).

The amenities are quite basic but kept clean. There are two blocks of amenities- one bigger & better than the other. Both blocks are on a higher level than pitches due to the potential of localised flooding.

We experienced some road noise especially from motorbikes. Also, there is a lot of bird squawking from a nocturnal bird that seemed to go on all night long!

The site is ideally situated for a walk into the historic town of Chalon sur Saone which has some lovely buildings, Cathedral and of course the river. There are plenty of shops & restaurants. There is a trail route around the town available from the Tourist Information and boat trips available.

Although we weren’t there long enough to take advantage, there appeared to be some good cycle routes available.

What a disappointment! Finding a pitch is absolute chaos in spite of being assured by email of a reserved pitch! in the afternoon the tenters arrived,tents in every nook and cranny like a rash! every tiny space filled with no consideration given to fire protection spacing as far as I could see. The photographs in this site description are outdated because there is no unhindered view of the river due to the overgrown foliage on the river bank!

Stayed 4 nights as the voie verte is just outside the gate so great for cyclists. Mid May, been in France 4 weeks and this is easily the busiest site we’ve seen. Almost everyone is just passing through so it empties out and refills every day. Being close to a major route South is probably why but Chalon is worth a day. Free photography museum worth visiting.

This is a very beautiful camp site. we have just spent two nights here and it has been lovely. staff very friendly. always saying hello as they pass by. we are 8.5m motorhome and the pitches were massive. we had loads of space. lovely trees around the site. lovely view of the river too. also very big thank you for providing drinking water point separate from toilet disposal for filling motorhome tank. large load washing machine was great too.
we would definitely recommend this site and we would come back.
thank you.

Very good campsite close to the village although I arrived late & didn’t manage to see it the showers & toilets are very clean very helpful owner he speaks good English there is a bar & small restaurant the site is very clean it is good for walking or cycling along the river
The site is about 10 mins off the motorway if I get the chance will come back again

Used as a stopover site. Facilities clean to French standards. Unfortunately not enough time to walk into Chalon sur Soane, but lovely walks along the river by the campsite.

We stayed for 48hrs. only.This is a long site between the river & a minor road.There were two blocks of toilet/shower facilities, clean well kept. One block,the main block was on a slight incline,which in my opinion may be difficult for some people to access easily. Although this site is advertising \'good views\' of the river, much of it is blocked by trees & shrubs,and opposite the camp is a large cement works!! Reception is on entry to the camp which is the place WI-FI can be accessed. Rubbish &recycling bins are outside the gates, a fair walk from several pitches, further down from the site. The campsite appeared to be run by a family who were all very friendly & helpful especially since our French was limited! This is undoubtedly a popular good \'over night\' camp stop which can be recommended & we\'d be happy to use it again if in the area.

Quite nice riverside location 30 mins walk from town. Some good cycle paths around too.
