Beautifully located on the banks of the River Loue, this site offers a pleasant, family-focused stay in a relatively unknown corner of France. High season is busy, with plenty to do including fishing, kayaking and swimming. The shallows of the gently flowing river provide a relatively safe place for children to bathe.
Fresh bread and pastries from the village bakery are delivered to the site each morning, and the onsite restaurant, which serves family favourites, has a lovely terrace overlooking the river.
Being near the foothills of the Jura mountains, there are some excellent walking and cycling routes around and about. It’s also possible to arrange wine and cheese tastings through reception. The protected town of Besançon is great to explore, with its Roman architecture, art museum and UNESCO-listed citadel.

A friendly welcoming site, with big pitches, spoilt by constant swarming flies. In my view, the fly problem will be a constant issue during the summer months as the site is located next to a farm. The site river has gently sloping sides making it assessable to swim in.... Show more

Arrived here in August for a 2 night stop on route to the French Alps. Site very full, as expected, but also extremely noisy. Restaurant was OK but there were a lot of flies and the WiFi was very slow and kept dropping out. Pitches are delimited by hedges and... Show more

One disappointment was that the restaurant closes at the end of August and this needs to be noted in the... Show more
