  • River Saône campsite five minutes’ drive from Saint-Jean-de-Losne
  • Auxonne 20 minutes’ drive and Dijon 45 minutes
  • Fishing on the river; kids’ entertainment; restaurant and snack bar
Peace, quiet and family time is what it’s all about at Camping Les Herlequins, a motorhome and tent site on the banks of Burgundy’s River Saône. Set in around 90 acres of greenery five minutes’ drive from the centre of Saint-Jean-de-Losne, the grass pitches are all partially shaded and some sit directly on the river banks. The pretty setting and well-kept, heated facilities will please all comers, as will the on-site restaurant serving delicious local cuisine made with quality local produce. There’s a relaxed vibe to the licensed bar – open from breakfast to supper for snacks and drinks – and if you’re after organised entertainment, you can join singing sessions, cooking lessons and games or crafts with the kids. Lively musical evenings often take place on the site too. Happily for the kids, they can also have a run about on the slides and swings, challenge mum and dad to games of pétanque or score goals on the mini-football field. Adults may prefer fishing on the Saône, and if you fancy an epic trip along the river banks, hire electric bikes (easy to use, well-maintained and insured) from the site and get pedalling.

What customers say

This charming campsite is praised for its excellent riverside location, within walking distance of a small town. Visitors highlight the clean toilet and shower facilities, and the very good on-site restaurant and bar. Pitches are described as spacious and often shaded. While many found the staff friendly and welcoming, a few noted issues with hygiene and dated facilities, with some suggesting improvements to cleanliness and maintenance are needed. Despite minor drawbacks, many visitors express a desire to return.

Liked Location of the site is really good, walking distance of small town and close to supermarkets. Restaurant and bar on site. Next to the river with activities to hire.
Great location for a stop on your way south.

Disliked Cleanliness of washing facilities (more frequent cleaning).

Local attractions

Fishing folk, gather round, for this site offers direct access to a small Saône river beach and its diverse fishing, ranging from perch to carp. If you’d rather float down the river than fish in it, hire the site’s own houseboat from reception and chug along the tree-lined waterway. There are also several long-distance hikes passing along the riverbanks to follow on foot or by bike, including the pilgrimage route to Santiago de Compostela in western Spain. If you’re looking to explore by car, make a stop at historic Auxonne (20 minutes’ drive) to see the landmark fort and well-preserved arsenal built by Vauban in 1690, and then have a wander around cobbled streets lined with ochre-coloured half-timbered houses. Gorgeous Dijon (45 minutes) is a splendid spot for a day trip, where you can marvel at medieval and Renaissance art in the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Dijon, then pick up gourmet cheeses and charcuterie from Les Halles Market to eat in the Jardin Botanique de l’Arquebuse.
