  • Peaceful, well-equipped site in the Parc naturel régional du Haut-Jura
  • Parc Polaire 25 minutes’ drive; Plage de la Mercantine 45 minutes
  • Playground, games room and pétanque; sauna; restaurant with a terrace
Oh wow, what a spectacular location in eastern France, close to the Swiss border: Domaine du Bugnon sits in the Parc naturel régional du Haut-Jura, at the feet of a forested plateau laced with trails, which you can explore on foot (bring your best boots), by bike or on horseback. They’ll take you past lush valleys, waterfalls and lakes, and to observation points with splendid views of the distant Alps. But don’t think for a minute that you’ll be completely cut off from the world here (though it might feel that way) – this family-friendly site is a 10-minute drive from the village of Saint-Laurent-en-Grandvaux, with its shops and restaurants, plus a skate park for the kids and a casino for the grown-ups… If the children don’t fancy having a go on the half-pipe, there’s a playground on site (with a trampoline and a sandpit), not to mention a vast lawn that is just perfect to fly a kite, and a games room. Meanwhile, the adults can relax with a game of pétanque or practise their backhand on the tennis court (for which there is an additional fee). After all that exertion, the infrared sauna (with a gentler heat than Finnish saunas) might help soothe any aching muscles (there’s an additional fee here too). Regional specialities such as fondue feature prominently on the menu at the restaurant, which also serves flaky pastries and freshly baked bread for breakfast. Enjoy your meals on the terrace, while taking in incomparable views of the lush mountainous landscape. In addition to a toilet block with facilities for disabled guests, the site has a launderette and a drying room.

What customers say

A chill spot with friendly hosts in a lovely rural setting. Guests loved the peace, scenery, sauna and games. A few flagged overgrown pitches and concerns over the chemical toilet's condition and location.

Liked Ici le mot Camping prend tout son sens, on arrive quand on veut, on repart quand on veut, pas du samedi au samedi, l'équipement est rudimentaire, mais l'essentiel est là, Camping calme accueillant, emplacement grand et ombragé, nous n'avons pas pu manger au restaurant car complet,

Disliked les douches peuvent être froides et l'eau pour faire la vaisselle également

Liked Emplacements calmes, bar et restaurants attenants au camping, jolies balades à pied autour du Lac-des-rouges-truites. Suffisamment de douches et de toilettes.

Disliked Douches froides le soir après 21h, et peu de savon dans le distributeur des lavabos (penser à apporter son savon).

Liked This was our first camping trip outside the UK and we were not disappointed. We arrived to a friendly welcome and were booked onto our pitch promptly. The pitch was a good size for our large tent. Shower and toilet facilities were clean, there was a separate area for washing up, and freezer for ice packs. The site had lots of activities for all ages including a trampoline and pentanque, a pool table inside and board games. We ate at the restaurant on our final night, and were pleasantly surprised by the standard of food. The restaurant also did take out pizza which was delicious. Overall, the site was in a lovely location, the owners were friendly and welcoming and we had a peaceful and pleasant stay.

Liked A delightful, beautiful, peaceful site in the middle of nowhere, it seems, and yet connected to loads of gorgeous countryside and villages. It is obviously on a cross country ski route! A small site with a fabulous auberge with a restaurant, bar, takeaway and extremely friendly and hospitable hosts. We loved it!

Disliked Our only slight concern was the chemical toilet facility which seemed too close to washing up and fresh water facilities. I felt uncomfortable using it. It was also confusing as to which washroom was to be used by whom! I should have asked!

Local attractions

If the children (or you) are into wildlife, head to the Parc Polaire (25 minutes’ drive), where you might pretend to be in Alaska or Lapland as you spot reindeer and bison. For a more hands-on approach, the Parc animalier du Hérisson (35 minutes) allows the kids to get up close and personal with miniature ponies and dwarf goats. The collection at the Musée du jouet de Moirans-en-Montagne (45 minutes) spans millennia, with an Egyptian doll from the 16th century BC, medieval toys and vintage teddy bears, plus traditional toys from the Jura region. Plage de la Mercantine (45 minutes), on the Lac de Vouglans reservoir, is a picture-perfect spot for an afternoon by the water. Explore the wooded coves along the shore by pedal boat (you can hire one at the marina), then be sure to drive to the Belvedere Vouglans Dam (50 minutes), at the southernmost tip of the lake, for far-reaching views.
