Quiet and scenic site halfway between Dijon and Lyon
Well placed for visiting the Burgundy and Beaujolais wine areas
Pool, pétanque, play area, library and flower-filled gardens

If you’re one of those old romantics with a soft spot for days filled with flowers and wine, you’ll fit right in at Camping Les Ripettes, a peaceful little spot just outside Pont de Vaux in the Rhône-Alpes. Flowers are courtesy of owner Isabelle, who dedicates many of her days to planting all sorts of flora at her park to ensure the place is constantly bursting with blooms. And the wine – well, the wine comes from the many vineyards dotted all around this verdant part of the world, with several within an hour's drive. Midway between Dijon and Lyon, Les Ripettes is handily placed not only for visiting wineries but also for birdwatching, pottering around in the surrounding wetlands and canoeing on the Saône river. But it’s not just the location that makes this such a fab choice – it’s also a mighty friendly and relaxed place with games of volleyball, badminton, table tennis and pétanque to fill your time, along with a pool for cooling dips and a play area for the amusement of les enfants. Secretly hoping for a prolonged period of doing nothing? This is the place to embrace it – take a wander through the gardens and select a spot in which to settle. Should you run out of reading matter, there’s a little library to peruse and free wifi to keep your gadget updated. In high season you can buy wine, cold drinks and ice creams on site and order morning bread and pastries to be delivered. Over the summer a snack bar opens three times a week and there’s a pizza takeaway service once a week.

Liked: Peaceful campsite with lovely swimming pool. Liked it so much we stayed an extra day! Nice town near by with little bars. Kids had fun with the toys and games (E.g. big drafts and big connect 4).

Disliked: We arrived late with low supplies. If you’re disorganised like us, it’s worth knowing reception sells just wine (really nice), eggs and honey.

Liked: We arrived at this site for a quick overnight stay whilst heading to South of France, we had a very warm welcome from the owner. The site is in a quiet rural area surrounded by nature. The pitch sizes were huge. The reception was stocked with local produce and you could order order fresh bread and croissaints for the following morning. The swimming pool, although wasn't big was clean and had a seating area with shade. The pool is open is 8pm. We were pitched close to reception and facilities which were clean. We didn't venture to the second block located further down the campsite. Overall lovely stay and would recommend. Please be aware that our sat nav sent us through a small bridge for vehicles under 2m. So double check this before arriving to go in a different route if yours is taller!

Disliked: Felt like there wasn't enough toilets in the block near reception for the number of guests that were using this block

From the manager: Bonjour Monsieur, Bonjour Madame, merci pour votre retour. Pour Information, en France, il faut porter un maillot de bain à la piscine. Se baigner avec le short et les sous vêtement du jour ne sont pa hygiénique. Nous vous accueillerons avec plaisir une prochaine fois.

Local attractions

Wine-based days are within day-trip distance: take tours, taste the wares and pick up single bottles or several cases – all up to you. The Burgundy region is an hour’s drive away, and the vineyards and wineries around Mâcon about 20 minutes or so. From Mâcon, follow the wine trail down the banks of the Saône river as far as Beaujolais, calling into numerous vineyards that overlook the river as you go. (Should you prefer to head straight to Beaujolais, it’s about a 50-minute drive). A spot of gentle exercise is almost certainly a good idea too when your hols are likely to involve much guzzling: walks close to the site take in the wetlands that are a real birdwatching haven, and villages full of timbered farmhouses with decorative Saracen chimneys to keep an eye out for. Horse and pony riding trips run from an equestrian centre five minutes’ drive away, or head to Mâcon for a pleasant paddle on the waters of the Saône in a canoe or kayak.
