  • Quiet and peaceful family camping
  • Seasonal swimming pool and modern leisure facilities
  • Activities organised during summer
The team at friendly Camping de Saulieu in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté's Côte-d'Or reckon this is a land of leisure and flavours: settle down here for a spell and see if you reckon they're right (spoiler: oui). The foodie part comes from the site's locale between French capital Paris and French cuisine capital Lyon – no argument there – and the leisure side from the array of activities to take on in the surrounding countryside, from hiking to biking, rock climbing to rafting, among its woodland and lakes. Horse riding is available within a kilometre – French countryside cantering…? Oui. Leisure on site includes a seasonal pool open from May to September, a sports area, pétanque court, ping pong and a playground. The team also sorts out entertainment for all in the summer season, ranging from weekly sports tournaments and theme nights to a kids' club which takes place twice per week.

Local attractions

Among the leisurely options in the countryside surrounding Camping de Saulieu are the aforementioned horse riding within about a few minutes' walk, carriage rides within a kilometre, a mountain biking circuit within two and fishing within four. Getting watery, diving is available 12km away and sailing, canoeing, kayaking, rafting, boating and pedalo trips within 20. The town of Saulieu, a kilometre away, is well worth a trip for its sixth-century Basilica of Saint Andoche with over 60 biblical narratives carved into its stone. A market is held in town every Saturday morning. Other tiptop places to visit in the region are Chamboux Lake four kilometres away and Morvan Nature Park within a 13-kilometre drive, a place of farmland, woodland and lakes set in the Burgundy countryside. If you're up for travelling a bit further, the archaeological site, museum and activities of Bibracte (57km from base) are a good option for a family day out.
