  • Scenic family-run campsite with mountain views in Savoy
  • In the centre of Challes-les-Eaux; Chambéry 15 minutes' drive
  • On-site restaurant in high season; guests' lounge and outdoor games
A warm Savoyard welcome awaits at this friendly campsite in Challes-les-Eaux, where the outgoing Coquelle family look forward to making you feel right at home in this gorgeous region of eastern France. Family Camping Le Savoy is a haven of peace right in the centre of Challes-les-Eaux, an attractive town just 15 minutes' drive from the bigger city of Chambéry. People have come to relax and kick back here for well over a century – as reflected by the genteel architecture on display at the casino and cinema. This well-maintained site has pleasantly green grounds and access to a range of helpful facilities, including an on-site restaurant (open in the high season), a guests' lounge where you can chat with fellow travellers and a collection of outdoor games. Dogs on leads are welcome, and handily there's a secure dog park on site just for them. Further amenities like toilets and showers (including disabled facilities), a laundry room and a kids' play area are also within a short walk of the pitches. Away from base, shops, restaurants, a cinema, a pharmacy and parks can be reached within a few minutes' walk.

Electric optional grass and earth pitch (comfort)

Liked: Lovely dog walks & cycle ways straight from the site to parks , green areas , town and airfield. Pitches were nice and level Sanitary facilities very clean Easy access to site

Disliked: Greeted by an unenthusiastic staff WiFi as not working’ . EHC electric connection box point all fixings rusty and top fell off exposing cables Sanitaries had no toilet seats, showers modern but keep everything high as floor gets swamped however it was very clean. Loud music till 23:30 The site seems appears to be mainly occupied by workers.

Electric optional grass and earth pitch (comfort)

Liked: Secluded and good-sized pitches screened from each other with high hedges.

Disliked: Our next door neighbours, who appeared to be long-term residents, came on to our pitch several times searching for their kitten. Their dog visited us to have a poo! We contemplated moving but were only there for one night. Would have complained if we'd booked for a while and the site had been full. Advertised shop and bar etc were closed. Limited facilities - a queue for the loo.

Local attractions

The city of Chambéry (15 minutes' drive; buses also available) was once the capital of Savoy, and there are plenty of grand buildings around the place that reflect its historic importance. The best-known landmark here is probably the Fontaine des Éléphants, an elaborate elephant statue from the 19th century, but it's also well worth taking the time to go off the tourist trail and explore the narrow old town alleys and genteel arcaded streets that surround the centre. The shimmering shores of Lac du Bourget (20 minutes) are about 15 kilometres away; tourist shuttle buses run between Chambéry city centre and its most popular beaches in the high season. After some swimming, watersports or perhaps a lakeside bike ride, you could carry on the sporty theme with an archery lesson (15 minutes) or (if you’ve got a head for heights) with some paragliding over the mountains of Savoy and Isère (25 minutes). Town and city day trips are easily arranged at Family Camping Le Savoy too – it's roughly 25 minutes to gorgeous Aix-les-Bains, 45 minutes to elegant Annecy and just over an hour's drive to Geneva or Lyon.
