Camping Les Premières Vignes

Once you’ve taken a wander along the trails that run through the vineyards on site, carry on up to the village, where there are a handful of other wineries and the Château de Savigny-les-Beaune, housing a collection of vintage cars, motorbikes and planes. If you’d rather ride your own bike, try out the downhill trails at the village bike park (10 minutes’ walk). Beaune (10 minutes’ drive) is another good source of wine-related days out, with a wine museum in town and numerous wine producers in the surrounding area – you can visit them under your own steam (perhaps pedalling along the bike paths that link them) or join an organised tour that will take you to several of the best. On the other side of town you can refresh yourselves with a swim at Beaune Côté Plage (20 minutes). To continue your foodie tour, learn about blackcurrants at Cassissium (20 minutes) or aim for the mustard-producing town of Dijon (40 minutes). If it’s time for something else entirely, explore the classic turrets of Château de Châteauneuf (20 minutes) or treat the kids to a day of log flumes and steam train rides at Parc des Combes (an hour).
