Why stay here ...

Being on one of the main routes to the south, this site is popular for stopovers, but definitely merits a longer stay to explore the area. It’s small and well-presented and is suited best to those looking for a quiet stay, although it gets very busy during the street theatre festival in July.

Facilities are limited but kept very clean and a small shop stocks the essentials. The helpful owner speaks good English, and guests receive a warm welcome upon arrival.

Chalon-sur-Saône is a short stroll along the river and has a lovely old town with plenty of restaurants and bars. Wine lovers will enjoy visits to Beaune and Mâcon, as well as some of the surrounding villages. There’s also a golf course within 1km of the site for those who fancy a round during their stay.

Good for overnight but facilities have deteriorated

Le Pont de Bourgogne
July 2022 We've used this site on a number of occasions during the last 10 years. It offers relatively easy access from the autoroute and is close enough to the City to offer sight seeing opportunities (Chalon is beautiful) and access to good restaurants The general appearance and upkeep of the site has deteriorated in recent years and the toilet and shower facilities are not as well maintained and clean as they were The staff are very friendly and helpful Our visit this time was during the Festival in Chalon and so the site was very busy. There were a lot of tents/motor homes alongside the river close to the site and we suspect the occupants of these did try to use the site facilities

We chose this site due to its location for our 3 day stay. The first thing to make clear is that this is very much a transit site, with hoards of vans arriving after 4pm and departing the next morning by 1000hrs. This in no way spoiled our enjoyment of the site. Arrival was no problem despite the Main Street being closed for a market. We had a river front pitch which was large enough for van, sun canopy and car. The facilities smelled terrible and could do with a revamp, after entering them once we then used the vans facilities. Great walks along the river into Chalon sur Saone, 20 to 30 minutes or so. Some good walks direct from the site. Supermarket and fuel about 5 minute drive away. If we were overnighting I would use this site again.

stop over

Le Pont de Bourgogne
We stopped over on our way and returning from the southern alps. The pitches were easily accessible and allowed an early start the following day. Toilet facilities were spotless and the bar served delicious pizza. There was a small amount of town driving after leaving the motorway but nothing too stressful.

Lovely site

Le Pont de Bourgogne
Arrived a bit late in the dark but Warden/owner came out and waived us through Barrier saying go see him in the morning to sort booking in. Parked in one of the first few hedge separated bays rather than the main area. This suited us. The facilities building was good. Warm (we travelled in April) clean and functional. Only thing I didn't see was a washing Machine area but it may have been there. Used the bar but was a bit lonely as it was the start of the season. The site was very close to the village and we had a lovely Sunday walk around the local produce market. We went along the river to the left until we came across the retail park with everything you could need to re stock. Would very happily return to this camp site.

Good Overnight Stop

Le Pont de Bourgogne
Stayed here overnight on our way back home. The site is easy to find and the facilities were clean and functional. There is some road noise at the back of the site, but not really enough to keep you awake. There is a basic shop and a restaurant on site. Facilities for children were lacking, but as an overnight stop this site is good.
