Camping les Ripettes is a rural 3 *campsite, surrounded by fields but only 4km from the picturesque town of Pont de Vaux. It is a small, friendly and pretty campsite, with lots of flowers and mature trees to offer shade in the summer. The pitches are extremely spacious so no one ever feels crowded here. Lots to do both on site and in the area. Cycle routes adjacent to the campsite.

    We just did an overnight stopover. Had the biggest pitch we have ever had! Amenities were great though I don't like unisex.

    Accommodation review

    We were put on an extra large pitch and it was great.

    Spacious pitch

    Very overhung with trees making it very dark, but it is the end of the season.

    What a beautiful campsite, a warm welcome and lovely spacious pitches. The hosts really made us feel like we were valued guests and gave us a lovely welcome even though we arrived after the normal time. The site was kept beautifully clean and the flower beds and pool area were really attractive. We visited nearby Tournus, a fascinating town with a lovely riverside restaurant for lunch. The local town had a bustling market

    Our camping pitch was huge, suitably sheltered and very tranquil. The bird song in the morning was so lovely to enjoy. Our favourite campsite on our trip around France!

    We only stopped for one night but were given a gravel pitch as as a storm was due and he didn’t want us to struggle on the grass. Shower block was spotless with plenty of hot water.

    Very welcoming family owned site. Great welcome and pitches in wonderful condition. Grass newly cut. Good choice of pitches. We used it as a stopover, but could easily spend a few days here. Pleasant bar and grill that are good value.

    Lovely small well maintained site. Only stayed for one night stopover and everything was straight forward. Ordering baguette & croissants once pitched up was easy to do as well.

    Accommodation review

    Good sized pitch for our 8.5m motorhome with water point and electricity close to pitch. Toilets and shower areas were nice and clean.

    Les Riptettes is a quiet camp site with large pitches and good facilities. It is a short drive from Pont de Vaux a town with all the normal shopping facitilities and an interesting river boat port. We use it for a couple of days en route to the South of France every year.

    Not really.

    Accommodation review

    Generously large pitch for a car and caravan. Most pitches are bordered by trees so there is plenty of shade and at least the illusion of privacy. The pitches are green, in stark contrast to the dead grass or earth you get as you go South to hotter climes.
