Hi all, like it says on the tin really... Looking for a nice place worth staying half way between Interlaken and Euro Disney?
Going to be staying 3 nights and have a 2 year old with the attention span of a ... 2year old
On the map, Dijon looks like a reasonable stop over but not sure how the littlun will find museums and medieval architecture
Thanks in advance
Paul

Hello,
Beaune... south of Dijon, but easy access to and from motorways
Very good camping municipale with shady spots, resto and lots of play space.
No booking, try to be there by 4 pm.
Nearby is the impressive 'Canal du centre' and super wine chateaux.
The town is nice too, with shady squares
Hope this helps.
Cordialement,

Fabulous campsite just outside Interlaken - Camping du Lac at Iseltwald. On the way back, we stopped at Lac du der Chantecoq near St Dizier. There is a campsite but also plenty of wild camping there too. Lovely beach which your 2 year old would love, and a shallow lake to paddle/swim in. Have a good trip!

Is that the Municipal Les Cent Vignes or Camping Les Premiers Pres?
Merci

Hello,
Les Cent Vignes.
Sort of on the edge of centre of town, so only a few minutes walk into the very attractive centre with shady squares. Centre of the Cote d'or wine region.
Nice campsite with big hedges between pitches. Good resto with terrace.
Cordialement,

We liked Grindelwald too, who wouldn't

Perhaps this ...

Is why we like Interlaken though ?
