The Camping de Barolles is a campsite in France situated half way between Paris and Marseille. The site is located in Saint Genis Laval in the Rhône (69), to the south-west of Lyon (7 km), close to the A7 motorway (approximately 5 km). This location is perfect for exploring Lyon and the surrounding region. The peaceful leafy site offers easy access to the capital of the Gauls as well as many other interesting destinations (Beaujolais, the Monts d'Or, Pérouges, la Bresse, etc.) The centre of Lyon is just 20 minutes away by public transport. The Camping des Barolles is a family business created in 1960. Over the years, three generations of the family have managed the site, the philosophy of which is regional authenticity, conviviality and respect for the environment. Today we have a new impetus: maintaining the tradition while at the same time resolutely ensuring that the site moves with the times (sustainable development, welcome, communication, services, etc.). The Camping des Barolles warmly welcomes you all year round, whether you are a tourist, worker, or simply looking for long or short-term supplementary accommodation. Whatever your needs, we can provide you with an appropriate and cost-effective solution for living - and getting a good night's sleep - in Lyon. Our priority is respect for your well being and peace during your stay with us, in simple and accessible accommodation that represents a real alternative to other types of accommodation in Lyon. The Camping de Barolles is a real melting pot, a mixture of culture and experience that often marks the start of a whole new relationship between you and Lyon.

    The establishment

    I styed in a tent, the internet was reall good, which I liked, but it is also quite remote from everything. Also, the staff barely speeks english, but it was cheap and basic, so nothing to really complain about.

    Accommodation review

    I stayed in a tent, the space for the tents is nicely located at the back/top of the site, but there was no shade right from the beginning of the day, only in the afternoon it got shady.

    Type of stay : Family with child(ren)

    Accommodation : Pitch : caravan / camping-car / roof tent

    Period of stay : From 16/10/2024 to 18/10/2024

    The establishment

    The camping spot is very tidy, easy to get in and out, the facilities aged, but clean and useable. The staff is very friendly and excessively helpful. They provided great insights on what do for and see and how to get there. Getting into town took only about 40 minutes with public transport, which was very cheap, no worries about parking, etc.

    At the office and location none.
