  • Quiet dog-friendly site with lots of greenery in a small village
  • A 50-minute drive from Lac de Madine; 55 minutes from Nancy
  • Barbecues are allowed on site; nearby hiking and cycling trails
If you like the quiet life, there’s a very good chance that you’re going to like Camping Des Saturnins. The well-maintained site has a generous helping of trees (and therefore, birds), including old apple trees, a pear tree and a walnut tree. The quiet orchard also has several gorgeous views of fields, meadows and hills, and checking them out at sunrise and sunset is highly advisable. Just as highly advisable is exploring the nearby hiking and cycling trails in the area, as well as the forests (birdwatching is a dream on the forest walks in the Forêt Domaniale de la Reine, which is 40 minutes’ drive away from the site). Camping Des Saturnins is on the outskirts of a small village named Méligny-le-Grand, and this part of north-eastern France is indeed peaceful. While the village may be small, guests can still create big plans, like hiking, biking, visiting farms or visiting boating lakes and grand castles within 50 minutes’ drive of the site. The facilities at Camping Des Saturnins cover the necessities, and include toilets and showers. Barbecues are also allowed, so if you want to source some tasty ingredients for the big event, seek out the shops within 15 minutes’ drive of the site. Restaurants are five minutes’ drive away should you want someone else to handle the cooking part for you. Some particularly pretty restaurants are in Ligny-en-Barrois (15 minutes’ drive), a town on the canal that stretches between the rivers Rhine and Marne. The big city of Nancy is also a 55-minute drive away.

Power optional grass and earth site

Liked: De gastvrijheid en vriendelijkheid van de campingeigenaren. Geen luxe camping maar alles wat je nodig hebt is er, behalve misschien een afwasplaats. Maar als we daarom gevraagd zouden hebben denk ik dat ze de afwas zelfs voor ons gedaan hadden.

Power optional grass and earth site

Liked: L’accueil, en arrivant sur le site nous avons été accueilli par le fils de la maison, très agréable qui a pris le temps de nous expliquer l’activité de nous faire visiter les sanitaires très propres le tout par un temps de déluge. Puis le lendemain matin ce fut le propriétaire qui nous ventait sa région avec de très bons conseils pour la découvrir. Nous sommes repartis avec des produits de la ferme, confits, foie gras et autres spécialités de la maison.

Disliked: Le mauvais temps, pluie et neige . Mais il n’y pouvait rien……

Susan T. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Power optional grass and earth site

Liked: There are no defined pitches, you can pitch up wherever you fancy on a wide strip of grass adjoining a field, with plentiful shade from apple and walnut trees. I was expecting a bumpy field with a dilapidated shed containing a dubious shower and dodgy toilet. However, the unisex shower and toilet are in a large, modern agricultural building and are spotlessly clean. This is a working farm, so you may have to go and look for the owner. We were made to feel very welcome, with the owner lending us a guide to the area, and ensuring we knew where to find the facilities. The view from the site is lovely.

Disliked: There was nothing we disliked. However, if you are very sensitive to noise be aware that this is a working farm. My husband was woken by the sound of chickens (no bad thing and it didn’t bother him) but I slept through it. Bring earplugs rather than miss out on a treat of a site.

Liked: Great value site on a working farm/processing plant. Friendly welcome, super clean toilet and shower. Have paid much more for much less.

Disliked: A bit noisy at times due to it being an active facility.

Local attractions

A day in the city or by the lake? For the former, Lac de Madine (50 minutes’ drive) is a dream for swimming, fishing and boating. And for the latter… set your sights on Nancy (55 minutes), a city with baroque and art nouveau buildings, an impressive square with rococo fountains and a medieval old town. While you’re on the matter of historic sites, check out Hattonchatel Castle (50 minutes), an 11th-century castle with stunning countryside views. Fort de Fermont (an hour and 45 minutes) has a World War I bunker. Museums are also a big attraction around this area. There are a number of them in Toul (half an hour), which can be paired with vineyard visits in the surrounding countryside. Musée du Verre (two hours and 20 minutes) in Saint-Louis-lès-Bitche is a museum about glass and crystal. If you’re in the mood for a safari of sorts, the wildlife park Parc animalier de Sainte-Croix (an hour and 40 minutes) has over 100 species of animals.
