Les Ripettes

While the smallest pitches are big by any standards and the biggest are truly vast. The owners are keen to maintain the cosy and convivial atmosphere for which it is so loved by members. Great for bird spotters and the Ain region's cycle route is on the doorstep too.

Tranquil country setting where it is easy to relax outside a small, pretty town but within easy reach of the motorway. Simple facilities set amongst farmland off a quiet country lane.

Owned and run by Philippe & Marie de Tchervinoff.
