Hello Pugwash. Lyon is a bit of a desert on the MHF campsite database . There may be some municipals around, but it's a big urban area, so may be difficult. You could try the Michelin sites book (mine is 2005 so a bit out of date), or look on www.campingcar-infos.com for aires.

Hi, there is/was a large campsite beside the motorway heading south. It's quite a while since we stayed there, but I seem to remember just heading for the well signed, big Centre Commercial, north of Lyon. Very convenient for Lyon, not sure about public transport though.
Lyon itself is a great city and well worth a visit, cheers, Paul.

We stayed at "Indigo Lyon" last week - www.camping-indigo.com. Not bad, just off J33 on the A6, decent facs, short walk to a hypermarket, and most important, a bus stop right outside the gate.
It was very quiet so no need to reserve a pitch, very helpful staff who speak excellent English. Only problem is that you need to take the A6 through the centre of Lyon, it is a motorway (no pay) but can get very busy at the wrong times.
Good Luck, Roger

Thanks for that info. It looks like that's our best option. Good to know there's a bus stop at the gate. Providing we arrive outside of the rush hour I guess we'll be OK.
Thanks again,
Kind Regards
Pugwash.

Hi Roger I notice you haven't put it on the campsite database, do you mind if I enter it? or do you intend to put it in, as has been said we do have a dearth of sites close to Lyon, so I am sure it will be of interest to many.

Please go ahead and add it to the database. We are having a few days with our family in Weymouth before heading North. Will then hopefully add the few (about 30!) that we have used during tha last 6 months and will add a review to the ones already in the database.
Sorry for the delay - it's Xmas party day today, starting at 13:00!!!!!
