Campsite Riva Bella

Making its home in the pleasant port town of Ouistreham, and within touching distance of the Orne Canal, 4* Campsite Riva Bella sets the scene for blissful outdoor escapes in northern France. All the delights of Calvados and the gorgeous Côte Fleurie are within easy reach from this excellent resort in Normandy.

Ensuring that campers can enjoy swimming and splashing in all weathers, the pool of Riva Bella is both heated and covered, and lies close to the entrance of the resort. In the event that it rains, holidaymakers can still enjoy a dip in the pool, and when the sun does shine, we’d recommend a spot of swimming on the lovely beach located in the north of Ouistreham.

Riva Bella is a great choice for al fresco breaks with the kids, as it boasts a fun outdoor play park. The area around the campsite is green and natural, and is best explored by hiring bikes from the reception. One of the best routes to take is along the canal. As the sun sets, holidaymakers can toast marshmallows on the campfire while listening to fascinating tales.

Dining options at the camping include tapas style meals at the onsite snack- bar, where families can share mouth-watering dishes and refreshing drinks while reminiscing over their latest outings or planning tomorrow’s adventures. A mini market, bread stand, library, BBQ rental service and board game borrowing facility are also at the disposal of guests on a stay at Riva Bella.

The campsite is well-laid out in tree-lined avenues that feature spacious emplacements decorated with plenty of greenery and grassy areas. Set within these private and peaceful emplacements, our modern mobile homes provide the ideal home away from home on your camping trip to Calvados.
