Nicknamed the "Nice of the East" because of its mild climate, Vesoul benefits from excellent facilities, including a recently built hospital and a train station with a journey time to Paris of 3.5 hours. It also offers a good range of easily accessible cultural facilities including a theatre, museum and cinemas, and a series of free concerts on summer evenings. The town enjoys a green setting in the countryside and is just 10 minutes from a vast lake offering water sports and walking activities. Adjoining the lake are the Ludolac water park and a brand new campsite run by the Seasanova group.
