  • Quiet dog-friendly site next to Lake Ardres
  • A 20-minute drive from Calais and 25 minutes from beaches
  • Within walking distance of restaurants and shops; pétanque on site
The Opal Coast… a name that brings to mind white cliffs, windswept beaches and beach huts of all colours. Then there’s Lake Ardres… that spot has shot to popularity too, mostly because of its gentle waters surrounded by the Brêmes countryside. Tucked to one side of the lake in its lush green surrounds is Camping Le Courtil Rose. The lakeside site has its own set of attractions: a quiet and dog-friendly being one of the key ones. There’s a pétanque pitch and lots of practical facilities too (showers, toilets and launderette included). Access to the lake is one of the most exciting parts. Rent an electric bike and take a lap of the lakeshore or pack yourself up a picnic and pick a pretty spot for a relaxed day by the water. There are restaurants (both alongside the lake and not) within walking distance of the site, as well as shops. When you’re ready to trade that fresh water for the salty kind, Calais beach on the Opal Coast is but a 25-minute drive away from the site. With the ships gliding to and from shore, and a line of beach huts, it’s a special spot. Also along the coast, about 25 minutes’ drive away is Plage de Sangatte, a popular patch for windsurfing, kitesurfing, fishing, sand yachting and horse riding.

Electric optional gravel touring pitch

Liked: Die Begrüßung war sehr freundlich. Haben 2 Stellplätze erhalten da sehr leerer Campingplatz. Gute Anbindung zur Fähre.

Disliked: Es gab kein Toilettenpapier, keine Seife zum Hände waschen oder eine Abtrockenmöglichkeit. Der gemischte Dusch-Toilettenbereich war allgemein nicht angenehm. Alles war sehr spartanisch.

Electric optional gravel touring pitch

Liked: Very welcoming and friendly owner. Toilet and washing up blocks have recently been refurbished. Showers were lovely and warm, but are coin-operated at 1 euro for 8 minutes (which is plenty of time for two people to shower). This was the perfect first night stop for us after arriving from channel crossing.

Local attractions

Set off for Calais (20 minutes’ drive), a port town lined with white cliffs. The City of Lace and Fashion is one of its famed museums, telling the story of the town's craft-making past in a 19th-century lace factory. That Opal Coast is calling too… walks-wise, the chalk cliffs of Cap Blanc-Nez (35 minutes) with views over the English channel must surely take the priority. For seaside cities, however, Boulogne-sur-Mer (40 minutes) is first call. The city walls, built in the 13th century, are a clue to the interesting history. The Norman castle has ancient Egyptian and Greek artefacts and an art gallery. If you get the chance, you might want to check out Wimereux (40 minutes), near Boulogne-sur-Mer. A sandy beach backed by a sea wall and promenade, and lined with 19th-century villas, makes for a splendid beach day.
