What customers say

This site is praised for its excellent location, convenient for the Eurotunnel and ferry crossings. Visitors highlight the friendly staff, clean and well-maintained facilities, and the good on-site bar and restaurant. Pitches are generally described as spacious and private. While most reviews are overwhelmingly positive, a few minor points such as the chemical toilet disposal system and shower timers have been mentioned. It's a popular choice for stopovers and short stays.

Robert B.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked Beautiful campsite that is absolutely perfect either if your going home on early channel crossing or arriving. Just be aware if you have any early crossing like we did the barrier won't be open till 6am,we had to leave at 5am cause of dog control so they have a couple of spaces outside the barrier to enable you to do this.
Very friendly people,we booked into their excellent restaurant for evening meal,great selection of food,drinks etc.
Pitches are big and clean,bring a long power cord because the hookups are quite spaced out.
We are definitely coming back here without a shadow of a doubt to explore that part of France.
channel tunnel is only 30 mins away on an easy to get to road.
Top marks to staff who are friendly and always happy,and to the chef who looked extremely busy.
I walked up to the loos at night and watched them all tidying up great team there.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked This campsite had a lovely atmosphere. Our pitch was a good size and close to the amenities which were clean and the showers were nice and hot. We only stayed one night en route back to Calais but we were very happy with our stay. We would definitely stay here again.

Local attractions

The site is on the edge of the Caps et Marais d'Opale Natural Regional Park, a popular local spot for walks and bike rides; more of the same, as well as wildlife watching in scenic surrounds, is at the Canche Bay Nature Reserve to the park's south. The medieval town of Ardres a few minutes' drive away is a must-see in this part of Pas-de-Calais – and a popular destination for holidaymakers on weekend breaks from Britain. Carve out time for the ancient and award-winning Thursday morning market, the bird sanctuary and the garden of the Maison de la Nature at the very least… and make it a mission to find the town bakery and patisserie too. From Ardres, follow the canal (starting from Calais harbour) along to Saint-Omer and the nearby World War II bunker Blockhaus of Éperlecques and its museum, or further along to Lille, an hour and 25 minutes' drive from the site.
