  • 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.

What customers say

This is a friendly, quiet site primarily for statics, with a few touring pitches. Visitors frequently praise the helpful, English-speaking owner and good value for money. Pitches are spacious with water and electric hook-up. Facilities are described as basic but clean, with ongoing renovations. Its proximity to Calais and nearby lakes is a major draw. Some note tricky access routes and dated facilities.

Adam S.

Electric optional gravel and hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Friendly reception, gated and locked with code! Off the main road, pitch sizes are very good. Nice facilities, people who seem to have a plot/home there are nice and friendly. Offers a burger van in the evening and even gives you a menu for local takeaway! Great walking distance from mini fair, town, bar drinks. Liked this site overall

Disliked It was a bit noisy in the evening with burger van but our pitch was right at the front for early exit so can’t complain! Have to pay for showers but we didn’t use them here.

Louise N.

Electric optional gravel and hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Location near lake, 3 min bike ride or short walk, shops and cafes near by too, huge pitches, bbqs allowed very good shower and toilet block, water and electric on pitch, pitch is gravel but we still got our awning and blankets out, owner is so welcoming and accommodating provides you with take out menus which we ended up asking him to order for us as I tried but I don’t speak French. Ping pong table little play area, lovely spot along a canal, a lot of seasonal residents there but they too are so welcoming, we stayed for five nights as we had been wild camping for a while and needed to chill out and get some washing done, washing fascilities spot on too.

Disliked Having to come home

Carlie M.

Electric optional gravel and hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Really good last minute find for our final night before boarding the ferry within 20mins drive of Calais.

Helpful owner, who even suggested we walked over the canal for lovely ice-cream and we had the best last day at eurovac where we went on the zip lines through the forest. Thanks for the recommendation.

Disliked You have to pay €1 for showers for 8 minutes. We hadn't realised and were all out of change so just make sure you have some.

Nicola W.

Electric optional gravel and hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Ideal for what we needed which was a night stay close to Calais. We had a walk out and found a lovely lake with activities - kids loved getting out on a pedalo.

Disliked Lack of handwashing in the toilets, although we found this at most places in France. There is also a very tight corner as you approach the site. Managed it fine, just be careful.

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.
