Anonymous Electric grass tent pitch
Liked We liked the location of the camp site in the Somme, we liked the trees and hedges bordering the pitches, and the facilities on the pitch (electricity and water). There was a nice ambiance and it was a calm campsite when we arrived.
Emily was very helpful in the booking process.
Disliked What we found inconvenient was the noise at night from the trains on the railway line and vehicles on the main road not far from where we were pitched on the campsite. It disturbed our sleep.
If pitched further from the road/rail we probably would have slept better.
The campsite is convenient location for our tour.

Great site with good facilities
Electric grass tent pitch
Liked Great location as only a few hours from Calais and close to both Amiens and Arras which are lovely towns.
Private pitches with shade (which was essential when we visited in July)
Toilet and shower facilities good
Disliked No signage to indicate what rubbish went where and no obvious signage for recycling.

Good value, good location
Electric grass tent pitch
Liked Well set out pitch with trees and hedges for privacy. Close to the centre, about 10 minutes walk. They sell beer and refreshments on site but hours are restricted
Disliked It seems to be a theme in France, the toilets are appalling. Not just here but most campsites looks like they have been vandalised, toilet seats broken and dirty. This site had one toilet roll dispenser

What customers say
This campsite offers a great location, within easy walking distance of Albert and the Somme battlefields. Pitches are generally spacious, private, and well-maintained with trees for shade and water/electricity. Staff are consistently praised for being friendly and helpful, with many returning visitors. While many facilities are clean and functional, some guests noted them as dated or in need of refurbishment. Noise from nearby roads and trains was occasionally mentioned.
