What customers say

This is a quiet campsite, praised for its peaceful atmosphere and friendly staff. Pitches are generally large and well-maintained, with some offering water taps. Facilities, including showers and toilets, are frequently described as clean, though some guests note they are basic or dated. Wi-Fi is available for a fee and mobile signal can be weak. Guests appreciate the proximity to local attractions and cycling routes. Some visitors found the shower system token-based and temperatures inconsistent.

Liked Camping à proximité du parc du marquenterre. Il possède se qu'il faut, verdure, terrain de jeux pour enfants et beaucoup de calme.

Disliked Les douches en supplément du tarif de la location, sans en être informé. Nous le découvrons à 21h, alors que nous n'avons pas de jetons pour une douche chaude.

Local attractions

Horse-mad families don’t need to stray very far from the pitches; Henson Equestrian Centre is right next to the campsite and offers pony trekking and riding lessons for all levels of experience. If you prefer to partake in watersports, head for the Baie de Somme’s best kitesurfing spots, which lie between Le Hourdel (35 minutes’ drive) and Cayeux-sur-Mer (40 minutes), at the northern end of Le Crotoy beach and at Fort-Mahon (both 15 minutes). If that’s all a bit too high-octane for you, don your sturdy boots and follow the Promenade des Crocs hiking trail north along the Baie de Somme coastline from Park Marquenterre (five minutes), itself an area of coastal dunes and marshland grazed by wild horses and rich in birdlife including herons, avocets and egrets. Popular local resorts to get to know include Le Touquet (45 minutes), where you can browse stylish shops, play hide-and-seek with the kids on the sand dunes or enjoy a romantic dinner à deux in a seafront restaurant. Springboard to boat cruises across the Baie de Somme, Le Crotoy (15 minutes) is a cute fishing village with lots of seafood cafés around the harbour.
