Positiv Quiet, easy access to tunnel, friendly, residents of mobiles were so helpful, there was water, toilets, showers, which we don’t need to use, and our pitch was big, owner was very helpful, nothing fancy but just what we wanted. We didn’t have any noise from bar but it was nearing end of season, big carrefour up the road.

Positiv Nothing - was unable to access site.

Negativ Booked this site at last minute due to scheduling changes, arrived at just after advised arrival time, site in darkness, restaurant closed, barrier down, no answer on phone number given (and still no acknowledgment/call back 2 days later) - left stranded with young children late at night. Would not recommend.

Positiv Just a night stop for us on our way back to the uk. Easy check in. We arrived and no one was there but I rang the warden and he said explained everything. We just had to pop to the bar later in the evening to pay.
The toilets were basic but clean. The showers were a case of “don’t judge a book by it cover”. We’ve been touring France and Spain for the last 6 weeks and these were the hottest and most powerful showers we had experienced the whole time. No push button. No 6 second blasts. Just a pure warm and powerful shower!
The grass pitch we had was quite spacious but some were quite small.

Negativ Nothing.

Positiv This is a small site conveniently placed for Calais and the Channel Tunnel, which is about 25 minutes away. The host was very friendly and the site allowed late check-ins which was helpful for us after a long day’s drive. The facilities are functional if dated. The showers were hot.

Negativ The toilets could have been cleaned and there was no toilet paper.
