  • Well-appointed holiday park in the grounds of a French manor
  • Handy for Calais, Grand Site des Deux-Caps, theme parks and waterparks
  • Two playgrounds, nine-hole miniature golf course and volleyball
If ever you’ve fallen foul of a traffic jam or a delayed ferry or Eurotunnel train on your way through to Calais, you’ll know that an untimely site arrival can leave you somewhat scuppered. But not with Château de la Bien-Assise, a highly handy 20-minute drive from Calais. For its 24-hour barriers and flexible arrival times for booked guests mean that even if you rock up at this Guines site in the middle of the night, you’ll have a pitch to park up at, no probs. And while this Pas-de-Calais place may well be splendid for a stopover between England and France and wider Europe, it’s also excellently set up as a family holiday destination, with well-appointed facilities and a setting among the Caps et Marais d'Opale Natural Regional Park, a land filled with all sorts to see and do. If you arrive during daylight hours, head for a dip in the heated pool with retractable roof first, followed by a sun-drenched doze on the adjacent sun terrace if you've had a long journey here (or indeed if not). For times of higher energy, a nine-hole miniature golf course and three outdoor ping pong tables await (bats and balls can be bought at the shop), tennis courts are available for an extra charge, and a volleyball court and outdoor gym are to hand should you be feeling particularly croissant conscious. The park has two playgrounds – one for kids aged eight to 12, and another for smaller people aged three to seven. A bar, pool table, pinball machine and several arcade games are indoors.

Liked We had a lovely quiet and shaded pitch, the toilet block seemed fairly new. Great to have a pool onsite. Friendly young lady did our check in and showed us to pitch. Great location for Calais crossing.

Disliked The pool was chaotic, too many people and no staff (parents didn’t care) there were so many kids running and jumping into pool, play fighting and pushing each other in, jumping over heads of people in pool, huge queues to use the slide, and kids going down together/not waiting for the slide to clear before going down, felt like it needed oversight, I had 2 kids and I was worried they may get hurt.
Also toilet block is shared men and women which I didn’t like, stood washing hands with a man using the urinal next to you isn’t nice. Also just 3 showers, not enough at peak times, had to wait to use them when I was in a rush to leave at 10am.

Local attractions

Its setting between sea and the countryside is the big advantage of this site: the beach resorts of Wimereux and Wissant are both within half an hour’s drive, as is one of Europe’s largest aquariums at Boulogne-sur-Mer. If you’re one for setting yourself up for smashing vistas, then the Grand Site des Deux-Caps – a most spectacular protected coastal area comprising the Cap Blanc-Nez and Cap Gris-Nez and looking right out towards Dover’s white cliffs – is a short drive away. When kid-friendly day trips are calling, head to the family theme parks of Bagatelle or Dennlys for waterslide swooshing and miniature railway or monorail rides, or to the coastal waterpark of Aqualud for more than two kilometres of slides, tropical pools and wave machines, all easily within an hour’s drive.
