What customers say
This campsite offers a peaceful, traditional French vibe with roomy, private pitches. It's close to Albert town and perfect for exploring the Somme battlefields. Facilities are clean but a bit dated. Staff are friendly. Some tree branches and occasional noise were noted.

A good place to stay for Albert
Powered grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Easy access to the lovely town of Albert and the war memorials close by. Site has rustic charm, water on the pitches, grey waste emptying and laundry all were fine.
Disliked Overgrown in areas, we couldnt get our MoHo onto the top area as the tree branches were too low, so we had to stay in the bottom area near the showers. the Site really needs some gardening TLC.
