Ardres, Pas-de-Calais, France
Electric optional gravel and hardstanding pitch
Liked Sorry Jean Luc for only 8 stars.
This is listed as a 2 star site and I can only put that down to the limited facilities. That being said what this site does really well is what is does have. Immaculately kept large toilet, washing and as shower facilities. The shower is on a timer paid for with a one euro token but these facilities are better than some 5 star sites we've been on. Theres also a proper disabled/accessible shower and loo. A rarity these days. Well done and thanks.
The site as a whole is right next to the town which to be honest is pretty but doesn't have much. Theres a supermarket 15 minutes walk away though. It's also right next to Ardres lake which is pretty, has some lovely walks and cafes and places to eat at sensible prices.
On site it's compact with a very friendly owner who really does go out of his way to help. Small play area for the kids. Washing facilities. No cafe or shop sort of understandable but a small shop for your croissants and baguettes would be nice, as well as for some basics. Would save having to walk too far or drive.
So in our view it's a lovely, friendly, quiet compact site that deserves more like 4 stars, not the 2 listed.
Thanks

Fakenham, Norfolk, England
Electric hardstanding and grass pitch
Liked Gem of a location to visit Sandringham. Well kept small site with few motorhome, tent and caravan pitches. Decent toilets and showers. Everything on a small scale but hey what more do you need. Friendly bar and terrace. Good food and reasonable prices. Would definitely come back.
Disliked Had planned to top up with breakfast the following morning but sadly due to the numbers the owner stopped breakfasts before our visit.

From the manager: so sorry but we haven't done breakfast for two years, lack of demand.
