  • Peaceful family-run site within easy reach of Saint-Omer
  • Two kilometres from the huge 1,200-hectare forest of Clairmarais
  • Huge private plots plus playground surrounded by big grassy area
Since taking over in June 2014, owners Julie and Nicolas have been cultivating a friendly familial vibe at Camping Le Bloemstraete, in Renescure, halfway between Hazebrouck and St Omer, and within easy reach of Lille and Calais. Set across two hectares, plots are huge, grassy and surrounded by big hedges to keep things private yet nicely neighbourly. There's a playground surrounded by a large grassy area to kick a ball around in before sitting down to lunch at one of the picnic benches; a pétanque pitch is on site too. For barbecue food shopping you can head into the centre of the village where there's a supermarket and a butcher, and then pick up your croissants, pain au chocolat and a baguette or two at the local bakery. For when you feel you've had enough of toiling over hot charcoals, try out the village's gastro restaurant or brasserie and finish off with a few vin rouge at one of the local bars. If you fancy an off-site adventure, ask Julie and Nicolas how to get to their favourite trails and nature spots and they'll give you plenty of information about where you can go from the site on hikes and bike rides around the area.

What customers say

Top spot, peaceful with a friendly welcome. Spacious, private pitches, clean facilities. Owners super helpful with local tips and bakery runs. Shower pressure might be a bit low for some, but it's a cracker of a place for a quick stop or longer.

Power optional grass site

Liked What a lovely hidden gem in the middle of the French countryside! The site was absolutely beautiful, with spotless facilities and friendly hosts who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, even though we were only staying for one night. We were offered fresh bread service and homemade pizza (delivered right to our pitch!). And let’s just say, the presence of two friendly goats and a parrot sanctuary was the cherry on top. This site goes on out "favourites" list to visit again.

Liked Heel fijn welkomst, super aardige en vrolijke host. Gras plekken zijn erg ruim en aan 3 zijden afgeschermd met een heg. We kregen opties te zien en mochten zelf kiezen. Schone en ruime toiletten. En er werd pizza gebakken! Heel fijn verbleven :)

Power optional grass site

Liked Easy to find and just off the main road. Very welcoming reception, the owners spoke far better English than our French! You can even order some fresh bread for the next morning which they delivered to your pitch which was a lovely touch. The owner saw us to our pitch which was a very good size and flat so we didn’t need our levelling blocks. Small hedges between pitches added to privacy. Toilet and washing up facilities were spotless and central to the site. There is a kids play area too with swings and a slide. Lovely and quiet of an evening with no road noise. This was our last stopover before returning to Calais and was only 40mins down the road. So ideal. Will be returning again. Thank you

Disliked Nothing to dislike.

Local attractions

The huge 1,200-hectare forest of Clairmarais lies less than two kilometres away from Camping Le Bloemstraete, for scenic hikes and bike rides among its old oak trees while you keep a beady eye out for owls and grey herons. You can also trek around a trail that winds past the pond of Harchelles (built by monks) to the pilgrimage site of the Clairmarais grotto, which lies among the woodland. Then, climb aboard a bacôve (flat-bottomed marsh boat through the maze of waterways that make up the UNESCO-listed Audomarois marsh, set around the historic cultural centre of Saint-Omer. Also around this area is the Platier d'Oye nature reserve, the first feeding area for migrants birds en route to their winter homes and so an excellent spot for birdwatchers. Other good sightseeing options in the area include the World War II bunker complex of La Coupole, and the historic town of Cassel with fab historical spots such as an 18th-century hilltop wooden windmill, the cobblestoned Grand'Place, a Flemish Gothic-style church, a museum and lots of photogenic 16th-century Flemish buildings.
