Lovely, quiet campsite with traditional French layout & welcoming vibe. Spacious, private pitches with good shade. Clean facilities with hot showers. Great location, short walk to Albert town & WW1 sites. Snack bar & fresh bread available. Some facilities could use an update.

Good value, good location
Powered grass tent site
Liked Well set out pitch with trees and hedges for privacy. Close to the centre, about 10 minutes walk. They sell beer and refreshments on site but hours are restricted
Disliked It seems to be a theme in France, the toilets are appalling. Not just here but most campsites looks like they have been vandalised, toilet seats broken and dirty. This site had one toilet roll dispenser
