What customers say
This well-located site offers spacious, private spots & a friendly vibe, steps from Albert's center. Guests love the helpful staff, peaceful setting, & WWI site access. Facilities are clean but some find them dated and lacking toilet paper. Great for exploring the Somme.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews




















Fine for an overnight stay
Powered grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Plots. Reasonable size
Disliked Toilet facilities need updating- they are reasonably clean but old fashioned and basic. The tap on the basin in the toilet area didn’t work. At least two of the toilet seats were broken
The office wasn’t open- it would have helped if there had been a notice on it about where the lady could be found

Nice place
Powered grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Nice location, good services. Even for only one night, our staying there was so peaceful and quiet.
Easy to access it, located into a pitoresque area, we would have liked to have stayed longer.
Also, they have many means for entertainment (like table tennis, pool table)
Disliked The smell the second day was horrific. Of course, is not the site's fault, but literarelly, you really needed to run out of there.
