What customers say
Clean, modern facilities & a heated pool at this family campsite. Owners are praised for being helpful. Great for Normandy coast exploration, though Wi-Fi can be patchy & pitches are close.

Ci è piaciuto essere in mezzo…
Electric grass pitch
Liked Ci è piaciuto essere in mezzo alla natura, la semplicità e genuinità. Abbiamo apprezzato molto la pulizia dei bagni e la disponibilità, simpatia di Delphine. Ideale per chi cerca una sosta senza tante pretese e aspettative. Da migliorare la manutenzione del luogo. Gli spazi comuni richiedono di essere migliorati e più curati. Nel complesso buono.

From the manager: Dear Family,
Thank you for your feedback. We're glad to hear that you appreciated the natural setting, the simplicity of the place, and Delphine’s warm and friendly welcome. We're also very pleased to see you rated the cleanliness of the bathrooms a 10/10 — thank you!
That’s why we were a bit confused by your comment suggesting that the common areas need improvement. If you were referring to the sanitary facilities, please note that most of them are brand new, and we regularly receive positive feedback about both their condition and cleanliness. A small part of the facilities is indeed older, but still very clean and perfectly functional.
Unless your level of expectation is significantly higher than that of most of our guests, we believe the current setup strikes a good balance between comfort, simplicity, and authenticity.
Thank you again for staying with us — we hope to welcome you back in the future!
Warm regards,
Delphine & Laurent

Liked Fabulous!
This campsite is so well organised and run by the owners who keep all the facilities spotlessly clean. I would thoroughly recommend staying here. It’s also very conveniently situated for visiting Bayeux and the D Day landing beaches and memorials, which is a very moving experience.
We thoroughly recommend this wonderful campsite.!

Søde, rare, venlige og hjælpsomme værter.…
Electric grass pitch
Liked Søde, rare, venlige og hjælpsomme værter. Lånte os forlængerledning og stikdåse da vi ikke selv havde rette med.
Blev personligt vist rundt på pladsen og fik forevist vores plads samt parkering.
Pæne bade- og toiletforhold som var inkluderet i prisen. Mulighed for tøjvask.
Disliked Meget sumpet på vores plads grundet et regnvejr. Måtte nærmest sætte teltet helt ind i hækken.

From the manager: Dear Madam, Dear Sir,
Thank you very much for your kind words about our team and the facilities. We are truly sorry that your pitch was muddy during your stay. Unfortunately, we experienced heavy rain at that time and, as we were fully booked, we were unable to offer you another pitch. We understand that this made setting up your tent more difficult, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. We hope to welcome you again under better weather conditions.
Best regards.

Dear Guest,
Thank you very much for your kind words about our campsite. We are delighted that you appreciated the cleanliness of the facilities, the peaceful atmosphere, and the convenient location for bike rides to nearby beaches and attractions.
Regarding your comments:
Swimwear policy: We understand that our pool dress code may be surprising to some guests. Please note that we are not the only campsite in France with this regulation—swimming shorts are not permitted for hygiene reasons, in line with French public pool standards. This information is clearly indicated on our website and also in the welcome newsletter sent 7 days before arrival.
Wi-Fi: You're right that our Wi-Fi is limited. It is intended for light browsing and checking emails, not for streaming or bandwidth-heavy use. We are aware of this limitation and continue to look for ways to improve it within the technical constraints of our location.
Pets: As mentioned, pets are not allowed on our campsite in order to preserve the peace and safety of all our guests.
We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you again in the future.
Warm regards,
Delphine & Laurent

Had a 3night stay at Picard.…
Electric grass pitch
Liked Had a 3night stay at Picard. On arrival was greeted by the owner, who introduced us to all the facilities, these were good. A pool with pool side lounges. Baking deliveries arrive by 8.00am. Pitches a little on the cosy size. But more than adequate. Would we go again. ABSOLUTELY. Loved it.

From the manager: Dear Madam, Dear Sir,
Thank you so much for your lovely review — we're delighted you enjoyed your stay at Picard! Just a small clarification 😉: the bread delivery is actually at 9:00am, unless of course you were on English time — in which case, you're absolutely right! 😉 We’re so pleased to hear you'd come back. You're welcome anytime!
Warm regards,
