This campsite serves as a convenient stopover for travelers using the Eurotunnel or Calais ferries, located just 20 to 30 minutes away. It offers a peaceful and quiet atmosphere, ideal for a one-night stay or a short break. The owner, Tony, is consistently praised for being exceptionally friendly, helpful, and welcoming, often greeting guests personally and providing local recommendations. Pitches are large, level, and mostly gravel or hardstanding, with electric hookups and water available on many pitches. Access roads can be narrow, and larger vehicles are advised to use alternative routes to avoid a low bridge. The site features a mix of touring pitches and static caravans, with some statics appearing a bit tired but most well-kept. Sanitary facilities are basic and dated, with showers requiring a €1 coin for about 8 minutes of hot water; cleanliness reports vary, with some guests noting issues like mold or lack of soap and toilet paper. Wi-Fi is only available near reception and is weak or non-existent elsewhere. Mobile phone signal is patchy. A beautiful lake and scenic canals are within walking distance, providing pleasant walks and a lakeside restaurant. Local shops, bakeries, and restaurants are also reachable via a short walk. The campsite is dog-friendly and offers good walking opportunities. There is a small play area and an occasional burger van. The price is reasonable, offering good value for money, especially for transit stays. However, the facilities are not suitable for extended holidays, and the dated shower and toilet blocks may disappoint some guests. Overall, it is a friendly, clean base for a short stopover, with a warm welcome and a convenient location near the Channel crossings.
