Very handy for city break in Bruges. close to the Old Town and the train station both a short walk or cycle away. The original pitches as you come into the Aire are a bit small but if you head around to the extension there is more space. yes itβs expensive but so is parking in most places these days but it is convenient.

Our first experience of a Camping Car park and if this is the standard likely to be our last. The site was overgrown, the pitches were deeply rutted and unusable which was confirmed by the hand written signs saying not to park on the The electric bollards on some sites had fallen over and the only occupant was a battered up van with a mattress in the back. we left within 10 minutes using no facilities but still got charged the 5 hr rate

After Tardingen (Drainage Works) & Wissant (as usual) full looked for other options and had heard about this new site at Sangatte. Huge Parking facilities on hard-standing slightly downhill but not too bad. Currently no facilities but good walks in the area and excellent seafood Bistro 2 minutes walk away.

Nice friendly campsite overlooking the English Channel. Stayed one night before first time in Motorhome to Europe. Narrow access road but if you arrive and leave during suggested times should be ok.

Handy stopover to or from the tunnel. Easy 5 minute walk into town and great market on a Friday along with an authentic French Christmas market. Good outlook over the marina and only 3.5 per night low season. Service facilities signposted a few minutes away by the Gendarmerie.

Great location just outside Ypres with easy access to the town via a lit path and access to plenty of cycle routes to the historic places and Memorials. Nice outlook across the fields with water and emptying facilities at the entrance.

Great for a transit stop when travelling across Belgium or France. Some road noise as you would expect in a town. Nice walk into town with a good market and plenty of boulangeries.
Sitecode: 11094
Handy for the tunnel and close to the village and the beach. Dump facilities but no water or electrics. Frequently full and you will be woken at 6am by the bus starting up and probably also somebody driving around looking for space in the middle of the night.

Perfect stop by the Mosel, we stayed at Christmas and went to the underground wine festivals in the caves. Come early as it was full by early afternoon between Christmas and New Year. Easy walk or cycle along the river into town. 12 euro per night

Our favourite βlocalβ campsite. Being about 1hr 15 from the channel tunnel this is our favourite local French campsite. Well layed out with different pitch options and several wash blocks. A lot of investment over the last couple of years including a new indoor pool, brasserie and shop. Very family friendly and great cycling around the Bain De Somme nearby.

Great Camping and Caravan Club Site in the heart of East Sussex. Perfect for exploring Ashdown Forest the home of Winnie the Pooh and easy access to Royal Tunbridge Wells and 5e South Coast with train links into London. Quiet site, good bathrooms and perfect position for enjoying the fireworks on Bonfire Night (Nov 5).
