Awful! Firstly, the camp images on trip advisor or Caravan Club www are not reality. The pitches are overgrown, crammed in, dirty and unorganised. They haven't been mowed in weeks; some are dustbowls. Glamping cabins seems to take priority here. On arrival we waited for 40 minutes whilst the camp... Show more

We booked this site because we had an early ferry and the location is perfect for the ferry terminal. As we arrived we could see there was a lot of building work taking place. Things were fraught in reception and a very heated discussion took place with the previous person.... Show more

Our experience of the site was extremely good. The check in, although later than planned due to the ferry being delayed in Portsmouth by 30 minutes, was very efficient and we were able to find the pitch without a concern as they gave us a site map. The site facilities... Show more

Only stopped one night, but seriously considered leaving and staying in a hotel. When we arrived there were a large group of young men congregating and lying around near the entrance - which seemed odd. The staff spoke little English and did not seem to understand any French spoken by... Show more

Stayed here over night to catch the Ferry the following day. Reception was closed on arrival at 1pm and didn't open til 2pm. Three people then started checking in the large queue that had built up. Surely they could have staggered the lunch times and kept Reception open. Pitch was... Show more

We stayed here before catching the 8:30am ferry and it was fine. The bar sold pizzas and burgers which were really good, and we pitched with our car/caravan still hooked up allowing for a quick getaaway. The only downside was the 10s of immigrants outside the perimiter which was slightly worrying... Show more

We choose this site due to it location to visit the Normandy beach landings on our European trip. This was to be our last European site from many. We checked the site before booking and noted the clubs statement about the migrants camping nearby but didn’t realise it was outside... Show more

Stayed 5 nights for the Normandy 75 commemorations and it was a perfect base for that. The site itself seems very well managed and clean and the owners and staff most helpful and pleasant. Really can't fault it. The small group of migrants lurking near the main road were giving... Show more

This was our third stay here for before & after the ferry. It is so convenient for the ferry. The book in after getting off the 9:15pm ferry was friendly, amazingly quick & very efficient. Our pitch was fine. A lot of the pitches here appear to be small, but... Show more
