The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Quiet rural stopover 1 hour from Calais, perfect for a night's rest. 8 gravel pitches (4 level, 4 sloped). Toilets and showers (€3 tokens), free hot water at sink, electricity, black and grey water disposal. Picnic tables and barbecues with countryside views. Tricky road access (GPS unreliable). €10/night plus token-based services. Management issues: frequent token machine failures, inconsistent toilet cleanliness.
Highlights

- Open views over the countryside
- Hot water is free at the sink for dishwashing

Good to know
- Road access difficult to find (unreliable GPS, entrance via a small path)
- Token-operated machine regularly out of order (no water, electricity, or shower)
- Unpredictable cleanliness of the restrooms
- Pay-as-you-go fees steep (shower €3, electricity €18/24h)
- No on-site manager for payments or assistance
Motorhome access : Narrow entrance and not clearly marked (follow signs for 'Aire de camping-car du Patis'). Steep, blind curve at the entrance. Possible to maneuver but access is notoriously difficult and dangerous. Gravel terrain with manageable moderate slopes.
