 Positives
Check in very quick and efficient
Pitch a good size, very sloping, levelling blocks required
Sanitary facilities excellent, very clean and plentiful hot water.
There are two pools, one heated ( manic & standing room only) one unheated and much larger, thus far quieter.
Extensive children's play area, deserted during the day.
Negatives
No shop, but there is a supermarket near by
Gangs of twenty somethings wandering around the site, lingering by cars and outfits.
Footballs flying ( one off our neighbours car)
Childrens play area becomes a teenage hang out and a scream zone until 2345 the evening we were there.
In short a busy site, but too noisy & not keen on the gangs of youths, such a shame as everything else is great

We have stopped at this site many times over the years, once for a week, but mainly for overnight stops on the way home.
The site is beautiful, and the facilities fairly good.
But on the way home from Spain when we stopped there in August, It appears that the usually good on-site restaurant has dropped its usually good standards.
I do not want to sit in the conservatory with all the other Brits, I want to eat by the log fire near the bar - but I wasn't allowed to, even though I had booked in to the restaurant.
I also objected to finding a long hair in my scallops, and I didn't even get an apology!
'Manners maketh the man' so I was taught, it appears that this site thinks differently.
I hope that this glitch was a one-off

We have stayed at the very attractive Gandspette four times, and appreciate it more on each occasion. The amenities are excellent, the pitches large and grassy and the service welcoming, straightforward and efficient. It is relatively expensive and the restaurant food is very ordinary but as a pitstop on the journey from Aberystwyth to the south of France it is ideal. I've given a high rating to location to reflect its convenience, not as an endorsement of any nearby attractions. Recommended.

This is the perfect site for a quick stopover after crossing the Channel or when you want to catch an early ferry home.
We've been using it for at least 10 years and its been gradually developed into a site that is suitable if you just want a taste of France. The owners are very welcoming and while the food in the restaurant and at the take-away isn't cheap, it's very good (I recommend the civet du porc and the house red).
The pools are pleasant enough when the weather is hot and it's a safe site for kids with the entrance at the end of a long driveway. There's also plenty of things to do with an outdoor gym, bouncy castle, playground, boule and a basketball court/five-a-side pitch. There are some dark woods but it's fenced off from the fields beyond and you can't walk far off the beaten track.
There are two toilet blocks. The one through the woods is newer but both both are always clean with plenty of facilities - we'll be back again this year for another visit.

Very pleasant sometimes busy. Great for overnight stops but also good place to stay for a few days to unwind. Plenty to do in the area. Some pitches can be a bit on the tight side for a large unit, but STAFF very helpful and will accommodate if possible Julian is especially helpful. Facilities are always clean and tidy. In short this is a pleasant place to stay.

Like most people, we stop here on the way to or from the Dunkirk ferry
English is spoken, wifi is available at a price, no shop but a few salad veggies are usually for sale outside reception.
The baker, who used to drive round the site giving a gentle toot as he approached your area is a distant memory. The van is now to be found near reception between 8 & 9 am. Who wants to trail up there at that time of day? The restaurant provides good food & there is a takeaway service & bar.
Other facilities are the pool, children's play area & outdoor gym, but we have never used any of them.
We have yet to find a level pitch, & some are quite small which makes for difficult manoeuvres.
The sanitaires were ok, but this year we have noticed broken or even missing toilet seats & the standard of cleanliness seems to have dropped

Had 2 nights here, first on way out after getting off the Dunkirk Ferry and again on our way back. We have been using this site for the last 4 years and it is a very convenient site with good pitches and excellent facilities, the power showers are to die for. Carrefour with petrol just down the road so good for a quick fill up, don't go with your caravan hitched to your car as it is almost impossible to get in and out of the station.
We usually go in the site restaurant for our 'last meal' and that has been the only disappointment for us as the Menu has not changed in the past 4 years. Despite this we will be there again in 6 weeks time.

Just returned from a week long break over half term.
Nice site with reasonable size pitches - although none were level so you need your blocks.
The toilet block I have mixed opinions about - the showers and sinks were fine - but the toilets were in a unisex area at the back of the block - with NO lighting at all - not good at night :(.
The outdoor pool (small one) was most definitely heated - the large one hadn't opened so can't comment on that one.
There is NO shop on site and the 'bakery' they advertise is a man in a van for 1 hour a day - be warned.
The local area is fairly dull with a visit to the Blokhaus and the Coupole being the few local attractions.
That being said this site is a very transitory one with many people stopping over on the way north or south - we had 4 different neighbours in a week.
Mixed views of the site - not from a quality point of view - but the location just didn't do it for for me.

In our top 5 of French campsites, ideal for night halt from either Calais or Dunkirk. Easy access friendly and obliging staff. The facilities are first class and the restaurant is good and value for money. Our grandchildren loved the pool and the bouncy castle. We always have 2 days on the way into France and at least 2 days on the way back. We take our dog and there is a very good vet next to the supermarket in Watten. Just a shame the site closes so early as it would be ideal for a late autumn break.

Stayed here twice (4 nights) in the same holiday. Beautiful site with very friendly staff, facilities clean and well kept. Pool was very inviting although one of the pools was a little green on the bottom. Fantastic site worth more than just a stopover. Local supermarket about 1 mile away as there is no shop on site. Baker calls but stopped coming towards the end of our holiday, all the Bread looks burnt but tastes wonderful.

Stayed for one overnight on the way home from the Alps before getting ferry the next day. Large site, clean tidy entrance. Efficient welcome, given choice of large pitches. Flat, well drained. Excellent facilities, kept clean.
Good for the kids, swimming pools, slides, play areas, games rooms, etc.
Big bar and restaurant, very pleasant, although we only had a drink there.
Quite noisy generally with a lot of teenagers around, congregating near the loos; still kids will be kids.
Biggest drawback was noise at night. Nearby we had two Dutch units pretty loud when we arrived. At 11:45pm more came and then the party started. Eventually got them to shut up at 2:00am. No sign of site management to sort it out.
Convenient, but if you want quiet don't go here!

Spent just two nights here and wanted to stay longer! very pleasant welcome and very nice even pitches shady too. Beautiful view of the chateau from most of the sight and pleasant to walk around the grounds in and out of the trees 'lapin spotting'
Fantastic shower and toilet facilities good outside gym equipment if that interests you also tennis courts several pin pong tables and a good sized outdoor cold pool and a shallower heated one ideal for the little ones.
Cant say much about surrounding areas as I was in the pool most of the time! but there was a supermarket within walking distance.
One thing to watch out for is the hidden entrance to the site it really is 100m away start indicating.

We stayed here for 6 night this August. A Great site with spacious pitches, great facilities for the kids and 2 pools the heated on was always busy but the other one was quieter.
There is a bar, restaurant, & takeaway on site that are reasonable priced. The reception staff all speak English and were very help full.
I would definitely recommend this site for a stop over or a longer stay.
There is fresh bread delivered everyday via a local baker that drives round the site and a super market less than 1 mile away.

Just returned, the facilities at this site are first class as good as any Caravan Club site in the UK and better than some.
The cost per night (circa £30. 00 for 2 adults and 1 child) was fair if you consider the facilities listed below and the general high standard of the site.
A Caravan Club site in the UK would cost the same without the extra facilities.
The site in general and the pools (1 heated)never felt too busy even though the site was near capacity. This is due to the spacious pitches and wooded nature of the site.
The shower blocks were spotless and of a very high standard, lots of hot water and free with UK style toilets.
The restaurant and take away food was reasonably priced and the food was of a good standard.
The staff were pleasant and helpful and spoke very good English.
There is a bouncy castle, well equipped children's play area, tennis court, multiple table tennis tables, basket ball / 5 a side football court.
There is a good sized supermarket about 3/4 mile, with St Omer about 6 miles away which has some great restaurants and the typical French hyper markets.
The gokarts at Planet Kart in St Omer are well worth a visit.
The WW2 V2 rocket site 'Blokhaus'is a 10min walk from the site and just incredible.
The aquarium at Boulogne Sur Mere is also worth a visit and the 45 min drive, don't take the motorway, save the toll and enjoy a pretty drive which is just as quick.
You will always be at the mercy of the behaviour of other campers i. E. Noise late at night. We did not experience any late night noise and would highly recommend this site.

We used this site for a one-night stopover at each end of our recent trip to the continent. It is certainly handy for the ports of Calais and Dunkerque.
We wanted a nice site with good clean facilities, and a pool to look forward to after a day in the saddle. This site ticks all the boxes, although we have paid less at other sites that also do.
Whilst relaxing in a chair before pitching I was asked by site staff to compress my outfit a little, as I had inadvertently used two (unmarked) pitches. I was therefore actually allocated an area approx 6m x 6m, which for my family of 5 and given the price we had paid, I would say is unreasonable.
One other thing we needed was a good night's sleep. This we did not get, on either occasion, due to the late night noise of other campers, and no site staff monitoring or controlling this.
We may return to this site as it has some appeal, but I will not use it again for a stopover.
