We used this site as a 1 night stopover before catching the shuttle back to England. Very easy to find from the motorway following the directions from the site's website and very quick and straightforward to the Channel Tunnel Terminal (10 mins max.). Also excellent value for money - 12 euros 50 per night, including electricity.
We were a little dubious about using this site as it has a large proportion of statics and seasonal pitches, which we tend to avoid, but we were pleasantly surprised and found it to be a very quiet, convenient and friendly site and will happily use it again for a short stay.
The touring pitches are mainly near the gate away from the statics/permanent pitches and vary in size from medium to large - even on one of the smaller pitches we had room for our 7.4m caravan and car, though would have been struggling to add an awning.
The office is open at set times through the day - morning from 8.15, then 1.30pm to 2.15pm and for an hour or so in the evening. The man in the office was very friendly and helpful and when we had booked in told us to choose our own pitch. There were pitches marked as reserved and had we arrived out of office hours we would have pitched ourselves on one of these, thanks to information in previous reviews (we had booked in advance).
You need to buy tokens to use the shower at 1 euro each but the 2 toilet blocks were clean and modern and well maintained.
Bread is available in the mornings (needs to be ordered the previous day, as on most sites) and the site is within a 10 minute drive of Cité Europe and a large Auchun supermarket, with the petrol station on the other side of the road, on the road to Calais. There is also a bread shop and other small shops in the village.
Well worth a visit is the coast road between Calais and Peuplingues (or beyond) which gives absolutely stunning views of the Channel. This is the region of the 2 capes - the Cap du Nez Blanc and the Cap du Nez Gris (the Cape of the White Nose and the Cape of the Grey Nose) with part of a long distance footpath between the two. We stumbled across the viewpoint at the Cap du Nez Blanc with free car parking and cliff top trails and a memorial to the Dover Patrol (sailors from WW2). We did not realise the many attractions of this area - like most people, I suspect, we looked upon Calais simply as the place to start and end our holiday but now feel the area is worth a closer look.

We found the site fairly easily and were using it as a pit stop on our way south. No one in reception on arrival, but a resident Dutchman told us to park where where we wished and we did. Early May was very wet and windy and the shower/toilet block was a bit cold and drafty. The owner pitched about 1900 but was very helpful and friendly. At Euro 11.50 it was OK. You need a token 1 euro for the showers. Warm enough but a bit cramped. We also used this site on our return leg and and used our previous experience to inform arrivals of the reception procedure which was most appreciated by a Belgian family who were struggling to find somewhere to pitch on a very popular holiday weekend. Would use again as it is convenient to Calais.

We used this site as an overnight stop it was easy to find The gate as open when we arrived at 7.30pm it was quite and we did not see anyone.
The toilets and showers were clean. And as said the reception was not open so phoned owners and asked if we would put the monies in the box. E would use the site again, but only for an overnight stop. The site is close to the ferry and euro tunnel

Ideal for the Calais ferry, this site is only minutes from the centre of Calais and even closer to Cite Europe. It's a fairly small site with a lot of static caravans but the available pitches are of a reasonable size and all appear to have electric hookup. The loos/showers were of a good standard and clean.
On arrival it was a case of find a pitch and set up camp, the office was open for 20 minutes in the evening. Charges for tent and 3 adults were only 13 Euros; bargain. They had a very few basic commodities in the office. If you miss office opening then drop payment through the letterbox.
Nearest shopping is in the village (Peuplingues) just down the road, but there is a large hypermarket (and fuel) at Coquelles just 5 minutes drive.
During the night it blew a Force 9 gale with rain but the site was so sheltered we hardly noticed the wind.
The ratings I've given are a bit low but, for a one or two night stay, the site is fine and we will certainly use it again.

This site is an ideal stopover for the Calais ferry. The site is largely made over for statics, but has an area for the overnighters. For a small site it has more than adequate toilet facilities, never the need to wait. In fact it has two toilet blocks! Each pitch has hookups. Surrounding area is quiet with only the small village of Peuplingues with shopping facilities. Two miles away is Coquelles which has a large shopping estate. The gate is always open so late arrivals can find a spot. If the gate is closed, then the area outside, for overnighters, can use the toilet block. The reception is only open for short periods during the morning and evening so paying is left to the honesty of the individual. We have happily used it for many years.
