 We turned up in early October, the site was fairly empty.
The whole place was immaculate, there were no signs of it being out of season, the hardstanding pitches were all tidy and the grass well tended.
The facilities were clean and were cleaned regularly, despite there being only a few other motorhomes on the site.
There is a motorhome service point to get water and empty grey waste. Plenty of water taps on the site.
Free wifi is available in the TV room and worked well.
There are plenty of supermarkets around the site, an Aldi opposite and Carrefour a few minutes drive with a petrol station with easy access. A 15 minute walk into the town centre with plenty to see and do.
This was our first visit to this municipal site but will return again.

Superb site. 5 hours drive out of Dunkirk. Got there about sixish so they put us in the rear part of the site. Spotless field, huge pitches all designated with bushes and shrubs. All facilities well kept, didn't risk the squat toilets but there are 'proper' toilets for you. Electric points are fitted with British three pin outlets and the continental two pin types so no problems at all. Lovely walks into town about 20 mins either by road or along the riverbank. Do not miss the market in Caen on Sundays. Hundreds of stalls. Hypermarket just across the road to the right 5 mins. Lovely cathedral town. Normandy beaches very close by. Will go back again with no reservations whatsoever. Great site at about 15pounds per night. Moved on to St Malo next.

I picked this site as we wished to visit Bayeux but I wasn't expecting too much as it is a municipal site. However, I was pleasantly surprised. We had a good hardstanding pitch with hook up (no reverse polarity) and the site is very well kept with lots of trees, hedges and flowers. Aside from the occasional bit of traffic noise, you would never know you were only 10 mins walk into Bayeux centre. In fact we stayed an extra night. It was cheap at 15 Euros a night.
The showers were clean although the high roof area was a bit spidery. I just shut my eyes! The urinals are indeed outside but there is an english style gents loo and several ladies loos so, provided you remembered to take loo paper with you and looked the other way when walking past the urinals, it was fine.
I also used the laundry facilities which were operated by tokens from reception (4Euros wash 2Euros dry). The dryer refused to work but reception got it sorted.
I had tried to book by email but got no reply. In the event, there was loads of room and the young French receptionist on arrival was very pleasant and tolerant of my bad French. Some of the other reception staff were not quite so friendly and it does help if you have at least a smattering of French when dealing with this site.
There was a TV room and volleyball pitch and campers have free use of the adjacent indoor municipal pool, which we didn't use but looked great.
The tapestry is definitely worth a visit and Bayeux Cathedral is awesome. Bayeux Old Town itself is very picturesque with many restaurants, shops etc and pleasant to wander around for a few hours. There are a number of large supermarkets close to campsite which is just off the ring road round Bayeux.
I liked this site and would definitely use it again.

We stayed here on our way home from a cycle tour. We were given a large pitch with plenty of shade. Reception was good and they spoke English when our French failed us.
Toilet blocks are very clean with plenty of hot water, bread at 8:30 and a vendor of a different cuisine on site each evening. We had traditional galette and Asian, Fridays was due to be fish and chips.
Close to town and shops we'd stay at this campsite again.

Stayed here at end of June for 3 nights.
Excellent site for a Municipal site.
We arrived off the overnight ferry and drove straight to the site, finding the location very easily. The site receptionist was expecting us after prebooking (Note, they only staff the office from mid April and don't reply to emails prior to that) and allowed us to pitch up at 0830hrs rather than wait until the usual after 2pm check in time.
The site was well manicured with decent grass pitches, flowers and shrubs and decent tree shade if you wanted it. (Three gardeners were there every morning tending to the grounds)
There were two shower blocks.
These consisted of a decent washing up/prep area, two electric dryers (tokens from reception) some clothes wash sinks separate mens/womens toilets and shower/sink areas.
Note, gents toilets: they have 5 toilets with only one being a WC and the other four being hole in the floor/continental. Urinals are outside and have no screen. Nobody seemed to care and as long as you knew, if it bothered you, you'd walk the other way around.
Toilets/basins & showers were all clean and showers were hot and free.
The reception was quite proactive advising you of daily bread delivery van each morning and pizza van on some evenings.
There was a tv & games room but we didn't use this.
The site itself is located only 5mins cycle ride from Bayeux centre and 10mins cycle ride from the British War Cemetry.
Both well worth a visit.
A big Carefour Hypermarket and petrol station is located opposite and down the road.
This site is worth visiting and I'd consider staying here again - it ticked all the right boxes.

We did not book in advance but there was plenty of spaces free. Staff have limited English but we were able to make ourselves understood with our pidgin French. The facilities are cleaned regularly but the gentleman's toilets were something of a learning curve for my husband. The urinals are outside ( something that seems quite common in France) and the cubicles sported the old fashioned hole in the floor toilet arrangement. Please remember to take toilet roll with you when you use the loos as none is provided. The walk along the river into the town is lovely and it is well worth spending a minute or two trying to spot the tiny fish that congregate under the footbridges.
All the local town attractions are worth a visit, with the exception of the cafe opposite the entrance to the tapestry location. The coffee was lukewarm and the woman tried to overcharge us.
We visited the British cemetary and the nearby museum. It is worth noting that there is a car park next to the museum in which even a large motorhome can be parked with ease.

Stayed two nights at this lovely municipal site on ring road at Bayeux. Fairly large site but very large serviced pitch for our motorhome complete with bedding plants!
WC & shower facilities a bit outdated but clean. Boules pitches and play areas. Wide range of tents, caravans and motorhomes. Bread van comes every morning
Around 20 minutes walk into the centre of Bayeux. Lovely town witj plenty to see: the cathedral, the Tapestry ( visit late afternoon to avoid the queues, the Museum du Normandie, the market and lots of restaurants. Free Son & Lumiere show is brilliant
We booked in advance but you should note that there will not be a response to booking enquiries until the site opens in April

Excellent site with a few idiosyncrasies! We tried to book but an Email in English was ignored. Apparently you can book but not sure what you need to do to be accepted. It would help if you speak French! We arrived off the overnight ferry from Portsmouth at Caen so could have been there by 07:30, but we stopped and had breakfast and arrived at 10:30. We were told to come back at Noon which we did and there was a queue of 5 waiting to check in and wouldn't start dealing with anyone untill 12:02. In the meantime, I had walked around site and chosen a pitch which we were given which was great, but were told we had to be away by a certain time as it was booked. Later in the week a caravan arrived at an adjoining pitch at 10:30 am, so it is possible to book and get in early, if you know how! The pitch we were going to be allocated to was very open on a corner at one of the roundabouts so glad we had chosen our pitch.
Toilets are fine as long as you look for the ones that are not hole in the floor, but no toilet paper (and nowhere to keep your own off the floor). No washhand basins near the toilets, you need to go round the other side of the block to the shower area to wash your hands (and no soap or driers there!). Showers are fine and all is kept clean twice a day!
Bread and croissants van comes round at 08:30 - great!
Pitches are small with hedges in between and no good for large units (twin axles not allowed). Excellent for our Eriba! 7 on site that week!
Short walk or cycle into Bayeaux, which is a lovely old town, especially if you go down other side of river! Excellent Aldi Supermarket across the road - Wine and beer very good!
You can see why the continentals love small caravans - going round the site in the evening, it was BBQ's everywhere and everyone sitting around outside drinking wine and eating!
Our first visit to France with caravan and hopefully not our last and if this site is anything to go by, excellent! We loved it!

We stayed here for a week whilst touring the D-Day beaches. Arrived without pre-booking and signed in at the reception, plenty of EHC pitches to choose from, (would think it is very busy high season) pitches are semi-enclosed by hedges and trees which offer some privacy. Slightly sloping the pitches drained well even after heavy rain.
There are two sanitation blocks, both where clean and tidy with English loos and plenty of hot water. Rubbish is near showers and has to be sorted for recycling, which seems to be the norm now on French camp sites.
Bread man comes around at 8-30am every morning so no staying in bed late. A large supermarket just across the road will supply all your needs (we had to buy a new air bed and there was a good selection)
Bayeux is a love little town 5minutes walk away and the tapestry is well worth seeing. The D-Day sites along with the museums are all within a 15mins drive. Buy a Normandy pass at 1€ as it gives a discount at most museums
Overall a nice site out of high season.

Stayed here whilst on road trip of the D-Day landing beaches in our land rover and rooftent, not booked in any way, we just turned up in the afternoon and got put straight on, no fuss.
We intended just to stay the one night, as we were travelling along the coast but stayed for two, wished we'd stayed there the full fortnight instead, really relaxing and easy to socialize with other continental travellers,
Its amazing how many people walk past the wagon having never seen a tent on the roof before including a dutch camping magazine that took our pictures.
Site well recommended especially as a base for holiday.
