An end of season stay, early October. We intended to stay for 2 nights but changed our mind to 1 night.
We found site tired and a bit run down. Centre of our pitch had no grass - just mud that walked into van. Grass around edges had not been cut for some time. Pitches steep slope sideways, needs levellers.
Cafe / bar closed at lunchtime. Area outside resembled a junk yard with long grass and bits of old furniture.
Touring pitches are high up the site, a steep walk from reception of 5+minutes dependant on mobility. Walk back down to facilities block is also quite steep.
The only views were of the caravan next door.
No shop and no bread order service. Nearest shop a 5-10 minute drive away.
Saving grace the beautiful beach, another steep walk down and back but very worth it for the miles of white sand.
At E25 per night with ACSI we were surprised at the poor quality, not for us so we moved on. via mobile
Spent another couple of nights here again this year. Not much change to report since last year, except that the coffee shack opposite the gates has gone, replaced with a Tourist Info Centre truck.
We also observed that there is now a free shuttle bus runs to the beach in July and August, stopping at the campsite gate and running via the holiday residences next door.
As the weather was good, we had a couple of nights here before setting off south, and their ACSI season starts earlier than most, the last week in August.
The campsite is much the same, it was quite busy in the holidays. Pool, bar, etc, but we didn't use them.
A pleasant surprise, just outside the gates, down the hill, a new snack bar/ice cream place. That too was very busy with families, and of course, doesn't belong to the campsite.
Also in the car park opposite the gates is a coffee kiosk and a beach store.
Large, well maintained campsite very close to an excellent beach. The site is located up a hillside although most pitches are fairly level and have a sea view.
Great swimming pool, which is part indoor/part outdoor, and has lots of features to keep children amused plus generous poolside space with sunbeds for sunbathing.
There's an on-site bar and places to eat nearby but the general store, boulangerie, etc. Are a long walk/5 minutes drive away in the centre of Equihen Plage village.
The site attracts visitors from across northern Europe. Some English spoken by site staff although they prefer you to speak French.
The snack bar outside the entrance has been demolished, and replaced by a pizza machine.
We tried to get a pitch again on our way home, but it was full, and packed with some children's' holiday activity, so be aware of this in the summer holidays.
First of all, don't consider staying here unless you are either fairly fit for walking up and down the hills, or are prepared to use the car to get about.
We stayed here twice this holiday, firstly on the way south, as they start their late summer ACSI discount a bit earlier than others. We liked it so much that we stayed again on the way back north.
The previous review describes the site well, except there only appears to be 1 sanitary block now, at the lower edge of the touring area which is still at the top end of the site. The block is in 2 buildings with a covered area in between.
All facilities are single sex, and immaculately clean. You are given a plastic card to operate the shower, but there is no extra charge for this. They kept my ACSI card until the morning we left, when we handed back the shower cards and paid for the pitch.
There's a swimming pool with slides next door to reception, but as access was restricted due to Covid we didn't try it.
What impressed us was the cleanliness of the whole area, both on the site, and down to the beach, the car parks, and the beach which was cleaned early every morning. If you don't need to stay at the campsite, pay a visit to the beach. (Dogs not allowed on the beach in the summer).
There's a free car park next to it, at the bottom of the hill, and another opposite the campsite gates. Both of these have a 2. 1m barrier. There's another small car park further up the road which has no height restriction.
There's no shop on site, the bread shop is a good 10 min walk away, over the hill. But the snack bar is still there at the campsite gates, and the cafe down at the beach.
We loved it here, it is now on our favourites list.
Quite an extensive site, contoured up the sides of a valley running up from the seafront. Blocks of tent and caravan pitches seem to be interspersed among blocks of statics and seasonal pitches, but the main blocks for tent pitches are well towards the top of the site, so walking uphill is unavoidable. There are three toilet/shower blocks spread throughout the site so the walk to those is not long.
No shop on the site (reception sell frozen water bottles) but the local boulangerie van drives all round the site between about 8 and 9 am. A cafe on the beach and a burger/chip/kebab van just outside the entrance, otherwise only one restaurant in the village or a posher brasserie a couple of miles along the beach in the next village.
Toilets, showers, washing up plentiful, scrupulously clean, with hot water, but functional rather than luxuriously equipped.
Pitches marked out by hedges, some taller than others. Being on a hillside next to the sea, the higher up pitches are exposed when it is windy. The taller hedges would provide some protection, but on the one night when it was quite windy, we felt it expedient to take down our extension porch. The other nights were all fine.
Quite a lot of people appeared to use it as a stopping point to/from Calais, as evidenced by unpacking only the tent and living out of the car. But the beach (several miles long, and shallowly shelving so enormously wide at low tide) is literally 5 minutes walk down the hill from the campsite entrance. By UK standards the beach is half empty (and dog free), and by UK standards the campsite is relatively quiet (and cheap). There's not a lot of nightlife in the village which no doubt contributes to a slightly more sedate clientele at the campsite. So if you regard quietness as an asset and walking up and down a few hills is a positive rather than a negative, it's a pretty ideal location for a beach holiday.
I think I would agree with Pipi on their review. The site has good sanitary facilities and though there were mention of shower charges, we were not charged. The showers are not available at night but I can not see this as a problem. We
Paid the day before we left, 18euros. The reception and staff were friendly. Yes this is a steep site but the pitches are well proportioned and there is a Motorhome service point.
This is an ideal site for a stopover before catching a ferry. The beaches, however, on this north coast of France are superb, together with some excellent coast walks and uncrowded, as long as you avoid August; this coast is very popular with the French.
Do not expect nightlife, it is a village. Boulogne is well worth a visit, the old town is a delight.
Stayed for 7 nights. No booking required. Very convenient for Beach. (about 10 mins downhill).
This is a very steep site. It is about 5 mins downhill to reception from camping area, but is about a 10 min walk uphill back! This also includes the washing machine facilities.
Toilet and shower block beside pitches. Clean. Worth noting that you have to pay for your showers. You are given a shower card on arrival worth 50euro. Each shower costs approx 1. 30 so when you leave you pay for what you used. You cannot control the temperature of the showers so if you are the only shower user it can be extremely hot!
We needed wifi access during our stay, however there was none available on site or in the town, we had to drive to McDonalds in Outreau (6km) to get wifi access.
Local town has few or no attractions. We saw only one restaurant open and the boulangerie only opened a couple of hours each day. We cycled/walked along the beach 2km to Hardelot Plage, the next town down the coast. Lots more activity there!
Quiet site, ideal location to Calais (About 45mins drive). Boulogne sur Mer worth a visit. Outreau is the nearest LeClerc handy for campervan owners!
Its a great site for beach lovers, the beach is only 10 min walk (steep hill) and is very beautiful, however no night life or bars/restaurants in the town.
Only stayed one night on way to the ferry home. Pitch was 500 metres from the reception at the top of the hill. Surrounded by high hedges. Site was packed. Didn't see any GB plates. Very lively site which respectfully quietens down after dark.
Toilet facilities a mixture, with showers closed between 2200 and 0800, but clean and tidy. Only operational laundry facilities are at reception which were found to be averagely priced. A 10 to 15 minute walk, all uphill, to the pitch from here. Childrens play area halfway to reception.
The beach is another 500 metres downhill from reception, but definitely worth the hike. Glorious sandy beach with a small cafe at its entry. A nice touch was the outdoor shower for washing off the sand.
Spent most of our only day at the beach with no time to check out local shops etc.
Reception will only accept payment on the leaving day, which negates any early start to an onward journey that may be required.
