 We spent three nights here, on the way back up to the ferry. I wanted to see Honfleur, which didn't disappoint - every view was a picture. The town is a couple of miles down the hill, with parking down by the fishing harbour. In high season I'd get there early. We were there during D-day commemorations, and the town was heaving.
The site is well appointed, with a good restaurant/bar; pool (didn't use, so can't report); heated toilet block; sports facilities. There's a supermarket, with fuel and cash machine, right by the entrance. Staff are friendly enough. Entrance barriers use numberplate recognition, which I hadn't seen on a camping before.
The downside for us was the size - it's huge; and the pitches are organised on a regimented grid pattern extending over three or four fields. Even in June it was busy, with only a few pitches vacant. As a consequence, it had the feel of a Butlins about it. Everything was efficient, and a little soul-less too. But for €16 on ACSI, a decent place to lay your head. As others said, a stopover rather than destination.

We spent 4 very enjoyable nights here.
Another site that is very easy to find from the motorway.
Easy access to and around the site, the entrance barriers are a little tight so just take care.
Very simple check in 1 euro a night extra if you want 10a hook-up.
Total cost for our 4 nights was 55 euros using ACSI, we like the 'find a pitch/pay when you leave' approach.
Beautiful large pitches with hedging for privacy all around the site which seems massive, some have large trees for shade. Water, Waste water and rubbish bins are provided on every pitch.
There are two facility blocks very very clean and modern with very hot water in the showers, these are the push button type, plenty of room to get dried and changed in the cubicles too.
Bar and restaurant on site are both OK a snack bar opens at 7pm serving the usual frites and pizzas etc, not really a shop on site but an intermache is bang next door (petrol station too). There are also statics and wooden Chalets on site but these are kept to one area.
There is a nice pool area with slides for the kids and sunbathing lounges, a Gym and a boules area if that's your thing!.
Honfleur really is a beautiful place to visit we could spend days on end there plenty of restaurants and bars loads to see and do, its about a 3 mile walk from the site but we caught the bus back at 1 euro for 2 adults.
This site is one of the best we've stayed at in 3 years of touring France, very friendly English speaking staff and the bonus of free Wifi across the site.

Stayed here for 5 nights in May, very friendly staff, everything very clean, toilets etc. We were in a motorhome towing a car, pitch was very good size but some would be tight for caravan and car if you didn't have a motormover. Most pitches had water tap and drain and a rubish bin which they empty each day. Short drive to Honfleur or cycle but steep hill back up. Lots to see in the area, we didn't have great weather but it didn't put us off. One down side was the sauna 5 euro for half hour per person and you had to book in advance, so gave that a miss. Better pitches would be on the part where the 10amp electric is as there are fewer trees, our MH got covered in bird poo and tree bits. Very nice pool complex, didn't try the bar so no comment. Used ACSI discount card, very good value.

Stayed here for three nights on our way back from our Grand Tour de France!
The staff (all of them) couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful: they humoured me with my odd French, and remembered my name every time I visited Reception!
Extremely well organised site, great ablution facilities, and spacious pitches. Honfleur is lovely, especially the Market.
Sorry, but I can't find enough relevant words to make up the regulatory 400: a lifetime of concise communication doesn't help either!
Recommended.

Absolutely beautiful site and only 30 minutes from Le Havre but be very careful if you have a long outfit as for some reason there are concrete markers for the pitches on the corners and these will seriously knacker your van.
When I booked this, we were on Camping les Cypres and looking to move some where closer to the ferry and this site fitted the bill perfectly and I would go back in a second although there is a site closer to Honfleur on the far side of route de trouville through Honfleur.
The bar on site is probably the most expensive I've ever seen with 2 50cl pelforths and A coke (from a bottle)plus 1 Orangina coming to 17 euros.
He swimming pool is great with slides for the wee ones and the facilities such as showers are ok but could do with more and for 48 euros per night I would at least expect toilet roll in the cubicles.
Overall, I would say this site is a 3 not 4 star as published.
P. S. If its bad weather, go to CERZA zoo near Liseux. It's brilliant and costs £45 for 2 adults and 2 rug-rats.

A very large site, very expensive and somewhat lacking in certain areas.
The pitches are adequate in size, but narrow and poorly maintained access roads make it impossible to site a caravan without un-hitching it from the car. My caravan does not have a 'mover' fitted and so it was difficult for my wife and I to position our caravan. This having been achieved, the site does have lots of facilities, all of them basically adequate. However, the site feels 'tired' and is not very well kept.
The staff are mostly welcoming, but I'm afraid some were inefficient, rude, inconsistent and unhelpful.
The town of Honfleur is always worth a visit and is quite beautiful, full of character, with so many unique features. Deauville and Truville are also within easy reach and should be seen.
Of the six sites we visited during our three week stay in France, this site was our least favourite, not a venue I would re-visit I'm afraid.

Have just read all the reviews of this site and find them spot on. Worth using as a stop over or if your main reason for visiting is to see the beautiful Honflour.
We have two children 5 & 3 & they were more than happy with the playing parks, pool & crazy golf. The supermarket next door is handy, the on site bar is basic and expensive 3.50 Euros for a lemonade.
The toilet block was clean (no toilet roll provided). Most important to note is that the electricity supply is pole reversed so ensure you have an adaptor!
Also it is best reached taking exit 2 off the motorway then heading into the village from the west, this way you avoid driving through Honflour.
Lastly, please note that the site does not accept credit cards at all, cash only!

This site is not far from Honfleur, we stayed 4 nights en route to Mont St Michel.
Pitches are big, separated by hedges, and on grass. You can pick your own pitch. Toiletblock was good, swimming pool was lovely, the weather was good when we went and so we used it a few times. There is a restaurant on site but we didn't use it, so can't comment on that.
At the entrance to the site, there is a supermarket, so very convenient if you run out of something, it's only a few minute's walk.
The nearest town is Honfleur, which is lovely. It has a harbour, with lots of cafe's all around, plus shops. Further round from the harbour there is a lovely, big park, which is really nice for strolling round in.
We cycled from the site to Honfleur and back, also we cycled into and through the park. There is a bit of a hill coming out of Honfleur, but not too bad.
At the time of our stay the site accepted the ACSI card, it may still do now, you'd have to check that of course.
I'd recommend this site.

First camping trip abroad and wanted to test the water before exploring further. Stayed 9 nights which was too long, but 4 to 5 nights would have been worth it. Very much a French campsite, although also well populated by Belgian and Dutch.
The pitches were a good size and individually segregated by hedges. The kids, aged 3, 7 and 8, loved the pools. With the exception of the slide to the baby pool, adults were allowed on all water slides provided the safety guidelines were followed. The kids parks were well used as well in being well spread but near enough for the older kids to use as they wanted without supervision.
Creperie and bar were rather expensive although the euro conversion is rather poor this year so everything in France was expensive, but the evening entertainment was limited to certain nights so only went out 3 nights. Used the takeaway and the 3 cheese pizza was nice to say it was made with camembert. The supermarket is a couple of minutes walk away but the opening times are rather random so we used Lidl in Honfluer instead.
Some staff were more friendly than others -reception were little help, and the bar manager came across very anti-english, but the pool staff and the creperie staff were very friendly and helpful.
Overall though we were eventually stuck for things to do in the surrounding area as really for adults. Honleur was very nice, as was Trouville, but better for a stop over as opposed to a holiday.

Stayed at the site May bank holiday for a long weekend. Despite the fact it was out of season and nothing was open and the weather was poor we really enjoyed our stay here.
Honfleur was a lovely place that I would recommend to anyone.
The facilities on site were nice and clean (although it was a quiet time of year, so not many people using them).
I would love to stay at this site again and would recommend it.
