Le Bloemstraete

Wonderful welcome from Nicolas as we arrived in our motor home. He showed us to our pitch and told me about the local area. Following his advice we had a great stay. The site is clean and peaceful with great facilities and a large pitch.

What a gem of a campsite Beautiful and relaxed , chickens and goats and lovly fresh eggs Huge pitches Lovly owners Nicholas was ace , got us a bag of chips after a stressful journey we gave him a laugh trying to park up on pitch :)))))

This is a very peaceful site with thoughtful hosts and in easy reach of the Clairmarais marshes and forest. You can cycle from the site (ask for the cycle routes and maps) on a number of trails that lead through the forest and past its five ponds. There is also a nice pathway along the Neufossé Canal which heads away from the marshes and towards Arques. Saint-Omer is worth a visit on market day and also has a "Brocante" with a myriad of objects to search through - if you enjoy seeking out antiques and second hand goods. The beaches of Wissant and Wimereux are just under an hour away. Beautiful and sandy with a good selection of eateries close by. The campsite offers breakfast ordering and delivery direct to your pitch with a lovely fresh selection of traditional French and Flemish baked delights. There is a Pétanque area for brushing up on your boules skills and a play area for smaller children. For lunches or evening meals, you will find a good broad selection of estaminets in the local area - just be aware they're not always open and it is worth checking before heading out. Local supermarkets are in easy striking distance with Lidl, Carrefour and Leclerc to choose from. All in all, a nice relaxing site with good links to a number of key cities.

Stayed for four nights, the family is so friendly could not have been more helpful, bakery delivered to your door every morning, lovely village and village shop very close nearby, we be visiting again next year, within easy reach of Lille, Ypres and Dunkirk.
