Campeggio Domaine de Drancourt *****

we went to this site in late August, busy at first but quietened down quite a lot and quite quickly. pitches are a good size but be careful which one you pick dependant on the length of your cable. the toilets and showers were good, regularly cleaned and the toilets had seats and paper. pre paid card for purchases of bread etc from the shop worked well. the site is not really in walking distance of anything though we saw a lot of people with bikes coming to and fro. this is a lovely area and we were were very pleasantly surprised

This is a nice campsite but it is not worth 4* as it fails on the basic things, gents showers are cold. Not resolved during our stay. Good size pitches for our TA and access not too bad.

We stayed here towards the end of their season, and though we love this site for its location, it desperately needs better up keeping. Hedges and grass need cutting on a regular basis and the moles were invading the pitches. Staff were nice, and the pools are good. Toilet and shower block is clean but water not as hot as I would like. They also have a very good tennis court and a nearby fishing lake.
Even though you have to use their card to buy drinks and food, any money you put on it is refunded when you leave. There are 3 supermarkets a short cycle away (2 mile) as is the town of St Vallery Sur Somme.
Experienced staff could make this site 5* as it has a lot going for it.

We went at the end of the season but the site was still good, excellent swimming pools, the bar and restaurant were quite good, and the surrounding area was very enjoyable.

This is a nice friendly site less than 2 hours from Calais, The showers and toilets are well maintained, 2 swimming pools. the onsite takeaway and restaurant are both of a good standard, and the surrounding area is good for shopping all in all a very nice week was had here.

I was very disappointed that the site didn’t look as well maintained as it had on previous visits. On arrival we were allocated a pitch which require the grass cutting, it was in the shade and a good walk from the toilet block and campsite facilities, this even though there was a large number of better pitches empty. We were told that in order to use the shop, bar or restaurant we would have to buy a camp cash card as these facilities did not take money. As we were only stopping one night we did not used any of the camp facilities.

There is no organisation at all at this site, there is no forward planning for allocation of pitches, and as a result the grass is not cut prior to new arrivals. When you are given a pitch, there is no guarantee that it will be vacant, you will then be given a list of pitch numbers that may or may not be vacant and told to take your pick. Despite complaints sewage leaked onto a nearby pitch for 3 days before any action was taken. Water to the ladies shower block was intermittent and the temperature varied from freezing to scalding. The water points around the site were thick with algae and quite often the drains were blocked. This site is definitely not up to Castels Camping normal standards.
