The Camper’s take
Updated June 2026
Seaside camping on the Val de Saire coast, 1 km from Barfleur and 30 minutes from Gatteville lighthouse. Spacious, stabilized pitches with direct sea access via coastal path. Full services in season (facilities, electricity, water). Off-season: service area with stabilized pitches (no collective sanitary facilities). Warm welcome, pets welcome (+€2). Some pitches with sea views. Sanitary facilities undergoing renovation.
Highlights
- Exceptional location facing the sea with coastal walking access to Barfleur and the lighthouse
- Spacious, well-defined pitches with some offering sea views
- Warm and friendly welcome with handy services (homemade bread and chips)
- Preserved peaceful and natural surroundings, ideal for families and couples
Good to know
- Outdated restrooms with impractical features (inward-opening doors, no hot water at sinks)
- Shared toilets closed in low season (late September to May)
- Overpriced for the amenities, plus an uneasy feeling about the 2 € dog fee
- Terrain turns muddy in bad weather, parking can be very tight in peak season.
Motorhome access : Access possible but tricky maneuvering in peak season (full campsite). Grass turns muddy in bad weather. Some spaces have stabilized/gravel bases. Slow water refill.
