Parc Highlights

  • A fantastic setting to explore this beautiful part of France

  • A great stopover point when you're travelling via Calais

  • Close to the impressive Cite de l'Europe shopping centre

The easiest way to discover rural France, or a natural stopover point on your journey South.

A popular stopover on the way south, La Bien Assise however has much to recommend it for a longer stay. The wooded grounds of the moated mansion make a delightful setting for the spacious pitches of this mall ‘Castels’ parc and it offers excellent facilities, including a welcoming restaurant and a covered pool, with a waterslide for the children. This relatively undiscovered area offers you the best of both worlds too: a rural setting for getting away from it all, and a coastline that teems with sandy beaches and bustling resorts. The parc also organises walks in the surrounding woods and watersports enthusiasts will love nearby Lac d’Ardres.
