It is a little beside the road, but otherwise a very quiet and pleasant place. In the shade of the trees and beside a small pond. Very nice!Translating
A bit noisier at night then we expected but we went to bed at 8pm! The car park is also a through road so some cars do park through. It was quiet so didn’t seem to be an issue parking across multiple spaces. Nice duck pond to explore with toddler after breakfast.Translating
Small parking area, suitable for small vehicles parking diagonally. No services. Small park with sports equipment, causing quite a lot of activity during the day, relatively quiet at night.Translating
Good spot, with shade. 25 minutes on foot from Heroes' Square. You can take the free shuttle in front of the citadel, which is 10 minutes on foot from the spot through the park; get off at Gambetta.Translating
Very quiet, that's for sure. Pleasant walk; I will continue it, as I did not go very far at night (though it was lit by street lamps!). If I ever return to Arras, I will dump and refill water elsewhere, and come directly here.Translating
At night you can hear owls. During the day, some people pass by on their way to football matches at the adjacent football field. Quiet. Only 20 minutes to the market in town.Translating
Good location, not bad for one night while passing through.Translating
We stayed here after the local aires was fully booked. We parked up, sheltered under some trees, overlooking a lake on one side and the rear gardens of some houses the other side, that were hidden by some trees. Nice and quiet with just the occasional local walking by or dog walker. A good one night stop-over.Translating
Great spot close to the Citadel and next to a lake. Quite a lot of dog walkers during the day but very peaceful at night.Translating
Lovely quite night, next to a park and lake. Few other vans for the night, short walk into town. Translating
Spent a great night here last night. Extremely quiet bar the odd car and Walker/runner going past. Fairly chill space, nice being next to the park and small pond. Rubbish bins very near parking, please look after this space and preserve it for future vanners!Translating
Slightly sloping. No services. Quiet night. 10 minutes by bike from the town centre.Translating
Lovely shaded spot beside the moat. Thank goodness the city Aire was full and we found this instead. Peaceful, level, footpaths nearby, choice of restaurants to try. All we need right here.Translating
