North France via ferry with car. We will also have our nearly 5 yo.

Baby isn't walking yet, so will be in pram. Luckily campsite has indoor and outdoor pool.

Any tips and advice greatly appreciated!

No specific tips for a 13mo, but remember to pack:
Ice cube tray
Bin liners
Extension lead - they have limited plug sockets and also saves you getting multiple European adapters
Cool bag/box, Tupperware and ice packs for picnics. Maybe tin foil/cling film/sandwich wraps
Tea towels and dish cloths
Beach bag - not just for the beach, but also for taking stuff to and from the pool
Blackout blind if you have one
Bin bags for dirty laundry etc…
A small bottle of washing liquid
Pegs and a travel washing line (especially useful for swimming stuff)
A few washing machine tablets/pods
Research your nearest supermarket and how to get there. Don’t forget to take bags to the supermarket. Some continental supermarkets don’t offer any bags at all.

Something to put in the shower that can turn it into a bath - small inflatable paddling pool?

Bath mat

Ask if it's possible to hire a stair gate for the front door. Also high chair, travel cot.

Big picnic blanket for the deck.

Your own veg knife plus a chopping board - they only have glass board thing and it is horrible to chop on. Tim foil - its amazing what you can do with tin foil. Ant and fly spray.
A small fan
Black bin liner.
French supermarkets are fab.
Swim nappies for the pool.

It will be lovely - have fun! We did these types of holidays for years. Also, if you like the site, have a good shufty and check out the sites own mobile hipomes for rent - often cheaper than Eurocamp, should you want to go away there again.
