Summary created out of 144 reviews
The campsite is beautifully situated in a wooded area, ideal for nature lovers seeking peace and enjoying walks or cycling. Guests particularly praise the spacious pitches, modern and clean sanitary facilities with hot showers, and the friendly, helpful owners. The restaurant La Cantina is frequently mentioned for its welcoming atmosphere and tasty dishes. Downsides include the very poor access roads full of deep potholes and muddy puddles, noise disturbance from barking dogs in the surrounding area, and the limited number of toilets when the site is fully occupied.

It’s a very nice campground in a Pinus sylvestris pine forest. There are several types of accommodations: mobile homes, bungalows, tiny houses, tents, and an RV area. We stayed in a brand-new mobile home. It was very nicely decorated, with a kitchenette, a TV… what I liked best was a large window in the living room that looked out onto the pine forest. It also had some tables outside. The place is very pleasant.
It’s one of the nicest campgrounds I’ve ever been to.
I only see two drawbacks: the noise from the airfield next door, which disrupts the peace and quiet, and the dirt access road, which kicks up a lot of dust.
The playground looks a bit neglected, but we didn’t have any kids with us.
A swimming pool would be a great addition.
The price is high.this is a translation, click here for the original
Es un camping muy bonito en un pinar de Pinus sylvestris. Hay varios tipos de alojamientos movilhomes, bungalows, tinyhouses, tiendas de campaña y zona de autocaravanas. Nosotros nos alojamos en una movilhomes que estaba nueva. Estaba muy bien decorada, tenía un combi, televisión...lo q más me gustaba era un amplio ventanal en el salón desde el que se veía el pinar. También tenía unas mesas fuera. El sitio es muy agradable.
Es de los camping más bonitos que he estado.
Solo le veo dos inconvenientes, el ruido de un aeródromo que hay al lado, que rompe la tranquilidad y la pista de entrada que es de tierra y se produce mucho polvo.
La zona infantil parece un poco abandonada, pero nosotros no llevábamos niños.
Le vendría muy bien una piscina.
El precio es caro. -

Nice wooded location. A small, well-organized campground. Great restroom facilities—no hassle with tokens or having to press a button every 10 seconds. A shower just like at home.

Leuke boslocatie. Kleine fijn opgezette camping. Super sanitair, geen gedoe met muntjes of elke 10 seconden een knop indrukken. Een douche zoals thuis.

Booked a RV site for 4 nights.
Polite emails before arrival. It was very convenient to receive the gate code via email. We were able to head straight to our spacious site.
Beautiful surroundings; lovely walks in the woods.
Had a delicious meal at La Cantina and weren’t bothered by any noise in the evening. Everything closes at 10:00 p.m. The staff was friendly.
The showers were nice, but personally, I wasn’t too impressed with the sink for brushing your teeth or the dishwashing area. You can tell the campground is still under development. The area near the tourist sites and the safari tents is beautiful and atmospheric. The other section is full of permanent sites, which don’t look very inviting. But here, too, you can see that they’re working on renovations.
The only real downside is the smell from the sewer. But I suspect that will be improved in the future.
And barking dogs outside the campground.
Definitely worth visiting again in a while.this is a translation, click here for the original
Een camperplaats geboekt voor 4 nachten.
Keurige mails voor aankomst. Erg handig de code voor de poort via de mail. We konden gelijk naar onze ruime plek toe.
Mooie omgeving, heerlijk wandelen in het bos.
Heerlijk gegeten bij La Cantina en geen last van Rumoer in de avond. Om 22.00 uur is alles dicht. Personeel vriendelijk.
Fijne douches, de wasbak voor het poetsen van je tanden en het afwas gedeelte vond ik persoonlijk wat minder. Je merkt dat de camping in opbouwende fase is. Het gedeelte bij de toerplaatsen en de safaritenten zijn mooi en sfeervol. Het andere gedeelte staat vol vaste plekken, die er niet uitnodigende uitzien. Maar ook hier zie je dat men aan het opknappen is.
Het enige echte minpunt is de geur van het riool. Maar ik vermoed ook dat dat in de toekomst is verbeterd.
En blaffende honden buiten de camping.
Zeker de moeite waard om nog eens heen te gaan over een tijdje. -

We were here for a week. This campground claims to be wheelchair accessible. I suggest the owner test this out for himself. The path from our site to the restrooms is covered in loose sand, with tiles that are so far apart you can barely roll over them. The entrance has a threshold you can’t get over on your own, and there’s no restroom with a wide entrance, so… that’s a problem—same goes for the shower.
The staff was very friendly, though; no complaints there.
Lots of weeds, and the greenery isn’t well maintained.
Perhaps you could also ask campers upon check-in to keep it quiet starting at 11 p.m. Staying up until 3 a.m. is really too late.
It could truly be a top-notch campground. Good luck.this is a translation, click here for the original
Wij waren hier een week. Deze camping schrijft rolstoeltoegankelijk te zijn. Ik stel voor dat de eigenaar dit zelf even test. Van onze plek naar het sanitair door los zand, tegels die ver uit elkaar liggen waar je bijna niet kan over rollen. De ingang is een drempel waar je niet alleen over kan, geen wc met brede ingang, dus... probleem, idem douche.
Wel heel vriendelijk personeel, niets op aan te merken.
Veel onkruid en groen niet goed onderhouden.
Misschien ook campeerders bij aanmelding even vertellen stil te zijn vanaf 23 uur. Tot 3 uur 's nachts is echt wel te laat.
Zou echt een top camping kunnen zijn. Veel succes.
