Wir waren vor vier Jahren dort als der Campingplatz vom Betreiber neu übernommen wurde.Es hat sich sehr viel getan nicht nur bei der Außenanlage sondern im Preis.Wir waren für zwei Nächte da und fanden es überteuert.Für uns jetzt uninteressant.Es gibt viele bessere Plätze.👍😉

Prachtige omgeving. Camping is mooi van opzet. Voelt kleinschalig en is overzichtelijk. Gemoedelijke sfeer waar de eigenaren ook zorg voor dragen. Zij staan voor iedereen klaar om te helpen waar nodig en met ideeën om de omgeving te verkennen. Faciliteiten zijn uitstekend met de standaarduitrusting en een afwasmachine voor vrij gebruik! De kinderen gingen nog nooit zo makkelijk de afwas op de camping doen!

Hele fijne camping. Zeer kind vriendelijk. En zeer uitgebreide faciliteiten. Toch typische dansk.. je moet extra betalen voor de faciliteiten. Niet veel te doen in de directe omgeving maar wel binnen 30km, ribe, romo. Vikingen (vikingdorp bij ribe). Great campsite, certainly for kids. Typical of a Danish campsite all facilities cost extra. Not much to do in the direct area but lots to do in ribe en romo.

Op onze zomervakantie 2025 hebben we hier bijna 3 weken gekampeerd. Het mooie aan deze camping is de ligging. Net voor de kusten van de Waddenzee en tegenover het zuidelijkste puntje van Rømø. Vanaf de camping heb je met een omtrek van een half uur rijden met de auto meer dan genoeg te zien. Ben je fiets of wandel liefhebber? Ook dan is Ballum Camping een prima vertrekpunt. En ben je onzeker over je Deense? Geen probleem, de medewerkers van de receptie spreken ook Duits, Engels en Nederlands. Oh en niet te vergeten; de camping heeft gratis te gebruiken afwasmachines. En een gouden tip is dat je beter in de keuken kunt afwassen omdat daar altijd warm water is. En als je af en toe geen In hebt om te koken dan ben je hier ook op het goeden adres. Foodtrucks met pannenkoeken, Indiaas of kip komen met regelmaat naar de camping. Ook heeft de camping op zaterdag BBQ en de rest van de week kun je pizzas bestellen. Deze zijn heerlijk!

Ein toller Platz in perfekter Lage mit wirklich netten Betreibern. Es ist alles da was man braucht. Der Platz ist sehr gepflegt und wir haben uns über den Hundeauslauf gefreut. Mehrmals die Woche kommt ein Food-Truck auf den Platz und einmal auch ein Obst - und Gemüsehändler. So ist man mit allem versorgt, was man so braucht. Viele Ausflugsziele sind prima mit dem Pkw zu erreichen und im Ort gibt es eine Autowerkstatt. Bis zum Meer sind es ca. 20 Minuten zu Fuß. Es gibt keinen Strand, aber man kann einfach sitzen und die Seele baumeln lassen. Meine Hunde und ich haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Vorsicht bei der Anfahrt - es kann passieren, dass einem auf der Zufahrt zum Platz ein Kaninchen vor das Auto hoppelt. Natur pur. Einfach toll.
