    Very nice campsite, relaxed atmosphere, large pitches. Lots to do in the beautiful surroundings, the owners are happy to give you tips and are helpful. Plumbing is basic and the shower is not always hot at the end of the day, but we take that for granted.

    Hele fijne camping, relaxte sfeer, grote plaatsen. Veel te doen in de mooie omgeving, de eigenaren geven je graag tips en zijn behulpzaam. Sanitair basic en de douche is aan het eind vd dag niet altijd warm, maar dat nemen we op de koop toe.

    Very nice campsite! Owners are very friendly and can give good tips. There is a lot to do in the area. The spots in the field are the nicest, unfortunately we were not there. But I was told that they are already booked again for next year, so quickly full. We were on the car-free avenue, but opposite glamping tents, which makes it a little less atmosphere I think but I was not bothered. Many Dutch people, but therefore the children quickly have contact with other children. Super nice view from the campsite on the mountains. Small pool at the campsite and larger municipal pool next to it where you can pay (2.00-3.50 per day).

    Hele leuke camping! Eigenaren zijn heel vriendelijk en kunnen goede tips geven. Er is veel te doen in de omgeving. De plekken op het veld zijn het mooist, daar stonden wij helaas niet. Maar mij werd verteld dat die nu al weer voor volgend jaar worden geboekt, dus snel vol. Wij stonden aan het autovrije laantje, wel tegenover glamping tenten, dat maakt het iets minder sfeer vind ik zelf maar geen last van gehad. Veel Nederlanders, maar daardoor hebben de kinderen wel snel contact met andere kinderen. Super mooi uitzicht vanaf de camping op de bergen. Klein zwembadje op de camping en wat groter gemeentebad ernaast waar je tegen betalen (2,00-3,50 per dag) in kan.

    We stayed at this campsite for one night, confident in its three-star rating, but the usual criteria for this category were not met, and neither was the value for money. The pitches are pleasant and quiet, but small, the showers are lukewarm, toilet paper is not provided and there are no soap dispensers near the toilets. On the other hand, the campsite is clean and has children's play equipment - a little outdated, admittedly, but adequate. The restaurant, on the other hand, is to be avoided: bland cuisine from aperitif to dessert and a service that doesn't speak a word of French, giving the impression that every request is a nuisance. The welcome is very cold (let's say... Germanic), which surely corresponds to the predominantly Germanic clientele.

    Nous avons séjourné une nuit dans ce camping, confiants grâce à son classement trois étoiles, mais les critères habituels de cette catégorie ne sont pas au rendez-vous et le rapport qualité pris non plus. Les emplacements sont agréables et calme mais petits, les douches tièdes, le papier toilette n’est pas fourni et aucun distributeur de savon n’est disponible près des sanitaires. En revanche, le camping est propre et dispose de jeux pour enfants, certes un peu vieillissants mais suffisants. Le restaurant, lui, est à éviter : cuisine fade de l’apéritif au dessert et un service ne parlant pas un mot de français, donnant l’impression que chaque demande dérange. L’accueil est très froid (disons… germanique), ce qui correspond sûrement à la clientèle majoritairement germanique.

    The owners are welcoming, professional, attentive 👍👍👍 The pitches are pleasant, quiet and clean camping 🦋🍄 The sanitary facilities are clean and everything has been thought of for our comfort , families will appreciate the delicate attentions Minuses: Lots of signs with instructions Obligations, prohibitions This detracts from the carefree atmosphere of the campsite. I think campers appreciate being accompanied, but I felt there were too many instructions, duties and obligations. The price of wifi: 3 euros per day Too high in my opinion We've been camping for a long time, and many campsites offer a wifi connection. Knowing that there is no network at the campsite I'd like to conclude on a positive note, which reflects all the services offered by this campsite: very pleasant, don't hesitate!
