    Review: Beautiful location, but clear shortcomings in camping operations We were on site with a large caravan (approx. 13.0 m long, 2.5 m wide). Unfortunately, the pitch assigned to us proved to be very difficult to access. Without driving over the adjacent pitches, it would have been almost impossible to maneuver without scratching the vehicle. As we arrived before the weekend campers and left after them, we were lucky - otherwise our departure would have been problematic. There are much more accessible pitches in the lower part of the site. Pitches & terrain Some of the pitches are quite small and have a steep slope; we had to level our caravan by more than 20 cm in two places. In addition, the fresh water supply is currently restricted due to construction work on the site; many extraction points were blocked off. Sanitary facilities & service The main sanitary building is visually appealing and has a nicely designed children's area (although there is no family shower). Unfortunately, the condition is poor: most of the silicone joints are infested with black mold. The hot water supply was particularly disappointing: With high occupancy, there was only cold water from 18:00. The reception's reaction to this was totally inappropriate. Our complaint was laughed at, and phrases such as "cold showers are healthy" are not very helpful - especially if you are traveling with a small child. The other sanitary building was closed; the toilet containers set up instead were inadequately cleaned. Leisure & location Apart from a trampoline and a table tennis table, there is little on offer for children. However, the location is a positive factor: the Biggesee lake, cycle paths and the town of Attendorn are all within easy reach. Conclusion The new chalets on the site look very inviting and modern. However, it gives the impression that the focus is currently very much on these rental accommodations and that there is little interest in the needs of classic campers.

    Rezension: Schöne Lage, aber deutliche Mängel im Camping-Betrieb Wir waren mit einem großen Gespann (ca. 13,0 m Länge, 2,5 m Breite) vor Ort. Leider erwies sich die uns zugewiesene Parzelle als sehr schwer zugänglich. Ohne die angrenzenden Plätze zu überfahren, wäre ein Rangieren ohne Kratzer am Wagen kaum möglich gewesen. Da wir vor den Wochenend-Campern anreisten und nach ihnen abfuhren, hatten wir Glück – andernfalls wäre die Abreise problematisch geworden. Im unteren Bereich des Platzes gibt es deutlich besser erreichbare Parzellen. Stellplätze & Gelände Die Parzellen sind teilweise recht klein und weisen ein starkes Gefälle auf; wir mussten unseren Wohnwagen an zwei Stellen um mehr als 20 cm ausgleichen. Zudem ist die Frischwasserversorgung aktuell durch Baustellen auf dem Gelände eingeschränkt; viele Entnahmestellen waren abgesperrt. Sanitäranlagen & Service Das Hauptsanitärgebäude ist optisch ansprechend und verfügt über einen schön gestalteten Kinderbereich (eine Familiendusche fehlt jedoch). Leider ist der Zustand mangelhaft: Die meisten Silikonfugen sind von schwarzem Schimmel befallen. Besonders enttäuschend war die Warmwasserversorgung: Bei hoher Belegung gab es ab 18:00 Uhr nur noch kaltes Wasser. Die Reaktion der Rezeption darauf war absolut unangemessen. Unsere Beschwerde wurde belächelt, und Sätze wie „Kalt duschen ist gesund“ sind – besonders wenn man mit Kleinkind reist – wenig hilfreich. Das andere Sanitärgebäude war geschlossen; die stattdessen aufgestellten Toilettencontainer wurden unzureichend gereinigt. Freizeit & Lage Für Kinder wird außer einem Trampolin und einer Tischtennisplatte wenig geboten. Positiv hervorzuheben ist jedoch die Lage: Der Biggesee, Radwege und die Stadt Attendorn sind schnell erreichbar. Fazit Die neuen Chalets auf dem Gelände wirken sehr einladend und modern. Es erweckt jedoch den Anschein, dass der Fokus aktuell stark auf diesen Mietunterkünften liegt und das Interesse an den Bedürfnissen klassischer Camper eher gering ist.

    From the afternoon only cold water, it wasn't really clean either. When we mentioned this, they made stupid comments that it was just the way it was. Unfortunately, our children then had to take cold showers. The only positive thing was the location.

    Ab nachmittags nur noch kaltes wasser, wirklich sauber war es auch nicht. Als wir das angesprochen haben kamen blöde Kommentare, das wäre nunmal so. Unsere Kinder mussten dann leider kalt duschen. Einzig die Lage war positiv.
