A beautiful campground in a great location—we’d love to return someday.
The campground’s location is really lovely. The surrounding area features a barefoot trail that leads directly to a sensory trail (a nice place to take a short walk after dinner so the kids can sleep soundly afterward). A simple but perfectly fine pool; it was a bit cold at the beginning of the week because the water is heated by the sun. During the week, it reached 35 degrees, and then the pool was truly wonderful for cooling off.
There are two restroom buildings, which are clean and well-maintained. We chose a nice spot next to a playground. Ideal for the kids, though there’s no shade by the sandbox. Luckily, we brought a beach umbrella.
The hiking trail from the campground to Larochette Castle is truly a gem. We followed the M4 trail + blue diamond markers. Beautiful scenery among the rocks 🪨 and fun little climbs.
There’s also plenty to do in the surrounding area.
Tip for families with young kids: the marble runs. €2 for a nice wooden marble—the kids have a blast, and we still get to explore the area a bit.
The staff is friendly and helpful. They generally speak Dutch or have a good command of English or German. Every morning, you can pick up bread rolls at the campground store, which also sells a variety of other products.
Our daughter even wanted to go get her own bread rolls for the last three days. She was well taken care of, and the staff later commented positively on this, noting that she was proud and that they’d given her a little help getting started. Wonderful.
All in all, we’d love to come back here again.this is a translation, click here for the original
Prachtige camping en geweldige ligging waar we graag nog eens naar terug willen keren.
De ligging van de camping is erg mooi. Naastgelegen omgeving bevat een blotenvoetenpad direct aansluitend een motoriekpad ( leuk om na het avondeten even te lopen zodat de kids daarna lekker kunnen slapen). Simpel maar prima zwembad, in het begin van de week wat koud doordat het water door de zon opgewarmd wordt. Gedurende week was het 35 graden, toen was het zwembad echt heerlijk om even af te koelen.
Twee sanitair gebouwen, die schoon en netjes onderhouden zijn. Voor ons was er een mooie plek, aan een speelveld gekozen. Ideaal voor de kinderen, alleen geen schaduw bij de zandbak. Gelukkig hadden wij een parasol mee.
De wandelroute vanaf de camping naar het kasteel Larochette is echt een pareltje. De M4 gevolgd + blauwe ruit. prachtig tussen de rotsen 🪨 en leuke klimmetjes.
In de omgeving ook voldoende te doen.
Tips met jonge kids, de knikkerbanen. €2 voor een mooie houten balletje, kids veel plezier en wij toch nog wat kunnen ontdekken van de omgeving.
Personeel vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Praten over het algemeen Nederlands of kunnen voldoende Engels of Duits. Elke ochtend is er de mogelijkheid om broodjes te halen in de camping winkel, waar ook wat andere producten te verkrijgen zijn.
Onze dochter wilde zelfs de laatste drie dagen zelf broodjes halen. Er word goed voor haar gezorgd en het personeel spreekt ons later positief hierop aan, dat ze trots was en dat ze haar even op weg hielpen. Prachtig.
Al met al, wij komen hier graag een keer terug. -

The surroundings? Absolutely stunning! I’ll definitely be back! The service at this campground? Also great. A friendly young man is always willing to help you, as are his parents. Thank you all so much!
The only downside is that when the campground is full, some spots can get a bit cramped. It’s not that bad, but a little privacy is always nice. Plus, in some spots, there’s no room for your car, or it’s hard to get to if you’re traveling with a trailer.
The restroom facilities are cleaned very thoroughly. The pool is clean and nice. A bit cold, but that’s fine when it’s 40 degrees!
In short, the downsides are minor. The upsides more than make up for everything. Thank you so much for another set of wonderful memories!
Tip for the campground:
Drying your hands with a towel is much nicer. The hair dryer provided is weak and hardly does anything.this is a translation, click here for the original
De omgeving? Bizar mooi! Ik kom hier zeker terug! De service van dezd camping? Ook goed. Vriendelijke jongeman is altijd bereid je te helpen. Evenals zijn vader en moeder. Dank jullie wel!
Enige minpunt is dat als de camping vol is je op sommige plekken wel hutje-mutje staat. Het is niet zo erg, maar enige afscheiding is altijd wel prettig. Plus een plekje voor je auto is op sommige plaatsen niet mogelijk of moeilijk te bereiken als je met een caravan komt.
De toilethuisjes worden zéér goed schoongemaakt. Zwembad is schoon en goed. Beetje koud, maar dat is prima als het 40 graden is!
Kortom, minpuntjes zijn klein. De pluspunten maken alles meer dan goed. Dank jullie hartelijk voor weer mooie herinneringen!
Tip voor de camping:
Je handen afdrogen met een doek is wek fijner. De föhn die er staat is zwak van kracht en doet bijna niets. -

Great campground. We've been here before, and it feels like coming home. There's plenty to do in the area, including activities for kids. The pool is wonderful, too. A small shop, a restaurant—it has everything you need.

Geweldige camping. We zijn hier al eerder geweest en het voelt als thuiskomen. In de omgeving is er van alles te doen, ook voor kinderen. Ook het zwembad is heerlijk. Winkeltje, restaurant, alles is aanwezig.
