Wir konnten auf unserer Tour aufgrund eines Fahrradunfalles nicht antreten! Der volle Betrag wurde bereits beglichen, jetzt bekomme ich eine E-Mail das ich den vollen Betrag erneut überweisen soll! Wir möchten keine Erstattung aber werden den Betrag nicht erneut begleichen! Verrechnen sie es doch mit der bereits bezahlten Rechnung! Aus Kulanz hätte man den Betrag erstatten können, aber stattdessen bekommen wir eine Mahnung das wir es erneut überweisen sollen! Dreister geht’s nicht!!!

Wer die Ruhe sucht ist genau richtig hier. Der Platz liegt zwischen Feldern, wo man ganz wunderbar spazieren gehen kann oder mit dem Rad die Umgebung erkundet. Der Platz ist sehr überschaubar, sauber und ruhig. Für die Kinder gibt es einen Spielplatz, Hüpfkissen und Pool. Das besondere sind die kostenlosen Fahrzeuge für die Kinder, die gerne benutzt werden. Wir durften unsere ersten Versuche mit einen stad up paddeling machen. Danke dafür Wir hatten ein Glampingzelt mit Dusche und WC gebucht. Es war ein Traum gleich nach dem planschen im Pool ab unter die heiße Dusche und danach Entspannung auf der Terrasse. In der Küche fand man alles was man zum kochen braucht. Wir haben wunderbare Speisen dort gezaubert. Das Personal ist präsent, sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Man fühlt sich wohl und aufgehoben. Wir kommen aufjedenfall wieder hierher Wi1r mochten das kleine familiäre.

Gemoedelijk en ruim opgezette camping. Kinderen kunnen skelters gebruiken, leuk zwembadje en springkussen. We hadden een safaritent echt leuk. Een tip: iets meer licht misschien. Voor herhaling vatbaar
