    I happened to stop by this beautiful, spacious campground with my small tent while on a solo bike trip. The atmosphere is intimate and cozy. What struck me was the owners’ friendliness and dedication to service. For example, they lent me a power cord so I could still use electricity, and on my departure day—even though the restaurant area was actually closed—they still gave me an espresso so I wouldn’t have to start the rest of my mini-cycling vacation without caffeine. The restroom facilities were spacious and clean. Highly recommended!

    Op solo-fietstocht bij toeval neergestreken met een klein tentje op deze mooie, ruime camping. De sfeer is kleinschalig en gezellig. Wat mij opviel was de vriendelijkheid en service-gerichtheid van de eigenaren. Zo kreeg ik een kabel te leen om toch van stroom gebruik te kunnen maken en kreeg op mijn vertrekdag, hoewel het horeca-deel eigenlijk gesloten was, nog een espresso zodat ik niet zonder cafeïne aan het vervolg van mijn mini-fietsvakantie hoefde te beginnen. De toiletruimte was ruim en netjes. Een echte aanrader!

    A campground that, under new ownership, is also being transformed into a top-notch destination. The staff has been working incredibly hard, and the results are promising. Hospitality in all its forms takes center stage here. Many renovations are already complete, while others are still in progress. For us, that’s every reason to come back here again.

    Een camping, die met een nieuwe eigenaar, ook wordt omgetoverd tot een topper. Er is en wordt keihard gewerkt en het resultaat is veelbelovend. Gastvrijheid in alle facetten voert hier de boventoon. Veel vernieuwingen zijn al gereed, anderen in wording. Voor ons alle reden om hier nog es terug te komen.

    What a beautiful campground. Everything was super clean and well-maintained. We had a great meal over the weekend and enjoyed some delicious draft beer. The surrounding area is perfect for hiking and biking. The only downside was the bad weather, but that wasn’t Ilse and Hans’s fault. WE HAD A GREAT TIME

    We thoroughly enjoyed a very pleasant weekend at Camping de Hunze Bulten. We received a very warm welcome; the sites are spacious and green, the restrooms are very neat and clean, and the terrace is lovely when the sun is shining. We had some great meals there and sampled a variety of beers. We’ll definitely be back and hope for nice weather so we can take a dip in the lovely swimming pond.
