The swimming pond is wonderful, and our kids had a fantastic time the entire vacation. The restrooms were always clean and tidy, too. A lovely, welcoming campground that we look back on with great pleasure. We definitely recommend it and would love to come back again!

We stayed in a tent, so I can't comment on the rooms. We went with our children, ages 4 and 2. They had a great time at the playground on the Oehoevalei and at the swimming pond. The bouncy castle was also a big hit.

We zijn geweest met de tent, dus over kamers kan ik niet oordelen. Geweest met een kind 4 en 2. Ze hebben zich super vermaakt op het speelveldje op de oehoevalei en bij de zwemplas. Het springkussen was ook een grote hit.
