    Een echte aanrader! De vriendelijke service is top! De faciliteiten zijn geweldig! Een geweldige camping voor kinderen (veel speel mogelijkheden en veel andere speelmaatjes) en volwassenen. En veel dieren om te aaien, knuffelen, verzorgen. Afgelopen 2X een weekend geweest. 1 X met kleinzoon en 1x met kleindochter. Zij willen snel weer terug. Wij vinden het zelf ook heerlijk daar. Prachtige, rustige omgeving. Een mooi hondenlosloopgebied naast de camping en een klein meertje om te zwemmen. Ook zeer geschikt voor paardenliefhebbers!

    Prachtig mooie, gezellige, veilige en kindvriendelijke camping met veel mogelijkheden om op ontdekking te gaan. Spelen met de dieren, knuffelen met de pony’s, konijnen, varkens, alpaca’s, ezels en geitjes. Zwemmen in het mooie meer, skelteren over de camping en spelen in de hooischuur. We hebben genoten! Bedankt Naduah en Martijn

    Disappointing experience despite beautiful surroundings The first impression was promising: the surroundings are idyllic, there are lots of animals and the atmosphere is welcoming. We had booked two riding lessons as well as a session of pony leading and grooming for our children and paid in advance. Unfortunately, the organization on site was disappointing. Our children were allowed to ride the ponies for a maximum of 1 hour on the second day before the ponies were taken by another parent to allow his own children to ride them - despite our existing booking. The ponies were actually booked for the whole day. The staff member responsible, Mirjam, was out riding with other guests during this time, so we had no opportunity to get support or clarify the situation. The problem repeated itself the following day: the same person claimed the horses again, which meant that our children were again excluded from the riding lesson. This lesson had also already been paid for. Due to these repeated incidents and the lack of supervision, we decided to leave a day early. We hope that in future the campsite will place more emphasis on reliable organization and adherence to bookings in order to ensure a positive experience for all guests.

    Enttäuschende Erfahrung trotz schöner Umgebung Der erste Eindruck war vielversprechend: Die Umgebung ist idyllisch, es gibt zahlreiche Tiere, und die Atmosphäre wirkt einladend. Wir hatten zwei Reitstunden sowie eine Einheit zum Ponyführen und -pflegen für unsere Kinder gebucht und im Voraus bezahlt. Leider war die Organisation vor Ort enttäuschend. Unsere Kinder durften am zweiten Tag die Ponys für maximal 1 Stunde ausführen bevor, die Ponys von einem anderen Elternteil an sich genommen wurden, um seinen eigenen Kindern das Führen zu ermöglichen – trotz unserer bestehenden Buchung. Die Ponys waren eigentlich den kompletten tag gebucht. Die verantwortliche Mitarbeiterin, Mirjam, war währenddessen mit anderen Gästen ausreiten, sodass wir keine Möglichkeit hatten, Unterstützung zu erhalten oder die Situation zu klären. Am folgenden Tag wiederholte sich das Problem: Die gleiche Person beanspruchte erneut die Pferde wodurch unsere Kinder erneut von der Reitstunde ausgeschlossen wurden. Auch diese Einheit war bereits bezahlt. Aufgrund dieser wiederholten Vorfälle und der mangelnden Betreuung haben wir uns entschlossen, einen Tag früher abzureisen. Wir hoffen, dass der Campingplatz künftig mehr Wert auf eine zuverlässige Organisation und die Einhaltung von Buchungen legt, um allen Gästen ein positives Erlebnis zu ermöglichen.
