    We had a seasonal spot at the campground this year and will do so again next year, for the kids an ideal campground. Not too big, but small and cozy. The animation was really great during the vacations. We have had wonderful weekends and vacations at camping de Pampel. The restaurant, plumbing and pool are well cared for.

    Wij hebben dit jaar een seizoensplek gehad op de camping en gaan dat aankomend jaar weer doen, voor de kinderen een ideale camping. Niet al te groot, maar klein en gezellig. De animatie was in de vakantieperiodes echt top. Wij hebben heerlijke weekendjes en vakanties gehad op camping de Pampel. Het restaurant, sanitair en zwembad zijn prima verzorgd.

    We stayed here for a long weekend in June. The campground is large and there are several options in terms of pitches. On an open field or just a little more privacy with bushes fenced in. We preferred pitch 401 based on the map. This is a somewhat smaller field, close to sanitary facilities and swimming pool. Unfortunately also with the least playground, only a small slide and sandbox. There are plenty of nice playgrounds all over the campsite. The spots on this field were ok, but am glad we didn't have rain. Because the spots are somewhat in a pit and we would have definitely stood in a puddle of water. The plumbing is not the best. The showers have a weak jet and a timer of 5 min, after which you have to wait another 5 min. This makes it almost impossible to wash your hair normally. And even though it was quite busy with campers, the toilets were only cleaned once a day. In the evening I actually did not want to use them anymore, so dirty! Swimming pool all nice. Part can be covered. Large paddling pool, slide and also space to swim laps. Paddling pool fenced off for extra safety, great! Opening hours of the supermarket was very limited 1 to 2 hours on a day and nearest ordinary supermarket still at least fifteen minutes drive. But if you take this into account it is fine. When we were there there was unfortunately no animation, but fortunately there is plenty to do on the campsite. The restaurant and terrace are a great place for a snack and a drink. Eaten once in the evening but that experience was less. We were very rushed to make a choice and order quickly. "Because they have a small kitchen and then we could join the ordering round"??? The restaurant was 1/3 full....? Food otherwise fine. All in all nice campground in nice area. We had a great time and super for kids.

    Wij verbleven hier een lang weekend in juni. De camping is groot en er zijn verschillende opties qua kampeerplaatsen. Op een open veld of juist wat meer privacy met bosjes omheind. Wij hadden op basis van de plattegrond een voorkeur opgegeven voor plaats 401. Dit is een wat kleiner veldje, dicht bij sanitair en zwembad. Helaas ook met het minste speeltuintje, alleen een kleine glijbaan en zandbak. Over de hele camping zijn er overigens wel genoeg leuke speelgelegenheden. De plekken op dit veld waren ok, maar ben blij dat we geen regen hebben gehad. Want de plekken liggen wat in een kuil en we hadden zeker in een plas water gestaan. Het sanitair is niet best. De douches hebben een zwakke straal en een timer van 5 min, waarna je weer 5 min moet wachten. Hierdoor bijna onmogelijk om normaal je haar te wassen. En ondanks dat het best druk was met kampeerders, werden ook de toiletten maar 1x per dag schoon gemaakt. S' avonds wilde ik deze eigenlijk niet meer gebruiken, zo vies! Zwembad helemaal leuk. Deel kan overdekt worden. Groot peuterbad, glijbaan en ook ruimte on baantjes te trekken. Peuterbad afgezet met hekken voor extra veiligheid, top! Openingstijden van het Supermarktje was zeer beperkt 1 a 2 uurtjes op een dag en dichtsbijzijnde gewone supermarkt toch ook wel minimaal kwartier rijden. Maar als je hier rekening mee houd is het prima. Toen wij er waren was er helaas geen animatie, maar gelukkig is er genoeg te doen op de camping. Het restaurant en het terras zijn een prima plekje voor hapje en drankje. Één keer in de avond gegeten maar die ervaring was minder. We werden heel erg opgejaagd om snel een keuze te maken en te bestellen. "Omdat ze een kleine keuken hebben en we dan met de bestelronde mee konden"?? Het restaurant was voor 1/3 gevuld....? Eten verder prima. Al met al mooie camping in een mooie omgeving. We hebben een leuke tijd gehad en super voor kinderen.

    Camping with Private Plumbing: the price was hefty! €534.00 for 9 nights. Then you surely expect a hot shower for 2 people and the ability to do the dishes ... Unfortunately ... that was not possible. Besides 1 sink inside there was no sink outside where this was possible. When we arrived, the little building stank so bad that it was still cleaned. Not for us again!!!! Too bad because the location is fine!

    Kamperen met Privé sanitair: de prijs was fors! €534,00 voor 9 nachten. Dan verwacht je toch zeker een warme douche voor 2 personen en de mogelijkheid om de afwas te kunnen doen... Helaas ... dat kon niet. Naast 1 wastafel binnen was er buiten geen aanrechtje waar dit mogelijk was. Toen we aankwamen stonk het gebouwtje zo erg dat deze alsnog schoon werd gemaakt. Voor ons niet nog een keer!!!! Jammer, want de locatie is prima!

    Pool water is freezing cold, not above 23 degrees. Children 7 and 5 could not swim for more than 15 minutes. Very misleading! Don't think about a solution and don't take their complaints seriously either below.

    Zwembad water is ijskoud, niet boven de 23 graden. Kinderen 7 en 5 jaar konden niet langer dan 15 minuten zwemmen. Heel erg misleidend! Denken niet mee aan een oplossing en nemen hun klachten ook hieronder te zien niet serieus.
