    For years we had a seasonal spot we enjoyed staying here. We as a family now want to vacation differently where we want to visit different places/countries. Enough animation with a diverse offer for young and old. The children and we have always had a great time.

    Jaren een seizoensplek gehad we hebben hier met veel plezier gestaan. Wij willen als gezin nu anders op vakantie waarbij we verschillende plaatsen/landen willen bezoeken. Genoeg animatie met een divers aanbod voor jong en oud. De kinderen en wij hebben het er altijd fijn gehad.

    Wonderful beautiful campsite, fun activities with animation also perfect for children. But also for young people with the nice youth loft

    Terrible for families: old pool, no real kids’ activities, poor access in high season. Owner unfriendly, staff unhappy, shop tiny and food mediocre. Many pitches empty after investor takeover. Lost all charm — we won’t return.

    Was a cozy campground with a nice atmosphere. A wonderful place to unwind, but there was also plenty to do for the kids.

    Beautiful campsite where we have been for years always with great pleasure Nice staff who always want to help you if needed Unfortunately I also read the bad review what I notice is that a few times a month the same text is posted under a different name So unfortunate that this campground does not deserve For young children there is enough organized and even our oldest daughter of 22 may still like to come to the campsite.

    Mooie camping waar wij al jaren staan altijd met veel plezier Aardig personeel die je altijd willen helpen als het nodig is Helaas lees ik ook de slechte review wat mij opvalt is dat er een paar keer per maand de zelfde tekst word geplaatst onder een andere naam Zo jammer dat heeft deze camping niet verdiend Voor de jonge kinderen word er genoeg georganiseerd en zelfs onze oudste dochter van 22 mag nog graag naar de camping komen

    Worst campsite ever visited. With small children worthless: pool old and unsafe, animation minimal, children quickly bored. Campsite difficult to reach, had to make a detour in high season without warning. Owner ("The Belgian") is grumpy and not at all hospitable. Camping sold to investor: fields empty, regular guests are no longer allowed to sell pitches. Staff openly complain about bad treatment. Restaurant moderate, store is nothing. Camping without soul, we will never come back here.

    Slechtste camping ooit bezocht. Met kleine kinderen waardeloos: zwembad oud en onveilig, animatie minimaal, kinderen snel verveeld. Camping slecht bereikbaar, moesten in hoogseizoen flink omrijden zonder waarschuwing. Eigenaar (“De Belg”) is chagrijnig en totaal niet gastvrij. Camping verkocht aan investeerder: velden leeg, vaste gasten mogen geen plek meer verkopen. Personeel klaagt openlijk over slechte behandeling. Restaurant matig, winkeltje stelt niets voor. Camping zonder ziel, wij komen hier nooit meer terug.
