    Absolute disaster - never again! We spent 4 nights there and can only strongly advise against it. The accommodation was a nightmare: dirt everywhere, mold in several places and an unpleasant, musty smell. The house was obviously not properly sealed, so it got cold at night. Not a trace of comfort or well-being. We paid €315 for this accommodation for 4 nights. We were also charged an additional €77 for tourist tax and bed linen. In total, almost €400 for accommodation that should never be offered in this condition at this price. The sanitary facilities were also an imposition. There were too few toilets and WCs for the number of guests and they were very worn and unkempt. The whole place looks run-down and neglected. The treatment of guests was particularly annoying. As the accommodation smelled so unpleasant, we tried to stay out as long as possible in order to spend as little time there as possible. That's why we didn't get back until 11:04pm one evening. Although we arrived only four minutes after the official closing time of the barrier, we were refused entry. The staff showed no understanding or goodwill for the situation and were not prepared to find a solution. For the high price, we would have expected at least cleanliness, functioning facilities and respectful treatment of guests. Instead we found mold, dirt, cold, poor service and accommodation that in no way justifies its price. The price-performance ratio is outrageous. We cannot recommend this campsite or accommodation at all and will definitely not be returning.

    Absolute Katastrophe – niemals wieder! Wir haben dort 4 Nächte verbracht und können nur dringend davon abraten. Die Unterkunft war ein Albtraum: Überall Schmutz, Schimmel an mehreren Stellen und ein unangenehmer, muffiger Geruch. Das Haus war offensichtlich nicht richtig dicht, sodass es nachts kalt wurde. Von Gemütlichkeit oder Wohlfühlen keine Spur. Für diese Unterkunft haben wir 315 € für 4 Nächte bezahlt. Zusätzlich wurden vor Ort noch 77 € für Kurtaxe und Bettwäsche verlangt. Insgesamt also fast 400 € für eine Unterkunft, die in diesem Zustand niemals zu diesem Preis angeboten werden sollte. Auch die Sanitäranlagen waren eine Zumutung. Zu wenige Toiletten und WCs für die Anzahl der Gäste, dazu stark abgenutzt und ungepflegt. Der gesamte Platz wirkt heruntergekommen und vernachlässigt. Besonders ärgerlich war der Umgang mit Gästen. Da die Unterkunft so unangenehm gerochen hat, haben wir versucht, möglichst lange unterwegs zu sein, um dort so wenig Zeit wie möglich verbringen zu müssen. An einem Abend kamen wir deshalb erst um 23:04 Uhr zurück. Obwohl wir nur vier Minuten nach der offiziellen Schließzeit der Schranke angekommen sind, wurde uns die Einfahrt verweigert. Das Personal zeigte keinerlei Verständnis oder Kulanz für die Situation und war nicht bereit, eine Lösung zu finden. Für den hohen Preis hätten wir zumindest Sauberkeit, funktionierende Einrichtungen und einen respektvollen Umgang mit Gästen erwartet. Stattdessen haben wir Schimmel, Schmutz, Kälte, schlechten Service und eine Unterkunft vorgefunden, die ihren Preis in keiner Weise rechtfertigt. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis ist eine Frechheit. Wir können diesen Campingplatz bzw. diese Unterkunft keinesfalls empfehlen und werden definitiv nicht wiederkommen.

    Quiet, very idyllic campsite by the forest. Great cycling route to Amsterdam. Everything very positive, very clean, only one thing to complain about is that there was no kiosk or restaurant on site in the evening.
