    We were in this park for a long weekend.
    We were able to bring our bags from the parking lot to the tent in a handcart. The park is car-free.
    We arrived in the rain and at 14 degrees and were freezing because the tent couldn't be heated. Although it says on the homepage that the tents are heated with pellet stoves. On the 2nd day we were given an electric heater, which we were very pleased about. It ran for 10 minutes, then the plug overheated. So we continued to freeze. The reception was somehow always dark.
    We would probably have enjoyed our stay more with heating.
    The tent was nicely furnished, just not a luxury. Everything you needed was there. The bed was very comfortable. I don't sleep that well at home. When the weather is nice you can sit on the terrace. There is enough space to play badminton.
    The bathroom was very nice, especially the shower. Unfortunately, there's not really any privacy in the bathroom as it's not really a separate room.
    The playground with restaurant and outdoor terrace is great for young parents. On the first morning we were woken up at 6:45 by dogs barking and loud chatter from the neighboring tent. This noise continued throughout the morning. There were a few gunshots the next night. On the 3rd night, motorcyclists banged past several times and there was a very loud bang that really worried me. All in all, we didn't have a relaxing short vacation for a lot of money.
    The park is dog-friendly. You are right in the forest and can go for a good walk. Waste garbage cans along the path for the dog bags would be an advantage. Unfortunately you have to get bread rolls in town. You can't get them in the park. But you can have breakfast in the restaurant.
    WLAN works perfectly.
    It's definitely nice there with small children and in summer.
    The tent was basically clean. Only the ladder in the children's room wasn't really as clean as it should have been.

    Wir waren für ein langes Wochenende in diesem Park. Unsere Taschen konnten wir vom Parkplatz mit Bollerwagen zum Zelt bringen. Der Park ist autofrei. Im Regen und bei 14 Grad angekommen haben wir erstmal gefroren, weil das Zelt nicht beheizbar war. Obwohl auf der Homepage steht, dass die Zelte mit Pelletöfen beheizt werden. Am 2.Tag bekamen wir einen Elektroofen über den wir uns sehr gefreut haben. Dieser lief 10 Minuten, dann überhitzte der Stecker. Also weiter frieren. Die Rezeption war irgendwie immer dunkel. Mit Heizung hätten wir den Aufenthalt wohl eher genossen. Das Zelt war nett eingerichtet, einfach kein Luxus. Es war alles vorhanden was man brauchte. Das Bett war sehr gemütlich. So gut schlafe ich zuhause nicht. An sich sitzt man bei schönem Wetter sehr schön auf der Terasse. Es ist genug Platz um Federball zu spielen. Das Bad war sehr schön, vorallem die Dusche. Leider gibt es im Bad nicht wirklich Privatsphäre, da es kein richtig abgetrennter Raum ist. Der Spielplatz mit Restaurant und Außenterasse ist für junge Eltern ansprechend. Am ersten Morgen wurden wir um 6:45 durch Hundegebell und lautes Gequatsche aus dem Nachbarzelt geweckt. Diese Lautstärke zog sich über den ganzen Morgen. Die kommende Nacht gab es einige Schüsse. In der 3. Nacht knallten mehrfach Motorradfahrer vorbei und es gab einen sehr lauten Knall, der mich sehr beunruhigte. Alles in allem hatten wir keinen entspannten Kurzurlaub für viel Geld. Der Park ist hundefreundlich. Man ist direkt im Wald und kann gut spazieren gehen. Mülleimer am Weg für die Hundebeutel wäre von Vorteil. Brötchen muss man leider im Ort holen. Die bekommt man im Park nicht. Aber man kann im Restaurant frühstücken gehen. WLAN funktioniert einwandfrei. Mit kleinen Kindern und im Sommer ist es dort bestimmt schön. Das Zelt war grundlegend sauber. Nur die Leiter im Kinderzimmer war nicht wirklich so sauber wie sie hätte sein müssen.

    Very pleasant stay had. The tents are spacious and well cared for, this hot tub worked very nice and relaxing. The pallet stove was nice to have in the fresh spring and this worked very well. We were here with two children and they had a very good time. The park is small and quiet and the surroundings are beautiful. The staff is friendly and I can definitely recommend this park.

    Erg prettig verblijf gehad. De tenten zijn ruim en verzorgd, dit hottub werkt erg fijn en ontspannen. De palletkachel was fijn om te hebben in het frisse voorjaar en dit werkte erg goed. We waren hier met twee kinderen en die hebben zich erg goed vermaakt. Het park is kleinschalig en rustig en de omgeving is prachtig. Het personeel is vriendelijk en ik kan dit park zeker aanraden.
