Great location for a night out with the kids. However, for me the grounds could have been a little more overgrown ☺️

Geweldige locatie voor een nachtje weg met de kids. Wel had voor mij het terrein wat meer begroeid mogen zijn ☺️

A very nice campground near a beautiful nature reserve with lots of biking and hiking trails. There was an event we did not know about beforehand but this was resolved very nicely by the helpful staff. This campground is already beautiful and with future plans it will surely be even more beautiful. Oh and the yoga was super nice!

Deze camping is al prachtig en met de toekomst plannen wordt het vast nog mooier. Oh en de yoga was super fijn!

It took a while to figure out how to check in. There is no reception and the owners were untraceable. What turned out to be that I had overlooked an email that clearly described how to check in... but this should not spoil the fun; Dennis and Asha reveal you as quickly with their warmth. The small-scale campsite with minimalist entertainment is totally cozy. The coziness around the campfire is nice! We stayed in the fire truck; a unique place which is well clean and equipped with all necessities. Our boys spent hours playing in and on the fire truck! We will definitely come back

Het was eventjes zoeken hoe we moesten inchecken. Er is geen receptie aanwezig en de eigenaren waren onvindbaar. Wat bleek dat ik een mail over het hoofd had gezien waarin duidelijk stond omschreven hoe we konden inchecken.. maar dit mag de pret niet drukken; Dennis en Asha onthullen je alsnel met hun warmte. De kleinschalige camping met minimalistische animatie is helemaal gezellig. De knusheid rondom het kampvuur is fijn! Wij verbleven in de brandweer auto; een unieke plek wat goed schoon is en van alle benodigdheden voorzien is. Onze jongens hebben uren gespeeld in en op de brandweerauto! Wij komen zeker een keer terug
