Very well-maintained campsite in a quiet location

Very good8

We used the campsite in March 2025 during a stopover for one night. We only have two minor points to criticize. There are no toilet seats in the restrooms and the slightly higher price of 27€ in the low season.

Very nice, extremely quiet campsite.

Well maintained. Friendly staff at the reception. Clean and lovingly designed shower rooms (potted plants line the entrance area). Soap and toilet paper are provided. If the toilets are not clean, it is probably due to the campers themselves. Absolutely satisfied.

As a Stopover Place, Always OK

We made a stop here for one night during a round trip in early February. The reception is open all day. The sanitary facilities are simple but okay. Usable free Wi-Fi. 2nd person with trailer and electricity: Off-Season 26.70 EUR, High-Season 28.45 EUR. There was nothing to complain about.

Forest camping site for transit

Everything was kept very simple. No word of English was spoken. Nevertheless, very friendly. Due to the few guests in November, all facilities were closed. Attention: The sockets only work when they are activated at the reception.
