Lovingly managed, this facility is a place of comfort, but the road is loud. Also, you can only leave by car!

It is not for nothing that many Norway travelers keep coming back and even stay a few days longer. The owners run the campsite with a lot of passion and are always helpful and friendly. The negative experience comes from many so-called campers themselves. Satisfied guests for more than 20 years - that speaks for itself.

Heike und Uwe
A campsite with a family atmosphere. We felt very warmly welcomed here after a long drive. Very well-maintained site with clean sanitary facilities. We could choose our own parking spot for our motorhome. Our dog was welcome. The site is located on a busy road, which you often find in Norway. In the back area, you certainly won't notice this road. We were stationed by the road but were still able to sleep very well at night. On the other side of the road, there is a small bathing beach at the foot of the Mandal River, which is also well suited for children. Would come back anytime.

Frequently asked questions about the campsite Sandnes Camping
What makes the location and terrain of Sandnes Camping so special?
The campsite features a flat meadow terrain, idyllically situated between a dense forest and a road. Here, you can enjoy a wonderful view of rugged cliffs and wooded hills. It is a well-laid-out, very family-run campsite that is perfect for a relaxing break.
What about water access and activities?
Directly across the road is the Mandal River. The operators have set up a great bathing spot there with a small beach, which is also perfect for children. In addition, the site is ideal for anglers and boating enthusiasts, as there is a boat jetty, a boat slip, and a boat rental directly on site.
Are there any special features regarding the road or sanitary facilities I should know about?
The campsite is located directly on a road, which is super practical for arrival. At night, it usually gets quieter, and you will hardly hear the road in the rear area of the site. The sanitary facilities are clean and lovingly maintained, but with 4 showers and 6 toilets, they are quite limited – so there may be short waiting times during the high season.
What prices and extra costs should I expect at Sandnes Camping?
How is the arrival process, and is the campsite suitable for transit?
