Freizeitpark Camping Schüttehof

Your tinies will be chuffed indeed with a stay at Freizeitpark Camping Schüttehof, a peaceful woodland and hilltop site in the Freudenstadt district of Germany's Baden-Württemberg region.

For summer sees stacks of fab things to do here for kids, including an on-site zoo and pony rides – and there's loads of room to play at all times either around the grounds or at the newly built adventure playground. And if you have a teenager? They may deign to accompany you on a hol to this area in August, to hone their best air guitar skills at the Mini-Rock-Festival of Horb am Neckar, organised solely by the town's teens.

And for the grownups? Well, there's rather a lot around to tickle your holiday fancy too. Horb am Neckar is a popular starting point for day trips of all types around the Swabian Alps and the Black Forest, and its Neckar river setting is a popular place in south-west Germany for boat trips and river cruises around 60 or so handsome Baden-Württemberg towns and villages.

If you're more up for roaming around or staying put on site, there's an outdoor pool to lounge around in or alongside, chess and table tennis to practise your moves at, and a communal lounge for cosy evenings.

You'll likely want to spend significant time in the restaurant and beer garden too, to sample Swabian specialities and cold local beers in these green and scenic surrounds: both restaurant and beer garden are open for 12 hours a day six days a week, so you can settle down for a long relaxed spell in between your active and sightseeing days.

Freizeitpark Camping Schüttehof is in a wooded wildlife haven in the northern Black Forest, at an altitude of 550 metres and 100 metres above Horb am Neckar. It has a guest kitchen, a laundry with washing machines and dryers, and a washing-up area. A mini market sells essentials and camping gas; barbecues and campfires are both allowed.
