What customers say
This park offers spacious pitches, a tranquil atmosphere and is well-located for exploring North Friesland. Guests praised the cleanliness of facilities, with ample hot water for showers and dishwashing. Friendly staff and good on-site food were also highlighted. However, one visitor described the site as derelict and neglected upon arrival, opting not to stay. Newer reviews contradict this with positive remarks on cleanliness and friendliness.

Liked We found that the site had very spacious pitches which allowed for privacy. We were greeted by the owner on arrival and made to feel very welcome by him and his family. The facilities were very clean, plenty of hot water for showers and washing dishes, and the electric hook up was everything we needed. We loved the peace and tranquility. There were plenty of places to cycle to and the local town Kollum was great for supermarkets and other shopping. The site is well placed for touring North Friesland -we especially loved Dokkum and Sneek. We would definitely stay again. My WiFi (which has been an issue at many UK sites) worked perfectly here allowing me to talk face to face on Zoom with my children.
Disliked Nothing to dislike.

Do not stay here!

Liked Nothing we we didn’t stay, see disliked!
Disliked we arrived to what looked like a derelict site, no signs to show where we should book in. So we drove in to the camping area where there were two caravans but the whole site was very neglected. Couldn’t see any sign of any of the facilities mentioned just run down empty buildings. We turned around and left didn’t feel safe staying.
