Liked: Campsite, pitches and location were great. Friendly owners and always helpful.
Disliked: Toilets and showers were dirty, with cob webs around ceilings, shower cubicles and light fittings. No toilet rolls. Plastic shower mats were broken. Generally very tired and in all in need of urgent modernisation and updating.

Liked: The pitches are big and very private, with large hedges surrounding them.
Disliked: The toilet and shower facilities are terrible. They are very crubby and clearly not cleaned properly. Some shower heads and sink taps are broken. The showers cubicles are tiny and full of cobwebs, which have clearly not been removed for months. The whole place needs a good scrub and a proper clean.

Liked: Fabulous location next to the river and a small village on the other side of the bridge. Village had a bar (try the Grimbergen), a food shop (try the saucision) and the bakers. There was also a restaurant but it was shut when we were there. On the site the pitches are large and generally shaded. Some might say it is a little bit tired but I would charming and the host, Mr T, is a lovely lovely man. Watch out if he offers you a free cocktail - boom! You can buy breakfast and he can knock up an omelette but we had our own food. We did however sample his beer and an excellent bottle of chinon. We were there on the way to to the rugby and he set up chairs and we all watched France win their first game. Great memories. Ended up staying an extra night.
Disliked: Nothing. A few cobwebs here and there but they added to the charm.
