Ik was blij met Loved it here – so peaceful. Perfect for a break from reality. Me and my boyfriend love camping, and this took away the stress of setting everything up. Wood provided too which was a lovely gesture. 100% will be returning.

Van de manager: Thank you for your kind review, so glad you enjoyed the site.

Ik was blij met Location by the river is excellent
Allocated your own shower which has good water pressure and is nice a warm. It’s gas powered and no temp control. Read some reviews about cold showers but have no complaints.
Each shower has a toilet which is essentially a bucket with a bag and sawdust. We didn’t use these because there are two conventional flushing toilets in the sites central toilet block.
Very helpful driving your kit down to the pitch on arrival and departure, there are wheel barrows which we used but they did the heavy stuff for us. Steep hill from parking to the pitch.
Camp fires were great, we brought our own solo fire pit but we were able to buy extra wood from the owners when we needed it.

Ik was niet blij met No electric but we knew that so not an issue for us.

Van de manager: Thank you for your review, so glad you enjoyed your stay & would choose to visit again.

Ik was blij met The campsite is in a beautiful location and the facilities were clean, which is why I’m giving 2 stars rather than 1.

Ik was niet blij met However, our stay was badly let down by poor management and inadequate facilities for the size of the site.

For the entire main tent field, there were only 2 sinks with 1 shared tap for everything — washing up, hand washing after using the toilets, brushing teeth, etc. There was no hot water, and it simply wasn’t enough for the number of campers.

The biggest issue, though, was noise and lack of enforcement of campsite rules. The owners allowed a large group (around 8 tents) who were effectively having a party all weekend — drinking heavily, blasting music, shouting and singing. We arrived around 5pm and the noise continued until after midnight. I messaged the host at 11pm and was told they would speak to the group the following day, although they said it was difficult when people deliberately ignored the rules.

Unfortunately, the second night was exactly the same. By around 8pm they returned with an entire wheelbarrow full of beer, followed by more loud music and shouting until after midnight, plus the sound of people being sick through the night. In my view, the campsite should never have accepted such a large party-style booking, and once they had been informed of the problem, they should have been actively monitoring the situation the following evening. We returned to the campsite at 7pm on night two and did not see the owners come down once.

To make matters worse, when we arrived back on the second evening, another tent had been set up on our pitch, and its occupants were smoking weed.

Van de manager: Thank you for your review.
With regard to the lack of taps, it looks like you only found one water tap, we do have 5 on site, this is usually enough for the tents & guests we have visiting, I'm sorry you didn't find these.
Washing up bowls are provided.
With regard to the large party, I was not happy with the way they behaved, I was at the campsite a number of times during the day & loud music only featured once, when asked to turn it down they did, however, lots of talking laughing & children having a fabulous time also featured strongly.
In hindsight I should have asked them to leave after the first night, but after talking to other campers who had been on site that evening, I felt on balance they deserved a chance.
The text you sent, was received at 5:30 am, although it was sent at 11:59pm, so the time had passed that evening to make a difference, I spoke to them the following morning & I was assured there would be no repeat.
We expect noise levels to reduce on site by 9-9:30pm, if I am telephoned at that time you can be assured someone will visit the site to sort out any issues. - I am much happier to have a wasted journey rather than guests who do not enjoy their stay.

I am sorry we didn't meet you during your stay, it is unusual, we are a small family run site & this has to fit in with our dairy farm, although I do try and be at the site when needed, our calves, cows & sheep also need to be attended to, we just try to do our best & be fair to all, once again I am sorry we didn't meet your expectations.

We have zero tolerance of drugs.
