Likte The views and location are incredible. There are showers, toilets and hot water available.
Likte ikke The parking situation - not enough space and the campsite became covered in vehicles.
Pitches are wayy too close together, we were literally pegging our guy ropes in between the guy ropes of the tent next door (guy ropes were needed as it was so windy!) and the sea of cars took away from the ‘wild camp’ feeling.
To many people squeezed into small spaces - one ‘pitch’ is literally an uneven grass verge next to the main track. Great if you like cooking your dinner on the floor whilst cars, people and dogs go right by…

Fra bestyreren: Thanks for the feedback, and we’re glad you enjoyed the views and location. We’re sorry the site felt busier than you were hoping for. We are a small, informal campsite rather than a wild-camping site, and guests are generally able to park beside or close to their tents. Inevitably, when people choose to park immediately alongside their pitches, cars will be visible around the camping areas. We were a little surprised by the comment about the trackside pitch, as this wasn’t the pitch you booked or stayed on. We have a range of pitches across the site, with different characteristics, and not every pitch is intended to offer exactly the same experience. It therefore seems slightly unfair to criticise the site based on a pitch you weren’t actually using. There is also a large covered communal area with tables specifically provided for cooking, eating and spending time out of the weather, so nobody is required to prepare their dinner on the ground beside the track. Presenting that as an unavoidable part of staying here is a little misleading. We do take the point about spacing seriously and will continue to keep an eye on how pitches are laid out at busy times. That said, in very windy conditions tents naturally require more extensive guying-out, and neighbouring campers’ choices about tent position, guy lines and where they park their vehicles can all affect how spacious an area feels. Ultimately, we’re a small, popular campsite in a beautiful location which you booked to stay at during the height of the summer season. We completely understand that some people are looking for something closer to remote wild camping, but that is always going to be a rather different experience from staying on a serviced campsite with toilets, showers, hot water and vehicle access!

Likte Great campsite with good facilities. Relaxed arrival and departure. Great views.
Likte ikke Grass was slightly long which meant wet feet after the rain!
