A nice place and good person

They are kindly for that no worries but they never refund the deposit, for us is wasted effort.

38 € for an unkempt campsite where you still have to pay for hot water. No explanation was given when registering. Seen cleaning lady busy, disaster. With 1 rag cleaned all toilets urinals and sinks.

Friday-Sunday stay, 1 camper + 2 tents. Overall good experience: nice welcome, roomy spots, clean toilets & showers. Lot's of opportunity for biking & walking. Bakery service offered.

We spent a week here this summer (July 2018). Camping pitches are spacious, situated along the edges of rectangular fields. Every single pitch has a water tap. Take care to have a pitch on the shady side of the field. Also remember to keep some change as having a hot shower costs 50 cents. Having a cold one for free is not an option. Nothing much special about the place although it offers a natural pond for swimming. Fresh bread is available on order but not before 9am. I recommend driving down to the village of Retie for a canoe trip down the river Nete. It takes you through a pretty part of the country. Not for thrill seekers.

Camping is fine, but the showers are ridiculous; 50 cents for 6 minutes(!). The system 'needs warming up' or something, so you keep inserting coins while nothing happens. Plse upgrade to the 21st century?
