3.0/5
Clean and tidy place, reception personnel however lacks something to be desired- when checking in we asked if we could get place no.13 since it had a beautiful view (which the campsite advertises with
). The lady at the reception desk declined pointing out that there was already someone on the 12 and she didn't want them to be disturbed - even though the slots are divided by thick hedgerows - and then giving us a place somewhere in the backyard without any view at all. There was someone at the other side on slot 11 though. Then I wanted to take the registration number of our campervan down (which we unfortunately didn't know by heart) and walked to the door from where I could see the car. My putting the registration sheet to the wall so I could write the number down caused a sharp "Don't write on the wall!!! It is only four digits so you should be able to memorize them and write them down at the desk" from the lady. So far, so good! Eventually my credit card got declined when we proceeded to payment. I asked if we could try again but she declined saying that she allegedly wasn't allowed to give it another try if the card had been declined once (never heard of) and so I now needed to pay in cash. Wouldn't stay here again if it could be avoided...
