Simple parking, not really a camping, just space for park and a kitchen facilities.
Room units seems to be nice, but for vans slot, there’s not too much.
Sink, 2 tubes, one for cold other for hot water, this is not good for winter, much better would be 1 tube for both.
The worst of the 10 campings I stayed.
For me was just like a parking

Very kind woman at reception.
Camping has some perks like 3 hot pools outdoor, with some leaves in it but still cool. Changing room right there.
Bathroom are simple and clean, hot water running unlimited.
The camping is not very fashion or modern but works good, it is in the middle of nowhere so make our stay nice at the winter night watching starts in the pools.

1 night in winter with a van.
Big kitchen facilities, and playing ground and park for children. Shower with 6 minutes timer, i dont like that, and without heater in the bathroom. Sink 2 tubes, one for cold other for hot eater, never can get warm, better to have 1 tube for both.
I guess its perfect for summer, when you dont mind about the cold.

Best I stayed.
We stay 1 night with a van in winter. It is a Resort not just a camping, Jacuzzi, sauna, bar, well equipment facilities, bathroom with heardryer, ghd, several toilets and showers, nice bbq area an dining room.
The bar was a little bit expensive but very nice place anyway.
Keep it this way!!

we did 1 winter night here, we arrived out of reception hours but the man was walking over there and gave us a place for the van to chose.
Everything was clean and cool, bbq area was big and nice eventhough not for winter xd.
Note that is the cemetery first and then the camping so if you arrive in the dark seem odd but then the camping is perfect.

We stay 1 night in winter with a van.
Very big kitchen and clean, although the heater was not working and was cold to stay there. Common living room with heater :) .
Shower with timer, i dont like it, and with 2 tubes, one for cold and pther for hot watter, so never could have warm. Better to have 1 tube for both runnig; still everything clean. Nice sites with ground and gravel and tables. The family running it was kind.
Thank you for your comments, The heater in the kitchen does have a timer on the side, so maybe that was the problem. We try, with your help to conserve power, as we found people just leaving the heater on, and walking away. The showers do have mixers, and have abundance of continual hot water. We are pleased you enjoyed our park setting. Hope the rest of your travels went well
