Limpio y silencioso.
Es un camping grande que tiene tambíen habitaciones estilo hotel desatendido sin recepción, entras con código. Tienes cocina, microndas, lavanderia, etc... La habitación estaba limpia y era cómoda. El wifi funcionaba regular. No tiene desayuno incluido pero puedes ir al pueblo a 1 minuto en coche y desayunar donde quieras.

Rigtig fin til en overnatning. Elsker de havde køkken, hvor man selv kunne lave mad - det nød vi godt af!
Vi havde dog ikke fået vores tjek ind oplysninger, men vi ringede bare til ejeren og hun var der inden for 2 minutter.
