Nice campsite in a great location
What a lovely campsite. We had a very spacious spot for our camper van close to the entrance to the forest. The sanitary facilities were cleaned several times a day. The surrounding area is great for walking and cycling. I also liked the fact that there is a nice restaurant with a spacious terrace in the village of Gasselte. It's within walking distance of the campsite, which is great if you don't feel like cooking. There is also a restaurant next to the campsite. It looked fine. I didn't go there, so I can't say anything about it. You are also 5 km from Borger, where you will find all the amenities you need for shopping and restaurants.

Beautiful surroundings, lovely pitches, many young children
Despite it being the high season and school holidays, we had a lovely holiday thanks to the peaceful setting. There were (understandably) many young children, so mornings were quite lively. On the other hand, evenings were quiet early on. You can ask for a pitch a little further away from the play equipment if you prefer a calmer spot. The surroundings are also wonderful, with beautiful places (archaeology and geology) within walking and cycling distance. We will definitely return one day.
