Lovely chalet
Had a wonderful stay in a lovely (4-person) chalet with a covered terrace. Comfortable box-spring bed, large bathroom with a nice shower. Clean and fully equipped with everything you could possibly need. Went on some beautiful walks, starting right from the campsite. Also went on some lovely bike rides. I would love to come back here!
One minor drawback is that the WiFi doesn't always work well.

Lovely cottage on quiet child-friendly campsite
2 pers Cottage is small and fine, complete and very tastefully furnished in a quiet camping corner. Excellent beds and good seats. Very customer-oriented staff and beautiful walking and cycling surroundings.

Unfortunately, it was too short but a fantastic stay!
We didn't have any downsides. We had a Berkenstudio. Perfect!
