Lovely well-tended campsite in the middle of nature
What a lovely well-tended campsite in the middle of nature. But above all very friendly, helpful owners and staff who do everything to make your holiday more enjoyable. We had private sanitary facilities and they looked perfect but also the sanitary building was spotlessly clean. We had a wonderful time. Really a big 10 from us and highly recommended. We will definitely go back. Regards Jan and Belinda

Enjoyed our stay with a campervan
We really enjoyed our stay at camping de Berken. We camped with a campervan and the pitches were very spacious and accessible for campervans. We camped with our 3-month-old son and the sanitary facilities were absolutely great for babies. The toilet blocks were heated and the baby bath was super. It made camping with a baby very easy. The location is beautiful and we enjoyed the walks through the forest and across the moors. The brasserie had delicious food, wifi is free and of good quality and the personal approach of the owners completes it all. Highly recommended.
