a perfect camping site..beautiful location... but not for those who want to be in the centre or the district area as it is quite far away from the centre...although accessible via public transport...!!

I think that could have best bed linen, because the weather is cold and the bed linen that have on the cabanas are insufficient. I spent so cold.

The location is a bit far from the city center. The nearest metro station is about 25 minutes walking from the camping and the train takes about 45 minutes to Amsterdam. Couldn't get a ticket from the ticket machine at the local station as it doesn't accept cash. The weather during my stay in April was bad, however rented a bike for one day and it's the best way to get to and around Amsterdam. In general great place for camping, cheap and decent accomodation, would recomand for camping in summer

it was too far from everything, they lied on the time distance from bus and metro, and also the time it takes to arrive to the town centre. on their leaflets they write price of public transport which are not the real one but more expensive.

If you come prepared for camping and with a car this place would be great. If you're the "backpacking" type this place is useless and shouldn't be used as a hostel. Location is far from the city centre, the common room is just picnic tables in a cold room, no fridge, didn't feel secure and high associated costs. For example- transit= 8 euros at least, shower= 2 euros at least, sheets=5 euro, towel=2.5 euro. Toilet papers not even included. Not worth it. You spend more than you think in the end.

Thank you a lot for your care and information that you ve provided before our coming. That was very helpfull! I wish to find bakery and more food in camping shop, but it was low season. Anyway we were glad to find our house with great heating even for winter time and clean and convinient facilities. Best place to stay for this price, more it will in summer!

Nice silent place close to the Shirpol airport (just a 15 minutes on a bus). Tiny wood houses. Wi-Fi. Nice :)
