Just passing through for the weekend to meet up with my parents and children. Unfortunately, both of my children fell very ill, but the attentiveness, empathy and kindness of the owners and their team allowed us to have a good weekend regardless. Without any judgment or pretension, the owner called several numbers so that my children could see a doctor.
Beyond their sense of family, this is a simple campsite close to people, with facilities that make you want to do anything but leave! The staff are incredibly attentive and the premises are extremely clean!
Sincere thanks! See you next year, and microbe-free this time! 😂
