8/10 Very good

A unique property, very dated. The camp facitlies were well worn but comfortable, except for the beds which were totally worn out and in nedd of replacement
Gregory, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Het heeft een hele leuke vibe, vooral de veranda is leuk. De staat van de accommodatie is wel wat verouderd, maar daar is de prijs ook naar. Sla deze plek niet over.
