Just don’t choose it if there are other options
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Not really much that I liked. Only went here to be close to the ferry and most of the other campsites around where full. Toilets are okay.
Disliked Big mess on the campsite with toys and other stuff from the camp owners. Firepit looked like they use it to burn the garbage. Furthermore just way too expensive for what you get.
Other campers and campowners where playing music till late. Will just nog go here again.

Lovely “off grid” site
Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked Good size pitches. Lots of space. Activities for the children. Warm, friendly environment and you can purchase fire wood and hire a fire pit or bring your own pit. 2nd time visiting and last time the owners put on a fire display but this time they were already booked at another venue
Disliked Nothing.
