BENJAMIN WIESEN Review of Camping de lakens
First of all: I would like to give 0 stars.
First of all: I would like to give 0 stars.
Now to our stay at the campsite De Lakens: We (2 adults and 1 baby) were just for 4 nights at the campsite and were very disappointed from the beginning. The pitch was so small that our caravan and past just fit on it (caravan 2,30m + pre-2,50m width), after we finally made it. The place was "plowed" in the morning by a tow truck, according to the neighbors. The caravan went so only with many neighbors, movers and shovels on the place which consisted only of deep, loose sand. The camp site staff made the electricity connection, you also needed a machete to get through the stinging nettles and the scrub to connect.
The way to the beach could not do anything. The specified 100m, left on the place card, are a joke. After 100m, the dunes were far from reached. Up to the beach we did not manage with prams (good, all-terrain bicycle trailer).
The sanitary facilities were also not very handsome. Everything was very run down and dirty. The dirt on the shelves in the showers has not changed for 4 days. I do not think this more than the floor was cleaned, if any. My wife also took a cold shower for 4 days because the hot water was broken. A note with the notice that it is broken and repaired as soon as possible hung the whole holiday at the door.
The coronation is the price the campsite calls for this. 4 nights in the preseason for 187 for a normal pitch. This price spectrum is also reflected in the environment. If you go by car to a more accessible beach, for example: direction Zandvoort, there are everywhere parking ticket machines, which only take credit cards. This is also logical, because so much change money can not carry around.
It is a pity that this place is so neglected, because the fundamental situation, in the dunes is really beautiful.
But apparently this is not necessary, the place was fully occupied. We will not be back, for over 45 per night in the preseason, I know many, much better campsites.
