Excellent environment but…

There is no bath in the tent, while noted in Hotels.com as the tent facilities! No breakfast in the restaurant. No place to wash the dishes. Rather expensive, almost at price of a room in a hotel in Arendal center! There are very few benches! However; Good restaurant with nice people. Beautiful area. Close to Arendal and Risor Close to beach

Camping i sin simpla form. Fint intill havet, även om ”sand”botten var mer snäckor och gegga än sand. Hyttan hade det mest väsentliga, men att det endast fanns toaletter runt ett och samma område drar ner betyget. Vi som bodde längst bort behövde gå onödigt långt för något så mänskligt som toalettbesök.

Flott sted, nasjonal park, nydelig natur. Fint å ha med hund. Dårlig standard på felles sanitæranlegg. Kafeen var åpen til 21:00 men servering av pizza stoppet jo 19:00 uten at dette stod noe sted, ikke på nettsidene heller. Hyttene helt OK, gode senger.

Idyllisk område

Vi leide en enkel campinghytte hvor vi måtte ha med (eller leie mot ekstra betaling) eget sengetøy, og uten eget bad. Dette er greit nok, men Hotels.com må bli flinkere til å opplyse om dette. Vi måtte kontakte campingplassen direkte for å få opplysningene vi trengte. Selve campingen ligger fint til i et idyllisk område på Hove. Vi opplevde aldri kø til toalett eller dusj, men gulvet blir fort skittent på en regnværsdag. Savnet en restaurant i nærheten. Utsalget i resepsjonen er begrenset.

Nydelige omgivelser, gode senger og vennlige unge servicearbeidene. Alt ble skjemmet av dårlig vedlikehold og manglende rengjøring. Vi hadde en enkel, eldre hytte. Terrassen var ingrodd av skitt og malingen flasset av, mange av bordene var rotne. Trist

Greit sted men lite oppfølging på sanitet anlegget, Hadde vært et stort pluss. Kjempe fint område. Hytte tenker vi er en en natts hytte. Ønsker oss hakke opp standar😀

Komisk dårlig

Vi bestilte på hotels.com. Der fikk vi ikke opplyst at vi måtte ha med sovepose eller sengetøy selv. Evt. bestille på forhånd. Det var muselort i senga og matrester på gulvet. Det var en liten trang hytte uten innlagt vann, ikke plass til det antall som var opplyst. En hageslange et stykke bortenfor måtte vi bruke til vann og det var langt å gå til toalettene / dusjene. Det stod vaskefat som vi måtte vaske opp i. Det gikk ikke an å kjøre frem til hytta. Terrassen var råtten, og den ene stolen falt ned i et hull. Når det regnet sklei vi på terrassen som også var full av alger. Det eneste positive var at det var vakre omgivelser.

Helt ok, men slitt hytte.

Stiv pris for en liten slitt hytte. Sanitæranlegget var langt unna hyttene, noe som har medført at noen har brukt baksiden av hytta til do, det er lite hyggelig å se seg rundt når det ligget dopapir og våtservietter rett bak hytten. Sanitæranlegget var veldig lite vasket og flere do staller var tom for dopapir og såpe. Det var ikke opplyst om parkeringsplass unna hyttene, slik at man måtte bære med seg alt man skulle ha derifra, jeg personlig er gravid og sliter med å gå, har derfor vært greit å få vite om avstandene før man bestiller. Det var opplyst om restaurant på camping plassen, men manglede opplysning om at den var sommer stengt denne sesongen, veldig dumt å skrive at det er restaurant på plassen og ikke informere om at den er stengt når man bestiller hytter. Området i seg selv var fint, og har mye potensiale dersom det blir lagt litt inn i det. Personalet var hyggelig.

Under Arendalsuka var dette en fantastisk plass å bo. Eneste ulempen var taxikøen tilbake fra Arendal om kvelden.

Fantanstisk idyllisk sted. Vi reiste familie på fem og bodde i 2 båtbygger da vi var på jobb reise til Arendal. Gode senger, hyggelig personalet, og man reiser derfra med en følelse av å ha opplevd noe helt helt spesielt! Herlig frokost! Anbefales!
