situation/potential

The campsite is in good condition, with all permits, almost without permanent campers and is expandable.
The campsite was hit by the flood from july 2022. We did a lot of work since then.
With the reconstruction, much has been renewed and modernised, so that there is no investment backlog.

The campsite is allowed to be called a tourist campsite (allowance of the mininistry for tourism in namur). It is a 2-star campsite. This can easily be increased, but we have deliberately refrained from doing so because we want to run a simple, basic campsite.

With its present conception, the campsite can be managed well by 2 persons. Only in the main season an additional helper is nice to have for the cleaning.

Main focus: Tents, small campervans & caravans
Opening time: Beginning of April to end of October (that's our own decision)
The guests are mainly from Germany, the Netherlands, Flanders (campsite languages mainly: German/English).
They are hiking enthusiasts, on foot or by bike, young families, a rather ecological, alternative audience.

All pitches have an electric distributors (10 A/ electricity with radio technology for reading and switching on/off from the office) 3 of them in the forest with 4 CEE sockets each.
