Natuurbad en Camping Engelbert

A lovely campsite for €30.75 for 2 people, including electricity. A lot of noise from the nearby highway, and we were literally bumper to bumper on the water. It was noted that we could swim from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Too bad, because we would have liked to swim before breakfast and departure. We were therefore quite surprised when a group of women showed up swimming around 8:30 a.m. The manager commented: "You should have asked me, you're welcome to swim earlier."

What a warm welcome from Tanja, one of the campsite managers. We immediately felt welcome. Situated on a rustic swimming lake with spacious pitches by the water. Well-maintained sanitary facilities. Opposite the campsite is Harrie's Eetcafe, which is highly recommended. Within cycling distance of Groningen city center.

Very friendly owners on a well-maintained site. The waterfront pitches are spacious. The only downside is the chemical toilet disposal, which is located in a drain in the floor, creating a high risk of splashing, which is unhygienic. We reported this to the owners. There are lovely cycling routes, and it's fun to watch ships launch sideways at the Pattje shipyard.
