Cosy and personal: peace, space and genuine attention
If you value personal attention combined with peace and space, choosing an extra-small campsite is highly recommended. These campsites are often located in green surroundings, on the edge of a nature reserve or close to water. Nature is usually right on your doorstep, with plenty of room to relax and unwind. Thanks to the limited number of pitches, extra-small campsites remain clear, calm and easy to navigate.
The owners often take the time to welcome guests personally and are happy to share tips for beautiful walks or cycling routes in the surrounding area. This personal approach creates a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere that many guests truly appreciate.
On extra-small campsites you will often find well-kept facilities such as a small but attractive swimming pool or natural swimming pond, a playground and cosy terraces dotted around the site. Sometimes there is a small restaurant on the campsite itself, where meals are prepared with care using local products. In other cases, the owners are happy to recommend their favourite places nearby – authentic, full of character and often surprisingly good.
Extra-small campsites are ideal for travellers who value quality, peace and space. They are particularly suited to couples, those seeking tranquillity and young families who prefer to avoid busy crowds and enjoy a campsite with a beautiful location and a personal, laid-back atmosphere.
