Parking area with a view of the lake. Quite a few people come to walk around the lake in the early evening, but nobody after dark. Very nice walk around the marsh.
Very quiet, large, level parking area. Clean, so please continue taking everything away with you.
Calm, quiet spot for a night. We slept well with no disturbances. We woke up to a winter wonderland with the lake frozen over in many places. The walk around the lake was 5km and very pretty. Recommend! No services. Leave this spot as you arrived.
Very good, almost level parking area, with rubbish bins and a pleasant view of the lake. We were awakened in the morning by geese and ducks. The nearby road is not bothersome, with little traffic at night. Beautiful walk around the lake, fishing, 4G works, no TV signal. Thanks to the municipality. Please respect this place.
Very large parking area near a very large lake, with beautiful swans. Near a somewhat noisy road.
There was actually quite a lot of activity until late in the evening, around midnight. Nevertheless, our night was quiet and the lake is truly beautiful. I would advise against staying there overnight at weekends.
Nice place to park, but at night there were youths hanging around, racing across the grounds and sitting in their cars relaxing until 4:30 a.m.
Beautiful view, quiet night. The ground is a little dirty.
We spent a pleasant late afternoon and quiet night. Please respect this place where we are allowed to park; do not empty your gray water directly onto the ground, as someone did this morning! Rubbish bins are beside the pond.
Close to the lake but also very close to the road. We stayed one night and everything went very well; there is very little traffic at night, just the birds on the lake, which are very talkative.
Nice spot for spending the night, super quiet apart from the sounds of the various lake birds. Little traffic on the road. The walk around the lake must be nice, but we did not have time. We felt safe.
Of the two P4N spots close to each other around the lake we chose this one as the views were better & felt more spacious. Yes, more road noise during day but it quietened right down at night. Nice walk around the lake & also in the hills & fields behind. Lovely.
When it is windy—which is frequent—it is not protected at all.
Good 1 night stop. Large gravel carpark with slight slope. Bins but no other services. Nice trail around lake (5km).
Large parking area, accessible to heavy vehicles. Magnificent view; the site is really beautiful. No waste disposal, water or toilets. Some activity because locals come for various activities such as running, walking dogs and cycling. You can still hear the road right beside it.
Great place. Very happy. A bit busy when we arrived late in the evening, then it became a quiet night. A few fishermen. Very picturesque. Warm in mid-August, with a few mosquitoes. Nice, fairly level spot. No toilets or water, and no height restrictions.
Very busy, too busy with people spending the evening there, barbecuing and so on.
Although the parking area was full on a Saturday late afternoon, it gradually emptied quietly. A family-friendly picnic spot and a peaceful night.
