Regrettably so many Danish campsites have now become no-go areas: oppressively over-crowded and over-noisy with holiday-makers, crammed full of static caravans giving a depressingly soulless, alien atmosphere, often with unwelcoming owners and mediocre facilities, and worst of all shockingly over-priced even out of season. This now poses a real dilemma for camping in Denmark. But fortunately there are also many straightforward, small camping places at farm/B&Bs, or coastal marinas and fishing harbours, called stellplads in Danish (like the German stellplatz). As a result, we changed our long-established practice of staying at conventional campsites, and sought out such stellplads as peaceful places to camp, with charactersome settings full of interest, and exceptionally good value, as our ratings show. |
