Fantastic Two Week Stay - Wish It Could Have Been Longer!

What a wonderful 2 week stay at this fabulous site, we really didn't want to leave. The staff are friendly and very helpful, the washrooms are exceptionally clean and 'spa like' with soothing music and ambient lighting. It's a busy place with many using it as a stop off for a night or two and at busy times it may appear a bit higgedly-piggeldy and not at all regimented but to us that simply adds to the charm and interest. It's an ideal base with lots in the area within walking distance to keep you occupied. It's great for families and couples alike and one of the wardens is extremely popular with dogs having a constant stash of treats in his pocket to hand out. Along with the recommended places to visit by other reviewers, do sample the delights in Rudesheim's bakery on the Rhein front and for an extra special treat book a table at the the Schloss hotel restaurant on the Drosselgasser. We shall definitely be back!

Superb location

Loved the location and the riverside walk into Rudesheim with it's pretty streets, restaurants and bars. The cable car up to the monument followed by a walk, chair lift and return boat trip was superb. We stayed for 3 nights on a pitch round the edge which was fine. We returned 8 days later for 1 night and were pitched in the middle. Fair enough for 1 night but it was very overcrowded with no privacy. Some motor home canopies were virtually touching the unit next door. Other than that, a great few days and would return.

Excellent Site

We would recommend this site, worries about overcrowding were not observed on our visit. We were given the choice of 3 pitches by the owner, all with shade and sun dependant on the time of day. Lots to do locally and spent most of the week on our bikes crossing the Rhein on the ferries and visiting lots of castles etc. Can't wait to go back.

So good we stayed a second week

So good we booked to stay for a second week. This campsite is in a fantastic location, lots to see and do, we only took the campervan out once in two weeks and that was to stock up on beer, wine and water. There are several supermarkets just a 10 minute walk from the site.The facilities were spotless and the staff friendly, helpful and spoke perfect English. Small shop and cafe/bar on site which we used a few times and thought was good value. Lots of excellent cycling tracks directly accessible from the campsite. We cycled to Eltville one day and to Bad Kreuchaf another, both nice, mostly traffic free rides and you must visit Bacharach, we also cycled here, pretty village and stopped off on way back to paddle in the Rhine at one of the small beaches. Small local market on a Friday morning at Gessinhem which is only two miles from site and has a lovely cafe on the market square where you can watch the world go by. Also recommend cable car ride to Niedwrwahl and boat trip. We also caught train to Koblenz which had fantastic views along the Rhine but Koblenz was a disappointment, wish we caught train to Frankfurt instead. We really enjoyed our stay and were sorry to leave.

Great location

We approached driving passed Lidl and then turned left and passed the sports centre. However the satnav wanted to go straight to Kastanienallee, which was a very narrow road - probably no problem with a campervan. Great site, open pitches, pick more or less where you like, directed by receptionist on bike. Electricity is accessed through the usual boxes, however access is via a key held by staff. No problem with this - just different. Free wifi with password obtained from the Kiosk - access better the closer to the kiosk you are. We were here mid May and the kiosk was only selling drinks, and a few "usual" necessities. The restaurant did not open until later in the season - very reasonable prices. A 15 minute walk into the very touristy town, turn right along the river (through the patio area of the bar/restaurant and the gate). Plenty of choice of restaurants, etc. Rolls can be ordered each day, these were pretty good. Great view of the river, due to us visiting in May there were a few flies which was disappointing as was not great sitting outside. However if you pitch was further back I wouldn't think this would be a problem. We can recommend the "Ring Tour". Cable car up to the Niederwald Monument and surrounding parkland. We took a leisurely wander for about an hour taking in the viewpoints and other monuments along the way to the chair lift, which goes into Assmannshausen. Another small touristy town, finishing with a 40 minute boat trip back to Rudesheim. 15 euros per adult. No paperwork, etc given on check in, however local information is on the boards near the toilets and there is a tourist information centre in the town, on the front. Great facilities - I couldn't believe I was on a campsite. Washing machine use for 3.50 euros including powder (with multi-lingual instructions). The two machines, even had a countdown so you knew exactly how long they would be - new one on me. Would definitely recommend this site, and if in the area again wouldn't hesitate to return here.

Back again and happy again

Second visit in a year and yes, you can go back without being disappointed. The five star facilities remain just that, the location is perfect for travelling about without resorting to using the car or motorhome, with trains and ferries a relatively short level walk along the banks of the Rhine. Open air pool next door. Others have mentioned the proximity to river and train lines but the potential for background noise is a minor price to pay for the ease of access to both and didn't actually bother us in the least, despite coming from Grubhof which is almost completely silent at night but has few public transport links. Once again, a lovely site and a great visit.

A Great Site

Stayed on this site at the beginning of September and we can only echo the positive comments others have made. It's a very busy site which is managed very well by the staff who were polite and friendly. The location for visiting Rudesheim and other attractions around the river is perfect.

Excellent week in Rudesheim

Beautiful caravan site on the banks of the Rhein and within comfortable walking distance of Rudesheim. The Rhein is a busy river with many barges and tourist boats constantly passing the site. This provides the site with a certain buzz of activity without encroaching on the peace and quiet.  Spaces are provided on a first come first served basis and the system for allocation on arrival works extremely well. The manager was most helpful when finding us a space.  The toilet blocks were the cleanest I have ever experienced on a camp site. The bar/cafe and small store are just about adequate but given the fact that Rudesheim has a magnificent number of eateries anything above what is provided on the camp site is not really needed. Lidl, Aldi and Rewe are all located within 3 mins drive. The only minus point is the washer dryer machines. The lady manager was most rude when asked how to operate the only existing dryer when requesting operation instructions. The dryer did not dry our clothes at all and when challenged another token was simply slammed down on the counter. Her attitude should have been helpful but instead she chose to vent frustrations on to us because the dryer machine did not do the job for which we had paid for. Notwithstanding this we will be staying at the camp site again in the future. Fantastic location and within easy reach of all those beautiful Rhein locations. Camp site kept very clean indeed.

Rhineland Wonder

We have just spent a wonderful week at this site and can only echo the good comments of previous club members.  We were greeted by name when we arrived and the friendliness of the owners and staff continued throughout the week. We counted ourselves very fortunate to have been allocated a pitch overlooking the R. Rhine and although we have read comments of overcrowding due to pitches not being delineated we saw no instances of this causing a problem. The toilet facilities are superb and kept very clean and tidy. The location is excellent for walking into Rudeshiem along the river promenade and for access to all the local attractions, of which there are many. Lidl and Aldi supermarkets are also within easy walking or driving distance. The municipal open air swimming pool adjacent to the site provides excellent swimming facilities at a very modest price and as we were lucky to have hot sunny weather during the whole of our visit we enjoyed using it. There were very few children on site during our stay but the aforementioned swimming pool off site and the play area on site were good for families. Overall an excellent site run by friendly family owners and highly recommended.
