Camping between forest and civilisation from €22.75 per night

Our 7000m2 property is located directly between forest and civilization. If you fancy a few relaxing days in the forest and just want to let God be a good man, you're in good hands with us. Of course, your dogs are also very welcome, as long as they get along with our 4 cats, who roam around here on the premises. Since there is a hiking trail and a dog park in the immediate vicinity of the camp, they are used to grief. ;-) Electricity for a cool box or mobile phone charger is of course available. However, it would be advisable to bring a cable drum with you. Our open-air toilet is very, very rustic but functional, at least everyone has been pretty excited about it so far. Here you can immortalize yourself on our "Wall of Fame" (our guest book, so to speak). Attention: Since the toilet is not frost-proof, it is unfortunately not available in the winter months, as we then have to turn off the water to be on the safe side. Don't be alarmed, the water comes from a fairly ferrous well and can sometimes look a bit rusty. No problem for flushing the toilet and washing your hands, but it's nothing for brushing your teeth and making coffee. In an emergency, we will also be happy to fill up a canister with drinking water for you. Our large fire bowl is available for a relaxing evening around the campfire, and for a small donation in the money box, you should not be short of firewood. Of course, nobody bothers us about music with a beer after work. To the north, the property borders directly on an idyllic forest that invites you to take long walks. 200 m to the east a small river flows through an old water mill. In the summer months you can enjoy homemade cakes and fresh bread from the mill's own bakery once a month at the mill festival (www.niemoellers-muehle.de). On the way to the mill you will also pass our well-stocked book exchange cabinet, where you can always find something for an evening with a good book. Heading south towards civilization. Both a kiosk and a small snack bar with a great pizza to take away, as well as a bus stop, from which you can be taken to Bielefeld city center within 15 minutes, for example to explore Bielefeld's landmark, the Sparrenburg, are within walking distance. Bielefeld's first brewery, the Bielefelder Braumanufaktur, opened its doors in the immediate vicinity (15 minutes' walk) last year. Here you can not only book a tour, but also have freshly brewed beer tasted on site every Wednesday (bielefelder.com). If you prefer to swim a few lengths through the cool water in the summer evenings, the outdoor pool is only 3 km away through the forest (www.naturbad-brackwede.de). There are various supermarkets (Kaufland / Aldi / Lidl etc.) within a 1-2 km radius for stocking up on supplies. Please note: Whoever is looking for total silence and seclusion is unfortunately not in good hands with us, depending on the wind and weather, civilization can of course be heard. When the weather is clear and westerly winds are blowing, you can't miss the Autobahn.
