Volsdalen Camping - Reviews

auto-translated: I was travelling by bike and tent. The sanitary facilities and the kitchen are directly at the campsite, unfortunately 1 shower was completely defective, 1 partially, more water was lost at the connectors than came out of the shower head. Showers cost extra. The lounge is spacious and right next to the reception, but also relatively far away from the campsite.

auto-translated: Got the last seat. Several sanitary facilities were out of order. Had to borrow a long extension cable for connection at another point. Fuse failure on power outlet.

auto-translated: The campsite is useful for a stopover or especially a visit to the city. From here, the recommendable Vogelinsel Runde can be reached in just under 2 hours by car. The campsite was not full at the end of August, so the sanitary facilities and cooking/sink area were relatively clean. It was quiet at night, we were in the back with a view of the water. A city campsite at the end of August.

auto-translated: Plus: proximity to Ålesund
Minus: relatively noisy street
Sanitary: i.O.
Conclusion: recommended for visiting the town.

auto-translated: Sanitary facilities were neat. only downside is that it is difficult for disabled people. with a wheelchair you can't reach the toilets at all. with a walker only if you can climb stairs with it.

auto-translated: The bad reviews can be understood. If the location was not quite good for Alesund, we probably would have stayed elsewhere. Sanitary facilities were okay. Service was unfortunately poor. No concession for small things. Unsuitable for camping with a larger tent, as the campground is very uneven and can only be reached via a very slippery path.

auto-translated: We stayed at this campground on August 27. Places suitable for campers, what we experienced as remarkably annoying was the noise of other campers. Of course, the campsite owner can not do much about it. However, the plumbing was also very dirty. There was a cleaning schedule on which the cleaning activities were signed off, the last cleaning was signed off 3 days ago. We will not come back here again unfortunately!

auto-translated: Were sent by the campsite staff very vaguely in any direction to set up our tent, when we were already half done he came, and has us anmotzt the place would probably not for tents and everything else would now already full. The only thing that was still free in his opinion was a more than crooked very small place right next to the main building, obviously no tent could be set up there, so we left. We did not get our money back, he had no cash and said he would transfer it back, after 4 weeks still no money there. Very unfriendly and really a cheek!

auto-translated: In the rear, upper part and 1st row very nice pitches with views of the fjord. Overall, good facilities. The sanitary facilities could be cleaned a little more often due to the high number of visitors. Relatively high price.

Rooms are very clean and everything is new. Recommended

auto-translated: In transit out of season. As a place of transit for one night okay. Also for exploring Alesund. San facilities and the kitchen leave much to be desired. Adjacent skyscrapers and a football stadium, according to the background noise.
2 Pers.WoMoStrom 350 NOK per night

auto-translated: Pro: Ålesund nearby, (rock) beach with jump towers next door, camping cat, lobby with comfortable sofas and TV
Contra: Very full, Sanitary not clean, Kitchen very narrow and full, Dryer not working properly
Conclusion: is suitable as a means to an end if you want to visit Ålesund, but otherwise not recommended.

auto-translated: The campsite is an ideal place to visit Ålesund, to relax and unwind. You stand close to other campers (more like a camping site).
By bike it is 10 minutes, otherwise you should use public transport.
Since the site is very crowded in summer, you should be there in time, as you cannot make reservations.
Next to the campsite there is a place for swimming.

auto-translated: The campsite itself is okay, it's just near several ugly multi-family houses. Accordingly it has been loud in the evening until late at night...
I would not come again.

auto-translated: Kitchen is very dirty with lots of dishes and food standing around. Showers are big, unfortunately no storage for clothes or toilet bags.

auto-translated: Despite the many rather negative reviews (also on other pages) we decided mainly because of the proximity to the city for this campsite - and we were pleasantly surprised!
The new owners have completely renovated the sanitary facilities, so that they are in a very good condition (on the ladies toilet there is also space for changing).
The reception area is equipped with many sofas and also offers some board games and brochures for things to do in and around Alesund in Norwegian, English and German.
Per night fell as a parking space for our camper 350NOK.

auto-translated: Perfectly fine for one night; Shower, sink and toilet always in a room, which means that after the first shower always something underwater. Basically clean but not super-clean. Showering costs 10 NOK for 5 minutes. Pitch for our Bulli per night 320 NOK (according to the price list 350 NOK) without electricity (+ 30 NOK).

auto-translated: In transit out of season.
As a transit place for one night okay. Also for exploring Alesund. Sanitary facilities and the kitchen leave much to be desired. Adjacent high-rise buildings and a soccer stadium, complete the soundscape.

For a visit at Ålesund its a good place to stay for one or two nights

Camping side is nice, modern and has a great location close to the water (great place for a swim!). The city is about 30 min by foot. The cabins are very new, clean and comfortable. The shared kitchen offers everything needed (pots, cutlery, etc.). Unfortunately, we had a hard time bowling potatoes on the cooking plates in the cabins because they didn't get very hot. Sanitary facilities are super small for the amount of people and therefore quite wet/ dirty after a time.

auto-translated: Ideal campsite for the visit of Alesund. 350 NOK for 2 persons including Bulli and electricity. Showers cost 20 NOK.

auto-translated: Nice camping. many simple but clean cabins with great terraces and views over the fjord and into the mountains. campsite small and relatively noisy due to large street. That's why I avoided shelter. something special: the small hut has integrated kitchen but no water / sink. Everything but repainted and maintained / clean. et al also large bed on however unsprung slats.

auto-translated: In my opinion the site is only suitable for campers who want to have a look at Ålesund.

auto-translated: Great location right on the bay, close to town. Pitches on gravel. Unfortunately, the sanitary facilities are not so great (each a shower and toilet together in a door, is very quickly dirty). Staff very friendly.

auto-translated: We were the day after the festival. The last festival overnight stays just left. The place was totally garbage. Sanitary facilities partly demolished. The cleanup work was going on.
Sanitary otherwise halfway ok. City reachable on foot in 25 minutes. Was our most expensive place so far.

auto-translated: Place in 25 min walking distance to the city center. Supermarket in the direct neighbourhood. Place quite nice situated at a sea bay. Unfortunately we were there for a festival weekend - so lots of drunken Norwegian teenagers and music until deep into the night. The receptionist had fairly warned us beforehand, it was also bearable. Well, the sanitary facilities were clearly damaged the next morning.
So actually an acceptable place, but better not on the festival weekend in August.

Small rough area for tents. Limited car parking, facilities not very clean.

auto-translated: We were only here for one night when we wanted to go to Ålesund. The CP is in a great position, as Ålesund is within walking distance, as well as by bike. The rest was not so great. The pitches were not signposted and the sanitary facilities were also very dirty. And by that I don't mean the guest dirt. Costs: 350 NOK (woMo and electricity) For a night to see Ålesund is okay!
