Spilhammars Camping - Reviews

auto-translated: We spent 2 nights here with our caravan on our tour of Sweden.
We received a friendly welcome on arrival and were then shown to our pitch. The campsite is located in the forest, depending on the pitch you are closer to the lake or deeper in the forest.
Canoes can be hired at reception.
The hourly rate here is around SEK 80.
Bread rolls can be picked up at reception from 8.30 am. The rule here is first come, first served. No bread rolls are reserved, if empty then empty.
The bathing area is about 5 minutes' walk from the campsite. It is divided into a swimmer and non-swimmer area. The latter is separated by a solid wooden jetty.
The mini golf course was out of order or not open during our visit and was also very overgrown. The showers and toilet facilities were always clean, the wait in front of the washing-up area depends on the time of day, clearly at peak times there can be short waiting times.
A keycard is required to access the buildings, which you receive at reception on arrival. By default, the card is topped up with SEK 30, which is enough for a shower time of 10 minutes.
The shower is activated with a keycard (for 1 minute at a time).
A coffee at reception costs SEK 20.
In addition to washing up by hand, the campsite also has automatic dishwashers, but these have to be paid for separately.
A load of laundry currently costs SEK 50 and is also activated using the keycard.
The keycard can be topped up as required at reception.
As we were travelling with a caravan, the disposal of grey water was no problem (water taxi).
The location of the site makes it ideal for families or travellers passing through. The Katthult farm from the Michel films is about 15 minutes away by car.
The Vimerby high ropes course is 30km away.

auto-translated: We stayed here for 5 nights, the location to the Astrid Lindgren Park, the Filmbyn and Michel and Bullerbü is very good. The sanitary facilities leave a lot to be desired, often queues and not very clean, few washing up facilities

auto-translated: Unfortunately not a nice place. The owner is very unfriendly. Even showering has to be paid extra. It is very noisy. There are only 4 sinks (queue to wash up). The showers and toilets are no different (queue already at 7.00 am). Grey water has to be collected in a bucket. All in all, I would have been happy if I hadn't booked in advance and could have just driven on.

auto-translated: The place is beautifully located in the forest by the lake. The individual pitches are nicely distributed, so you get the feeling of nature too. Those who pre-book online have priority in the selection to stand directly on the lake.

We found the service building to be significantly too small and also not always clean. The kitchen area for washing up is clearly too little with 4 basins.

Top is the location:
Katthult, Bullerbü, Vimmerby is top reachable by car. The film museum is within walking distance. Who travels with children should stay at least 2 nights.

auto-translated: when we were there the campground was crowded, we were on an open plain with lots of turnover. other parts of the campground seemed quieter to me

auto-translated: Smaland forest and lake camping at its best. No place with great infrastructure, but what you really need fits perfectly. We are the second time due to the weather in a Stuga, these are very new and nicely located in the forest, the pitches and tent sites distributed over a few clearings and very loosely occupied at the end of August. We will definitely come again!

auto-translated: Very nice place with very good sanitary facilities. Vimmerby, Katthult, Nils Holgersson World, Norra Kvill NP - all just a stone's throw away. Nice swimming area for children.

auto-translated: Very beautifully situated camping site at a lake. Katthult, approx. 10 km away and Mariannelund approx. 3 km away, are very easy to reach by bike. Sanitary facilities very clean, hot water always available,

auto-translated: Well located for visiting the Astrid Lindgren things in Vimmerby, of course, but also the place itself is worth a visit! The small bathing lake with beach is very nice, a playground is available, the sanitary facilities are good and in the small shop you get what you need. The places are loosely distributed on small forest clearings, so that it never seems overcrowded. The place will be very crowded on a regular basis, so it's best to be there early or make a reservation, in the evening some late summer camps were rejected! We would come again.

auto-translated: Very beautifully located. Top sanitary facilities.

auto-translated: Ingenious for Astrid lindgren fans. Vimmerby, Bullerbü, katthult - everything right next door.

auto-translated: For our visit of the sights around Astrid Lindgren we were on this campsite. The sanitary facilities were clean, tidy and modern. When the campsite was fully occupied, however, it could get cramped. There was also a clean kitchen with several hobs, washbasin and oven as well as a proper washing machine and dryer. Choice of place was free, there were no plots. The place consists of several clearings in the forest, a lake with small bath shore lies directly next door. In the middle of the place is a small playground. A hiking trail is reachable from the place, also some sightseeings like Bullerbü are not far away. Right next door is the film museum of the Astrid Lindgren films. We like to come back when we are back in the area.

auto-translated: The course is beautifully located on a lake and forest with opportunities for hiking and cycling. The toilets are renovated and very good. For the many children on the course, the playground and leisure facilities seemed to have aroused great happiness, which gave them a far-reaching expression.

auto-translated: Good alternative if you're on Astrid Lindgren's tracks and do not want to stop in Vimmerby. Canoe rental by the lake - Katthult, Filmbyn Småland just around the corner and the ALV is only 20 minutes away.

auto-translated: Very nicely located campsite with a nice operator. The site is located between two lakes. At one lake is a nice swimming spot. There is a small store at the reception with bread service. Excursions are also good to make because of the location.

Gladly again.
