What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Engesberg Seaside Bath is praised for its beautiful seaside location and excellent on-site restaurant. While the new shower facilities are a highlight, some guests note that older toilet blocks are dated and the campsite is still under development. It's considered a good family option, though a playground is missed, and pricing can be a consideration for basic camping.
"Nicely organised site. Great showers. Toilets dated, but clean. Excellent kitchen facilities. Good laundry, 100SEK. Great position on the water.
Some through traffic to other accommodation, but not intrusive."
Mark Upchurch
"Stayed one night in a tent. Close to the water, very nice surroundings. Good information and services, toilets and showers were new and very fresh. Staff is nice and friendly. We missed a playground which would have been a big plus as we have children.
Restaurant is excellent and well worth a visit even if you don't plan to stay the night.
Stayed in a tent so I can't say anything about the rooms."
Johan Eklöf
"We stayed one night with a small tent. We had a meal in the restaurant. The tent spots are new, at the end of the campsite and range from small to large. The food in the restaurant is good. The overall service very kind and informative. Campsite in development it seems. We would not hesitate to come back."
