Gjeilo Camping - Reviews

auto-translated: Since I have already been here several times and reviewed, I am now writing again in July 22. A beautiful place by the river with a small bathing area. There is a new extension with a new meadow. But the motorhome and tent campers can explain that better themselves.
The cabins have been modernised, as have the sanitary facilities. Simple camping style, but everything is new. The owner family takes care of everything themselves and constantly during the high season. Sanitary facilities are checked and cleaned often, during reception opening hours. In high season 9-22h. Nowhere else have I seen so much commitment from the owners as here.
The cabins are small but practically furnished. No sheets, no kitchen equipment, both can be borrowed. 1 hotplate, fridge.
In any case, check the website.hut 600kr incl. cleaning.
You can't hear the road at night.
The site is very well maintained, each hut has flowers in front of the door.
Super location for all kinds of excursions, hikes.
I would always come back.
Now in the high season the place is quite full. Make sure you book your huts in the morning at the latest. Almost all of them were occupied by 8pm. The operator generally responds quickly to emails.
There is a kitchen with seating for 8, 2 dishwashers, coffee machine, French press kitchen equipment, cooker with oven. Sometimes there was a bit of a traffic jam when washing up, but we are on holiday after all.....
Showers 4 min. 5kr
Washing machine, dryer 30kr each.
In July 23 everything is the same as last year. There are a few more seating areas, some of them covered, near the reception and a barbecue area. This is the 5th time we have stayed here. The main reasons are the warmth and commitment of the owners and the cleanliness of the site and the sanitary facilities.
sanitary facilities. Also the central location to Sognefjell, Strynefjell, Geiranger, Rondane, Lom.

auto-translated: Clean and tidy cabin. Toilet/bathroom clean and tidy, as is the kitchen area.
Nice location and quiet space, you don't hear the road that runs close by

auto-translated: Perfect campsite. Very well cleaned. Nice summer flowers in pots and other details made it a cosy place. Cosy beach and airy beautiful places to stand. Adequate playground and two cars to drive around made this also a perfect campsite for children.

auto-translated: in the entry of 24.7.22 everything is described very well and it is true. We were for one night in a cottage, boss very friendly and talkative.

auto-translated: A very familiar campsite. You feel right at home and almost a bit at home. You notice that the owners run the campsite with love. They are very helpful and friendly.
It is a rather rustic place without plots and not always flat. The sanitary facilities and the kitchen are always clean, even if the kitchen has always been very full and could be larger for the size of the campsite.
We would come again and again!

auto-translated: Road relatively noisy. No fixed plots, partly quite uneven. Located directly on the river, with swimming opportunity. Operators very nice. Electricity connections partly quite far away. 10' by car to Lom. There are hiking possibilities.

auto-translated: The best campsite in the Lom area. Excellent sanitary facilities, friendly manager. Lom (over 7 km) is good to do by bike (little difference in altitude).

auto-translated: Extremely friendly operators and very clean sanitary facilities. Cute, clean cabins and small kiosk.

auto-translated: Nice staff, sanitary facilities were good. Free choice of place.

auto-translated: Beautiful campsite, with good and clean sanitary facilities. Very friendly and helpful owners. Campsite is spotless and well maintained. Child friendly. Wonderful campsite to spend a few days.

auto-translated: Beautiful family camp site with its own beach on the Ottaelva River. Very flat and cold, but also a little bit muddy. But small sandy beach available. Very nice places for campers and small camping busses between trees and bushes directly near the beach. Other, larger pitches in the centre of the campsite on meadows or under pines. Scullery nicely furnished, but quickly full at peak times. Showers (5 NOK, 10 NOK) and toilets very clean. WLAN only in front area and very lame. Many family tents from the Netherlands and Germany. Place always well visited. Price without electricity (2019): 190 NOK, 5 or 10 NOK showers. Good starting point for Lom (stave church), gerangers, Trollstigen and walks in the mountains, which can be reached via road 51 or 55 in southern direction.

auto-translated: A pretty campsite right by the water with very friendly operators. It's easy to see how lovingly everything is taken care of here. Sanitary facilities and kitchen very clean - but also quite small, so that it was sometimes full. Especially when it rained there was a big crowd in the kitchen, where there are only 2 tables & 8 chairs.
The prices are top! We were 2 persons in a tent: 190 NKRnight. 8 minutes showering 10 NKR. So far the cheapest place of our trip, and also one of the most beautiful.
Activities: Canoeing (directly at the place), you can also go well to the tourist center Lom. There is a stave church, a stone museum (great recommendation), various hiking routes and much more.

auto-translated: This is how I imagine camping. clean sanitary facilities, individual pitches, everything very natural. Very friendly and helpful operators. There is a lot to discover in the surrounding area. Here I have everything that pleases my camper heart. I don't need any animation and no fancy picnics and no parking space like at home in the garden.

This is a realy a very good campsite with so kind management. Everything is well thought if and very clean. Spots are free and with a lot of pricacy. And the surroundings are beautifull. And very good for visiting Lom

Great Camping! We stayed for 1 night in a cabin. The Cabin was really clean. Really good cabins!

auto-translated: Free choice of parking space for camper vans partly directly with view on the beautiful lake or in the wooded area under pine trees. Sanitary facilities are very clean and well maintained but for men only three seated WC (no urinal) and two showers for the whole place. When there was a rush no warm water anymore (in the evening, we had a whole busload). Place nice familiar with very nice operators, good playground and small sandy beach. The distance to the street decreases the coarsest street noise. All in all one of the best places on our tour so far.

auto-translated: I'm going to join the previous speakers! I came all the way here and would not be disappointed. It's only for one night, but the price is perfect!

auto-translated: Goods with a 3 man tent for one night there, at the beginning of of July were enough places to choose, with shading (tree) or without, even at the front of the very quiet flowing river possible, swimming for children very shallow river bed and small pebble beach, electricity everywhere available, ground good for pegs, sanitary facilities are older but impeccably in good condition and always clean, friendly staff, in sum a top place! Lg Gerti & Robert

auto-translated: A wonderful place for nature lovers who do not need frills. topp in this super-dry summer '18: Pitches under trees possible and a super great river bath. Sanitary are great, because the retro design does not bother. Everyone would find a place to their liking - with enough space for retreat - which can not be said of the other campsites in Lom

auto-translated: Right on the water with lots of trees and enough privacy. Sanitary facility older, but well maintained and clean. Road is unfortunately clearly audible.

auto-translated: small but fine campsite right on the lake. Sanitary are a bit older, but clean and in good condition. Kitchen with cooking facilities, wifi. would come again!

auto-translated: Very nice, at the beginning of August not overflowing campsite directly at the Ottaeälven.
There is even a sandy beach where children can bathe in a quiet spot of the älv or build sand castles in the sand.
Great little playground right by the main building.
Can be fished in the Alv and fishing for children up to 20 years for free!
We stayed in a beautiful cabin with veranda and four beds for two days and loved the beautiful, simple, clean and quiet cottage.
For 400 NKR per night a real bargain!
The toilets are older, but clean and tidy, showers cost 5 NKR for 4 minutes or 10 NKR for 8 minutes .. really great!
Free wifi!
Friendly and helpful staff.
I can only recommend!

auto-translated: The place itself is very nice, with a small beach and pretty pitches only the sanitary facilities are nothing special (not great but not bad). Staff was very friendly. There is a kitchen that is big enough compared to other places to cook in it. And where you can sit and eat. Overall, nice here.

auto-translated: We came here to paddle and rented a canoe for two hours. The owner was super nice and the canoe rental was easy. Very nice, idyllic place with many parking possibilities, but unfortunately directly at the street. Sanitary facilities average. Nice playground. Suitable for swimming, with sandy beach.

auto-translated: Nice operators. Nice situated at the lake and with a lot of trees - small private niches
- Camp fireworthy.
Street unfortunately very very loud and the sanitation really not recommendable .. clean but very very simple (stainless steel basin for washing hands , PVC floor everywhere)

auto-translated: Small very beautifully situated square (by the river)
Very good facilities
Very friendly and helpful operators (got perfect hiking tips)

auto-translated: Very nice campsite. Warm cottage with fridge and hotplate for 360 crowns. Campsite for 2 people for 180 crowns. Shower for 3,5 minutes for 5 crowns, 10 crowns for 8 minutes.

auto-translated: Small, nice place with many contemplative pitches. Directly at the water. Mosquitoes!
