Nice to have some feedback on German sites. We were in Germany earlier in the year and had a great time. As you have experienced the Germans seem to be light years behind in the acceptance of credit cards but of course it is a fairly simple proceedure to use ATM's. When we first went to Germany in 1992 the only place you could use CC was in some petrol sations but it is gradually becoming more wide spread. The same was true of Austria.

I was based in Germany with the forces and often used German sites. Have found that most of the Knaus Camping have excellent facilities....have been to a site at Bad Durkheim on route to Lake Garda ...was lovely under vine groves ...then at Wurzburg...visited Rothenburg ...definately worth visiting. Overall I would go back to Germany but with only a 9 year old boy...we find that there are no other English kids for him to play with.....maybe a few more years and we will be be back..

hi

what was the name of the site you stayed in?  We camped in Saarsburg this year and are looking to return to Germany next year and the site sounds great.

thanks

I have thought about a holiday to in Germany, I have a friend who lives in Ingolstadt which is near Munich. Funnily enough she is a travel agent and I have never thought of asking her about campsites over there. As a matter of interest, where did you cross from/to and how far was the journey?.
