Nice location by a river, but not deep enough to take a dip.
Not many sandflies so nice to sit outside. Lots of space at 5.30 when we arrived. Picnic benches scattered around. Just off the road so some traffic noise.

Elite spot for stargazing — proper dark-sky vibes, zero light pollution, maximum existential thoughts.
There are loads more spots further back with facilities (we admired from a distance, didn’t fully investigate).
Also saw people casually panning for gold in the river. No idea how profitable that is, but respect the commitment.
Spacious, peaceful, slightly wild. 8/10 cosmic countryside energy.

Huge grassy field in a good spot for star gazing due to no artificial lights allowed.
Only one portaloo but i never had to wait long and it stayed clean enough

A very large grass area surrounded by trees.
Nice place to stop with maybe a hundred places for vans and campers. No water, just two smelly drop toilets.
