Galløkken camping is a site that fully encapsulates the experience of family camping. It is owned, run and kept to perfection by Gerda, who likely is the most wonderful woman in all of Bornholm.||||Sure, you'll find more modern facilities at other grounds, and Galløkken doesn't have a swimming pool or amazing views of the ocean; but the entire atmosphere is welcoming, warm and relaxed. Who needs a pool anyway, when one of the nicest beaches on all of Bornholm is 30 seconds walking time away. Yes, that is 30 seconds (Btw, beware the waves when the Ystad ferry enters the harbor slightly north of the beach; the ferry comes along the coast at over 40 knots, and makes HUGE waves.).||||You pitch your tent (or park your van) where you want, the kiosk is more than sufficiently stocked, and the communal areas are very clean and nice. Gerda lights a couple of bonfires every night during the season, and sits around and mingles with the guests. ||||All in all, Galløkken is probably the place our family felt most relaxed and welcome during our entire three weeks on Bornholm: we intended to stay the night and leave on our bikes the next morning -- yet we stayed on Galløkken for almost a week in total. Perfect surrondings, perfect host, perfect play area for the kids, and due to the atmosphere (I believe,) perfectly happy and smiling people all around.
