Camping Hana is a small, family-run campsite in the village of Veverská Bityska in South Moravia. It is situated on a triangle of land bounded by the River Svratka and the old millrace. The campground has 55 touring pitches, all with electric hook-up points available. There is a well-stocked buffet/café about 100 meters from the campground entrance where refreshments can be purchased. Hana Musilova runs the site to very high standards, speaks excellent English and Dutch and provides lots of local information.

Camping Country is a well cared for and attractively landscaped site close to the historical town of Znojmo. It is a rural location, in a wine-growing region close to a national park, and with its small wine cellar, wine tasting evenings, small stables and riding school, barbecue and campfire areas, is an ideal site for a longer stay. Visitors will enjoy the cycling routes which have been set out in the national park. Camping Country has 50 pitches (all for touring units), 30 with 16A electricity, on two fields – one behind the main house taking six or eight units, the other one larger with a gravel access road.

This family site in Bojkovice, close to the Slovak border and with views across the valley to the white castle Novy Svetlo, is attractive and well managed. It is on hilly ground with tarmac access roads connecting the 40 pitches. These are all for touring units on grassy fields taking six or eight units. Mostly on terraces in the shade of mature birch trees, all have 6A electricity. A footpath connects the three toilet blocks which offer a more than adequate provision. It also leads to the bar/restaurant and the centrally located outdoor pool. There is no entertainment programme, but we were told that children and teenagers enjoy their stay here. At the reception you may borrow a map with extensive tourist information about the local area.

Pávov is a small site close to the town of Jihlava and just a few hundred metres from the E50 motorway running from Prague to Brno. The site belongs to a hotel and is on a little lake where boating, windsurfing and swimming are possible. Only really suitable as a transit site, Pávov has 120 pitches on grass (all for touring units), off one circular tarmac and gravel access road. Low hedges separate the pitches on the central field and around many pitches have electricity. Day visitors as well as campsite and hotel guests use the lake. Being so close to the motorway, Pávov makes a useful stopover for a night, and if you don’t mind the very basic facilities. No English is spoken.

Camping Bozanov is located in a very wooded area among the mountains of the Broumovské Steny, excellent for hiking and cycling. The marked trails lead through the beautiful hilly landscape with fields and extensive forests. Nearby is the Adrspach National Park with its bizarre and rugged sandstone rock formations and azure lake surrounded by steep cliffs.

This small, well cared for site, owned and run by a Dutch family for 20 years, is in the part of the Czech Republic said to enjoy the most sun. De Bongerd has 65 pitches, all for touring units, with 6A electricity, in two fields with pitching off a gravel access road. One field runs down towards the former farmhouse and pitches here are slightly sloping, although some terraces have been created. Pitches on the second field are arranged on level ground in a circular arrangement. The site is attractively landscaped with young pine trees and colourful flowers. Many activities for children are organised such as film nights, excursions, walks through the site’s forest and communal campfires. Trips to the historic cities of Brno and Olomouc are organised, and there is an extensive library.
