Camping Prices
Each spot / pitch has its own price based on what it is PRIMARILY intended for. For example, you can pitch a tent on a caravan spot on grass, but you will then pay the price for a caravan. It is cheaper to stay in a tent on a spot ONLY intended for tents. Caravans can park in motorhome spots and pay a little less, but you cannot expect to be able to set up an awning/side tent, and motorhomes can park in caravan spots but must pay a bit more. Spots with extra length and width are more expensive. Motorhomes under 7 meters pay less than those over 7 meters, as long as you choose a spot with a maximum length under 7 meters. The popular spots on "The Triangle" right by the reception and playground are often more expensive than other spots.
In addition, there are large seasonal price variations – low season weekday, low season weekend, shoulder season, and high season – so it's best to check the prices per spot on this website to get a clear answer on the price.
This is a rough guide to pricing but it changes from year to year. We aim to open reservations for next summer no later than Christmas the year before.
Booking
We prefer online bookings through this website, and we highly recommend the map booking! This way you can easily choose your spot, make changes to your booking after it has been made, and receive a 100% refund if you cancel at least 1 week before arrival (camping) or 2 weeks (cabins and apartments). Check the pitch description carefully - if your vehicle length or width is greater than the spot you've booked, you risk being turned away without a refund (though we will of course do everything we can to find you an alternative spot!).
You can also contact us during our opening hours at 90026326 or send an email to post@camplyngdal.no.

A late check-out may result in a penalty charge of an additional day.
Arrival
If you have booked online, you will receive a welcome email the day before arrival with a code to the gate barrier. You are already checked in and can drive straight to your spot, though we gladly welcome you in the reception if you have any questions!
If you book online while standing outside the camping and the reception is temporarily closed, you will receive a booking confirmation email, which also includes the code to the gate barrier, so that you can enter. About 10 minutes later you will receive a welcome email with parking instructions.
If you book a cabin or apartment you must drop by the reception to receive the key. Call the on-duty phone upon arrival if the reception is closed.
Parking and Positioning
You will receive instructions on how to position your vehicle / tent in your particular pitch in the welcome email, or ask in the reception. On almost all pitches you should park on the border with a neighboring pitch and keep a 3-meter distance (due to fire regulations) to the pitch on the other side. A car (that no one sleeps in) can be parked in this space, but an awning/side tent cannot be set up in this 3 meter fire distance. It is not particularly important if you park face in or face out, what IS obligatory is keeping 3m distance to the correct side. For sunscreens the allowed safety distance from your neighbour is 1,5m.
Camp Lyngdal has a large parking lot just outside the camping along Stamsøyveien. You must park here if you are staying in the forest during the high season or if you come with more than 1 car. Most caravan and tent pitches include a 3 meter space for a car on the pitch itself, but you can park outside the camping if you want more space!
WiFi
We have free WiFi on the site. This is not intended for streaming or heavy downloads. If you are staying in the forest, we cannot guarantee coverage.
Sanitary facilities
We have 3 sanitary buildings at the camping. Building A (reception), Building B (apartments), and Building C (by the ball court). All facilities have toilets and showers. We ask you to show consideration to all campers and leave the shower and toilet clean and in a good condition.
Washing and drying clothes can be done by using 4x10 NOK coins in Building A and 3x10 NOK coins Building C.
Coins for laundry can be obtained from the reception with a card payment.
Camping Toilet and Greywater Disposal
Camping toilets can be emptied in the reception building in a room with an entrance from the road. Greywater can be emptied at a disposal station outside, just past the camping along Stamsøyveien.
Communal Kitchen
Building C and the cabin by the barbecue, next to the mini-golf, have guest kitchens. Dishwashing can be done in buildings A and C, as well as in the guest kitchen.
Defibrillator
The defibrillator is hanging on the wall of the reception building (Building A) between the women's and men's toilets.
Adapter
An adapter for power poles for caravans/motorhomes must be brought! It can be purchased at Biltema in Rom, 10 minutes away by car.
Electric car charging
Electric car charging is NOT permitted. Charging an electric car may result in expulsion. Directly across from the camping is the "Lade i Norge" Charging Station, Stamsøyveien 2. There is also a Tesla Supercharger station up at the shopping park in Rom.
Driving on the site
Max. 10 kph!
There are many people on our site, and many children, so we ask you to be extra careful and considerate when driving a car/e-scooter/bicycle within the camping area.
No driving between 23:00 and 07:00.
Security
We have cameras filming all cars that enter and exit the camping. There are cameras in the reception/kiosk, the main playground, the garbage disposal area, and the activity room.
Dogs
We are a dog-friendly camping and have many four-legged residents. Dogs must be kept on a leash in the whole area, and we ask everyone to be diligent in cleaning up after their dog. Dogs are allowed in cabins. We also have 2 dog-friendly apartments (Apartment 1 and 2), where dogs must be kept in a cage. If you bring a dog to a cabin/apartment, you must pay the pet add-on when making a reservation.
Alcohol
We do not sell alcohol.
Playground rules
It is the parents' responsibility to supervise children in the playground. If anyone hits, spits or kicks, they will be expelled from the playground.
Trampoline rules: Max two people without shoes, max 1 minute each when there is a queue.
Trash
There is a garbage disposal area near the motorhome parking. Thank you for keeping the campsite clean and for recycling.
