Campsites in Black Forest.
following our very enjoyable motorhome tour down the river Rhine a couple of years ago, we have decided to have a look at the Black Forest. We have found a site called Belchenblick, which at first glance looked fine, but some of the reviews gave it a real pasting, so we are having second thoughts. Any recommendations for nice sites would be welcomed.

@greylag We have stayed there a couple of times in the past and quite liked it. Like many German sites they have a long lunch break so there is no early checking in so probably not before 2.30/3.00pm in the afternoon. I don't recall the pitches being particularly large. This might have changed, some years we last stayed, there was an indoor pool and shop. Municipal Swimming Complex next door. Easy walk into the delightful local town of Stufen. Railway station a short distance from the site, just local trains. Very old site report here

We've also used Belchenblick in the past and have found it fine. However, I reckon it's been 15 years since we've stayed here, and things change ! 😀 Another site we used was Kirchzarten.... also fine... but that was around 20 years ago... 🤣🤣
I remember one visit to Kirchzarten.. in our trailer tent days.... it must have been in tbe late '80's/ early '90's... We'd pitched up and noticed on the other side of the site there was someone with exactly the same trailer tent as ours. We went to investigate and it turned out to be the Head of Maths from the school I was teaching at. ...Then a few days later, a pupil from the same school and his family turned up in a Eurocamp tent. They say things happen in 3's..... One day we had a ride out to Titisee and were looking in a cuckoo clock shop, when suddenly I had a tap on the shoulder, followed by the words... 'Hello Sir...!' ...You just couldn't make it up!!
We often found our sites from Alan Rogers Good Camps Guide (now owned by the Club)... may be worth a look...

A few years ago, we stayed at Camping Weiherhof on the southern shore of Lake Titisee. The access road is a bit steep but there is a bus service into Titisee itself or you can catch one of the regular ferryboats from the nearby landing to arrive at the town in style.

We were at Belchenblick in September , its fine ( the new toilet/ shower rooms in the main building are fantastic, the older ones definitely 'rustic' but plenty hot water and kept clean ).
Staufen is a really lovely little town and its easy to get the train into Freiburg ( definitely do for the market ) . We'd go back there.

Greylag, with a Motorhome you are not restricted to campsites in the way that caravanners are. The campsites recommended so far are no doubt excellent, but if I had a Motorhome I wouldn’t go to any of them. I would seek out pretty little towns, less well known lakes, and the high level driving route and make use of all the Stellplatz stopovers. Fantastic modern toilet blocks would not be my main touring attraction.
