The campsite today
We, Inge and Karsten, took over Blokhus By Camping in December 2014, and we are only the 5th owners in the campsite’s long history. We are both in our late-50s and, before we took over this lovely campsite, were lessees at another campsite in Denmark.
When we own and operate our own campsite today, it is a dream come true.
In December 2017, we expanded our dream with another campsite. We bought and took over Blokhus Klit Camping. The former Rimmensgaard Camping. We are in the process of transforming this campsite so that you can spend the night right in the middle of wild nature. The campsite is now called Blokhus Natur Camping and is moving forward at full speed. In 2021, the site was nominated both by ADAC and the Danish Camping Awards for the way we work with sustainability and nature restoration. See much more about the campsite here: Blokhus Natur Camping.
But there are only 24 hours per day to both work and live, so today Blokhus Natur Camping has a new set of camp chiefs, Mia and Peter, who are both skilled and a perfect match to run and continue to develop the campsite.
Our primary purpose with overnight offers on camping and in nature is to create the framework, and then our guests have to fill in the content themselves.
Happy and smiling customers – make us happy and smiling.
Smile – it’s infectious!
The story
Today Blokhus By Camping stands out as one of Denmark’s best campsites. Yes, it’s nice to say that our campsite is among the country’s best. But we think it is because:
For the start of the 2026 season, the two beach houses have been replaced by a room house. The beach houses have been our signature for several years, but they became a little too small for the demand of our guests. So they have been given to new owners who are looking forward to using the two cozy houses.
The room house is similar to our three beautiful family cabins, this house is just a little wider and longer, so that the three rooms have a little more space and volume than the beach houses could offer. It is still very simple and practical accommodation. The rooms do not have a kitchen, toilet and bathroom – on the other hand, they are located very close to the facilities. An extra plus is that they now each have their own terrace and shelter, so there is now also room to sit outside – sheltered from the west wind.
In the spring of 2025, we were able to welcome you into our brand new and modern facilities:
Activity area and covered swimming pool with changing facilities.
The activity area is the former asphalt soccer field, which in collaboration with Blåbjerg Leg has undergone a huge transformation.
The swimming pool has always been outdoors with all that cold winds and cold water entail. With the beautiful cover, we can now offer warm water as early as May and all the way until September. You can sit in shelter from the weather and still have a good experience in the pool. As early as May, the temperature in the water will be around 25 degrees – and that’s without using any energy for heating. The sun and the earth ensure that the water is warm and stays warm.
In the summer of 2018, we had the large service building painted, so that it has now changed from brown bricks to water-washed white. In June 2018, we received three large family cabins. Each cabin is 30 square meters and is furnished with its own kitchen and living room in one, bathroom, a bunk room and a bedroom with a 3/4 bed. The sofa in the living room is a sofa bed. The cabins therefore have 5 sleeping places. The three family cabins are winter-insulated and can also, by agreement, be rented in the winter.
In May 2018, we were ready to start renting out our two Beach Houses. The beach houses are located on the campsite, and are copies of the small and charming houses you see on the beach at Blokhus during the summer period. Our two beach houses are recycled. Previously we had a toilet building/shed standing on the eastern part of the site. It is this shed that we sawed in half, rebuilt and arranged for accommodation.
In the winter of 2016/2017, the common room was water-scrubbed and painted. In the following spring, the entire large service building was water-washed externally. Later we took over furniture from a colleague’s campsite and from a café in Nr. Voruper. The old furniture was sold and the total amount went to the fight against cancer. This winter we also converted two of our small cabins into toilet houses. One hut was moved to the eastern part of the campsite and became the replacement for the former toilet shed.
In the spring of 2016, we established a new driveway with the help of Jammerbugt Municipality. Where previously it could cause traffic chaos when there was a queue at check-in, there is now the possibility to make an up-march along the campsite. It gives a completely different calm in the reception and not least in the traffic to and from Blokhus.
In 2016, the old gas boiler was also replaced with a new and more reliable boiler. Tiles were replaced in the areas around the service building. The rental bathrooms were painted and freshened up. The verandas of all the cabins were painted. Some cabins were painted inside.
In the spring of 2015, all the cabins got a new kitchen and part of the electricity stands out on the campsite were renovated. Before the start of the 2015 season, we also managed to cut down some of the old conifers. They had grown too tall and were starting to look wilted and bad. Now that the leaves are on the trees, the oak and beech get plenty of light and air to look good. During the coming winters, several of the old trees will be removed and new ones will be planted. Blokhus By Camping must continue to be a “forest” site with shelter for most people.
During the autumn and winter of 2015/2016, part of the units were renovated, so that several units were given a more contemporary size.
The swimming pool was given a “make-over” in the spring of 2015 and now looks nice and inviting – both for those who want to swim in the pool and for those who want to sunbathe on the deck chairs.
For the 2015 high season, we were also ready to open an additional section with showers/toilets. For some years, the bath/toilet section by the pool had been unused. We had years of dirt scrubbed away and a heat source installed. So now there is hot water again in the showers in the “Yellow Department”.
In the same year, the mini golf course was adapted so that it is significantly more play-friendly for everyone. We used the logs, from the trees we felled in the winter, for fairways and borders between the 9 holes of the miniature golf course. In 2020, however, we replaced these gangs and demarcations with fieldstones, as the trunks had deteriorated after several years of exposure to wind and weather.
In 2008, new kitchen facilities were established, so that today there are modern facilities in both kitchen and bathroom.
In 2005/2006, the toilet and shower facilities were rebuilt so that they correspond to the requirements for a 5-star campsite.
