Detailed Reviews
We stayed here for 6 nights in July. We loved it. We are a family with 2 children who are 4 and 7. It is close enough to Salzburg to cycle there easily, even with young children. It is a very well looked after site, and the family who run it are kind, approachable, speak English (if you need it) and are helpful. The site is quite busy, with many people leaving as they are moving on after only one night - this is the only negative I could think of, and it isn't the owners fault. despite relative business you feel very safe and you wouldn't know you were so close in to the city. The pool is great, and there is the option of walking for pizza or a supermarket also in walkable distance. you can also bus it into the city very easily. All of this is communicated v clearly on check in.
We found it very cheap. We were camping in large tent, with no electricity. The prices are clear and are mapped out on a sheet for all to see.

This camping is green and well taken care off, a perfect quiet place to visit the great city of Salzburg. The bike ride to the city is so nice and it's only 5km. A very kind family that runs the campsite! Highly recommanded!

whatever dont waste your money on this, after three years travelling europe this is the most expensive ever at forty seven euros fifty cents a night, and what for, got a small swimming pool. never seen pitches that small, can hear guys snoring both sides and worse when they are awake.also all pitches are overhung by trees, they say they have a cafetieria but its not, serves breakfast of two rolls with jamm and butter, thats it but it is somewhere to sit if you want. showers you cant swing a cat in, and have to hold the button in all the time as it turns off straight away plus no mop for the floor and its slippery when wet, obvs lol, apparantly the electric is for fridge and lights only, they tell you no more, its on the rules, no tele or cooking or anything else from what we can make out all quiet after ten till seven, try telling the kids that and ppl who love slam their van doors. never never again.
good points, bus stop just down the road, short trip into town. pizza restaurant five mins away and very good. kids love the pool, staff very helpful and lots of literature in five different languages.

Letchworth Garden City, United Kingdom22 contributions28 helpful votesThis site could be so good but it falls short. Of course you pay for where a site is but in six weeks of travelling this was the most expensive and, in terms of situation (love Salzburg though we did) it cannot compare with our cheaper lakeside pitch on Lake Garda, our cheaper waterside pitch in Venice, our cheaper site at Croatia’s Plitvice Lakes or our cheaper Lake Bled site. And ALL of those cheaper sites, unlike Nord Sam, provided reliable hot water, frequently cleaned and spotless shower and toilet facilities, none of which we ever had to queue for, hand soap in the toilets (really, not to have that is both mean and a health risk) and took credit card payment. None of them shared Nord Sam’s mean spirited instruction that their electricity was only for lighting and refrigerators. In your dreams - I paid enough to charge an e-car with it, though I didn’t, of course!
Twice I got a ticket to report to reception because I hadn’t displayed my yellow number visibly over night. Where? The blinds were closed on the motorhome and they had my registration, knew where I was pitched and if I hung it outside it could have been taken and used by someone else. Petty. How about numbering the pitches. And why lose sleep over this when rules about quiet until and after certain times were ignored?
It just all felt tired, this is how we’ve always done it, and had nothing like the attention to cleanliness and quality that ALL the other sites we have used did. We were greeted on arrival really warmly by the guy who looked after the lovely gardens but perhaps more time and attention should be paid to critical elements of a caravan and motorhome site. I accept that they will fill up easily year on year but so will all the others we visited and they were so much better. And cheaper by a margin.

Room Tip: Get a Salzburg visitor card. Amazing. And make sure you’ve got cash.

Location of site is good. You can take a bike ride to Salzburg. Takes about 20 minutes. Theres is a small pool at the campsite you can use.
The campsites are quite small and close to neighbours. Many of them are separated with small green barriers which you can overlook.
You can barely manage to have caravan+tent+car at the site. If you do there is no place left for a table outside.
You can buy wi-fi access at the reception and buy bread for breakfast.
The sanitair (wc, shower) was a bit dissapointing.
Lack of toiletpaper in toilets.
Not so clean as one could have wished.
Several of the showers did not work properly. Very little water and cold. In most showers you had to leave cloths and towels outside.
I could only find two showers at our visit who worked properly.
It was ok but I would not recommend it.

We had thought it would be two days but we ended up being four. A really great location to explore the sights of Salzburg on your own or by joining group trips through the campsite office. By bike directly to the old town in 10 minutes or by the bus next to the campsite gate. Everything you need for the caravan was found in a very quiet campsite. A small terrace where you can marvel at the world while watching the alpine landscape. In addition, there is a nice little pizzeria nearby, where you can order a snack with drinks until late at night. Thanks to Family Lex we had a really nice four days and we will definitely be back when we are in the area. Salzburg was still far from being seen.

We booked for 4 days. We drove from Denmark but had problems with our car on the way and was late. We called them for 2 hours, we wrote email but no reply. 1 hour before arrival they finally picked up the phone and told us that the place was no longer free.
What a LOUSY CAMPSITE.
We booked 5 days before arrival, they knew we where coming all the way from Denmark, so the chance that we was not coming was very little. Any other campsite would provide the good service to call before giving the place away to other people or at least answer there phone when there customers try to contact them !
My advice is to stay away from camping Nord-Sam there are many beautyfull campsite in Salzburg and in the surrounding that have frindly owners and staff who knows hove to provide good service for there guests.

The staff were very welcoming on our arrival. Pitches are quite small and close together but separated by bushes. The pool was great and kids loved it. The location of this campsite is fantastic for sightseeing around Saltzburg and bus tickets can be purchased at reception.
This campsite in my opinion is over priced. The facilities are dated and a little run down, also not particularly clean. This was the most expensive campsite of our holiday and definitely was not worth the price. If you want the proximity to Saltzburg then this site is perfect, but if you want clean facilities, hot showers and value for money, look elsewhere!

Worst nightmare ever!
We booked this campingsite for 4 nights to explore Salzburg. We drove all night from Denmark to be there before 15:00 (that’s when the booking can be cancelled) on our way we got a problem with our car which meant we would arrive 2 hours later, we rang to the campingsite from 12:00 to inform them that we were later, but they didn’t pich up the phone and got an answerringmachine, we write an email to them and kept trying to ring untill we spoke to someone who said that the place was given to somebody else and the camping was booked. So what was supposed to be a good vacation ended in a nightmare, we called all evening and found out that all other campingsites were booked and we ended up, driving back and find a hotel to stay the night. What a LOUSY service, they could have called us, knowing we drive from DK and booked several days before giving our place to others. When this is their service level what else will be bad at this camping site. We will put this message in all Danish campingsites to warn others, so please think twice if you want to book here!

Advertised as a 4 star campsite, in its day maybe, but not today. We stayed in a better 2 star near Dijon on a few days before.
One toilet block for the whole camp, the showers were look warm at best, the shower changing area was very small, your clothes might get wet from the water. Suggest a plastic bag. The showers and wash hand basins had hairs in them. Cleaning is done, by and outsider and not by camping staff / owners. So heart isn’t in it.
Overprice at the shop and pitch (bank charge catch).
Shop: and I know they have to make a profit but (same items) a packet of ham €4.20, Despar and Lidl €2.40. An ice cream €4, shops in town €2. Chocolate bar €2, local shop €1.
Pitch: Tent, two people and electric €49 per night. Total should have been €98. But informed they have bank charges to pay so and extra €15 has been added. Found that very steep and underhand, it’s there bank not mine.
