Expensive, customer unfriendly and rigid organization.
On the 15 to the 16 May 2024 I stayed one night at Glyttinge-Linköping campsite. There I had to pay 375 SEK for a tent with electricity. I thought it was a lot but only had one experience a day before with a Swedish campsite for 300 SEK so I didn't know what was fair! On my return trip I was also at... a First Camp campsite near Malmö, there I paid 221 SEK. That seemed a more fair price for the same kind of place (1 person in a small car without a tent).

Because I thought it was strange and expensive, I sent First Camp an e-mail and asked for an explanation. They responded only after 11 days with this sentence:

"Our prices are dynamic, providing flexibility similar to that seen in the rail and airline industries. This means that prices are adjusted according to demand. To help you find the best prices, we have our Low Price Calendar, where you can explore our destinations with just your desired price ranges."

Then I took another look at Glyttinge-Linköping's site myself and it showed that here too and place cost 221 SEK! Strange that I was then charged 375 SEK? Almost 70% more expensive than Malmö, unbelievable!!!
I sent an e-mail asking for a refund of what I thought was an overpayment. After 2 days I received the same answer as the first time!

In response to a third mail I received the answer that I accepted the booking.
So no compensation at all.

Unfortunately for me a bad experience with First Camp as an organization and the Glyttinge-Linköping campsite.

WARNING for others:

PAY ATTENTION WHEN REGISTERING OR BOOKING AT FIRST CAMP Glyttinge- Linköping!

Viewing of the place only against prepayment. If you don't like it and don't want to stay overnight, you still won't get your money back.
Dubious
It was only possible to view the pitches after paying in advance (1 overnight stay). Unfortunately, we agreed to this. The pitches for tents are in the far corner at the edge of the forest. The edge of the forest was teeming with ants (large wood ants). The electricity connection was over 30m away (who... has such a long cable in their tent luggage).
The receptionist supposedly knew nothing about these problems. We didn't want to stay at this campsite (with a baby and without electricity but with lots of ants in the tent).
They didn't want to give us our money back. The receptionist referred us to the Firstcamping website (this was the only way to get our money back via a complaint). We drove to the next hotel (baby and evening).

Back home again:
We were told by the receptionist at the time that we could only claim our money back via the online complaint, because clarification at reception was not possible. However, after we checked the Firstcamp homepage, it referred us to the reception of the respective campsite.

The receptionist at the campsite should have known this. So she lied to us. As did the supervisor who was consulted by telephone! Is this the method at Firstcamping?

In Germany, this is a criminal offense (fraud). We are going to hire a lawyer.

Not suitable for tourists.
No room for tourists!
Nice place with decent sanitary facilities. However, in mid-May, when we visited this site, it was 80% populated by people with a migration background or Sinti and Roma who lived in the huts. Some Swedes who lived there in their caravans hid in their caravans or attached steel bars to the caravan door... when they went to the toilet. We, as paying tourists, were allocated a place right next to this spectacle, although there would have been enough places further away. Extremely unpleasant atmosphere. Not suitable for paying tourists on vacation.

Great place to discover Linköping (definitely gamle Linköping) and the Göta Canal. The pitches are quite large, quiet and family-friendly. The sanitary facilities are clean and tidy. The reception is manned in summer. There are always staff on the site. Unfortunately the lake is missing. Children's playground for the little ones, wifi possible for the older ones. Lounge and kitchen and washing up area ok.

Super funny entrance, in the low season you have to phone, then a nice lady tells you a code and everything goes automatically. The Swedes have a godlike trust, we could have left without paying, nobody knew our name, of course we didn't, we paid in the morning. Unfortunately there is one minus, not so clean but usable.
