Supermarket in a Stroll: Shopping 400 Metres from Your Pitch

When you’re camping, easy access to food can make or break the day. With a supermarket 400 metres from your pitch at Camping De Regenboog, stocking up is a simple stroll—not a logistics exercise. In this guide, you’ll learn how to pair quick supermarket runs with our daily bread-roll service and flexible bistro schedule, plus practical tips for meal planning, family convenience, and making the most of your stay in Šluknov.

How far is the nearest supermarket?

The nearest supermarket is roughly 400 metres from Camping De Regenboog. That short, foot-friendly distance means you can pick up essentials between activities without rearranging your day.

• Location advantage: Šluknov train station is approximately 700 metres away—about a 10-minute walk—so day trips and restocks stay simple and car-light.
• On-site convenience: Free on-site parking and free WiFi keep things easy when you’re planning your next shop or excursion.

What to pick up on a quick run

A nearby store makes self-catering smooth and flexible. While selections vary by shop, you’ll typically find:

• Breakfast basics: milk, yoghurt, cereal, fruit, spreads
• Pantry staples: pasta, rice, sauces, herbs, cooking oil
• Fresh ingredients: seasonal produce, bread, eggs
• Drinks and snacks: water, juices, trail mixes, treats
• Toiletries and baby items: soap, diapers, wipes, personal care

Tip: Bring a reusable shopping bag for a lighter, hands-free walk back to your pitch or cabin.

Pairing off-site shopping with on-site food options

A short supermarket stroll complements the on-site offerings so you never run short on time—or flavour.

Daily bread-roll service

• Fresh rolls are available through our on-site bread-roll service and can be collected each morning.
• Combine with supermarket staples (e.g., fruit or spreads) for a quick, budget-friendly breakfast.

Bistro schedule (high and low season)

• High season: Our small bistro is open nearly every day.
• Low season: Open about 1–2 times per week.

Use the bistro for easy lunches or dinners on lighter cooking days, and stock the rest from the supermarket for flexible self-catering.

Self-catering in your accommodation

• Woodland cabins include a private kitchen area and each has its own washing machine—ideal for longer stays and family routines.
• Safari Basic tents are equipped so you can cook in your own tent—great for simple meals and outdoor dining.

Campfire and grilling: know the rules before you shop

If you’re planning to cook outdoors, please note:

• Campfires are not permitted on individual pitches.
• A designated communal campfire area is available for open fires.
• Grilling on a pitch is allowed provided the grass is not burned or damaged.
• Grills are not supplied by the campsite, so plan accordingly.

At-a-glance: On-site vs. off-site food options

Plan by season: make the most of your meals

2026 opening window and high season

• Open for the 2026 season: 24 April to 11 September.
• High season: 8 July 2026 to 26 August 2026. All other open dates are low season.

In high season, the bistro runs nearly every day and a Dutch-speaking recreation team hosts varied activities for kids, teens, and families—perfect for timing a quick supermarket dash while the kids are entertained. In low season, plan simple dinners on bistro off-days and lean on the bread service for fuss-free mornings.

Family- and eco-friendly convenience

• Walk-first setup: With the supermarket 400 metres away and the train station about 10 minutes on foot, short errands and day trips are easy without starting the car.
• EV drivers: Two on-site charging stations work with a standard charging card. Mention your electric car during booking so the team can plan accordingly.
• Laundry made easy: Washing machines are available in the main sanitary building, and woodland cabins each include a private washing machine—handy for longer stays or hiking-heavy days.
• Playtime, then dinnertime: Several playgrounds are spread across the campsite, and indoor/outdoor play areas and a games room add options when you’re juggling a shop and family schedules.

Use the campsite’s mobile app during your stay for:

Practical takeaways for effortless shopping

1. Build a simple meal plan. Alternate between bistro nights and easy self-cooked meals so you can keep supermarket runs short and focused.
2. Pre-order bread. Use the bread-roll service to anchor breakfast, then top up fruit, dairy, and spreads from the supermarket.
3. Think in “micro-shops.” With the store 400 metres away, shop little and often—carry less and keep food fresh.
4. Pack a soft cooler. A small insulated bag makes the stroll back easier on warm days.
5. Time it with activities. Check the app’s weekly programme and walk over while the kids enjoy a playground or recreation-team activity in high season.
6. Prep for grilling—within the rules. Bring your own grill, protect the grass, and use the communal campfire area for open fires.
7. Charge smart. If you drive out for bigger errands, return to on-site EV chargers and plug in with your standard charging card.
8. Leverage laundry. With washing machines on site (and in each woodland cabin), you can shop and pack lighter.
