The 13 best parks and gardens in Otterlo

Spent the whole afternoon here, biked the whole national park loop, took us about 3hrs including stops for pics and deer viewing. Scenery is super nice from lush forests to dunes and dry grasses (Safari feels!). White bikes are free! One size only for adults, good enough for me (5ft), all bikes only with footbrake :D

The park is very beautiful, with several types of landscape, forest, veld (heather fields), dunes, lake. We did not see any wildlife, but we were not there very early, so probably not the best hours. The free white bikes helped us travel through the park - the bikes are quite basic, but well maintained and it is very welcome that the park made it part of the experience. All in all, we spent a great day at Hoge Veluwe!

Beautiful park with a variety of ecosystems. Very well maintained with a network of hiking and cycling paths. The restaurant at the main entrance had delicious meals. Basic bicycles wit child seats are free to use and need no booking. They also had tandum bicycles, bicycles with a wheelchair in front and electric bikes to rent.

I was really surprised by this place which became one of my favorite at all. I didn’t expect such a beauty. The nature was so various! The dense forest, lakes, so many different trees and plants, or sand dunes… Views on all of this was truly stunning. One day is definitely not enough to thoroughly explore this place, it is so huge! You can find, after relaxing in and enjoying the wild forest, many branches where to stop and admiring the surrounding or just rest. Toilets are available as well (of course that not on many places). When i returned, I felt so replenished, so well… thank to this beautiful place!

It is one of the best national parks with great cycling routes and museums inside the park. The greenery is utterly stunning and quite beautiful. The cafes inside offer quite good food options as well. You can get a bike inside the national park which makes the exploration quite easy and fun. Also, if lucky, one can spot deers too. Worth every penny!

We visited the park on a sunny day, and it was nice. The free white bikes (with pedal brakes) are available at the main entrances and the museum, and cycling around was a fun way to explore. It’s easy to cover quite a bit of ground, and the landscapes change as you go, so it doesn’t feel quite boring. We didn’t see many animals, just a deer or two and some birds, but there are spots where you can sit and wait. We weren’t actively looking for wildlife, though. One thing to note is that you have to pay for the park entrance if you just want to visit the Kröller-Müller Museum, which some might find annoying. The museum itself was nice, and the sculpture garden is worth checking out. If you can, bring your own food or picnic as there are places to sit and eat. If you’re leaving through the Hoenderloo entrance, grab an ice cream from IJs van Co. It’s a sweet way to end the day.

Huge nature area with 40 km of cycle tracks plus loads of walking trails. Bikes are included in the entry fee. Quite expensive to take the car in but it is 3km from the entrance to the central visitor centre . Not crowded at all and open until 10pm in June and July with the restaurant serving until 9.30pm. Well worth a visit.

The museum has the second largest Van Gogh collection in the world. There are many paintings of him. There is both closed and open air areas where you can spend a whole afternoon. Also nice cafe and restaurants. Recommended.

As my friend highly recommended this museum, I decided to visit it from Amsterdam. It wasn’t too difficult to get there. When you arrive at the train station in the city where the museum is located, you can take a connecting bus directly from the station. After getting off at the final stop, just cross the street and wait at the bus stop on the other side. The bus driver mentioned that buses run twice an hour, but from my experience, you might end up waiting for as long as an hour. :) The museum itself was very nice and not too crowded. You can take your time and enjoy Vincent van Gogh’s paintings in a calm and peaceful atmosphere. The food at the restaurant was quite good — I had a hamburger, and it was tasty. Most other visitors seemed to be ordering soup, just for your information. The outdoor garden is also well known. There’s nothing particularly special about it, but it’s a pleasant place for a walk.

Great experience overall but entry fees to national park is separate to get to the museum which then comes out to be a bit above 26 euros combined. Free bikes to go around the national park. The Kröller Müller museum is nice as well with a vast collection of Van Gogh. Other noticable works for Paul Signac, Monet etc. Although the museum could be a bit more immersive. Overall a great daytrip in Netherlands

I had the chance to visit the most impressive and fascinating museum I’ve ever seen in the Netherlands — the Kröller-Müller Museum. There are incredible artworks of Vincent van Gogh, Picasso and many other painters and amazing sculptures. Sincere thanks to the museum’s management, and to Helene and Anton Kröller-Müller, whose vision and passion made this remarkable place possible. Please make your plan for whole day, not only for museum but also cafe inside and outdoor in the forest.

So much more than a museum. Obviously the main draw to this remote location is its important collection of paintings and sculptures. But the setting is what makes it such an outstanding visit. Deep inside a huge park, you can and you should choose to reach the museum from the entrance by the white bicycles freely available to all. If the weather is nice this short (about 20 minutes) ride gets you in a jolly mood. Power up with the small but tasty menu of desserts and small plates in the restaurant. It took me 5 hours to enjoy the place.

Nice museum but it's a pity that you have to pay to enter the forest reserve/Park whatsoever. I understand if you had to pay a couple of euros for the care of the place and for the free bikes. But 13,40 is definitely an overkill. Pityy

Hello everyone. what’s a very interesting place and amazing art. I would recommend this to anyone and the outdoor seating area for the cafeteria was amazing as well. very Tranquill and quiet. A place I’ve been several times now in the last few years.

Very nice museum with lots of engaging, interactive displays

Although small it is an interesting place to visit. Lots of information about what's underground and what has been found in the area from the past

Nice museum to walk around while having a break from cycling around the forest. It’s free to enter if you have paid to go into the whole park. There is a lot to learn about the area. There is lots of interactive elements to hear things and see things and lots of taxidermized animals which gives a good visual of the real animals. Some of the photos/images/videos seem to be quite outdated though.

Smaller than expected but completely free of charge when you bought a ticket into the park. Definitely worth a visit as it's probably the last place you'll see animals in the park as the rest are eaten by the wolves, hehe. Great exhibit of skulls and extinct animals.

It’s an interesting museum with real animal skeletons and specimens. Also, it introduces some geography knowledge about the rain fall and the geology. I’ve seen parents and children coming here for a knowledgeable visit.

Super nice museum, its free and full of infos about the park and the animals. Impressive + very friendly staffs

Nice staff and free entry. Informative and an engaging, but slightly outdated in the underground part.

Stunning art deco building, gorgeous interior, the house tour was very informative and engaging, it took around 45 minutes. We only visited the lower floor rooms. A must do!

Must buy tickets in Advance! The building is stunning, the setting is amazing, the story is compelling. But...you only get to see 5 rooms, all on the main floor. It's a comprehensive ~1 hour tour (in Dutch) for what you see, but it's disappointing that more of the building isn't accessible, especially given it's only shown by guided tour anyway. For non-dutch speakers, we were given an audio tour device (included with your price). Tour guide was extremely knowledgeable. Be aware you will not access the tower, bedrooms, anything upstairs, basement, kitchens, etc. You can explore the grounds before or after (free all year) and there is a small cafe on-site. Parking is a 5 minute walk down the road. The tour would be accessible, I'm not sure if they allow wheelchairs.

Enjoyed the guided tour of the house. Very interesting history and great to hear not only about the house, but also some background on the Kroller-Muller couple and the interactions with Berlage, who not only designed the house but also most of the interior, furniture etc. My first time enjoying 'gesamtkunst'.

I joined the guided tour here on June 12 at 1:30 PM, and I must say the guide was amazing. They gave a detailed introduction in English about the history and stories behind the building, making it a truly enjoyable experience. Thank you!

Beautiful place for ride and enjoy nature

Beautiful house inside the park.

Went in wintertime, no place for food but there’s a small teahouse with hot chocolate, perfect for taking in the view of the lake side while enjoying a nice drink on the bench. Beautiful place to walk around the meadow.

Not to far from Arnhem, this is a beautiful area for nature lovers, you can walk or ride a free bicycle, the entrance fee is 13 euros 🌿

Lovely nature area. Bring your own bicycle or grab a free one to get around. Plenty available.

I loved this National park, 13 euro is the entrance fee, bikes are free to cycle in the park. There are 2 museums inside the park, one is 2.5 the other one is 3.5km away. Easy to go with bike. Cycling path is full of trees, loved it.

The area os stunning, the directions an instructions useless. Avoid on a weekend: cyclists in The Netherlands are just as bad on their bikes as in their cars. It's too busy and people are more about conversations than enjoying the beauty around in relative quiet. I was a captive audience to waaaay too many conversations that had nothing to do with nature!

Gotta be honest here. Very expensive to enter/park your car. Only to realise the price of admission to the museum is a separate cost. By the time we got to the museum, taking the scenic walking route, we wanted a drink before we walked into the museum. Discovering that this would cost us extra, we kindly passed on the undoubtably nice visit, but had to travel on to actually have a drink. Enjoying one on site was impossible (because: no entrance tickets). I understand that this is a private park and requires upkeep, but charging around €45 for parking, entrance and museum visit is pushing the boundaries of acceptable. We found some discarded bikes along our hike which people had given up on, discovering you could not bike through sand that easily. We dragged those two bikes along the remaining 7km before finding a station to leave them at. Had I known what I know now, I probably would’ve left them. Aside from this issue: a nice park, well kept walking paths, cool biking opportunities. Would I recommend it? No.not under these circumstances.

Friendly and comfortable Can spend all day there

13,5 entry so that I can walk to the museum through a part that SURELY should paid by taxes?? I pay 20€ to get here, 70€ for a museumcaard AND THEN YOU WANT 13.50 for entry ???? Park is a scam, if you just want to go to the museum And even if you want to see the park, not worth it, cars inside etc

An excellent restaurant – we were pleasantly surprised! The service was lightning-fast – everything we ordered arrived almost instantly. Great drinks and food. The burgers were fantastic, but the vegetable salad was even better – and it’s only €4.50! Our daughter loved the pasta with tomato sauce. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend this place.

The restaurant is in the same building as the souvenir shop. Very nice interior design, bright and simplistic. The food is reasonably priced there. I ordered a pancake and the portion was very good - couldn’t even finish it.

Amazing food. Location: come on guys, be serious, maybe the most beautiful spot in the Netherlands

Fabulous restaurant. Lovely clean facilities and restrooms. Extremely fresh and delicious food. Fresh ginger slices in tea with fresh lemon and if desired honey! Warm foods, desserts... Biking right outside.... Loved it!

Excellent place to close your day in the Veluwe park! Super nice and clean restaurant. You can order via a QR code (one of each table) and your order comes right away. i ordered the grilled meat and it was served with grilled vegetables. French fries can be ordered separately. It was very tender and to the point.

All good here. From their rating on maps we were expecting much worse

By far, It's a best kibbeling I have ever had in my life. Tried many other places but nothing beats this one for sure. Fish was extremely fresh and perfectly cooked. We ordered 1 more even after our stomachs were completely filled. Enjoyed every bite of it😋😋😋

Beautiful location for a walk or a cycle ride.

Wonderful place. There are not so many restaurants where you can get a really nicely cooked duck. Here you can. Book a table, avoid awkward waiting while smart people enjoy their food))

Very nice walk around. Get lost in nature!

Had a lovely dinner here with delicious food. The service was good and relatively quick. Everything was delicious except from the crab salad which had a bit of a weird taste. Would highly recommend the gamba (prawns) starter though which had a delicious sauce!

Very nice views. Easy parking

Good forest area to hike, lot of wildlife activity. Be careful if you don't know the area though, we just saved two people who got lost in the dark. Pin the location of your car in maps or take a screenshot. Lot of wild boar. Be save!

Pleasant place, good coffee and lunches, excellent walking opportunities

(Translated by Google) Disappointment. The pump is broken, no climbing equipment. Just a lot of tree trunk teepees. Recommended: a visit to the area. Via the nature monuments route app you can download a small route with Oerrr as a start. The App contains some general assignments with the motto: listen, feel and experience nature. This Oerrr location is not worth coming especially for. (Original) Tegenvaller. De pomp is stuk, geen klimtoestellen. Alleen enorm veel boomstammentipi's. Wel aan te raden: een bezoek aan het gebied. Via de natuurmonumenten-route app kun je een kleine route downloaden met Oerrr als start. In de App zitten wat algemene opdrachten met als motto: beluister, voel en ervaar de natuur. Deze Oerrr locatie is niet de moeite waard om speciaal voor naar toe te komen.

(Translated by Google) What a disappointment. We took a special walk there, but all we found was a forest with many branch huts. That's the only thing. Even the one water pump is broken. Almost a reason to cancel OERRR membership. Disrespectful to children. Not even a tree to climb here. (Original) Wat een tegenvaller. Speciaal naar toe gewandeld, maar je treft alleen een bos met veel takkenhutten. Dat is dan ook het enige. Zelfs de ene waterpomp is stuk. Bijna reden om OERRR lidmaatschap op te zeggen. Respectloos naar kinderen. Zelfs geen boom waar in geklommen kan worden hier.

(Translated by Google) The idea is wonderful, but it is currently a bit of a faded glory. Posts are missing and the play forest gives the impression that it is never looked after. Too bad the water pump no longer works, kids can normally have fun with it for hours. (Original) Het idee is prachtig maar het is momenteel wat vergane glorie. Er ontbreken palen en het speelbos wekt de indruk dat er nooit naar omgekeken wordt. Jammer dat de waterpomp niet meer werkt, kids kunnen zich daar normaal uren mee vermaken.

(Translated by Google) Nice place to walk and explore with your children. (Original) Leuke plek om te wandelen en ontdekken met je kinderen.

(Translated by Google) Children can complete fun assignments here during a walk. (Original) Kinderen kunnen hier tijdens een wandeling leuke opdrachten uitvoeren.

I have stayed here a couple of times, the first was ten years ago and also just in Sep 24. It’s a good location for the Airborne anniversary weekends although the accommodation and site now seems tired and pretty un-maintained which is a shame. Price was cheap, gras looked like it hadn’t been cut for months, shops not open when they should have been and bare, dirty and damp caravans etc. Would likely stay again due to location but go for the higher grade accommodation.

Absolutely the worst experience we have ever had. This place is a complete disgrace and should be shut down. We booked for 6 people and even paid extra for 6 sets of sheets and duvets. What did we get? Absolutely nothing. No clean linens, no duvets — instead, the filthy, disgusting bedding from the previous guests was still there waiting for us. The house had clearly not been cleaned for a long time. Walking into this place felt like walking into an abandoned, neglected property. Spider webs in every room, dirt everywhere — the level of negligence is shocking. For a house that is advertised for 6 people, they couldn’t even provide enough utensils for everyone. Only 3 sets of cutlery in a so-called “6-person” rental? What a joke. We complained at the reception for two days straight, and both times they promised someone would come to clean and remove the dirty bedding. Guess what? Nobody ever came. Zero accountability, zero service. They simply take your money and disappear. And the pool… beyond disgusting. The water was full of hair, floating debris, and dirt on the bottom. Clearly, it hadn’t been cleaned or maintained in ages. The so-called “facilities” around the pool were even worse. The toilets were absolutely revolting — smeared feces on the walls, filth everywhere. It was sickening and a serious health hazard. Staying here actually felt dangerous for our health. This place is not just dirty — it is a scam, a health risk, and an insult to anyone who books it. They charge you for services they never deliver, lie to your face, and leave you in filth. Shameful, disgusting, and utterly unacceptable. We will be reporting this property to the health authorities and tourism regulators because it is a serious danger to public health. Do yourself a favor: stay as far away from this place as possible. It is by far the worst property we have ever encountered, and it should be avoided at all costs.

Its unfortunate seeing this place go down like this. Looking at the google photos (which I am sure are old) and just the sheer size, and remembrance of of the park, you can know that it has seen better days. We had a good stay. We were scared after reading all the negative reviews about the place. Despite the fact that you can see that no one maintains the amenities (playgrounds, roads etc.) anymore, we had a decent stay. Our rooms and toilets were clean. We had all the necessary cutleries in the Kitchen. We enjoyed the pool and sauna. So all in all, no complaints.

-We were provided with a single roll of toilet paper for two people over a three-day period. This meager provision is inadequate, especially considering potential medical or personal needs. Having to request additional toilet paper from the reception was both uncomfortable and unnecessary. -The website misleadingly claims that WiFi is included. In reality, WiFi is only available in public spaces, and this crucial detail is buried at the bottom of the webpage. Such misleading presentation is frustrating and feels deceptive. Important information like this should be prominently displayed. -While bed sheets were supplied, there were no towels provided. This crucial detail was not disclosed on the website. When we inquired at the reception, we were curtly informed that towels are not provided. This is unacceptable, as towels are a basic necessity that guests should not have to request. -The absence of hand soap in the bathroom was another glaring issue. We had to ask for hand soap, and were resentfully given a single bottle, which we then had to use for hand washing, showering, and dishwashing due to the lack of dish soap. But we were provided a dish sponge without soap, absolutely nonsensical. -Only option to purchase necessities is camping supermarket that closes at 1 PM and is closed on Wednesdays. This is highly inconvenient for guests without car, considering the long walk to the bus stop (15min), infrequent bus service, and distant location of the nearest supermarket (20min bus). The website should clearly state that having a car is essential. -The coffee machine was dirty and lacked coffee filters. Expecting guests to purchase an entire package of coffee filters for a short stay is unreasonable. -We also rented two bicycles, which were exorbitantly priced at €11 per day. One bike had a broken light, posing a safety problem, and the other bike’s saddle could not be adjusted, rendering it unusable for anyone of average height. -Oh, the way from the bus stop is 15min through a ONLY CAR street. Good luck with that, especially when it gets dark. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE AT ALL!!!!!!!

Last year I visit this «amazing place» and I would like to say about hospitality. Some of the stuff why’s work there was rude to me. Stuff at the reception speak very poor English. Room what they gave to me was dirty and not prepared on time. «You spending money at local business and this no hospitality service» .I left this resort 1 or 2 days earlier and ask at the reception for refund. There was no even response at all. And many other issues…..

I must say, positivelly surprised by the surroundings. Great spacious pitches and you feel right at home in the forest camping. Sanitaire is ok and clean. Bit dated and toilet flushes not so great. Shower works fine with clock so you don't have to push each 30 sec. No coins needed. All and all fine camping despite all the gossip.

First of all: The staff members are very friendly and really willing to help!! I can't say any negative about it! But the mobile homes are outdated, I got dirty dishes in the cupboard and the bedsheets were dirty even tho they were washed and sealed. The boiler broke down several times so I got another house after four days. The supermarket is only open four days a week for several hours. So I recommend driving to Arnehm for grocery shopping. Restaurant is open on Wednesday and weekends and only in the evening. The beds are uncomfortable. Very thin mattresses. The nature here is beautiful. The parc has several playgrounds for children and even Minigolf. Washing is very expensive so bring enough clothing with you. 7,50 EUR for one wash cycle. I'm sorry but I won't book here again. There are plenty of Vakantieparcs that are mich better.

We went to Ginkel for the 80th Anniversary Op Market Garden as my father was a Para and parachuted in at Ginkel. The display was awesome and the work that went into it must have been astounding. Thank you to all the Dutch people for remembering and your hospitality during our visit

It was a great experience to jump with a Netherlands parachute during a World War II commemoration.

Thursday August 14, 2025

Great place very atmospheric because of its history of the parachute landing WW2

Not all field is blooming

Visited to see the drop zone for one of the Operation Market Garden landing areas. Disappointed there was not more lay byes or information about this.

One of the most beautiful nature areas in the Netherlands. Hands down. Heath, forest, sand dunes and many rare flowers, animals and historical places.

(Translated by Google) Tops: Beautiful, spacious rooms, kitchen and living room, sufficient sanitary facilities for a large group (we were 18 people). Swimming pool and wellness were very neat and tidy. Location and finishing level of the farm. Tips: with such a luxurious stay we just missed the finishing touches: linen package included but you have to make the beds yourself... towel package pp should be included at these prices and this level. In any case 1 toilet roll per toilet on arrival and hand soap was also missing. Finally 3 dishwasher tablets for a long weekend with 18p and two dishwashers was also very meager. We enjoyed it and would love to come back again! (Original) Tops: Mooie, ruime kamers, keuken en woonkamer, voldoende sanitaire voorzieningen voor grote groep (wij waren met 18 personen). Zwembad en wellness was heel netjes op orde. Ligging en afwerkingsniveau van de Hoeve. Tips: bij zo’n luxe verblijf misten wij net de puntjes op de i: linnenpakket inclusief maar wel zelf de bedden opmaken… handdoeken pakket pp zou bij deze prijzen en dit niveau wel inbegrepen mogen zijn. In ieder geval 1 Toiletrol per toilet bij aankomst en handzeep ontbrak ook. Tot slot 3 vaatwastabletten voor lang weekend met 18p en twee vaatwassers was ook erg karig. We hebben genoten en komen graag weer een keer terug!

(Translated by Google) Unfortunately I will have to give a negative review of my favorite park in the Netherlands. We left another park because of horseflies and wasps that were present in abundance and continuously attacked us (including our 2-year-old child). Called to see if there was a lot of trouble here too. There was nothing wrong. .... unfortunately I should have known that the reception has no visibility and just talks nonsense. Once we arrived, it was immediately a hit. The park manager (Jeroen, a great guy and deserves a pat on the back for what he does) honestly stated that a nest had been removed. But removing it did not solve the problem for us. Once at the pool and on our terrace, it happened again every few minutes. Which resulted in us staying indoors for 2 days. The stay at the pool and terrace is simply not possible. In short, this was the last straw for us and we packed our things and left. I have now emailed Berkenrhode twice to resolve this properly and have had no response. I spoke to the park manager's wife (unfortunately I forgot her name) when checking out and she said she would take this up with the front office. I would have preferred to have received an honest answer on the phone earlier so that we would have come in a different season, because Oud Beekdal feels like our favorite spot, but because of the handling I now have doubts whether we should go back, because we do want to, but not this period. Additional: The first night I probably had to beat up around 50 moths in the evening and night. Because of this I flushed all the pipes thoroughly (with boiling water). Jeroen was really super attentive and flushed again, but this is all after the fact and you don't buy anything after such a bad afternoon. What I am most surprised about is the customer service of the front desk. Jeroen's wife is supposed to consult with the front desk, but after day 2 we still haven't heard anything (despite having sent an email twice). The front office seems downright terrible to me. After my reports on the first day I got the following back (I quote what I got via WhatsApp): Unfortunately we can't do anything about flying insects at the pool, we can't pick those insects out of the air. The nest was there last week and it was removed by a professional company. So there is no nest anymore. That's why my colleague said this and that's not a lie :) Again, we can't do anything about flying insects My question wasn't about the nest either, because I didn't even know that until I was at the park and heard this. My question was whether the park was also full of wasps now. The simple answer should have been: Yes, it is. Then we would have come back a different season. By removing one nest you can't say from your desk that everything is gone (!). As a solution, we went to the Berkenrhode park ourselves and of course. There are wasps there too, but much less despite a wooded area. Of course they came to us too, but there were fewer of them, so we didn't have any trouble with it. We are used to it, but a few coming at you every minute is just too much. I got the following about the moths: However, if you open a window without mosquito nets or the back door to the hot tub, insects can always fly in. Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do about that, it is just the time of year for flies/mosquitoes/bees. This is of course sad and I would like to point out the fact that I just googled how fly moths get in when everything is closed. I spent hours trying to get them out of the house and flushing the pipes. What surprises me is that I did not get any understanding or empathy from the park (front office). Absolutely NOTHING! This is not how you treat your guests who come more often, is it? In short, I feel compelled to report this as a review. (Original) Helaas zal ik van mijn favoriete park in Nederland een negatieve review moeten geven. Wij hebben een ander park verlaten door dazen en wespen die in overvloed aanwezig waren en ons (incl. ons 2-jarig kindje) continu aanvielen. Gebeld of er hier ook veel last is. Er zou niks aan de hand zijn. ....helaas had ik moeten weten dat de receptie geen enkele zicht heeft en maar onzin uitkraamt. Eenmaal aangekomen was het gelijk raak. De parkbeheerder (Jeroen, top vent en verdient een pluim voor wat hij doet) gaf eerlijk aan dat er een nest is weg gehaald. Maar met dat weghalen bleek het probleem voor ons niet weg te zijn. Eenmaal bij het zwembad en op ons terras was het ieder paar minuten weer raak. Wat resulteert in 2 dagen binnenblijven. Het verblijf bij het zwembad en terras simpelweg niet te doen is. Kortom, dit was voor ons de druppel en hebben onze spullen gepakt en zijn we weggegaan. Ik heb inmiddels 2x gemaild naar Berkenrhode om dit netjes op te lossen en geen reactie gehad. De vrouw van de parkbeheerder (haar naam helaas vergeten) gesproken bij het uitchecken en die zouj dit met het frontoffice oppakken. Het liefst had ik eerder aan de telefoon gewoon een goudeerlijk antwoord ontvangen zodat we een ander seizoen waren gekomen, want Oud Beekdal voelt als ons favoriete plekje maar door de afhandeling trek ik nu mijn twijfels of we terug moeten, want dat willen we wel. maar dan niet deze periode. Aanvullend: De 1e nacht heb ik in de avond en nacht wellicht rond de 50 vliegmotten moeten slaan. Ik heb hierdoor alle leidingen goed doorgespoeld (met kokend water). Jeroen was echt super attent en heeft ook nogmaals doorgespoeld, maar dit is allemaal achteraf en koop je na zo een slechte middag niks mee. Waar ik mij het meeste over verbaasd heb is de klantenservice van de front desk. De vrouw van Jeroen zou overleg hebben met de front desk maar na dag 2 horen we nog niks (ondanks 2x een email verzonden te hebben). Het frontoffice lijkt me ronduit verschrikkelijk. Na mijn meldingen de eerste dag kreeg ik het volgende terug (ik citeer wat ik via whatsapp kreeg): Aan rondvliegende insecten bij het zwembad kunnen wij helaas ook niets doen, wij kunnen die insecten niet uit de lucht plukken. Het nest heeft er vorige week gezeten en die is door een professioneel bedrijf verwijderd. Er is dus geen nest meer aanwezig. Vandaar dat mijn collega dit heeft gezegd en daar is dus niets aan gelogen :) Nogmaals, aan rond vliegende insecten kunnen wij niets doen Mijn vraag was ook niet over het nest, want dat wist ik niet eens tot ik op het park was en dit te horen kreeg. Mijn vraag was of het park nu ook vol zat met wespen. Daaruit had simpel het antwoord moeten zijn: Ja, dat is zo. Dan hadden we een ander seizoen teruggekomen. Met één nest verwijderen kan je niet vanaf je bureau zeggen dat alles weg is(!). We waren als oplossing zelf nog even naar de park Berkenrhode gegaan en uiteraard. Hier zijn ook wespen, maar vele malen minder ondanks een bosrijk gebied. Tuurlijk kwamen die ook op ons af, maar waren er minder, dus hebben we geen moeite mee. We zijn wel wat gewend, maar ieder minuut een paar op je af is gewoon teveel. Op de motten kreeg ik het volgende: Echter als u bijvoorbeeld een raam zonder horren opendoet of bijvoorbeeld de achterdeur naar de hottub toe, dan kunnen er altijd insecten binnen vliegen. Daar kunnen wij helaas ook niets aan doen, het is nu eenmaal wel de tijd van het jaar voor vliegen/muggen/bijen. Dit is natuurlijk sneu en hierbij gewezen op het feit even te googlen hoe vliegmotten binnenkomen als alles gesloten is. Ik ben hier uren mee bezig geweest ze het huis uit te krijgen en de leidingen door te spoelen. Wat mij verbaasd is dat ik geen enkel begrip kreeg van het park (frontoffice) of empathie. Werkelijk NIETS! Zo ga je toch niet met je gasten om die vaker komen? Kortom, ik voel me genoodzaakt dit als review te melden.

(Translated by Google) Still disappointed. We had selected this house specifically for the hot tub and its location and have been looking forward to spending the evening in the hot tub for two evenings, but unfortunately we have now come home from a rude awakening (hot tub) for two evenings and the hot tub is now even defective. Someone has already come by twice. The first time was on Saturday morning because we could not get the hot tub up to temperature on Friday evening and the display did not work after turning on the switch, but when we wanted to use it again on Saturday evening the display kept showing an error and the hot tub no longer heated. We then called the emergency number, but unfortunately the hot tub cannot be repaired for now. They offered us to use the neighbors hot tub until our stay. This is of course very nice and well-intentioned, but before it has warmed up we have been 2 hours further (it is now 7:30 PM) and it is now the 2nd out of 3 evening that we have not been able to use the hot tub. I really think this is a shame and will definitely file a complaint about this, because this is a waste of money and a shame if you have specifically booked for this ADDITION: Neatly resolved by berkenrhode and received a partial refund for the 2 evenings that we were unable to use the hot tub (Original) Toch teleurgesteld. Hadden dit huisje specifiek op de hottub en de ligging uitgezocht en kijken er al 2 avonden naar uit om de avond heerlijk in de hottub door te kunnen brengen, maar helaas komen we nu al 2 avonden van een koude kermis(hottub) thuis en is de hottub nu zelfs defect. Er is al 2x iemand voor langs geweest. De 1e keer op zaterdagochtend omdat wij de hottub vrijdagavond niet op temperatuur kregen en ook het display niet werkte na het aanzetten van de schakelaar, maar toen we er zaterdagavond opnieuw inwilde gaf het display steeds een error aan en verwarmde de hottub niet meer. Vervolgens hebben wij het storingsnummer gebeld maar helaas is de hottub voor nu niet te repareren. Ze hebben ons aangeboden om tot ons verblijf de hottub van de buren te gebruiken. Is natuurlijk heel fijn en goed bedoeld maar eer deze is opgewarmd zijn we ook 2 uur verder(het is nu 19:30) en is het inmiddels avond 2 van de 3 dat we géén gebruik hebben kunnen maken van de hottub. Vind dit echt heel jammer en ga hier zeker een klacht over indienen, want dit is weggegooid geld en zonde als je hier specifiek op geboekt hebt TOEVOEGING: Keurig opgelost door berkenrhode en een gedeeltelijke refund gekregen voor de 2 avonden dat wij geen gebruik hebben kunnen maken van de hottub

(Translated by Google) Great, very quiet complex, very clean apartment and entire complex including pool. Despite the terraced house development, there is enough privacy. However, upon arrival there were problems with the keyless access system, the reception was not manned, although opening hours were stated from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m., and a call to a number given at the reception was unsuccessful. There was no call back. Thanks to helpful neighbors we were still able to enter the apartment. The ongoing construction work wasn't particularly disruptive. A power outage in the entire facility was quickly resolved. All in all a great vacation. (Original) Toller sehr ruhig gelegener Komplex, sehr saubere Wohnung und gesamte Anlage inkl. Pool. Trotz der Reihenhausbebauung ausreichend Privatsphäre. Bei der Anreise gab es allerdings Probleme mit dem Keyless Zugangssystem, die Rezeption war nicht besetzt, obwohl Öffnungszeiten von 15.00-17.00Uhr angegeben waren, der Anruf bei einer an der Rezeption genannten Rufnummer lief ins Leere. Es erfolgte kein Rückruf. Dank hilfsbereiter Nachbarn konnten wir dennoch das Appartement betreten. Die aktuell noch bestehenden Bauarbeiten, störten nicht bespnders. Ein Stromausfall in der gesamten Anlage wurde zügig behoben. Alles in Allem ein toller Urlaub.
