De Kempervennen - Help with booking

redsandy101

Hi all, I am hoping to book a week in July at Centre Parcs village, De Kempervennen in Holland. At the booking stage it says there are 4 Toppings of my choice free plus free choice of location. Does anyone know what the toppings are and how I book them?

Thinking of going overnight on the ferry from Harwich to Hook of Holland with 6,14 and 16 year olds, any tips re. this crossing much appreciated as we will have got the ferry from Belfast to Scotland in the morning and driven down to Harwich for the evening boat. A bit worried about the long journey as OH recently diagnosed with diabetes and will probably have to stop and rest\eat a lot on such a long journey.

thanks

Have been there a couple of times, your kids will love it. cannot help re toppings but if you phone them they speak excellent English
re travel we found it cheaper and easier to fly Ryanair to Endhoven, its about a euro60 charge by taxi each way, you do not need a car when you are there.
Looking at ryanairs site they fly from Dublin to Eindhoven

Thanks for the response but OMG I just checked the price on Aer Lingus for 4th July returning 11th and its 3,289.60 Euros for 5 of us with 2 checked bags. Ryanair just over £700.oo with 4 checked luggage, I did price flying with easyjet from Belfast £441 with 4 checked bags but we are a bit worried about how to get from the Airport to the camp.

Kids and hubby are not up for 2 weeks by a pool in Majorca (boring apparently but I would love it) so this looked so good with the ski slope etc. but if flying we would only be away for a week, driving we can stop somewhere else for a week and get to use Stena vouchers from 4 X Tesco vouchers, but worried if its too much for OH now so flying could be a better option.

Need to decide by 3rd Jan to get the 20% early booking discount. Loved Sherwood Park but its just so expensive now compared to the European ones.
thanks

Have you tried rearranging dates around lower airfaires. Re transport it was approx 60euro single way in a minivan 2 years ago, or I came across this on google
On your booking with Center Parcs, specify shuttle bus pickup (for a small surcharge). This bus goes at fixed times from Eindhoven railway station.

b) Travel by normal public bus from airport to station. Takes around 20 mins and has a good frequency, at least quarterly.
