Trip to Holland

nelliebag

We are thinking of going to Holland for 2 weeks in the summer (July). The first 4 days we are planning to stay in Amsterdam and do the sights and museums and then go somewhere interesting for the rest of the time. Our 2 children 14 &19 will be with us. Has anyone any suggestions for resorts/hotels etc outside Amsterdam. Thanks.

Why not try Center Parcs? There are 5 parks in Holland. We went last year. It's less than half the price of the UK Center Parcs, and there's plenty to do for all ages.

Thanks - which resort did you stay in and do you know if I can use a discount code if the parc is outside the UK.

We stayed at Het Meerdal. To be honest I wasn't too worried about discount codes as it was about a third of the price of a British Park anyway!

We stayed at Center Parcs in holland and had a great time. We went to De Emhof, not to far from amsterdam.

Places we visited included Haderwilk (Spelling?) - Dolphinarium. Not far away is holland's first (and only?) outlet centre which is very similar to bicester outlet village. The drive across the dam is well worth a trip also.

The website has offers on it.
