Centre Parcs Holland - anyone done it?

Recommended Posts

I just booked a long weekend at one of the Landal parks in the Netherlands, which are supposed to be similar but a bit cheaper than Centre Parcs. We booked Het Vennenbos I think it is called. We're taking the Eurostar to Brussels and then it is 1 hr 20 mins drive from there.

Yes, we went to Het Heijerbos (or something like that!) about 5 years ago. The swimming pool was fab and we spent a lot of time in there! There was also an indoor jungle thing and bowling that we did. And I think indoor tennis or badminton? We took our bikes and rode around a lot, but it was very chilly, so we couldn't get the children to play in the outside play areas for very long!


The cottages were like Hitlers bunker from the outside, but quite modern and clean inside and reasonably well-equipped. The restaurant that we tried was a typical child-friendly place...

    • Anyone have any amount going over the next 4 weeks? thank tou
    • Please understand that I am not doubting the word of anyone who has posted here with problems with bought-in prepared meat, but (I am old) uncooked meat (perfectly 'good' meat) does smell often, we are too used to shrink wrapped and chilled supermarket meat which can be almost scent free - so we are surprised when 'butcher's' meat does smell (and often, if it is uncooked, quite strongly). Indeed game which is high can smell quite strongly, and not in a good way to our 21st C sensibilities, without being off - as in food poisoning off. Certainly prepared meat, when cooked, should smell enticing, and not at all bad - so the experiences quoted above are certainly very worrying - but younger people reading this should not be concerned, particularly, if fresh (raw) meat they have bought from e.g. a proper butchers has a smell to it. Which is not to say that something which smells rank shouldn't be a point of complaint. Even the smell of high-ish game, if left unwrapped, should dissipate once unwrapped. If it increases however it may be  cause for concern. But raw beef or lamb in the joint can often smell of something which isn't necessarily particularly nice, without it being worrying. It will tend to cook with more flavour.
