Customer tips

Local recommendations and tips our customers have shared with us following their holiday at Duinrell.

"Leiden was lovely, like a mini Amsterdam with lots of local character and flavour."
F. Meikle, Cumbria

"The local beach was lovely to cycle to and the restaurants in the local town were very good, especially the Italian ones. We drove to Amsterdam one day, just 40 minutes away and definitely worth the visit."
C. St John-Bell, Kent

"In Amsterdam we visited Anne Frank's Haus (recommend booking online to avoid queues), took canal trips and walked around the old town. We also liked the beach in Wassenaar and cycling around on many easy routes. Leiden Market and Delft were also good."
E. Farthing, Cheshire

"We enjoyed cycling to the beach, and Madurodam was good too. We travelled by bus from the parc to Den Haag station, bought an all day pass to use buses and trams for just €2.90, then on to Madurodam."
J. Tierney, Lanarkshire

"There is a very pleasant beach called De Zeester in Wassenaar, which is nearer to the site than Wassenaarslag and has a beautiful terrace, nice sand and a play area for the children."
R. Bentley, Lancashire

"Wassenaar town, a 2 minute walk from the site gates, was a quaint little place with lovely streets, shops, cafés, bars and restaurants. In particular, La Scala italian restaurant was delightful. Wassenaar beach, 10 minutes away by car, was lovely and long with some nice places to eat. Leiden is a very picturesque town a few miles away and full of canals, beautiful buildings and character. Den Haag is a definite for anyone wanting to experience a large Dutch town and in need of some retail therapy! Finally for the ultimate experience, visit Amsterdam! Anne Frank's House, diamond factory, the canal system and the notorious red light district must be seen. All in all it's a lovely area to visit with great diversity."
R. Twine, Cambridgeshire

"We liked Leiden, Wassenaar's beach and the Tuesday market in the town, plus Luciano's ice cream shop - all within cycling distance for us and our older children."
A. Stocks, Lancashire

"Keukenhof was fantastic - we went in the middle of the flowering season and I am now looking at a marvellous colour print on my living room wall to remind me just how good it was! The courier info on Amsterdam was very good and I recommend the park and ride at the Olympic stadium. The nearby beach was nice, and I'd recommend you take your own picnic along. The local shops are very good and if you like cheese enjoy the try before you buy!"
M. Court, Kent

"We really liked the Keukenhof Gardens, Rotterdam Zoo and Amsterdam."
C. Gibson-Hill, Norfolk
