Camping ’t Schinkel

Alan Rogers Review of Camping ’t Schinkel

Camping ’t Schinkel is a campsite with lots of facilities and activities, especially suitable for families with young children. It has been created with a Kingdom theme, so children will get into the fairytale atmosphere as soon as they arrive. Set in the heart of a nature reserve, on the edge of the little town Hoenderloo, it is surrounded by forests and moors. The site has a total of 200 touring pitches, all with 6-10A electricity. A part of the site is car-free. The shop, bar and restaurant were undergoing renovation when we visited. Hoenderloo has one of the three main entrances to the national park, the Hoge Veluwe, where you will find deer, wild mountain sheep and hogs.

Activities for children include sports, swimming in the heated outdoor pool, cuddling the bunnies in the royal stables, showering with the monkeys or climbing the castle. There are also films available to watch, bingo and clue hunts are organised by the entertainment team.

There are fine walking and cycling opportunities or the well known Kröller-Müller museum is well worth a visit.
