Hello


Does anyone know if there is a book listing any stopovers aires etc in The Netherlands like the French Aires publication please? Can you stay in your motorhome overnight say in a carpark? & is it generally safe to do this in Holland. Or must one always use a campsite.

Which is the best campsite guide for Holland.


Those of you who have toured Holland which ferry port did you travel from & to.

Thanks in advance


Motorhomer

Elizabeth,

Camper Stop Europe lists (in English) places to stay in the Netherlands I don't know of any other guide except the Caravan Club Guide.

It's not recomended that you free park in the Netherlands, it seems the police move campers on. I think the fine, if enforced is Euros 90.

You might get away with it if you can find a quiet spot in the following ares, Friesland, Flevoland, North Holland & Zealand.

As a point of interest the country's correct name is the Netherlands, north & south Holland are just regions of the country. Of course the Dutch don't help by putting made in Holland on many of their products.

Regards

Don

Hi Motorhomer,
Travelled from Hull, overnight cossing each way. Booked with cc see link below. I hope you have better weather than we did and my advise is not to stay at a site for more than 2 to 3 nights.

Steve,

I'm in the process of booking a Hull - Zeebrugge for the later in the year, the best I can get with the CC is £380 how does this compare with your crossing?

Hi Don
How many are going?
We had 5 adults and the first time we looked we picked 2 rooms, I then looked again and we could get a room for all 5 cheaper. We also got £8.50 meal vouchers each and a free bar of minatures/beer, wine and coke. We also received some fruit
Price also alters with Motorhome size. At the moment i am not sure what we paid (It was last Jan when we booked) If you still need to know get back to us and I will see if I can find booking.

Thanks Steve,

It's not a problem we use the crossing about twice a year and I was just curious to what you paid.

In the last few years it's varied from £180 to £330 for 6 metre van and a two berth outside cabin.

After being away for four/five months I just can't face the drive up from Dover.

Steve,

The two berth cabin comes up on the screen when booking.

I use to book by phone, I might give them a ring and see If they have any deals going.

I remember a bit of a problem on line but persevered and got it in the end. Phone call may help.

Good luck

Steve

Thanks for the info Don

I have been surfing around but not found any reallt useful sites as yet. There doesnt seem to be that many campsites around. think there is only a couple of entries in the campsite data base. maybe not many member venture there. We have been invited to go & join our daughters family there in August but undecided whether to travel with them via Harwich or fly or take the Motorhome & then move on into Germany after spending a couple of weeks with them.
