Restyle chalets and family villa's

March 25, 2018
The living rooms in the type Geul chalets Loodsmansduin Campsite and chalet types Krim, Noordzee and Wadden at De Krim Holiday Park were refurnished. Also the family villas were restyled.

Tip from the park manager

‘Take a walk through nature at the campsite and enjoy the views from the viewpoint at ‘De Merel’, one of my favourite spots on the campsite. From the campsite, you can walk straight into the dunes, De Bollenkamer and De Hors. There are so many stunning places on Texel, but my personal favourite really is De Hors: its ruggedness, unspoilt natural beauty and tranquillity make this place truly unique in my eyes.’
