Location
Discover a Peaceful Retreat Surrounded by Nature
This holiday park is nestled amidst three stunning natural areas: the Mantingerzand, known for its shifting sands and grazing Scottish Highland cows; the Geeserstroomgebied, a unique and picturesque landscape; and the juniper-filled Mantingerzand. The park gets its name from a Bronze Age relic, the "Bronze Bucket," discovered in Meppen’s Es fields, showcasing the region’s historical allure. Adjacent to the charming village of Meppen, known for its traditional thatched-roof farms and majestic oak trees, this location offers tranquility and lush greenery.
The area is a haven for nature enthusiasts, attracting hikers, cyclists, horseback riders, active seniors, and anyone seeking peace. The holiday park features beautiful detached Finnish bungalows at the forest's edge. These bungalows come with sunny south-facing verandas, large private gardens with outdoor furniture, and a peaceful setting, offering privacy while keeping the park's extensive amenities nearby.
Park Amenities:
- Leisure and Sports: Indoor swimming pool (28°C), baby pool with higher temperatures, outdoor paddling pool (weather permitting), sauna, sports fields, beach volleyball, all-weather tennis court, boules, and trampoline.
- Recreation: A spacious recreation room with table tennis, darts, air hockey, foosball, a large screen for movies and sports, and grazing deer nearby.
- Outdoor Activities: Sand drifts, playgrounds, and bicycle rental for exploring the area.
- Dining and Convenience: A year-round restaurant (hours vary with occupancy) and a car wash for added convenience.
In warm weather, the pool’s sliding glass doors open onto a sunny lawn, perfect for relaxation. During winter, the bungalows provide a cozy retreat for families and friends, and if it snows, cross-country skiing through the scenic Mepperdennen forest is a memorable experience.
The indoor pool and baby pool are available from late April to the end of September, ensuring plenty of opportunities to unwind. Whether you’re looking for an active holiday or a serene getaway, this park offers something for everyone!
