  • Peaceful site in the 900-hectare Amsterdam Forest
  • Half an hour from Amsterdam city centre by bike: cycle hire on site
  • Very close public transport links for Amsterdam and Schiphol airport
An Amsterdam break… but without the noise, crowds and expense that come with city centre stays? If that sounds like quite the combo, take a look at EuroParcs Het Amsterdamse Bos, a peaceful North Holland site surrounded by woodland, canals and open spaces in the 900-hectare Amsterdam Forest, 10 minutes’ drive from Amstelveen. Although you might not guess it from the gorgeous green surrounds (which lend themselves well to strolls, swims, bike rides and canoe trips), the site is just eight kilometres from Amsterdam’s city centre. Arguably the best way to get there (and to blend in with the locals) is to hire bikes on site and pedal off along a cycle lane through the Vondelpark to the city’s central attractions in around half an hour or so. For those who prefer to save their muscle power for meandering around museums, it’s also easy to ride into the centre via public transport – a bus stop is just outside the site, and there’s a metro station within walking distance as well. Handily, there’s also a direct bus to Schiphol airport (around 20 minutes away) for easy getaways by air or connecting with trains to other Dutch cities. And there’s no need to put an early curfew on proceedings either – night owls can party in town until late, as public transport runs through to the small hours. Back at base, lots of essential facilities are sorted, including a shop, a launderette and a self-catering kitchen with dining room; there’s also a spacious bathroom block with plenty of toilets and showers.

Powered grass tent campsite

Liked: Clean facilities, toilets showers etc... Free showers that is a bonus. Grass pitch with electric seemed adequate sized.

Disliked: Very muddy in some areas, it had been raining, but there was areas that needed managing. Some grass pitches missing grass and where muddy, mine was mud/dirt so I moved further in to the neighboring pitch, the camp pitches where fairly empty during my stay anyways. Wish I knew it was in the flight zone for Amsterdam Airport, could be noisy at times with plane/helicopters coming and going.

Standard powered grass tent, travel trailer or trailer tent campsite

Liked: Fantastic facilities. We have stayed in 3 other campsites on our European trip and this was by far superior. Clean shower and wash facilities. Hot and high pressure water for 4 minute intervals (as opposed to 30 second intervals at most camp sites!) The camp site shop was excellent for providing us with fresh bread and pastries in the morning, and the reception had friendly and accomodating staff (they even called us before we arrived to check everything with our booking was okay). As it’s spring, the campsite was relatively empty, which was really lovely as we were able to watch the bunnies and birds around us. The location is ideal as a place to get to Amsterdam, we used the park and ride as it’s more reliable than the bus, but it is also possible to cycle to the city centre from the campsite. Honestly one of the best campsites I’ve stayed at.

Disliked: Our pitch was grass and therefore slightly uneven (had a few large craters) but didn’t bother us.

Local attractions

Amsterdam – where to start? Well, depending on your interests, there’s (deep breath…) the Rijksmuseum, the Rembrandt Museum, the Van Gogh Museum, the Anne Frank House, the Heineken Experience, canal boat trips, Amsterdam Zoo, the houseboat museum – plus of course stacks of cafés, bars and clubs… best be planning several days (and nights) to take it all in. As enticing as it is, Amsterdam’s not the only attraction around these parts. Those seeking to tick off classic Dutch sights should aim for the Aalsmeer flower auction (10 minutes’ drive), snap windmill pics in Zaanse Schans (15 minutes) and take a tasty trip to the Alkmaar cheese market (35 minutes). If it’s time for a few breaths of sea air, venture to the fishing village of Volendam (35 minutes) to eat by the harbour while locals wander about in traditional dress, or head west to Zandvoort (25 minutes) for beach days, strolls in the sand dunes or watersports including paddleboarding and kitesurfing.
