Vodatent at Vakantiepark De Bonte Vlucht

Local town Doorn was a Viking stronghold in the ninth century and there’s a fair bit of history to delve into around town and its surroundings. The main attraction is Huis Doorne, the former stately home of Wilhelm II and now a national museum. A 10-minute drive away, Amerongen Castle is where Wilhelm II lived before his move to Huis Doorne (and where he signed his abdication notice); within 15 minutes, Dutch history of a different kind can be investigated at De Weistaar farm, where you can have a ride in a covered wagon or have a traditional game of boerengolf. Pah to all that? Let the kids loose at Henschotermeer lake beach (10 minutes), Ouwehand or Dierenpark Amersfoort zoos (both 20 minutes), or for a nicely odd time playing glow in the dark golf at Glowgolf Houten, also 20 minutes away.
