  • 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.

Liked Wir hatten einen sehr angenehmen Aufenthalt auf dem Campingplatz in Amstelveen. Die Anlage ist schön ruhig gelegen, trotzdem ist man mit dem Fahrrad oder den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln schnell in Amsterdam. Die sanitären Anlagen waren sauber und wurden regelmäßig gereinigt. Die Stellplätze waren gepflegt und grün, perfekt zum Entspannen. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Auch die Nähe zur Natur hat uns gut gefallen – ideal zum Radfahren und Spazierengehen.

Disliked Es gab eigentlich nichts wirklich Negatives.

Powered grass travel trailer, tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Cleanliness of shower block, nice family environment, also respectful and friendly atmosphere. Helpful and friendly staff at reception.
Lovely green and natural surroundings, with lots of trees.

Disliked Not a dislike for us (being close to a popular city will inevitably have some noise issues), but airport and road noise is noticeable during the day and evening, particularly if you are on a pitch parallel to the artery road into Amsterdam. It didn't bother us though, as we picked the campsite primarily to visit Amsterdam, and staying in town would have been noisy anyway, and far more expensive!

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.
