Center Parcs Het Meerdal

“Hands down beats the UK Centre parks-for one it’s fairly priced!”

Well priced and beautifully clean, well equipped accommodation. Scenery is absolutely beautiful when we went in autumn services, including bike hire was very affordable fairly price.

Well priced and beautifully clean, well equipped accommodation. Scenery is absolutely beautiful when we went in autumn services, including bike hire was very affordable fairly price. Activities were well priced and well managed, easy to book. We would happily have just gone cycled around the beautiful park and swimming in the pool for days! Never going back to an overpriced UK Centre park again! Stopped off at Bruges on the way home to the UK for the day, which was an easy journey and a nice drive.

This was our first centre parcs experience and we were very impressed. We stayed as a family with young children during the last week of August. We stayed in the most basic accommodation ( I think it's called comfort) and we were happy with it. It felt pretty modern, well presented and had all the equipment you would need to cook for yourself if you wanted. The only thing we think could be explained better is the type of consumables you need to bring or buy for your stay. They give you a roll of toilet paper, 3 dishwasher tablets, a couple of cloths, a dishwasher sponge and a few small bin bags. Everything else you'll need to provide. This probably reflects or inexperience in self catered accommodation, but even something like a provided shopping list of what to bring would be an awesome touch. In regards to the towel and bed linen. For the comfort cottage they only provide duvets and pillows (the European style ones that are squarer - English pillow cases may not fit). My wife and I debated about bringing or hiring our own and in the end we decided to hire. Be prepared to spend about £90 for linen and towels for a family of four. For next time we would bring our own bath mat as well. The rest of the park is lovely. There's a good range of things to do, particularly for younger kids. We booked a pony ride for our older daughter and she loved it (probably the only thing that's worth booking in advance to avoid disappointment). The mini disco in the early evening was a hit. The aqua Mondo was great as well. Clean, well maintained and a good range of pools and slides. It was busy but didn't feel overcrowded. There's a good amount of life guards about. We didn't use the supermarket in the centre or try the restaurants so can't comment on that. There are a number of supermarkets all about 15 minutes away by car. Quite a few had the blue line parking system (you need what looks like a disabled parking card) so have a check of Google maps before you head out. Toverland down the road was great for a day trip as well - book in advance for a bit of a discount. Overall we had a lovely stay and would do centre parcs again.

This was our first time staying at a Center Parcs in Europe after having been to a couple in the UK. We were very impressed with the whole experience and would certainly return. Pros - cost of activities (so much cheaper than UK), access around park (very flat), range of activities (so many to choose from), bar and food options (varied and reasonably priced), size (not too big and easy to get around), all staff friendly and speak English, could get laundry done for about €7 washed, dried and delivered back to lodge. Good location to explore other places - we visited PSV Eindhoven and Efteling theme parks. Cons - some people don’t park their cars back in main car park which isn’t massive and the swimming pool not as big as other parks but good for younger children. Cars weren’t a huge issue though and we felt safe walking about the park. Overall we were very impressed and would either come back to Het Meerdal and certainly try other European center Parcs. It was a lovely experience and we made lots of happy memories with our family.
