Duinrell – Anywhere to swap a book while staying?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026There’s a book exchange shelf in the Eurocamp office, and there’s also a small book swap box near the food plaza – both worth checking if you want to swap something to read.
Duinrell – Are dogs allowed at Duinrell? 🐕
Last Updated: July 30, 2026Yes. Dogs are permitted throughout the resort. You can bring maximum of 2 doggies for a price ( at time of writing was €48 for 5 days for one dog ) and were available in 6 Berth Duingalows , not 8. Pets are welcome in the Park and surrounding forests and dunes. Pets must: Pets...
Duinrell – Are laundry facilities available at Duinrell?
Last Updated: July 30, 2026Yes. Washing machines and dryers are available on-site. When we visited, the prices were: The washing machines appeared to dispense detergent automatically. However, we added one of our own laundry capsules and had no issues.
Duinrell – Are Premium 3-Bedroom accommodations grouped together, or mixed in with other accommodation types?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026If booked through Eurocamp, these tend to be positioned toward the back of the Eiland area – it’s worth requesting a premium unit with lounge decking specifically if that matters to you.
Duinrell – Are there any hidden costs when booking Duinrell through Eurocamp?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Swimming is the main one – it’s listed on the website but easy to miss when you’re booking. If you’re going with Eurocamp, Premium Plus is worth the upgrade for the location, cleanliness, wifi and AC, and it comes with bedding and towels included.
Duinrell – Are there big screens on-site showing major sports events like football internationals or the hurling final?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Yes – there’s a large screen at the end of the on-site bar, and extra screens have been set up in the downstairs pub for big matches. If you’re after a specific fixture, it’s worth asking at the bar directly or checking with them ahead of time, since coverage depends on what’s being shown that...
Duinrell – Are there plenty of plug sockets in the Lodge Tents, and is it worth bringing extension leads or fans?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Plug sockets are generally sufficient, but pack an extension lead or two so you only need a couple of travel adaptors between you – handy for chargers, fans, and anything else you want running at once. Fans are worth bringing for warm nights, especially for a kids’ room.
Duinrell – Are you allowed more than one tent per pitch when camping?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026It’s common to see more than one tent on a pitch as long as everything fits within your allocated zone – there doesn’t seem to be strict enforcement on the number, just on staying within your space.
Duinrell – At the Arcade ; Cards , Credit and Cashing in tokens
Last Updated: July 30, 2026Where do i get an Arcade card? You get a card when you check-in , it has 15 credits on it which will get you a few games. You can also get a card when you go to the arcade top up machines , they are ( unfortunately! ) very easy to use. You use...
Duinrell – Can Eurocamp store your luggage if you arrive before your accommodation is ready, or need to leave it after checkout?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Yes – the Eurocamp office has stored luggage free of charge both on early arrival (so you can use the park while you wait) and after checkout on departure day, letting you get a few more hours out of the park before you have to leave. This is generally a better option than paying to...
Duinrell – Can you book padel courts on-site, and what does it cost?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Yes, padel courts can be booked on-site – it’s around 5 euro for the court, plus a refundable deposit of about 50 euro for rackets and balls.
Duinrell – Can you check in early, or use the on-site facilities before your accommodation is ready?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Sometimes your accommodation is ready earlier than the standard check-in time and reception will send you straight there – it’s worth asking when you arrive. If it’s not ready yet, you can generally still check in, get your wristbands, and use the facilities while you wait. You can check in your bags at the bag...
Duinrell – Can you check in without every member of your party being present (e.g. someone arriving a day later)?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Yes – not everyone in your group needs to be there for check-in. Bring a printed photo for anyone who’ll arrive later so their admission pass can be sorted in advance.
Duinrell – Can you get bed rails and a potty for young children, like you can with Eurocamp?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Yes – bunk beds come with extra safety rails, and a toilet-training seat insert is provided too.
Duinrell – Can you use the park after you checkout ? What about parking?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026In practice there’s some flexibility around the 10:30 checkout – dropping your key back within the hour afterwards isn’t usually a problem. You can often leave your car in the spot you’ve used all stay and keep using the facilities for the rest of the day, as long as you leave a green sheet visible...
Duinrell – Comfort vs Premium accommodation – which is worth the extra money?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Book the best you can afford. Comfort accommodation has come in for consistent criticism as tired and not especially clean, while Premium Plus is reliably described as lovely, spacious and well worth the upgrade if it’s within budget.
Duinrell – Do any Duinrell accommodations include a BBQ, and can you buy or hire one on-site?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Most direct-booked accommodation, including premium Duinglows, doesn’t come with a BBQ as standard – though most kitchens do have an induction hob for regular cooking. You’re allowed to bring and use your own BBQ if you’d rather not go without – cheap coal ones or single-use foil tray BBQs are common choices. You can also...
Duinrell – Do they hire tag-along bikes or kid-friendly tandems for less confident young cyclists?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Yes – tag-along attachments are available for hire and work well, and tandem bikes with a kid-friendly rear section have also been used successfully. It’s worth booking these online ahead of your visit if you know you’ll want one, since they’re popular.
Duinrell – Do you need air conditioning if visiting mid-September?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Generally no – by mid-September temperatures have cooled off enough that air con isn’t essential, though it’s always worth checking the forecast closer to your trip.
Duinrell – Do you need cash on-site at Duinrell, or is card enough?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Card covers almost everything – the site is set up for card payments throughout, including the arcade and shops, and buses are tap on/tap off with a card (each person needs their own card, so get kids their own if using something like Revolut Kids). That said, it’s worth carrying a bit of cash: despite...
Duinrell – Does ‘just Premium’ accommodation have air con, or is that only in Premium Plus?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Air con is generally only included from Premium Plus (5-person) and up – standard Premium accommodation typically doesn’t have it, though you may find a thermostat on the wall for central heating. Premium units still tend to have nice touches like a shady patio area, so it’s not a bad option if air con isn’t...
Duinrell – Does anyone know how to put the air con on in the kids’ rooms? We’re staying in a Duingalow but only have air con in the kitchen and main bedroom.
Last Updated: August 11, 2026The Duingalow doesn’t have a separate air con unit in the kids’ rooms. Run the kitchen/living room unit on full and leave the bedroom doors open so the cool air circulates through – close the curtains when you’re out to keep the heat down. If your accommodation is missing air con or a fan you...
Duinrell – Does the 6-person Premium Plus Duingalow kitchen have a hob, oven, microwave and toaster?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Yes – hob and oven, plus a microwave and toaster tucked away in a cupboard/press.
Duinrell – Does the accommodation have a TV, and can you get British channels?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026It varies by accommodation – some units have a smart TV that a firestick will work on straight away, while others (even within the same accommodation grade) are older, non-smart sets. Don’t rely on the TV being smart; bring a streaming stick and load it up with what the kids like rather than relying on...
Duinrell – Duingalow 6 person aircon Help
Last Updated: August 4, 2026It should be easier to use this , it isnt. Follow these steps to hopefully get you cooled down “ Press the top-right On/Off button. Press the bottom-right Mode button repeatedly until Cool or the snowflake symbol appears. Use the up/down buttons on the circular pad to set about 18–20°C. Press the bottom-left fan button...
Duinrell – Has anyone done the haunted hotel activity (on Fridays)? Is it suitable for ages 13 and over?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026It’s a forest-based activity where you work through clues in groups, murder-mystery style – it runs on Fridays and suits teens well.
Duinrell – How busy does the park get in late August, and does it quiet down once Dutch schools go back?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Generally manageable even in late August, with queues rarely described as a major problem. It does thin out further once the relevant Dutch region’s school holidays end – regional return dates vary year to year, so it’s worth checking the current school holiday calendar for the area if timing your visit around lighter crowds matters...
Duinrell – How do bottle and can refunds work?
Last Updated: July 30, 2026Refundable bottles and cans can be returned at the Duinrell supermarket. There were two options during our visit. Outside the supermarket: The refund could be transferred electronically to a bank account. This required a smartphone and a euro-compatible bank account. Inside the supermarket: The indoor machine issued a voucher that could be spent in the...
Duinrell – How do you find out your accommodation number, and how do you get there from reception if you don’t have a car?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026You typically find out your accommodation name or number when you check in, not before you travel – there’s usually a sign with your name waiting at reception, and check-in itself tends to be quick with no real queue. If you’re without a car, you make your own way from reception to your accommodation on...
Duinrell – How does Duinrell compare to French or Italian campsites (like Bella Italia)?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026It holds up well as a different kind of holiday rather than a lesser one. The rides and water park are great fun, the village is lovely with good restaurants, the cycle paths are excellent, and the ride to the beach is a real highlight. One difference from some French/Italian sites: pool access here isn’t...
Duinrell – How does Duinrell work for families with autistic or ADHD children, and is the access card accepted? Are there places for them to burn off energy, like football?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Yes, the access card is accepted, and queues in the theme park tend to be short enough that it isn’t a major issue anyway. For burning off energy, go-karts are a big hit, there’s a large sand hill near the tennis courts at the back of the park that kids love running down, and there...
Duinrell – How does recycling work at Duinrell – where do plastic trays, paper and card go?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Recycling on-site is limited – you’ll find bins for glass and machines for cans and plastic bottles, but general plastics like fruit trays and paper/card mostly just go into the large general waste bins rather than being separated out.
Duinrell – How good is the wifi, especially for teenagers with several devices?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026It’s decent rather than exceptional – fine for everyday use and streaming, though there’s typically a cap of around 6 devices logged in at once, which is worth knowing if you’ve got a family full of phones, tablets and laptops.
Duinrell – How much are the bunk beds in a Premium Plus (sleeps 6) able to fit a taller teenager?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026They’re on the smaller side – great for younger children, but a taller teenager (around 5’10”) will only just fit, so it’s worth thinking about who sleeps where if you’ve got older kids in the group.
Duinrell – If arriving with Eurocamp, do you drive straight to the Eurocamp office, or park in the main car park first?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Park in the main car park and walk in to check in at Eurocamp reception rather than trying to drive straight to the Eurocamp office – security doesn’t always let you drive in, and manoeuvring back out through the entrance afterwards can be tricky if you do get through.
Duinrell – If you didn’t order enough bed linen, can you buy more from reception/check-in?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Reception doesn’t usually stock linen since it’s pre-ordered, but there are two shops within a 10-minute walk that sell it. You can also *hire* extra linen from main reception with a 50 euro refundable deposit, at 18 euro per set.
Duinrell – Is bike hire worth it, or is the site walkable without one?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026The site itself is compact and everything is within about a 5-minute walk, so you don’t strictly need a bike to get around – and bikes aren’t allowed in the theme park area anyway. That said, plenty of people hold off for the first couple of days and then end up getting bikes anyway, finding...
Duinrell – Is Duinrell actually clean, and is there a real problem with ants, rats or wasps? Are the staff helpful?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026It’s a forest site, so a few ants and the odd wasp are normal rather than a red flag – nothing worse than that is typical. Cleanliness around the playground and food areas can look a little messy at times, mostly down to litter left by school groups and seagulls going after food scraps, but...
Duinrell – Is Duinrell cashless?
Last Updated: July 30, 2026The majority of Duinrell shops and restaurants were not completely cashless during our visit. No one declined cash when we tried to pay anywhere in the park , a little different to Center Parcs Payment policies can change, but bringing both a bank card and some cash gives you more flexibility.
Duinrell – Is Duinrell suitable for a family holiday?
Last Updated: July 30, 2026Yes. We found plenty to entertain children of different ages, with rides, swimming, organised activities and several family attractions nearby. Our children were aged 9,13,15 and we all found something they enjoyed. The 9 year old loved the water fountain the most ! The 15 year old loved the Falcon!
Duinrell – Is parking close to the newer wellness 2-person Duingalows by the river?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Generally yes – parking has been reported as around a minute’s walk or closer for these units, though the exact distance can vary a little depending on which specific Duingalow you’re allocated.
Duinrell – Is the citronella candle for keeping flies away only meant to be used at night, and is it worth bringing citronella coils if camping near Lindenveld for mosquitoes?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Citronella candles and coils are a good idea generally, not just after dark. If you’re camping on the edge of Lindenveld, mosquitoes aren’t usually a big problem.
Duinrell – Is theft an issue on-site – should you keep a close eye on belongings?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026There have been periodic reports of items going missing – bikes, scooters, gas cylinders and belongings left unattended near rides or pools. It’s sensible to keep valuables and equipment with you or properly secured rather than leaving them unattended for any length of time, especially around busy attractions – the same common-sense precautions you’d take...
Duinrell – Is there a chemist on-site, or where’s the nearest doctor if a child is unwell?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Kruidvat (a Dutch drugstore) is on the main street in town, though it’s worth checking opening hours as it isn’t always open. For anything more urgent, or if you’re not sure where to turn, contact the on-site security cabin – they’re able to help point you toward appropriate medical support.
Duinrell – Is there a list of all Height restrictions for rides?
Last Updated: August 20, 2026There is now. We’ve compiled these , so always check the Duinrell link ( we’ve given you that too ) to be sure , to be sure! You may also see a situation where one member of staff will allow a child , and another wont. We saw that multiple times – so dont be...
Duinrell – Is there a quieter or less busy time for the theme park rides, e.g. for on-site guests once day visitors have left?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Tuesday and Friday evenings have extended opening until 9pm. On some evenings each week, once day guests have left, a handful of rides reopen for on-site guests only – check the Duinrell app for exactly which evenings and rides this applies to during your stay.
Duinrell – Is there an iron you can rent on-site?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Worth asking at reception when you check in – it’s not something I’ve confirmed.
Duinrell – Is there EV charging on-site, and how does it work?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Yes – on-site chargers need a chargepass (a card you tap at the charger), but there are also public chargers a short walk away in a car park just across the road (turn left at the gate) that only need a bank card, with free parking while you charge. Tesla fast chargers nearby have also...
Duinrell – Is there still a paper activity schedule available, and is bingo still on?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Yes – you’ll get a paper schedule when you check in, there’s also a board in the plaza showing what’s on, and the same information is duplicated in the Duinrell app.
Duinrell – Is Wonderland and the Kwakus Kwebbel show still running, and is much open, in September?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Yes – everything is still open in September, just running on a slightly reduced schedule. The theme park typically closes around 4pm on weekdays in September (later cycles of shows are high-season only), while the water park stays open until around 10pm, and the restaurants in the nearby town are fully open.
Duinrell – Should I bring table tennis bats and balls?
Last Updated: July 30, 2026Bringing your own table tennis bats may save money. The bats cost €15 inside Duinrell during our stay, while similar sets were available in shops ( Jumbo ) outside for about a €5.
Duinrell – Should I download the Duinrell app?
Last Updated: July 30, 2026Yes. Downloading the Duinrell app before arriving will make it easier to plan your stay. The app includes: Apple – https://apps.apple.com/us/app/duinrell-official/id6746485696 Android – https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.duinrell.aio
Duinrell – Staying in a Duinrell-owned Comfort O’Hara – do they have BBQs, and if not what cooking facilities do they have?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Direct-booked accommodation doesn’t come with a BBQ. The Comfort O’Hara has a gas hob and a combi oven/microwave instead.
Duinrell – What are people’s experiences of the 6-person lodge tents? Is bed linen provided or does it need to be ordered separately?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Bed linen for the lodge tents needs to be ordered as an extra rather than being included – factor that into your booking. Premium bungalows elsewhere on-site tend to be central yet quiet, without much noise from neighbouring pitches.
Duinrell – What are the pros and cons of booking through Eurocamp vs directly with Duinrell?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Eurocamp accommodation tends to be smaller and pitched closer together than direct-booked accommodation, which some families find too tight for comfort, though it works well if you just want a simple base. Direct-booked Premium Plus accommodation is generally more spacious, with a covered outdoor dining area and more room to spread out, and comes with...
Duinrell – What happens if you arrive late in the evening (e.g. around 9pm) for Eurocamp check-in?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Let Eurocamp know in advance if your arrival time changes to the evening, since their reception will be closed by then. You’ll do an emergency check-in at the main security office instead, then go back to the Eurocamp office the next morning to complete the formal check-in. Bike hire also won’t be open that late,...
Duinrell – What should you do if you lose something on-site, or find something that isn’t yours?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Hand any found items in to reception, and check there first if something’s gone missing – it’s the official lost property point. Bar staff in the arcade have also acted as a handy secondary drop-off point for things like found bank cards. It’s also worth having a look around the site yourself, since items do...
Duinrell – What size bike should you rent if you’re tall – is it better to wait and choose on-site?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Wait and rent on arrival rather than pre-booking sizes – there’s plenty of stock so you won’t be stuck, and you can try before you commit. If you do pre-book, don’t be afraid to swap on-site if the fit isn’t right, and check kids’ bikes have normal brakes rather than reverse-pedal ones.
Duinrell – Where are the official FAQ’s?
Last Updated: July 30, 2026Duinrell has information all over its website , and its why you landed here. Its hard to find some specifics – but they do have a great FAQ section at https://www.duinrell.com/faq and rules are at https://www.duinrell.com/regulations.
Duinrell – Where do you dispose of rubbish, and are there bins near the accommodation?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Yes – large bins and skips are dotted around the site and marked on the Duinrell app map, usually within easy reach of each accommodation area.
Duinrell – Where is the Eurocamp premium accommodation located on-site?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026All Eurocamp accommodation, including the premium options, is in the Middenveld area of the park.
Duinrell – Where’s the cheapest place to hire bikes?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Hiring on-site is usually the simplest option, and the rate improves the longer you rent for, so it’s worth booking for your full stay rather than day by day if you know you’ll want them. If you’re only there briefly, it’s not generally worth trying to buy a bike second-hand and resell it – the...
Duinrell – Will I need ant powder?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026It depends where you’re pitched – some spots get more ants than others, and it can be an issue even in the accommodation itself, not just tents. Bring a small bottle of vinegar-and-water spray as a first line of defence (it works well if you don’t mind the smell), and pick up proper ant powder...
Food – Any lists of great family restaurant near Duinrell?
Last Updated: July 31, 2026A few local favourites near Duinrell that we’d happily recommend ( and others have done too ) – Also note that some delivery themselves or via “Just Eat” style couriers . Download their app and have a look as others may be there – we searched in July 2026 and included links we found but...
Food – Are there vegan, dairy-free or allergy-friendly options?
Last Updated: July 30, 2026Anyone with a food allergy, intolerance or strict dietary requirement should ask how the food is prepared before ordering. At one restaurant , we saw a vegan burger placed in the same fryer as a chicken product. Anyone concerned about cross-contamination should speak directly to staff rather than relying only on the menu description.
Food – We just landed and would love something quick.
Last Updated: July 31, 2026The “La Place” is right smack in the middle of the park and is lovely for quick pannini , pizza slice , sandwich etc. We had pizza slices withing minutes of arriving due to early flight etc. You can sit outside and let the kids play – or sit in and relax , its lovely....
Food – What happens if we need food after hours?

General – Any tips on cycling safety in Dutch towns and cities?
Last Updated: August 20, 2026Bikes move fast and are genuinely everywhere, so when walking around towns, shopping centres, beaches or cities like The Hague, stick to the right-hand side of paths and cycle lanes as a default. It’s worth talking younger or easily-distracted children through this before heading into busier areas, since it’s not always obvious to visitors.
General – Anywhere nearby with a dart board?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Rickies Feest is a good bet, and there’s also a darts area in the on-site pub under the food plaza.
General – Are the trees affected by pine processionary caterpillars, and is it a concern if you’re bringing a dog?
Last Updated: August 11, 2026Not something visitors have reported noticing on-site, but these caterpillars are a genuine seasonal risk in parts of Europe, mainly in spring, and can cause a nasty reaction in dogs if touched or inhaled. If you’re travelling with a dog and concerned, it’s worth checking a current local pest advisory for the region and time...
General – Do public toilets charge an entrance fee?

Last Updated: August 11, 2026Sometimes, yes – public toilets in shopping centres, train stations and fast-food restaurants in the wider area can charge a small fee, typically 50 cents to 1 euro. Keep some coins handy when you’re out and about off-site.

Last Updated: August 11, 2026Yes – Aerofit is a well-equipped, fairly standard gym with day and week memberships available, a reasonable option if you want to keep up a routine during your stay.
Pool – Can I find additional Tiki Pool voucher codes?
Last Updated: July 30, 2026Possibly. Families sometimes share unused swimming codes in Duinrell visitor groups or community pages before checking out. It may be worth checking these groups towards the end of the week, particularly if you would like to book an additional swimming session. If someone posts an image of the codes on a page , dont be...
Pool – How do the Eurocamp Tiki Pool vouchers work?
Last Updated: July 30, 2026Eurocamp guests receive swimming voucher codes when they arrive. You can enter the codes through the app or scan the QR code provided on the voucher sheet. You then select the pool, date and available time slot. The vouchers provide discounted admission rather than free swimming.
Pool – How much does the Tiki Pool cost with a Eurocamp voucher?
Last Updated: July 30, 2026When we visited during the first week of July , the discounted prices were: Swimming can therefore be a significant additional cost for larger families. We stayed for seven nights and received four voucher codes. The number provided may depend on the length of the booking. See the Duinrell App for more .
Pool – Is the Tiki Pool safe – Are Lifeguards on Duty?
Last Updated: July 30, 2026We felt that lifeguards were not always as visible as we had expected ( like Center Parcs ) , with staff sometimes appearing to supervise several areas . You will hear the whistle going regularly. They are watching , but I feel they are a little under staffed for Life guards. We also noticed regular...
Pool – Is the Tiki Pool suitable for younger children?
Last Updated: August 10, 2026The Tiki Pool is exciting, but families with younger children or less confident swimmers should explore the pool area together before using the slides. Some slides finish in deep water, and the warning signs may not always be immediately obvious to an excited child. Before swimming, consider: This may be especially helpful for children with...
Prep – Do I need passport photos for the Duinrell admission cards?
Last Updated: July 30, 2026Small identification photos will be needed for the Duinrell admission cards, so bringing passport-sized photos can save time and money. Security will check these when you pass back and forth at the Security Desk of the park. No one asked us for them any other time. Originally I was going to take pictures and order...
Prep – What should I bring from home?
Last Updated: July 30, 2026Bring the everyday household and kitchen products you are likely to use during a self-catering holiday. Useful items include: These products are available locally, but buying everything after arriving can become expensive.
Shopping – Is it expensive to buy groceries inside Duinrell?
Last Updated: July 30, 2026The resort shops are handy, but we found many snacks, drinks and everyday items more expensive than those in the nearby supermarket. For a longer stay, consider doing a larger grocery shop at the beginning of the holiday at Jumbo. Reusable bags, backpacks or a small wheeled suitcase can make carrying everything back easier.
Shopping – Is there a Super Market nearby or should I shop in Duinrell Superstore?
Last Updated: July 30, 2026The Duinrell Superstore is great for Fresh bread and croissants. But for a bigger shop , would recommend Jumbo in Wassenaar. Its good everything you need. Its a short walk , and shorter cycle. https://www.duinrell.com/holiday-park/facilities/superstore Its about 10mins walk from centre of Duinrell
