How to plan your charging during your stay
Smart planning keeps your itinerary smooth and stress-free. Here’s how to make the most of the on-site EV stations from booking to checkout.
Before you book
- Add a note about your EV: When reserving your pitch or accommodation, let us know you’re bringing an electric car. This helps our team factor charging into your stay.
- Pick the right stay for your style: From glamping tents to cabins, choose the space that matches your routine while your car tops up nearby:
On arrival and during your stay
- Have your charging card ready: Our stations work with a charging card (laadpas). Follow the instructions at the station to start and stop your session.
- Plan around your check-in/out: With check-in from 15:00 and check-out by 11:00, it’s easy to schedule a charge when you arrive or while you pack up. If you need more flexibility, early check-in (from 11:00) or late check-out (until 15:00) is available for €10, based on availability.
- Be considerate: Move your car when charging is complete so others can use the point.
Respecting quiet hours
- Quiet hours run from 22:00 to 07:00. EVs charge quietly, but please keep any activity around the stations low-key and be mindful of neighbors during these times.
Make the most of your time while you charge
Charging time is quality time when everything you need is close by. Here are relaxed, low-effort ways to enjoy the campsite and surroundings while your car tops up.
- Unwind at the bistro: On-site bistro service runs 1–2 times per week in the low season and almost daily in high season—perfect for a bite while you wait.
- Pick up fresh bread: Use the bread service to start your morning right as your battery climbs.
- Let kids explore safely: Play areas are spread across the campsite, so little ones can have fun within easy reach.
- Join the fun in high season: Our Dutch-speaking recreation team hosts friendly activities for kids, teens, and families.
- Stretch your legs: With nature all around, a short walk or easy cycle is always on the menu.
- Go car-free for the day: With a train station 700 m away and the town center about 900 m from the campsite, you can enjoy cafés, errands, or mini-excursions without moving the car.
Why on-site EV stations elevate a nature-first holiday
- Less time detouring, more time outdoors: On-site charging turns downtime into relaxation, not errands.
- Quieter travel experience: EVs help keep the ambience calm—great for families and couples seeking a peaceful break.
- Better local air quality: Zero tailpipe emissions mean fresher air where you stay and play.
- Seamless daily rhythm: Charge when it fits—on arrival, during dinner at the bistro, or while the kids enjoy activities.
