Discover a Peaceful Retreat Surrounded by Nature
This holiday park is nestled amidst three stunning natural areas: the Mantingerzand, known for its shifting sands and grazing Scottish Highland cows; the Geeserstroomgebied, a unique and picturesque landscape; and the juniper-filled Mantingerzand. The park gets its name from a Bronze Age relic, the "Bronze Bucket," discovered in Meppen’s Es fields, showcasing the region’s historical allure. Adjacent to the charming village of Meppen, known for its traditional thatched-roof farms and majestic oak trees, this location offers tranquility and lush greenery.
The area is a haven for nature enthusiasts, attracting hikers, cyclists, horseback riders, active seniors, and anyone seeking peace.
