This tranquil coastal village offers pristine beaches where you can watch spectacular North Sea sunsets or try windsurfing lessons. Families love exploring the nearby Bergen Woods nature reserve with its walking paths and the Sea Aquarium with touch pools for kids.
The staff were amazing! Very helpful, friendly and kind. The room was very clean. Breakfast was a traditional Dutch breakfast. My only suggestion would be for a hair dryer to be in the room. It was a hassle to always go ask to use one.

There's no way you can stay in a genuine centuries-old castle without spending a fortune unless you come here. It's a phenomenal find. To climb up a stairway designed for sword fighting, to wander grounds and gardens that are being tended in ancient fashion, it's just a one-of-a-kind experience. Yes, it's a hostel, and you'll be sleeping in bunk beds possibly with three hundred teenage bicyclists (though they do have family rooms) and yes the rooms can feel a little spartan albeit very clean....
