We are Rijk and Geke van Dam from Barneveld. We have both recently stopped paid work, but both are doing more volunteer work. We love to travel, (Rijk is tour guide) with Israel as favorite destination. Our chalet 'Vogelijn' is our pride, because it is such a wonderful place to have a holiday in your own country. And that is why we are happy to make it available to anyone who wants to recreate in the Veluwe and enjoy the beautiful nature and facilities of the Kingfisher. Welcome!

We really enjoyed the time in Mr. and Mrs. van Dam's cottage. It was nice and close to our oldest sons living nearby. Everything was fun. Unfortunately, the outdoor pool at the holiday park was in cultivation, so we couldn't us...

Compared to other cottages we rented before, we felt really warm welcome here. So much extra care has been taken to give that nice holiday feeling. It was fine.

Dear Heleen and Hans, thank you so much for this nice review. Of course, being in a park is always different from being in the great outdoors. You were welcome guests

Upon returning to the Netherlands, this family stayed in our Vogelijn for the first month. They left the bungalow neatly tidy. The deviating score for hygiene was caused by a leak, which has since been exacerbated.

This spring we were already guests in Vogelijn for a week. That experience made us want to come back again. Geke and Rijk do everything to make their guests feel at home. An offhand remark this spring that I was missing a tea s...
