4th year running and still not bored

This was our fourth year in a row visiting Delftse Hout for 2 weeks from July 8th- 23rd and we were afraid we may have exhausted all the area had to offer but how wrong we were. The site met with the standards of the previous visits in all aspects- staff courtesy, nothing too much trouble, facilities spotless etc. Having visited all the usual tourist haunts on previous stays ( Den Haag, Gouda, Amsterdam and so on) we made good use of the cycle route map we'd purchased from the Tourist Info shop in Delft on our 2013 visit for €6 and plotted a few scenic cycle rides of our own. It really is simple & if you've never done it- give it a go. Jot down the numbers of your chosen route from the map then off you go and follow the green & white signs with the corresponding numbers. We found a beautiful route to Maassluis, which is a pretty place a stones throw from Hoek van Holland and therefore too close to be overused as a stop off point for visitors disembarking, which took us along canals most of the 10 miles, through Schipluiden and other small villages/hamlets with stunning scenery and wildlife to view along the way (as well as the odd greenhouse or two!). We are definitely booking again for next year and already looking for more routes to try when we get there. Delft itself is a city we never tire of and are still finding parts tucked away which we never knew were there. We cannot really praise the site or the area highly enough. The only slight drawback is that the "Camping Kids Club" can be a little noisy and boisterous at times but mainly at the twice daily roundup (basically the Pied Piper on a bicycle) but it keeps the children occupied and isn't really an issue unless you're the seriously grumpy type who resents anyone enjoying themselves in which case this is not the site for you anyway.
