Edge-of-Park Escape: The Privacy Perks of Type 6A Bungalows

If you’re dreaming of a peaceful base with easy comfort, the Type 6A bungalows are a smart pick. Most Type 6A bungalows sit toward the edge of the park, creating a quieter setting that many guests prefer, while some are located around the fishing pond for those who like being close to the water. In this guide, you’ll learn what makes edge-of-park Type 6A bungalows different from pond-side versions and how to choose the ambience that fits your stay.

Why Type 6A bungalows are prized for privacy

Type 6A bungalows combine a calm location with easy, single-level living. While individual preferences vary, edge-of-park placements typically mean fewer passers-by and a more secluded feel compared with central waterfront spots. That makes these units especially appealing for readers who value downtime and low-key mornings.

Beyond location, Type 6A bungalows bring practical comforts:

• All rooms on the ground floor — no stairs to navigate.
• Sleeps up to 6 people — ideal for families or small groups.
• Open fireplace — a welcoming focal point for cozy evenings.
• Internet connection — stay connected throughout your stay.
• Bed linen optional — hire at reception if you prefer to travel light.
• Non-smoking — all bungalows are smoke-free.
• Pet flexibility — choose between pet-free and pets-welcome versions.

Tip: A pet-free Type 6A is offered mainly at the park’s edge, while pets-welcome Type 6A units are also available (1 pet per bungalow in designated numbers). If bringing a pet, specific pets-allowed bungalows include B#37–39, 43–45, 46–48, 54 and “Boerderijtje.”

Edge-of-park vs pond-side: which ambience fits you?

Some Type 6A bungalows are around the fishing pond, and there’s also Type 6A Comfort directly at the pond. The table below helps you compare settings so you can match the vibe to your plans.

Notes:

• Around the pond, guests can fish without a permit. The park asks anglers to be considerate of the bungalows nearby so everyone enjoys a relaxed stay.
• If you prefer a two-storey waterside option, Type 6B bungalows are all beside the large fishing pond; several have a storage shed, and parking beside the bungalow is possible.

How edge-of-park stays elevate your downtime

• Fewer transits nearby: Parks naturally have more movement near central amenities. Being by the boundary can mean gentler foot traffic and a calmer feel.
• Easier routine with single-level living: With all rooms on the ground floor, mornings and bedtimes stay simple for families and multi-generational groups.
• Flexible pet choices: Opt for a pet-free unit near the park’s edge or a pets-welcome unit if you’re bringing your four-legged companion.

When pond-side Type 6A (or 6A Comfort) is the better fit

• You enjoy being by the water: Some Type 6A bungalows sit around the fishing pond, and Type 6A Comfort is right at the pond with several extras.
• Fishing is part of your plan: The large central pond lets guests fish freely (no permit required). Keep feeding to a minimum so everyone enjoys the sport year-round.

If you want more space and a two-storey layout by the water, consider Type 6B: all are beside the pond; several include a bicycle storage shed, and parking beside the bungalow is possible.

Practical takeaways to secure your ideal setting

1. Choose your ambience at booking. If you want a quieter base, request an edge-of-park Type 6A. If proximity to the water matters, select pond-side Type 6A or Type 6A Comfort.
2. Pick the right pet policy. Reserve a pet-free Type 6A (mainly at the edge) if you prefer that environment, or a pets-welcome Type 6A (1 pet in designated units) if you’re traveling with a dog.
3. Plan group stays smartly. Booking three adjacent Type 6A homes lets up to 18 people stay close together while retaining privacy, with a 10% discount on the standard Type 6A price.
4. Look for couple savings. The Two-Persons Discount offers 15% off a week and 10% off a weekend or mid-week stay in a bungalow when only two guests occupy it (not valid during school or national holidays; not combinable with other discounts).
5. Check arrival details. Aim to arrive after 15:00 and plan to depart before 10:00. Park one car beside your bungalow; use central parking for a second car.
6. Travel light if you wish. Beds have duvets and bed linen can be hired at reception. All accommodations come with internet.
7. Consider seasons and budgets. In early and late season, you can book a six-person bungalow from approximately €300 for a long weekend.
8. Preview the layout. The park’s Park plan helps you visualize where edge-of-park and pond-side accommodations sit.
9. Love fishing? You don’t need a permit on the on-site pond. Please keep feeding minimal and be mindful of nearby bungalows.
