Once The Netherlands was the home of knights and ladies. An era long ago; an age of legends, heroism and mystery. These are the ingredients for a tasteful and daring design of Recreation Park De Berckt. Here the children are inspired to revive the glorious life of the knights. They defend the fort, court ladies, and go out every day for new adventures and exciting experiences. And there are jesters. Like true circus entertainers they provide comedy, fun and acrobatics. Welcome to Circus De Berckt!

The camping meadow is crammed with activity. Everyone is finding their spot. Nice in the sun, or perhaps a bit more in the shade: whatever you want. Children scoot about on the park’s go-carts; very helpful when some quick shopping is needed from the richly stocked supermarket. Under parasols and in comfortable hammocks guests devour books, magazines and papers. Barbecue aromas tickle the olfactory nerves. And soon the whole family is enjoying a delicious meal of fish, meat and vegetables. And who is cooking this time? Dad is, while mum looks on approvingly!

Those completely under the spell of castles, and everything associated with that era, will opt for a stay at a genuine Castle Chalet. After a day of exploring the natural surroundings of De Berckt – obviously on horseback and by covered wagon – the real knights get back their strength. The river Maas meanders through the endless landscape. There is time for tall stories about the adventures of that day. At night all sleep like logs under the soft, white sheets.
