Sluftervallei

Landal Sluftervallei is a holiday park in the dunes of northern Texel, situated within a nature reserve near the village of De Cocksdorp. The park is operated by Landal GreenParks and offers a range of accommodation types across an extensive site.

Accommodation at Sluftervallei

The park has 316 bungalows, 53 camping pitches, 16 static caravans and 4 safari tents, making it one of the larger parks on Texel. The bungalows sit among the dunes, giving the site a sheltered, wooded feel. The variety of accommodation types means the park caters to guests who prefer a roof overhead as well as those who want a more open-air stay.

Facilities on the grounds

The park has an indoor swimming pool, a bowling alley, a water play area and a brasserie. An activities programme runs throughout the season, providing organised options for guests who want structured leisure. The combination of indoor and outdoor facilities means there is something to fall back on regardless of the weather.

Things to do around De Cocksdorp and northern Texel

The nature reserve De Slufter, a tidal inlet where the sea meets the dunes, lies close to the park and is one of the most distinctive landscapes on the island. Eco-Mare, the seal rescue and nature centre, is worth a visit for anyone interested in the Wadden Sea ecosystem. The wide sandy beach along the northern coast of Texel is within reach and suits a straightforward day out. Boat trips on traditional fishing vessels offer a way to see the island from the water, and cycling routes across the island are well developed and clearly signposted.

Getting to Sluftervallei

Texel is reached by ferry from Den Helder on the Dutch mainland, with crossings running regularly. From the ferry port at 't Horntje in the south of the island, the park is in the north near De Cocksdorp.

Who the park suits

Sluftervallei works well for families with children, given the indoor pool, bowling and play facilities, and for guests who want to combine a nature-focused stay with enough on-site amenities to keep varied interests covered. The range of accommodation also makes it a workable option for groups with different preferences about how they want to sleep.
