Planning Your Stay with a Baby: Practical Tips
Make the most of your time together with these straightforward, parent-approved ideas.
Save space when you pack
- With high chairs, travel cots, and baby baths available for free, leave bulky items at home.
- For day trips in nature, a light backpack with water, snacks, sunscreen, and suitable clothing is typically all you need. In winter, add a warm layer and a thermos. On site, sticks, stones, sand, and leaves provide all the play equipment children need.
Time arrivals and departures around naps
- Check-in starts at 14:00 for camping pitches and 15:00 for rental accommodations.
- Check-out is by 12:00 for camping pitches and 10:00 for rentals.
- If you need more flexibility, early check-in or late check-out may be possible, but only on the day itself and directly via reception, subject to availability.
Keep routines simple in your accommodation
- In rental stays, bed linen and towels are supplied for each guest (beds are not made upon arrival), which helps streamline bedtime with little ones.
Build your days around nature play (0–4 years)
- For 0–2 years: short, sensory-rich moments work best—let babies feel sand slip through fingers, touch leaves, listen to birds and wind, and watch light and shadow.
- For 2–4 years: try sorting leaves, using sticks as “tools”, building a simple hut or corner, a mini-safari, a shadow play, or filling a nature basket.
- Wind-down idea for any age: cloud watching—lie back, spot shapes, tell stories, compare colors, and relax between activities.
Explore more together
- Check the activity programme for guided nature walks offered at select times.
- Use the Eropuit section to discover seasonal events in Castricum and the wider North Holland region.
Booking Checklist for Parents
- Add a request for baby gear (high chair, travel cot, baby bath) during booking or contact reception in advance.
- Decide whether you prefer a car-free pitch or a pitch with on-pitch parking.
- Note check-in/out times and consider day-of early check-in/late check-out via reception if needed.
- Download the Camping Geversduin app to manage your stay and register for activities.
- Plan simple meals: pick up fresh bread from 08:00 at the Centrumplein minimarket or breakfast at Knoest.
- Bring a small daypack for nature play; let the dunes provide the toys.
