In Friesland, you go on the water

If the name of the park literally means "between the lakes," then you know you won't escape the water. The recreation park is situated on the Meine Sleat, which forms a connection between the Sneekermeer and the Pikmeer. It is possible to rent a sloop or motorboat at Tusken de Marren to explore Friesland's water paradise. The Sneekermeer is one of the most famous lakes in Friesland. There is plenty of water fun to be had here, especially in the summer months. Learn to water ski or sail, go supping or canoeing and of course, you can always take a refreshing dip. And are you staying at Glamping in Friesland in August? Then take a look at the 'Sneekweek', Europe's largest inland water sailing event.

Delicious food at Picknickers

For a tasty breakfast, lunch, dinner, or drink on the terrace, Picknickers is the place to be. This hip food bar is located in Terherne, about 6 km from the glamping in Akkrum. Enjoy the delicious dishes from the ever-changing menu and the beautiful view over the Sneekermeer Lake. You can go there for a classic carbonara but also for an Indian yellow curry or a vega hair salon. The food bar lives up to its name by offering many of its products on the go. So load up your picnic basket and enjoy all the goodies they lovingly prepare for you at Picknickers at one of the other beautiful locations in Friesland.

    This was the second time and just as nice as the first time. Hospitable and friendly welcome. Saturday morning it was very slippery and just when I wanted to get my delicious fresh sandwiches at the reception, the friendly lady came to bring my sandwiches. Because it was so slippery. That's what I call customer-oriented and service-oriented. A big 10 !

    Dit was de tweede keer en net zo fijn als de eerste keer. Gastvrij en vriendelijk ontvangen. Zaterdagochtend was het erg glad en net toen ik mijn heerlijke verse broodjes wilde gaan halen bij de receptie kwam de vriendelijke dame mijn broodjes brengen. Omdat het zo glad was. Dat noem ik klantgericht en servicegericht. Een dikke 10 !

    nice and quiet park. unfortunately the heating was off when we entered our house. it took over 6 hours to heat up from 11 degrees to 21. Strange when you are asked to put the heating on 15 degrees when you leave. Beds ware not made until later the day. No towels available. 1 roll of toiletpaper. The tiles outside were very slippery, luckely we did not fall. A bit sad, as we paid a huge amount to stay here for two days.

    Our stay at Tusken de marren was excellent! The house was spacious with nice, comfortable furnishings. From here we could cozily visit our family and in-laws during Christmas. In addition, the dining area was a nice place to play games.

    Ons verblijf op Tusken de marren is ons prima bevallen! Het huis was ruim met een mooie, comfortabele inrichting. Van hieruit konden we tijdens Kerst gezellig onze familie en schoonfamilie bezoeken. Bovendien was de eethoek een fijne plek om spelletjes te doen.
