Landal

Landal's history began in 1954, when Dutch insurance company Nillmij purchased the holiday park Rabbit Hill, originally intended to provide accommodation for its own staff. The park proved too large for that purpose alone, so the bungalows were opened to the wider public. That decision worked, and became the first step on the Landal journey.

From a single park to a European network

What started with one park in the Netherlands expanded internationally in 1965 with the first park in Germany. In 1996, Aegon decided that operating bungalows fell outside its core activities and sold the business to a group of investors, after which the activities continued under the Landal name, adding parks across the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and Austria in the years that followed.

Nature at the centre

Landal's parks are designed around low density development that blends into their natural surroundings, offering guests accommodation ranging from:

• Bungalows and chalets set within forests and along lakes
• Villas and glamping options for varied group sizes
• Ski Life parks for winter sports holidays
• Campsite pitches alongside traditional accommodation at several parks

Peace, space and nature

The company's focus has remained consistently on family oriented holidays that emphasise peace, space and nature, with parks deliberately located in scenic rural settings: forests, lakesides and coastlines across Europe.

A larger holiday group today

Following its 2023 merger with Roompot, Landal now operates more than 260 destinations across nine European countries under the ownership of investment firm KKR, serving around six million guests each year while staying true to its founding idea of bringing people and nature together.

Culture

• People and nature together: the founding idea from 1954, still at the heart of every park
• Nature-centric development: low density parks that blend into their forest and lake surroundings
• A place to reconnect: family time as the core purpose behind every stay
• Continued growth: adding parks and destinations each year for more than seventy years
