Green Holidays in The Netherlands

The low-slung countryside of the Netherlands, with its fields of tulips, sea walls and network of waterways, is perfect for walkers and cyclists and has inspired artists throughout history.

Art - and a wealth of other cultural draws - can be found in the vibrant cities of the country, famous for their tolerant attitudes and diverse attractions, from the canals of Amsterdam to the ultra-modern architecture of Rotterdam. Easily accessible by train and ferry from the UK (check out how to travel by train to the Netherlands on our journey planner), there's bucket loads to do in this small nation.
