About De Hollandsche Molen<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

De Hollandsche Molen started in the early 1900’s by a Dutchman. At that stage it only consisted of a swimming pool, camping site and the famous Mill. During these times the Mill was used as a tea room which was well-known.
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Duplooys (Rina & Nico) took over in 1988 and in 1991 De Hollandsche Molen was changed to a shareblock resort, from here the public could purchase permanent housing and plots. In 1994 the infamous Mill was restored to its original glory.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

An oasis resort has been created and boasts many international visitors. Since 1988, De Hollandsche Molen is an internationally recognised resort which caters for the entire family.<\/span><\/p>\n
