Holiday homes with an airstrip/aerodrome
I'm thinking of making a trip from the Netherlands to places in Europe. I'm looking for great destinations with Holiday accommodation at airfields:
UK: Self Catering Holiday Cottage With Farm Airstrip Lanarkshire Central Scotland
France: Page location d'Atlantic Air Park
Germany: Ferienpark am Bernsteinsee | Flugplatz
Netherlands: Texel International Airport - Vliegveld Texel - Flugplatz Texel - EHTX (Just to make the list complete: i've been too many times at EHTX, so I will not go there ;-) )
I was wondering if you know any other accomodation (Hotel, Holiday Home, Campsite) at or near (walking distance) an Airport/airfield/farm strip?

Sorry, didn't see this:
http://www.pprune.org/private-flying...ield-site.html
But it covers mainly UK accomodations. Any suggestions outside the UK?

Fadmoor in North Yorkshire has a holiday cottage on site and it's about 20 minute stroll to Gillamoor and the Royal Oak pub, which also has accomodation.

In Sweden there are some nice places.
Siljansnäs - Beautiful scenery
Siljan AirPark, Siljansnäs
Varberg/Getterön - Nice and small airfield on the westcoast with a very nice Café and short distance from the city.
If you have a tent there are also a lot more nice places.
Visingsö
Stegeborg
Good luck and fly safe!

I have friends who live on an Airpark in SW France accessed from Biscarrosse-Parentis airfield. They are doing pilot B&B, have space on their apron outside their front door for 3 aircraft; open-air swimming pool; AvGas on the airfield, ATC Mon-Fri (speak English) no landing fees. PM me with your email address for contact details.

Earls Colne - has a comfortable hotel right next to the strip (part asphalt), a golf course, tennis courts and is close to plenty of other airfields to make trips to as well as other interesting places.
Oban has a hotel at the end of the runway - with a spectacular view over the entrance to Loch Etive. Fuel and free mountain bike loan. Short flights to at least 5 islands with hotels within walking distance for a meal before return.

Have you tried the airstrip down in Muchamiel (Mutxamel), Spain, close to Alicante? aeroclubalicante.com That's the place to go if you was sun and beach close by, though you'll have to wait for another 3-4 weeks for it to be comfortable.
