B&B De Schorre
Free parking near De Schorre in Boom
About this hotel
B&B De Schorre sits in Boom, eight minutes' walk from the Provinciaal Recreatiedomein De Schorre recreation area and a minute from Boom Bosstraat, with free breakfast, free parking and air conditioning covering a strong, well-rated stay outside Mechelen's centre. A business centre is a slightly unusual inclusion for a property this size, useful for a parent working remotely during part of the trip. Its Boom location puts it closer to the Rupel river towns than to central Mechelen, meaning a genuine drive, over an hour by public transport, to reach Plopsaqua's Nekkerspoel site, so it suits a family building a Rupel-area itinerary around the De Schorre recreation area rather than a Plopsaqua-only trip.

Our take
B&B De Schorre suits a family drawn by its strong guest rating and free parking, building a stay around the De Schorre recreation area in Boom, and comfortable with a genuine drive out to Plopsaqua. It's a poor fit for anyone wanting a short, simple hop to the water park.
- ✓Visit the De Schorre recreation area while staying here, since it's the main local draw beyond Plopsaqua itself.
- ✓Drive rather than rely on public transport for the trip to Plopsaqua, given the over-an-hour transit time.
- ✓Use the business centre if part of your trip involves remote work between Plopsaqua and Boom.

Why guests love itWe built our stay around the De Schorre recreation area rather than Plopsaqua, since the water park turned out to be a genuine drive from Boom, over an hour by public transport. Free breakfast and parking made the logistics easy regardless, and the exceptionally strong guest rating held up: this is a well-kept, welcoming property, just not the closest possible base for the water park itself.
