Cocondo

Take a dive under nature in in the first bunker of Cocondo! In Hoek van Holland an old German telephone bunker has been transformed in to a holiday home for two adults and two children.

You will be staying in the nature reserve and national monument ‘Vinetaduin’. Beneath these dunes lie about 70 bunkers that originate from four layers of military history of the 20th century. The telephone bunker lies in the northern part, near the villa district and entrance to the beach.

The space
For the transformation of the telephone bunker, we collaborated with progressive designers and builders. They gave the bunker a new peaceful function and worked with as much ecological and circular material as possible. This way you come in contact with contemporary designers and sustainable building techniques during your stay.
The bunker now has:
- underground bedroom for two adults (1.90m high)
- box bed for one adult or two children (190 x 134cm)

The town of Hoek van Holland originates from digging the Nieuwe Waterweg in 1872. In the following century, thousands of defenses were built on both banks to defend this new channel. These influences have been decisive in shaping the landscape of ‘the Hook of Holland’. Even today, the Hook is continuously subject to the influence of Rotterdam and the North Sea. If you pay close attention, you will notice this everywhere. A highlight is taking a walk along the Noorderpier or the Zandmotor at Ter heide.
