How to keep tourists in Westerkwartier longer: official calls sector a 'growth diamond'

In the municipality of Westerkwartier (Netherlands), occupancy at campsites and motorhome pitches has declined compared to previous years, possibly due to high fuel prices and a doubling of the motorhome road tax. Owners of De Eikenhof pitch in Opende note that tourists stay only a few nights and urge authorities to relax rules, including extending the season beyond November 1.
