Bouwcenter RAB

4.4(63 reviews)

About

On Texel, Bouwcenter RAB occupies Heemskerckstraat 50, 1792 AC Oudeschild, Netherlands, in the harbour village on the island's east coast. The business is a hardware store, so the shelves carry building materials, tools and the practical supplies islanders need for repairs and projects.

A 4.4 out of 5 average across 63 reviews reflects steady approval from customers who have used the store. First-time visitors will find a working trade counter rather than a retail showroom, with staff serving both island residents and contractors working on properties around Texel. The website at https://www.bouwcenter.nl/rab/texel/ carries the store's own information for anyone planning a visit.

Oudeschild sits within easy reach of the other main settlements on the island, with Den Burg, De Koog, Den Hoorn, De Cocksdorp and Oosterend all connected by the island's road network. The store's position in the harbour village makes it a convenient stop for anyone based on the eastern side of Texel.

Dutch is the main language, and Frisian is spoken on Terschelling and Schiermonnikoog, so English is generally understood but a few words of Dutch help. The peak season runs from May to September, and summer days are long with cool sea breezes, which suits a day of errands across the island.
