  • Edging a forest on the outskirts of the Veluwe national park
  • A five-minute drive to Otterlo town and 15 minutes to Burgers' Zoo
  • Bike hire, swimming pool, playgrounds, table tennis and go-karts
Venturing to the Veluwe? You’re in luck: you can easily explore the woodland, heaths, streams and hills of this national park in Gelderland from a modern base at Resort De Wije Werelt about a 10-minute drive from the reserve and in a pretty forested setting… The area’s also famed for its sand drifts – it’s home to some of the biggest in Europe – with one accessible 20 minutes' walk from the park. Well-known museums, historic towns and foodie options are dotted around the region as well and are easy to access by car or on one of the site’s rental bikes. You won’t necessarily need to leave the park for eats and entertainment though: food and drink’s sorted thanks to the à la carte restaurant, diner and snack bar, and amenities like playgrounds, table tennis, an outdoor swimming pool and go-kart hire will keep the kids busy. If you’ve got mini members in your travel crew, family-friendly places of note are also nearby. You could head to Burgers' Zoo (15 minutes’ drive away) to amble through this 45-hectare space in Arnhem with habitats for animals ranging from pythons to monkeys or whizz through the sky on some of the 60 rides at the Julianatoren Apeldoorn amusement park for under-12s (30 minutes away). Counter the excitement with cultural activities too by trying the Kröller-Müller Museum 10 minutes’ drive away inside the Veluwe national park for a collection of art spanning the 19th and 20th centuries or get an immersive look at local history in the old houses, farms and factories at the Netherlands Open Air Museum (25 minutes).

Fully-serviced grass pitch

Liked: Absolutely brilliant campsite with superb facilities. Friendly staff, great restaurant and takeaway, nice pool. Proper high end experience. It felt like Canada! So much for youngsters and adults to do. Very large site next to forest. Excellent location near Otterlo and Arnhem. We are going to return next year.

Fully-serviced grass pitch

Liked: The park was brilliant. We came here as an extra on our already planned Caravanning holiday after a poor previous site and wished we had known about here first as we would have stayed longer! The park is lovely- the kids loved the pool and the playgrounds. The pitch was spacious enough for a caravan, awning, table and chairs and car. It was also close to the small town of Ottorlo which has a few nice places to eat and a couple of ice cream places. There isn't much else there other than a maize maze but was a cute little town. It was also a manageable ride to on our bikes. Will definitely be back again.

Liked: Wunderschöne Anlage, es gibt überall etwas zu sehen. Kleiner Streichelzoo, Pool, Kleinkinderbecken, Spielplätze (auch Indoor). Schöne Wanderpfade und eine Wüste laden zum spazieren ein. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und stand bei Fragen stets zur Verfügung. Die Sanitäranlagen sind sauber. Die Stellplätze sind angenehm groß. Absolut empfehlenswert.

Local attractions

As well as family-friendly and cultural things to do, Gelderland has offbeat options as well: think the Dutch Poultry Museum (20 minutes’ drive), the De Passiflorahoeve butterfly garden (15 minutes) and a tourist-centred asparagus farm (45 minutes). If you’d rather choose more standard ways to while away the time, a winery is 10 minutes’ drive away and Recreation Zeumeren is within 25 for sandy lakeside beaches and sunbathing areas as well as miniature golf, water skiing, wakeboarding, paddleboarding and canoeing. For days out without getting wet, the site’s also well placed: it’s under 40 minutes’ drive from the cities and towns of Arnhem, Apeldoorn, Ede and Nijmegen if you fancy mornings and afternoons full of art galleries, old architecture and top eats.
