  • Friendly family site with a swimming pool and water playground
  • Under 10 minutes' drive to Dino Park Tenaxx
  • Indoor play area, fishing, restaurant and shop
Who's up for a whole load of frolics and family days in the Netherlands? With hiking, biking and waterways close by, a swimming pool on site – and a setting a mega-easy five kilometres from a tiptop dinosaur park? Have a stay at big, fun and friendly Camping Wedderbergen in the Groningen province if this ticks all your holiday boxes, in a land of ancient forests and lakes, river valleys and animal parks. The setting first of all, of course: Camping Wedderbergen has its own private lake with a sandy beach and play area exclusively for guests' use. Permits to go fishing on site can be bought for a nominal fee at reception, and fishing tournaments for all ages are held on a regular basis for those who like to feel competitive (recommended…). There's also an indoor play area for kids up to the age of 12 with slides, trampoline zones, a toddler zone, a power tower and a climbable 'volcano'. Around the area, hire a bike or canoe on site to explore the local cycle paths and waterways, or potter along over 30 hiking trails running through the forests and river valleys of Westerwolde. Plenty of popular family attractions are within easy driving distance too, like Dino Park Tenaxx, the Watersports Centre Veendam and Wildlands Adventure Zoo. Wedderbergen also has a big heated indoor pool with one slide and a large outdoor water playground with more slides, plus a restaurant and a convenience store selling essentials, draught beer and freshly baked bread and croissants. The modern amenities on site include an accessible heated toilet and shower block (with a separate parent and baby washroom) and a launderette with washing machines and tumble dryers. Free wifi is also provided to guests.

James F. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Fully-serviced grass pitch (comfort, no pets)

Liked: Large open pitches each with water & electricity. Ultra clean toilet block, cleaned at least 3+ times a day even when site was nearly empty! Very helpful staff. Good spacious indoor swimming pool with flume. Nice outdoor pool for kids with pleasant seating area (when the weather was suitable, we were 3 nights late August when was wet & cold). Would be ideal site for families with young kids.

Disliked: Over complicated electronic shower system with pre-paid dongle gizmo. You get soaked working out exactly how they work and then they are too powerful with no adjustment possible. Hate to think what happens if it runs out of money mid shower!! No hot water in the washing cubicles a definite negative for such an expensive camp-site (by far the most costly of our 4 Dutch & Belgian sites). Even the re-cycling needed the electronic dongle to get rid of your trash!! Restaurant complex was very modern, nicely equipped and large but again not very personnel with self service ordering of mostly fast food via electronic screens with bank card only pre-payment (think McDonalds fast food!). Not a lot of cosy ambience to be had. The thought of what site might be like when at near to full capacity. It was at literally only about 10% full for our 3 nights 26-28 Aug '23 and felt quite lonely (thus we were allowed to choose virtually any free pitch we could see). With only one toilet block for such a large site of 200-300(?) touring pitches and hundreds more statics, cabins etc, access to the facilities when full might be very challenging?

Fully-serviced grass pitch

Liked: De rustige plek en de omgeving. Veel animatie voor de kleinkinderen.

Disliked: Schoonmaaktijden en wachttijden sanitair, 1 locatie is wat weinig. geen fietsersdoorgang bij poort, wandelaars en fietsers gaan door 1 smalle doorgang tegen elkaar in. De mail waarin stond 'mocht er iets zijn dan staat de technische dienst voor u klaar'. Toen ik namelijk een probleem had aan mijn caravan was er niemand die daar even naar kon kijken, het was blijkbaar alleen voor de faciliteiten van de camping. Dit was zo niet omschreven en het zou ook wel heel gek zijn als de technische dienst daar niet voor zou komen. Al met al waren we toch heel tevreden hoor, prima camping.

Local attractions

Take a bike or canoe out along the local paths or waterways, wander the local hiking paths or stick around the site for basking, swimming and fishing at the Camping Wedderbergen private lake and beach. After all that, it's a five-kilometre drive to the dinosaurs, dino hunt, mini archaeological digs and assault course of Dino Park Tenaxx, and about 21 kilometres to the boating, wakeboarding, waterskiing and more of Watersports Centre Veendam. Wildlands Adventure Zoo is 45 kilometres away, at Emmen. Also an excellent option for families (and history geeks) is the village of Bourtange, 15 kilometres away, home of a famed and restored 16th-century star-shaped fort and open-air museum telling the story of the fort, the village and its role in the Eighty Years' War and onwards. A tourist information centre is in the village if you want to go on from here around the region of Westerwolde. Groningen city is just under 50 kilometres away for day trips, or you could go and see the doe-eyed inhabitants at the Seal Rehabilitation and Research Centre, 73 kilometres away in Pieterburen.
