  • 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 (comfort, private bathroom amenities)

Liked: We used this campsite as a stopover on our way to Denmark. We only stayed 1 night but we all would have loved to stay longer. Great campsite with a lovely little pool, indoor play and outdoor park for the kids. We enjoyed drinks on the terrace whilst the children played. There’s a handy shop for essentials on site too. We had a private bathroom facility with our pitch which was fab. Would definitely recommend.

Fully-serviced grass pitch (comfort)

Liked: Lovely quiet and clean campsite. Great facilities. Good size pitches. We ate in the cafe one evening - tasty pizzas and chips. The pool is fantastic - really big and clean. The campsite is near to lovely forest and sand dunes, great for exploring on foot and with bikes. Otterlo is a 5 minute cycle away, and has a few restaurants and shops. The National Park is also accessible via Otterlo, and cycling around it is a lovely way to spend a day.

Liked: Reception staff great. Lovely neat and tidy site, good sized pitches (and can park sideways which is a bonus). Lovely location with great walks, museums, close to train stations for trains to Amsterdam, Arnhem, etc. Great site for children with animation, swimming pools, lots of play areas. Shower and toilet facilities immaculate.

Disliked: Nothing

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.
