Camping Beerze Bulten

In 2023, that was about the Most Outstanding Rental with their brand new Wrap House. Camping Beerze Bulten is a favorite among children up to age 12 because there is so much to do that you don’t have to leave the campsite during your vacation.

Location and environment

Camping Beerze Bulten is located in the middle of Overijssel’s greenery, with the Vecht River on one side and sand drifts and forests on the other. As the name suggests, the campground is located on sloping terrain so you have to deal with height differences.

The campground is car-free, allowing children to ride their bikes and play without worry. Only on arrival and departure days are cars allowed on the grounds. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and well maintained as well.

In addition, you walk straight into the forest where several beautiful hiking trails are marked, such as the 11-kilometer Beerze Path. There is a fun scavenger hunt especially for children, the Beerze Rangers Adventure Trail. By solving assignments and riddles, children can become a Beerze Ranger! And if not, there’s bound to be another great trail for you, because there are 1300 km of hiking trails to choose from!

You can canoe on the Vecht; canoes can be rented at the campground. If you are up for a challenge, we recommend the drop-off trip of about 4 hours to Ommen. If you have a SUP, bring it to the campground because you can do this very well on the Vecht.

If you want to spend a day at an amusement park, then Avonturenpark Hellendoorn, Plopsaland Indoor Coevoorden or Attractiepark Slagharen are options. And in the area you will find several nice villages, including Hanseatic town Ommen. Or go to Hardenberg for a day.

Pitches

At Camping Beerze Bulten you can still enjoy camping. The very spacious sites have plenty of shade and are playfully laid out. As mentioned earlier, the campground is on a rolling landscape and you have to deal with elevation changes. There are more than 30 (small) playgrounds in the campground, so there is always a playground close to your camping spot where the children can enjoy playing.
There are five different camping spots, we will describe them in more detail below. What is true of all pitches is that they are equipped with 8 amps of electricity (increase is possible), a private water point and private sewer.

  • Comfort pitch: this pitch can accommodate up to 6 people and is approximately 100 m2 in size.
  • Comfort pitch with pet: this pitch is also about 100 m2 and is suitable for 6 persons as well as two dogs (or other pets). The sites are located at the edge of the forest.
  • Comfort Pitch Royale: this pitch is a lot more spacious with its 140 m2. Here, too, you can accommodate 6 people.
  • Comfort site Royaal with pet: this spacious 140 m2 site offers room for up to 2 pets in addition to 6 people. These spots are on the edge of the forest.
  • Comfort pitch with private bathroom: on your pitch of about 100 m2 you also have your own bathroom with your own shower, toilet and sink. Your private bathroom is right by your own pitch and includes final cleaning. The sites are centrally located near the swimming paradise and the Giga Rabbit Hole.

If you want another camping spot but private sanitary facilities, you can also rent a private cabin in the sanitary building (Bibi).
You book all pitches through Camping Beerze Bulten or through ANWB.

There are three sanitary buildings, two of which are even partially underground! The plumbing is heated and kept very clean. Sanitary building Bultje is just new and has nice children’s showers and sinks at children’s height. What is very nice is that you do not shower here with coins.
