De Otterberg

Alan Rogers Review of De Otterberg

Familiecamping De Otterberg is a well-established site in the green heart of Drenthe. It has 330 pitches including 130 for tourers. The touring pitches are on well-tended, grassy fields with shade from mature trees, the newer field to the front right being more open. All pitches have 6A electricity. Central on the site is an open-air pool which is heated to 30 degrees and has a jet stream, jacuzzi and a paddling pool with mushroom fountain. Visitors may bring their own horses to stay in the site’s stables. The site has a tranquil atmosphere and offers good facilities for wheelchair users.

For example, in high season the pool is reserved twice a day for disabled visitors only. Next to the pool complex is a welcoming bar/restaurant with a terrace where you can enjoy good, simple meals and where bingo and card evenings are organised. In high season there is an active animation team for youngsters and adults. Close to the site is the Dwingelerveld national park, ideal for walking and cycling.
