A relaxed holiday starts when you can leave the car, settle in, and still have what you need within easy reach. That’s exactly what you get with Wildhoeve’s reception and camping store: on‑site access to daily necessities plus friendly assistance whenever you need it. In this guide, you’ll learn what the reception and shop offer, how they support the campsite’s car‑free setup, practical tips for a smooth stay, and where to find related services right on the grounds.

What You’ll Find at the Reception and Camping Store

Wildhoeve keeps everyday essentials close at hand so you can focus on nature, family time, and fun.

At a glance: what’s available

• Reception and campsite shop for daily necessities and assistance during your stay.
• Helpful, on‑the‑spot support for practical questions and campsite information.

Quick answers

• Is there a shop on site? Yes — the reception includes a campsite shop for daily necessities.
• Can reception help with local exploring? Yes — you can rent bicycles on site, and reception provides curated cycling routes that start right outside the gate.
• Need documents or maps? You can view or download the campsite map (Plattegrond) and digital brochure before you arrive, and reception can help with on‑site questions.

Reception services that make your stay easier

• Reservations & questions: Book directly via the on‑site team or use the online Zoek & Boek system.
• Local guidance: The campsite borders the regional cycle network and sits at the edge of the Veluwe forests, with walking trails through Koninklijke Houtvesterij Het Loo accessible immediately outside the grounds.
• Activity information: From family recreation during school holidays to nature discovery tours and lectures, reception can point you to what’s on.

How the Shop Supports a Car‑Free, Family‑First Stay

Wildhoeve is proudly car‑free. After you’ve set up your tent, caravan, or camper, you park in the central car park to keep the fields peaceful and safe.

• Handcarts at the barrier help you move luggage or groceries to and from your pitch with ease.
• Having daily necessities on site limits vehicle use and encourages a slower, more relaxed rhythm.
• Families benefit from a calmer atmosphere across the grounds, supported by thoughtful amenities like children’s areas in every sanitary block, including a playful tree‑shaped shower.

This design keeps the pathways friendlier for little explorers and makes spontaneous trips — a swim, a nature walk, or a quick shop stop — simple and stress‑free.

Payments, Practicalities, and Check‑In Basics

Keeping admin simple helps you get into holiday mode faster.

Paying on site

• Accepted payment methods: iDEAL and Wero for both on‑site transactions and online bookings.

Tip: Connect to the campsite WiFi (Wildhoeve 1, 2, or 3 depending on your location) if you need a stable connection for digital payments or planning. The service is free and suitable for general use.

Check‑in and check‑out times

If you have timing questions, the reception team can help you plan arrivals and departures smoothly.

Pair Your Shop Stop with On‑Site Essentials

Make the most of your time by combining errands with other convenient services and activities.

• Brasserie de Houtvesterij: Prefer not to cook? Enjoy food and drinks on site.
• Wassen & Afwassen: On‑site laundry and dishwashing facilities keep your setup light and tidy.
