Ijsselstrand

Camping Ijsselstrand

A little to the northeast of Doesburg lies the campsite Ijsselstrand, set beside a (small) riverside beach. The campsite covers both sides of the river-dyke, with the Vacansoleil mobile homes being located in the part behind the dyke, which is also where you will find the swimming pool.

Why camping Ijsselstrand ?

• Camping IJsselstrand has a lovely new covered swimming pool complex( opens June 1st 2018) with waterslide, jacuzzi and separate children's pool with play aparatus. During warm weather the side walls are removed.
• The roof of the covered swimming pool is being repaired due to storm damage. If you’re staying here before June 1st 2018, you can still go swimming, because as campsite guest, ,you get free access to take a dip in the public pool in Doetinchem. ( A 20 minute ’s drive)
• There are both indoor and outdoor playgrounds. For sporting activities you can choose from the riding school, tennis court, fishing pond, yacht club or join in with the enthusiastic entertainment team.
• There are two restuarants to choose from; the ark in the middle of the marina and the friendly farmhouse.
• Until the new swimming pool has been open, you can enjoy lots of fun extras in the weekends and school holidays ( Easter and May.) The indoor playground has extended its opening hours from 10:00 to 00:30. Children have a blast there with a special entertainment programme. And one more surprise: 1 hour of free bowling at the campsite.

Tip from the specialist:

"Child-friendly campsite in a beautiful setting beside the Ijssel, close to the old mustard town of Doesburg. Own marina, riding school, big playgrounds and a covered pool."

The surrounding area of Ijsselstrand

Doesburg is one of the seven old 'Hanzesteden' along the river Ijssel. The trading done during the 14th century brought much wealth to the town, and that can be seen in the historic streets with their beautiful merchants' houses. Doesburg is also known for its mustard production.
