Summary created out of 397 reviews

Veluwepark de Bosgraaf is situated in a beautiful wooded location on the Veluwe, ideal for walking and cycling. The park is undergoing extensive development with new, luxurious accommodations that are modernly furnished with amenities such as air conditioning and hot tubs. Guests appreciate the large playground, the swimming pool, and the friendly, helpful staff. However, there are points of concern: construction work causes disturbance with noise and vacant plots, guests complain about poor communication beforehand, and the swimming pool regularly has technical issues with water being too cold.

    A beautifully renovated park; we stayed in a chalet with an electric hot tub and an electric sauna. The spoon from the bucket in the sauna hadn’t been put away properly by previous guests—it had mold on it. I cleaned it up thoroughly.

    Very nice, contemporary decor. More than enough space in the chalet for 4 people. A fully equipped shower, … including small toiletries, and beautiful new furniture. The kitchen has a Nespresso machine. Air conditioning is also available. The chalet has a beautifully landscaped garden with various seating areas, lounge chairs, and a fire pit that can also be used for barbecuing

    Tip:
    Bring your own Nespresso capsules 😉
    Bring some extra toilet paper
    And if you book a kitchen package, be sure to bring your own towel and dish towel.

    I hope all guests will keep everything tidy so that many more people can enjoy it.

    We’ll definitely be making use of the other amenities in the coming days.

    Prachtig vernieuwd park, we zaten in een chalet met elektrische hottub en elektrische sauna. De lepel van de emmer in de sauna was door eerdere gasten niet netjes opgeruimd, daar zat schimmel op. Deze heb ik weer netjes schoongemaakt.

    Zeer mooie eigentijdse inrichting. Voor 4 personen meer dan voldoende ruimte in het chalet. Een complete douche inclusief kleine doucheprodukten, mooie nieuwe meubels. In de keuken staat een nespresso apparaat. Ook een airco is aanwezig. Het chalet heeft een prachtig aangelegde tuin, met daarin verschillende zitjes, ligbedden een een vuurplaats om ook te barbecuen

    Tip:
    Neem eigen nespresso cupjes mee😉
    Neem wat extra wc papier mee
    En als je een keukenpakket boekt neem dan nog wel zelf een handdoek en theedoek mee.

    Ik hoop dat alle gasten alles netjes houden, zodat er nog veel mensen plezier van mogen beleven.

    Van de verdere faciliteiten zullen we de komende dagen vast nog gebruik gaan maken.

    We stayed in a very nice house with a hot tub and sauna in the backyard. The yard was beautifully landscaped and well-maintained.
    The patio set was set up under a pergola, and there was also a lounge set, a large umbrella, and lounge chairs.
    The house overlooked a beautiful pond.
    We were in house no. 184
    The service was … fantastic.
    You could send messages via WhatsApp if there was a problem, and they were answered within a few minutes.
    The park is also beautifully landscaped.
    There’s a petting zoo, a large swimming pool, and lots of activities are organized.
    This is a park in a wooded area where we’ll definitely be coming back.

    Wij zaten in een heel mooi huis met hottub en sauna in de tuin. De tuin was prachtig aangelegd en goed onderhouden.
    Tuintafelset stond onder een pergola en er stond ook een loungeset,grote parasol en ligbedden.
    Het huis keek uit op een mooie vijver.
    Wij hadden huisnr. 184
    De service was fantastisch.
    Je kon via whats ap berichten sturen als er iets is en de berichten worden binnen paar minuten beantwoord.
    Het park is verder prachtig aangeled.
    Er is een kinderboerderij, grote zwembad en er worden veel activiteiten georganiseerd.
    Dit is een park in een bosrijke omgeving waar wij zeker een keer terug zullen komen.

    This park is in a beautiful location—on the edge of the forest—where you can start your bike ride or hike right away. We went on some really beautiful bike rides, including to the Loenermark Nature Reserve, the Deeler Forest, and the most beautiful of all, "the Posbank."

    Dit park is zeer mooi gelegen. Aan de rand van het bos. Waar je gelijk je fiets of wandelroute kunt beginnen. Wij hebben zeer mooie fietsroutes gemaakt, o a. Natuurgebied Loenermark, deelerwoud, en het mooiste " de Posbank".

    We had a 6-person cottage with 4 adults, 2 babies, and a dog. When we arrived, the baby cribs were already set up neatly. Only one room could accommodate an extra crib. In the other two rooms, there wasn’t enough space to fit a crib next to the beds. The staff at the front desk were very helpful and moved us to a larger 6-person cottage at no … extra charge. Our first cottage was Doornburg, and the second was Essenburgh. The second one was much larger, so we were able to fit a crib in two of the rooms.
    Great service and beautiful, modern cottages!

    Wij hadden een 6 persoons huisje met 4 volwassenen, 2 baby's en een hond. Toen we aankwamen stonden er netjes baby bedjes klaar. Alleen op 1 kamer kon er maar een bedje bij. De andere 2 kamers pastte geen bedje naast de bedden. Bij de receptie hebben ze ons heel goed geholpen en zijn we naar een groter 6-persoons huisje geplaatst zonder extra te betalen. Ons eerste huisje was doornenburg en het 2e huisje was essenburgh. Die was een stuk groter waardoor er op 2 kamers een bedje bij kon.
    Super service en mooie moderne huisjes!
