Living in De Kamp, Renkum
De Kamp is a very small residential neighbourhood on the edge of Heelsum, tucked away in the greenery of the Veluwezoom. With only 30 residents, it is not a neighbourhood in the traditional sense: rather a handful of homes along a wooded area, within walking distance of the Rhine and the foothills of the Veluwe. The atmosphere is rural and quiet. No students or starters live here in porch flats, but mainly people between 25 and 45, often in single-person households, who consciously choose space and peace away from the city.
The homes in De Kamp are predominantly spacious detached or semi-detached houses, fitting the villa-like character of the broader area around Heelsum. The average rented home of 337 m² speaks volumes: this is not a neighbourhood for those seeking an affordable apartment, but for those who prioritise space, greenery and privacy.
Facilities in and around De Kamp
De Kamp itself has no shops, schools or sports facilities. This need not be a drawback, as nearby Heelsum offers basic amenities within a short bike ride. For daily groceries, schools and healthcare, one relies on Renkum or Doorwerth, both within five to ten minutes by car. In Renkum there is a local shopping centre with a supermarket, pharmacy and GP practice. The area offers ample opportunities for walking and cycling in the Nationaal Park Veluwezoom, with direct access to the forests and the Rhine. Sports clubs and recreational facilities can be found in the nearby villages.
Accessibility of De Kamp
By car, De Kamp is easily accessible via the N225, which connects to the A50 towards Arnhem and Nijmegen. Arnhem is about a twenty-minute drive away. Public transport is limited: the nearest bus stop offers a connection via a bus line towards Arnhem, but the frequency is low. For daily commuters dependent on public transport, De Kamp is therefore less practical. By bike, the area is easy to traverse via cycle paths along the Rhine and through the forests. Parking is not a problem: there is ample space on private property.
Residents of De Kamp particularly appreciate the peace and proximity to nature. One resident describes it as: "You live here as if you are on holiday, but then every day." Critical notes usually concern the limited public transport connections and the fact that you need a car for almost everything.
