About this campspace

Come and stay in one of our unique circular houses or pitch your tent at our mini campsite in the North Holland polder. Our location is a new place where we figure out how we can live together as sustainably as possible, (organically) farm, build, work and relax.
We are still working hard to make our dream come true, we are not done yet but it is already a very nice and inspiring place!
In addition to the campsite, the estate consists of a wine garden, an apple and pear orchard, an organic market garden and 30 hectares of organic farming. The restaurant is open from Wednesday lunchtime to Sunday lunchtime.
We are 25 minutes from Amsterdam and 15 minutes from the beach of Wijk aan Zee. There are beautiful cycling routes in the area.
Bring your boots, because with rain it is muddy. Also, pack your guitar for a campfire session around the large fireplace. And don't forget your binoculars, because the buzzards / harriers / kestrels are flying around you! Blue metal birds also fly over every now and then 🛩. After all, we are very centrally located on the edge of the Randstad. Children are welcome: no seesaws here, but real ones. No animation team, but plenty of clay, water and nature to discover and adventure.
Atse and Maartje and their children Lux and Borre welcome you!

At the end of the day, gather around the 7 meter high fire pit.

Tell us about your experience
After a beautiful day of touring North Holland by motorbike, we settled down with 2 friends at the end of the afternoon on the estate that is under development.
We received a very hospitable welcome and were impressed by the ambitions and story of the estate. There is a very nice atmosphere and between the fields, fruit trees, vineyard and tiny houses we were given all the space and freedom to find the best spot. There was an active search and we did indeed find a top spot for our tents. We were allowed to use the facilities of a cottage whose guests had canceled last minute which was not necessary, but very comfortable.
We were allowed to use wood for a fire on which we came to cook. All in all a very pleasant stay and we would love to come back.

How was the contact with the host?
The host Maartje was very welcoming, friendly and helpful

What a nice place to stay, an estate under construction with all kinds of artistic houses. Everything is possible and everything is allowed as a reward to end the day with a large campfire and get up with fresh eggs from the chickens on the estate. The kids loved it and we look forward to coming back soon.

Everything is fine and perfect.

We had a nice time in this creative place.
The site is close to the highway and planes pass by regularly, but this didn't bother us.
There are some toilets, but since the shower is in the same room, it can be occupied for quite some time.
Very original place, with a nice vibe.

How was the contact with the host?
We were warmly welcomed and were kindly helped if we had any questions!

Tips for new guests?
There are two wood-fired pizza ovens available on the campsite, so bring your pizza dough and bake it in your own place.

You feel like you are in the middle of nowhere, despite the fact that the camping pitch is close to a busy city. Lovely unobstructed view and waking up to the birds. You can also get fresh eggs in the chicken coop. Next door is an eatery that has the same low-key vibe; nice to eat something or have a glass of wine in the evening.

How was the contact with the host?
The campsite owner was very helpful as we got stuck with the bus in the mud. He pulled us out, was easily accessible and quickly on site.

Tips for new guests?
This campsite is still under construction and everything is reused to build something beautiful. These people are biologically and environmentally conscious; a nice experience to spend the night here

There is no kitchen that you can use as a camper (no fridge, cooking facilities), but lots of nature, experiencing an alternative lifestyle, looking for chicken eggs, a warm shower and very nice contacts!

We had a great time on the small, very familiar campsite in the nature near Beverwijk.

How was the contact with the host?
There was contact when booking only on the day of arrival itself, we didn't really meet anyone. Everything was pretty self-explanatory. But maybe it would be good to communicate some kind of response times so that we can coordinate upon arrival.

Tips for new guests?
There are bikes on site that can be used, which is very convenient as it takes away all your worries.
It is good to arrive by car, as it is a bit out of the way, or you have a precise plan in advance of how to get to the campsite on foot and not to transport too heavy luggage. Unfortunately, there is no bus connection.

Funny and beautiful concept. Still looks a bit messy but that's how it is presented. There is still much work to be done, so to speak. Very nice owners. However, really a fam campsite. We didn't really know so noise after 10 pm was desired. We found that to be a real downside. Make a nice place just outside the hearing of the tents for the people who want to make it later.

How was the contact with the host?
Nice and smooth

Tips for new guests?
Few shady spots in front of the tent. Bring something to create shadows

Tell us about your experience
Great project in a super nice atmosphere! We were there with our camper and felt immediately welcome by Maartje and her husband. There is a lot to discover on the extensive property, va. for children. Feed chickens, drive vehicles, make fires. The Tiny Houses are particularly lovingly and creatively designed. Nothing is perfect but all the more human! A bit like Pippi Longstocking. Some things are still under construction and not finished yet. There are cottages with toilet and warm shower and fresh water is also there. Unfortunately for me too many sources of noise (airport approach path, motorway, agriculture, construction site). If that doesn't bother you and if you're not sensitive to mud, you'll have a great and sociable time here.

How was the contact with the host?
Super accommodating and prompt! A heartfelt thank you! 🌟

Be sure to bring rubber boots and dirt-resistant clothing in rainy weather 💦

Lonely, plane rich, windy (nothing) for the roof tent.
We didn't think it was wonderful with a child, even if children don't need much. In the low season nobody is there. The planes fly right over the square and a constant hum disturbs sensitive ears. It's also windy and we didn't find it charming.

How was the contact with the host?
Friendly

Tips for new guests?
Actually take boots with you if it gets really wet there. And if you like absolute seclusion and simplicity, this is the place for you.
