Very nice camping spot in the middle of the forest! We had a super nice stay here.

How was the contact with the host?
Samantha was very friendly and also gave good tips about what we could do in the area. Smooth communication in advance.

Tips for new guests?
Bring something big enough to transport water in, the tap for fresh water is a bit further away from the tent :)

Tell us about your experience
Nice camping for a few days in a nice piece of forest. In the morning we were treated to a bird concert and playing squirrels. The forest is not big, but just big enough, and the area is great for walking.

How was the contact with the host?
Samantha welcomed us kindly and was always available for questions.

Tips for new guests?
Don't forget to bring something to get water at the water tap. That is not on the site itself.

Tell us about your experience
Awesome!! Beautiful and lovely place all to yourself.

How was the contact with the host?
Super nice reception and very clear and clear communication

One of the few places in NL where you can really camp 'wild' WITH the opportunity to make a fire (in most places that is now prohibited). Beautiful piece of forest in a nature reserve where you can stay undisturbed. A fence and bushes protect you from the many mountain bikers and hikers that pass by.

How was the contact with the host?
Samantha was very generous and friendly. We thought that we had to stick to the usual times (from 15.00 and before 11.00), but this is just in consultation. Once on site, she gave us a tour through the forest and since my son showed interest in the survival track, he spontaneously received a lesson in technique from the man of the house. All very relaxed and friendly.

Tips for new guests?
- There is a water tap 400m from the forest. So you don't necessarily have to bring your own water like we did, but an empty jerry can is enough.
- There's real bows of deadwood.
- The compost toilet has toilet paper.
- There is a bench and a fallen tree around the fire pit. So you have a seat.

Tell us about your experience
it was a wonderful weekend in the middle of the forest!
We did the survival track but it was a bit too spicy for us haha
It's great that you are so busy improving the forest, which will really pay off.
We also visited the picking forest and we picked delicious herbs.
All in all a really nice place!!

How was the contact with the host?
In one word, SUPER!

Tips for new guests?
Book and enjoy

Lovely piece of forest. It is a beautiful experience to be alone in this place. This gives a certain peace. Nice that there is a fire pit and enough wood to gather. We went camping with a hammock ourselves and there are plenty of options to hang it up.
The story and plan behind this forest is beautiful and inspiring. We are very curious how the food forest will develop in the coming years.

How was the contact with the host?
Very good and nice. Fast response and nice contact.

Tell us about your experience
Nicely maintained site with all necessary facilities. And a great obstacle course. Only a pity of the highway nearby.

How was the contact with the host?
Friendly people and a good reception. You can't wish for more.

Tips for new guests?
Try a therapy with Samantha. For me the meditation was very relaxing and interesting.

A wonderfully quiet piece of forest in the middle of nature.

Lovely spot in the forest!
Were able to make a fire in the evening and were wonderfully alone on the spot. Recommended!

Fine, well received and guided to place

Very nice place, a real forest experience! Wonderful to have a place alone with your own company. We heard the highway pretty well, but that doesn't outweigh the rest of this beautiful location.

How was the contact with the host?
Very good contact with the host. Fast service, friendly, approachable, professional, nothing to complain about.

Tips for new guests?
Bring your binoculars and/or camera, lots of birds to spot!

Tell us about your experience
Top camping spot! We were also lucky to be here with a full moon, so there was extra light. Place is easy to find, for us the only "pity" is the lighting of the gas station 500-700 meters away. On the other hand, it also somehow has its charm that you have the idea that you are camping "illegally" in the wild.

Extra nice is the fact that you are the only guest on the camping site, so you can get away romantically for a few days here with a campfire option!

How was the contact with the host?
Samantha is super friendly, explains well how everything works, and where you can find what.

Tell us about your experience
Beautiful piece of forest with a lot of nature loving marks from the owners. Such as there own little shitake farm and everywhere young baby trees to improve the diversity. You can tell that the owners have put a lot of energy and time to make it this great. Unfortunately they had no facility to do our dishes and the highway was a bit to close.

How was the contact with the host?
Communication was fine.

Tips for new guests?
Bring empty bottles so you have enough water in reach.

Tell us about your experience
Great camping space right in the middle of the forest if you don't like campgrounds and want nature this place is amazing. Also has a big fire pit which was amazing. Samantha came to meet us on arrival even after a last min booking. Very friendly and helpful. Best camping found in the Netherlands. Will return very soon.

How was the contact with the host?
Contact was fast and easy very friendly.

Nice spot in a quiet forest! Very hospitable welcome and Samantha is very helpful. On the other side of the highway also a beautiful walking area.

Tell us about your experience
Beautiful place in the forest to completely disconnect from civilization. Plenty of room to set up a few tents. There was a nice campfire spot and plenty of wood for burning. There is also a toilet which is handy. We really felt pure in nature, very nice.

How was the contact with the host?
The service and contact with Samantha was pleasant and hospitable.

Tell us about your experience
Nice spot, I'm very curious when all the new plantings have grown. The highway is 300 meters so you can hear it well in the beginning. After a while you don't hear it anymore. It is 15 min there and 15 min back if you go to get water so take some bottles with you. Enjoyed 2 days between the trees and in the evening sat by the fire.

How was the contact with the host?
Perfect, very friendly woman and told fascinating information about the forest plot and the work performed.

Tips for new guests?
Bring supplies for splitting wood for the fire. Bring some 1.5 liter bottles or a jerry can.

Tell us about your experience
Beautiful private space in the woods. For real nature-lovers. Yes you do hear the road in the background but do not let this deter you! We had such a fabulous stay. Highly recommend

How was the contact with the host?
Contact with host was very smooth. Samantha is very nice and lovely to hear about their forest.

Tell us about your experience
We had a wonderful weekend in this beautiful fenced private forest with beautiful fall colors! It really gave us the feeling of wild camping that we wanted to experience. The kids loved the obstacle course and our dog also really enjoyed the forest.

Highly recommended

Tips for new guests?
We were with our bus camper, so had the necessary facilities at hand. There is an excellent eco toilet on site. We had enough water / food ourselves. There is a water point within walking distance, but a large jerry can is recommended.

Tell us about your experience
Very nice experience. You have the forest to yourself. There is a fire pit. We were allowed to use herbs from the herb garden. The eco toilet is clean (and very nicely made). The survival course is fantastic (although we have to go back ourselves to try it out). Samantha gives meditation classes in the forest. She takes her time and you get a lot of personal attention. In the area you can enjoy hiking/mountain biking. You can hear the highway, but we had little trouble with this.

Enough ingredients for a few wonderful relaxing days. Recommended!

How was the contact with the host?
Very pleasant. Fast and clear responses after booking. You will be given a tour of the site and all the explanations you need.

Tips for new guests?
Book a meditation!

Tell us about your experience
This is basically wildcamping, a forest all for yourself. Quite the treat, and I will def. return here to experience the forest.

How was the contact with the host?
Very kind host, she explained the details of the forest.

Tips for new guests?
Don't worry about the highway nearby, just bring some earplugs. The ecological toilet is quite clean. Make sure to ask for possible arrival and leave time in advance.

Tell us about your experience
What an experience to be alone in the forest. You really have the feeling of being wild camping legally. And if only we loved that. It is a site with different vegetation and a beautiful campfire pit where you can make a fire to your heart's content. In other words, a top site which, on the other hand, is a bit too close to the highway. But you can get over that monotonous sound. At least we live in a country where we have to share everything. Either we will definitely come back.

How was the contact with the host?
Samantha is a lovely woman who showed her terrain with great pride and passion. She had all the time for us and is very hospitable.

Tips for new guests?
Bring your mountain bike and/or your hiking boots. Because there is a beautiful MTB route in the vicinity. If you want to walk, you can also do that very well in the vicinity.

Tell us about your experience
Lovely place in the forest, all the space around you. You really have the idea that you are camping in the wild. Nice campfire place with enough leftover wood! And a beautiful area too, plenty to do. Only downside I found that you can hear the highway quite well. But that was known in advance so it didn't come as a surprise. To be repeated!

How was the contact with the host?
Very friendly and received an extensive explanation about the forest and the facilities.

Tips for new guests?
Bring enough water with you, because the water tap is just too far to walk to.

Tell us about your experience
My overnight there was amazing. It's a beautiful location in a small forest , very close to the sand dunes and just a 10 min walk from civilization but without all the noise. Many hiking options around the spot and also nice bike runs. Its one of the few campspace locations in NL that is fully forested, very highly recommended!

How was the contact with the host?
Samantha responds quickly and is a great host. She also gave me a very thorough intro of their property, the garden, plants, trees, hiking ideas, etc.

Tips for new guests?
Avoid pitching directly under trees if possible as branches might fall with strong winds. (There is a nice open area next to the fire pit)

Tell us about your experience
A unique and special location! We have always wanted to sleep in a piece of forest without being afraid that the forester will come out from behind a tree. With Samantha, that dream has come true!

Your own place in the middle of the forest! If you're not averse to walking for some water and not averse to being dirty (no shower), then this is a wonderful place!

The highway is audible, but it didn't bother us for a moment. You can wake up in the early morning by cycling mountain bikers who like to have conversations at high speed and therefore cycle over the paths screaming.

How was the contact with the host?
Fine! Fast and friendly!

Tips for new guests?
Bring a large jerry can for water.

Tell us about your experience
Beautiful camping spot on a private (and fenced) forest plot.
Nice that there is a (compost/sawdust) toilet.
The owners try to enjoy the forest in all kinds of ways through active forest management, creating a food garden and, last but not least, by building a real official survival course.
The nearby motorway unfortunately gives a background noise, and the mosquitoes unfortunately did not leave us untouched. But yes, that's nature too.
All in all, a nice camping spot on a beautiful and secluded forest plot. You have a wonderfully free feeling.

How was the contact with the host?
Fine, we were well and actively welcomed and guided around the site.

Tips for new guests?
Public water tap a few hundred meters from the plot, at the Cadetterzand car park. Make sure you have enough water bags, jerry cans or something similar for fetching and storing water.
Be prepared for mosquitoes.

Tell us about your experience
was great! We had a very private forest!

Tell us about your experience
A beautiful forest to relax in and leave the rushed life behind

How was the contact with the host?
Good! Nice contact in advance, a tour through the forest on arrival and a pleasant conclusion afterwards

Tips for new guests?
Take something from a water reservoir with you if you don't want to leave the forest during your stay if you are doing a (mini) retreat like me. There is a nice water tap a few hundred meters outside the forest.

Tell us about your experience
We thought it was a beautiful place and we would love to come back again. It was also very special to be the only campers allowed to stay in the forest. As a result, there was a lot of peace and privacy.

How was the contact with the host?
The contact in advance was fine and clear. On arrival, Samantha also gave us an extensive tour of the forest. Afterwards she also inquired about how our stay was. All in all a very nice host!

Tell us about your experience
I was looking for a place for myself, in nature. A place to relax, meditate and reflect. I definitely found that place! A piece of forest with nothing else. Perfect for what I wanted to do for 2 nights. There is a toilet and water is also a short walk away. As far as I'm concerned, that's just enough for easy camping. Top location and highly recommended for anyone who wants to escape the crowds and come to themselves in a minimalistic way.
I would definitely recommend a meditation session with Samantha for enthusiasts!

How was the contact with the host?
The contact was nice, correct and very smooth!

Tell us about your experience
What a super nice place! Here you camp in a beautiful piece of diverse forest that you have to yourself for your overnight stay(s). I think that the feeling of wild camping in the Netherlands (which is unfortunately not allowed) comes closest here. We had only booked one night, but would have liked to stay longer anyway.

How was the contact with the host?
Good! Samantha responds quickly to text messages and was ready to give us a tour of her piece of greenery. Very nice to know more about the place where you are going to sleep and what is there and to see in terms of nature.

Tips for new guests?
Especially: go here if you like that into the wild feeling. Here you sleep completely without other guests and not directly in someone's garden, so it cannot be compared with other campsites or camping spots in the Netherlands. In the evening, make a fire in the campfire pit with collected wood and during the day take a walk or relax with your camping equipment. Just book ;-)

Tell us about your experience
A real forest experience all to yourself. Private. Interesting to hear what's growing and how the hosts have handled it so far. You can easily cycle to Breda or Oosterhout. Beautiful walking and cycling routes. You are next to the highway but you get used to that noise. The offgrid toilet really very neat and clean.

How was the contact with the host?
Nice contact. Clear explanation at the start. It's also fascinating to hear what they've been up to in the woods.

Tips for new guests?
Nice cycling

Tell us about your experience
We camped very well. Here you really have the feeling that you are camping in the wild. Beautiful forest where you can relax. The survival track is also very nice. In the evening sitting cozy by the campfire makes it complete.
We enjoyed and will definitely come back.

How was the contact with the host?
We were kindly received by Samantha. She showed us where everything was and told us about the forest and what to do in the area.

Tips for new guests?
Beautiful natural environment where you can walk. If you like mountain biking, there is a mountain bike trail.

Tell us about your experience
We were kindly received by Samantha who could tell us extensively about their forest. The assault course that we were also allowed to use was well put together and is also used regularly. There was a nice fire pit and wood at the camping site so that we could light a small fire. There was also an outside toilet.

How was the contact with the host?
The contact was good, she told us everything about the forest, the changes they have made.

Tell us about your experience
Weekend camping in the woods. Beautiful grounds and very nice (walking) environment. In the forest received extensive explanation about the trees and the (food) forest. The forest was not yet ripe for food, but I did discover a huge amount of raspberries nearby. Can you find them too? Tip: a piece of heath on the left at the entrance of a forest. Worth it not just for the raspberries. Also spotted a buzzard pair in/around the forest. A nice addition could be a watchtower. On Sunday I also did a meditation in the forest with a personal and nice guidance and setting.
On my first day there were campers present who made more noise than I expected. That was a pity. But I consider this an incident. Not common in my opinion. I'd love to come back!

Tell us about your experience
Clear contact and very friendly. It is a beautiful unique place in a private forest where - due to the limited number of campers that are allowed - tranquility is guaranteed. In addition to your hiking boots, bring some clothes for climbing and scrambling on the impressive self-built obstacle course on site

Tell us about your experience
We were received kindly and patiently. First time for us and a great experience! Kindly received by Samantha, beautiful surroundings and many animals spotted on the property such as buzzard, deer, squirrel and bats. The highway makes some noise, but you don't hear that anymore after an hour. We definitely recommend it

Tell us about your experience
We had a nice experience in the forest with Samantha and her husband. The reception was nice and warm. The forest is in a beautiful area for walking, cycling, mountain biking. The food forest was not ready for picking yet, but we will definitely come back!

Tell us about your experience
We enjoyed our camping adventure.
Patricia was very friendly and her story about their forest was very interesting.
They have already done a lot of work with the piece of young forest and the survival course is really cool (and very challenging!)
We liked that primitive feeling and we slept well too
I hope we can go again soon because it is a unique place in a beautiful environment!

Tell us about your experience
Very nice place to camp. Samantha received us very kindly and told us a lot about the forest. The arrival and departure time are flexible, which is very handy for a cycling holiday. If you like 'wild' camping, it is definitely recommended!

Tell us about your experience
It was a nice place to spend the night outside. I enjoyed the birds.
The environment with the sand drifts is beautiful.
Don't expect an idyllic spot in the woods, because the highway and the illuminated gas station are visible and audible next to it. And from the terrain you can clearly see that a lot of work is being done to revitalize the piece of forest. The owner Samantha talked about it very enthusiastically. I'd love to come back again.

Tell us about your experience
After a warm welcome we had a private is at our disposal! We were in a beautiful spot and could enjoy the freedom.

Tell us about your experience
This was a prime location for us! Lots of nature to walk in, a private piece of forest with a fire pit, but still close to a supermarket. It is possible that people use the survival track, but you won't notice that on the other side of the forest. Samantha was very friendly and helpful.

Tell us about your experience
We had a complete family weekend in a very beautiful piece of nature. The contact was super easy and friendly from the start. Samantha gave us a tour and gave us all the important information. You really notice that they really love nature and are happy to share it with guests. Despite a lot of wind we were able to take a nice walk and light a nice fire in the evening. On Sunday we also did one of the mountain bike routes which is definitely recommended. Through Samantha we got the contact where we could borrow bicycles. We will definitely come back again.

Tell us about your experience
We had a very nice stay in the private forest of Samantha and Quillermo! A survival course has been built at the beginning of the forest, with wood from the forest. Super cool, but quite difficult to do!! Still a fun and active activity if you stay here. We were all alone in the woods with the camper, wonderful! In the evening we made a campfire and enjoyed the peace. You can hear the highway in the background, which is not far from here. But that didn't really bother us. We were early in the season so not much vegetation yet, but we can imagine that in a few weeks the forest will be beautiful! The food forest they are working on is also super fun! Very cool to see that so much attention is paid to nature!

Tell us about your experience
The location in Teteringen was very cool. A private forest with no entertainment and facilities other than a fire pit and a shovel in case you needed to 'go'. Maybe not enough for everyone but it was just what we needed this weekend. Samantha was quick to respond via the website and welcomed us into their forest upon arrival. After she and her husband left We got the fire going in no time and we prepared a stew that we'd let simmer over the flames for a couple of hours while we explored the campsite. Morning came too soon and we look forward to coming back.

Tell us about your experience
It's a nice place to be, I have seen bunnies and falcons near the camping site.
The owners were nice and showed me the way to the supermarket which was a bit further up. I do recommend taking a larger water bottle with you, because it's a short walk to the pump.

There was also a fire pit. You can go mountain biking very well, lots of trails and a beautiful area. to do this.
Definitely recommended for a walk in the dunes.

The only point was that I found it a pity, is that there is a car along the forest and you hear it now and then. So it is not completely silent. But rarely in Dutch places so...

So nice place!

Tell us about your experience
The private forest of Samantha is the ideal place to spend a few days outside and relax with your family or friends. The only thing you have to worry about is whether the fire is still burning well. I couldn't have wished for a better place in the Netherlands for primitive camping. The area is also beautiful and has enough to offer for a few days of hiking and/or mountain biking. Samantha is also very helpful and responds quickly when you have questions.

It is advisable to bring a large jerry can for water because the tap is a short walk from the site

Tell us about your experience
Super nice place in a private forest! Samantha had given us a nice tour and told us about all the plans they still have, such as the food forest, the shivers they make for the hedgehogs and the abundance of birds that visit the forest. Also present was a nice fire pit with enough firewood which we have made good use of ;-)
The only downside was that there was no toilet facility.

Tell us about your experience
If you are looking for a gorgeous setting for your next primitive camping trip this is the perfect spot! The Campspace offers exactly what we look for when we plan a minimalistic outdoor experience. Situated on a nice stretch of private forest where we could build our tarp shelter with a proper fire pit to keep us warm and to cook our dinner. The Campspace also offers a challenging obstacle course which adds to the survival setting. The surrounding area is also very forested and has great opportunities for hiking and mountain biking. Samantha is a very helpful and friendly hostess. She was very eager to accomodate any specific requests we had and took the time to send us a tip as to where we could possibly go to rent bikes. We had an amazing time during our stay which was far too short to experience and see all of these things. Therefore we would be eager to come and visit this place again soon!

Samantha's little forest was the perfect getaway for an overnight stay with the family!

Tell us about your experience
A quiet getaway to reconnect with nature

I had a very relaxing stay in the middle of the woods, surrounded by trees, squirrels and a lot of fresh air. A perfect place for a quiet getaway and to reconnect with nature... Samantha was a very open and kind host who showed me around the site when I arrived. She gives mediation workshops in the forrest as well if you are interested. I will revisit this campspace again whenever I feel the urge tot escape the fast life.
