SamanthaDo you want to completely relax or being active? You can do both in the midst of our woods of 2.3 ha. The view offers a landscape of a variety of different trees and a young food forest. There is a survivalrun trail to practice your survival skills (your safety is your own responsibility!) or you can go hiking or cycling to the popular nature reserve the 'Cadettenkamp' or to nearby villages like Breda, Dongen or Dorst. There is an official mountain bike trail through the forest of Teteringen, which is one of the best maintained trail of Brabant. Our forest is fenced with a small fence, so there is no trespassing of hikers or bikers. There is a compost toilet in our forest and fresh water is nearby at 200 meters. You are allowed to make a small fire only in the fire pit and use branches which are already on the ground. Please don't leave any rubbish in the forest. Smoking is not allowed due to possible forest fires.

Welcome! My name is Samantha Pellicaan-Dik, 44 heights young, together with my husband Quillermo we are the happy owners of a large piece of forest. We like to share this beautiful forest with nature lovers. I run my own company, SaPeDi, where I make beautiful products from the pruned wood that lies in the forest. I also give workshops in the forest, such as forest baths and meditation. My husband, Quillermo, is a fairly fanatic survival runner himself and has built a very run course with pruned trees. Last year (2019) we planted an entire food forest, which is still growing and which we spend a lot of love and time on. It is great to be in the forest, who knows, you might hear and see our buzzard!

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

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

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 also slept well
I hope we can visit again soon because it is a unique place in beautiful surroundings!

Very nice place to camp. Samantha received us very friendly 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 would like to camp 'wild', it is definitely recommended!

It was a nice place to sleep outside for a night, I enjoyed the birds.
The area with the sand drift is beautiful.
Do not expect an idyllic spot in the forest, because the highway and the illuminated petrol station are visible and audible next to it. And from the terrain you can clearly see that hard work is being done on the revitalization of the piece of forest. The owner Samantha was very enthusiastic about this. I would love to come back.

This was a prime location for us! Lots of nature for walking, a private piece of forest with a fire pit, but still close to a supermarket. It may be that people use the survival track, but you don't notice it on the other side of the forest. Samantha was very friendly and helpful.

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 owe her that they really love nature and like to share this 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.

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 when you stay here. We were all alone in the forest 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, but we can imagine that in a few weeks the forest will look beautiful! The food forest they are working on is also super fun! Very cool to see that there is so much attention for nature!

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.

It's a nice place to be, I saw rabbits and falcons close to the camping spot.
The owners were nice and showed me the way to the supermarket which was a bit further up. I do recommend bringing a larger water bottle, because it is a short walk to the pump.
There was also a fire place. You can go mountain biking very well, lots of trails and a beautiful area. Do this.
Definitely recommended for a walk in the dunes.
The only point was that I thought it a pity is that a car has left along the forest and you hear it now and then. So it is not completely silent. But rarely in Dutch places ...
So a great place!

The private forest of Samantha is the ideal place to spend a few days outside with your family or friends and relax. The only thing you have to worry about is whether the fire is still burning properly. I could not 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 if you have any questions.
It is advisable to bring a large jerry can for water because the tap is a short walk from the site

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, 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 made good use of ;-)
The only downside was that there was no toilet facility.

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!

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.
