About this campspace

Come and enjoy the tranquility at the back of our property, or move closer to the horse farm and enjoy the sound of the horses in the background and the sight of our wonderful animals. If you're lucky you might just see a newborn foal in the spring!


For children there is enough space between the camping pitches so that they can play nicely, we also have go-karts, a playground / climbing frame, and a table tennis table. In bad weather there are opportunities to come and play table football during the opening hours of the canteen, there is an unofficial billiard table and a nice sitting area with a sofa to sit back and relax. There is also an exercise bike and a cross trainer for the enthusiast!

We have transformed a former golf course into a small nature reserve, with a mini campsite, a riding school with large and small horses.
At the back of the site are 2 places for off grid camping.

Tips

  • View the starry sky at night, visit the Veenpark

  • Enjoy the very bird-rich terrain.

Had an off-grid spot for a night with the tent. Nice quiet place. In the evening we had a nice meal in the restaurant and in the morning Xander brought a bag with a nice breakfast (for a fee of course). The sanitary facilities are good.

How was the contact with the host?
Relaxed, nice helpful people

Tell us about your experience
Had a wonderful weekend for the 2nd time on this spacious off grid spot. A really beautiful place, with lots of greenery and lots of privacy. Enjoy the birds and ponies as neighbors. It was a bit of a walk to the sanitary facilities, but that is good for the muscles and tendons ;) In the morning an extensive and well-cared-for breakfast was brought to the tent. For us it was really perfect.

How was the contact with the host?
Nice! Xander and Caroline are very hospitable.

Beautiful, green and quiet place. Contact with campsite owner Xander felt free, everything ran very naturally. Sanitary and tents kept clean and tidy, fully equipped. Very pleased, thankful to have been to this place. Thank you so much Xander and Caroline!

How was the contact with the host?
Smooth, relaxed, thoughtful.

Tips for new guests?
We were there in mid-May, hardly any other guests, so we had a lot of space. Tents are spread out on an open field so when it is busy there will be less privacy.

Had a wonderful weekend in a super spot. Incredibly beautiful terrain with a group of horses as neighbors. At the very back a lovely off grid spot. With the luxury of a very neat sanitary building.

How was the contact with the host?
Very friendly. Are ready if you have any questions and are very cordial.

Tips for new guests?
Definitely go there.

Tell us about your experience
It was wonderful camping off grid at Stieltjeshoeve. The hills of the old golf course, the horses and wild flowers in the meadow really make it a unique experience. Caroline and Xander are very hospitable and even brought breakfast to the tent!

Brigit

Tell us about your experience
We were off grid for 1 night. You have a lot of privacy but you do have to cross the 'hills' by car. Because it had rained a lot, it was still exciting. The camping area was muddy and full of puddles, but with better weather you'll be fine there. Fortunately, off grid was a bit higher and therefore dry.
The sanitary facilities are clean and modern and the shower was lovely.

How was the contact with the host?
Super! Xander also helped us very quickly when the car would not start.

Quiet campsite with good WiFi and good sanitary facilities. Spacious pitches and dog friendly. We had a nice week in Stieltjeskanaal.

Good afternoon, thank you for your positive review. You eventually chose a "normal" place with electricity and wifi. There is no wifi on the off-grid part of the site.
Hope to see you soon!
