About this location

To be completely alone.
In the middle of nature.
Outside of the time and outside world.
Curious about what arises.
In the orchard behind the old farmhouse far from the buildings (> 50m) we have a cozy furnished gypsy wagon you can stay in. The orchard is located in the IJsselvalei near Deventer and is surrounded by meadows. You can be completely alone in the middle of nature.
In the barn of the house we have built a shower and toilet. We used tiles from all kinds of people around us that were left and made a colorful design. There is also a campfire place to make a fire under the stars in the evenings. There is wood available for some extra costs. Regularly our wood oven turns on and you can join us for a homemade pizza.

Together with my husband and kids Sven (12 years old) and Jiri (10 years old) I have been lucky to live on the Mommenhoeve. It's an old farmhouse in the IJssel valley close to Deventer with a huge fruit and nut orchard. I love making campfires behind the orchard and under a starry sky; either by myself or with other campers. I work as a photographer, artist, firekeeper and writer exploring living in connection with (our) nature. I love discovering new paths, both in work as being a parent, education and connecting to nature. But also literally; walking on new trails, meeting new people and following the curiosity of my children. Recently my book 'Paving new paths' came out about pioneering and following your own way and adventure. I keep discovering how nice it is to be completely by myself in nature and I love to share this experience. If you are coming to stay for a solo camping trip, I will make sure there are no others around. Immerse yourself with nature and 'nothingness'.
