  Descripción

  We are a family of 5. Jean Paul, Cindy and our 3 children (20,18 and 9 years old). We both worked in the travel and tourism industry. 7 years ago we decided to start our own small holiday accommodation and bought this old farmhouse. We renovated the building with a lot of help from workawayers (and we are not ready yet...). Now we rent out 2 accommodations: a studio and a holiday house. Our goal is to offer a place where guests can relax and have quality time together in a natural environment.
  
  Throughout the season we need help working in the vegetable and flower garden, general maintenance, cooking and general household chores. Weeding and lawn mowing are also part of the work.We need help in the private part of the building, not for the company.
  
  The farm is situated in the country site. The city centre of Zwolle is only 10 minutes by car, 30 minutes by bike. Zwolle is situated in the central East of the Netherlands. Amsterdam, Utrecht and Groningen are easy to reach by car or train within the hour.
  As you can read in our feedbacks, we really like to meet new people and other cultures. We love to share and spend time together, next to the (sometimes hard) work.

  Cindy is running the business (B&B and holiday home) and Jean Paul is working for the National Forestry. Our direct neighbours are still farming with cows and sheep. Zwolle is an ancient city with stone walls and medieval buildings. Deventer (35km), Kampen (20km), Hattem (20km) and Zwolle are other Hanseatic cities nearby. Within 45 minutes you can visit several national parks (Weerribben Wieden, Sallandse Heuvelrug, Drents Friese Wold, Drentse AA, Hoge Veluwe). Zwolle has a big diversity in cultural events during these months. We like to tell you about our culture and the area and show you around!

  Alojamiento

  We have a caravan available with a small toilet. Workawayers use this caravan as a living space. Ofcourse in summertime we also spend a lot of time outside. You can take a shower in our house. This summer, we will try to have 2-4 workawayers at the same time. We will put tents around the caravan and create a mini campsite ;).
