Description
Hello, I am Nicolette and I live and work here with my people and we have many friends that enjoy the place with us. I am a successful social entrepreneur, that comes up with new inventions or businesses all the time. I live in the the smallest house, together with Frommel, the Cuddling KillerCat and Nada the shy one. Furthermore there is Federico, our Italian manager, who found us via this website and never left 😁.
Here , no day is the same, but it's relaxed, fun and sometimes quite funny!
Come help us out with building, we are insulating the hay barn with raw sheep wool, there's a lot of work to be done. Next to that, there is plenty of other things that you could help us with, depending on your skills and your preferences;
More clear for the coming weeks: we need someone who is good in woodwork and someone who helps cleaning the houses after our guests leave. We also have a large veggie garden who needs love and attention. From May we are receiving a Bee hive so we need help with that as well.
We'll be happy to welcome you in our midst, and introduce you to the wonderful, nice & interesting people that often stay with us. Or, go to Amsterdam, or any other city, Our place is located close to both Amsterdam and Utrecht, and not too far away from The Hague and Rotterdam. We have 2 caravan's and 3 tent's ( with a good normal matras) 😁.
this website keep on ending up in my spamfolder. Be aware that we host people for a minimum of 14 days 😊 Thanks!

Accommodation
We have 2 camping cars on the terrain and 3 tent's . You can shower in the communial kitchen. n. We share the warm lunch together. You won’t be hungry. We would love to have a food lover!
If you like sauna and jacuzzi: this place has one, and you are welcome to use it, when there are no guest in the farm house.! The place offers enough opportunities to withdraw yourself in case you want some me-time.
What else ...
The surroundings are typical Dutch, with a lot of farm-land. You can swim or fish in the water around our house, make campfire and have long nights playing music in the garden together with our friends.
We live very close to Amsterdam and Utrecht. You can use the bike to go to the train station (8 minutes ride, or 20 minutes walk). From this trainstation, Breukelen CS, it's only 20 minutes to Amsterdam, and 15 to Utrecht.
