Wonderful
Datum van verblijf: januari 2024
It was a great experience! We had a wonderful time there, feeding the cows and sheep, and petting the cats. The fireworks on New Year’s Eve were beautiful and unforgettable!
For travelers, if you driving and wanna feel the beauty of the Dutch countryside, then this is a great option to spend with your family!
Thank you so much Gerard for showing us around the farm, and it was also very convenient to stay here! I really love it here! 2024，Happy New Year！
Great holiday
Datum van verblijf: september 2023
We had a great 2 week family holiday at the farm. We loved the pigs (and they loved to be cuddled) and the other animals, the surroundings. Great location for day trips to lots of nice cities, to the beaches or for canooing on the canals in the countryside.
Thanks to Gerard and Evelyn for hosting us.
Giocando
Datum van verblijf: juli 2023
Abbiamo soggiornato 10 giorni e siamo stati benissimo. Gerard e la moglie sono stati host simpatici e disponibili, utili anche per consigli su come spostarsi. I miei figli erano contentissimi di stare nella fattoria, giocando con il cane oppure guardano mucche, gattini e maiali.
Freundlich
Datum van verblijf: juli 2023
Wir führten uns sehr wohl, nette Vermieter, reichhaltiges Tierleben (bei uns waren Katzenbabys,Küken und Schwalbenbabys da), eine wunderbare Natur, die zum Radfahren und Wandern einlädt. Gerard ist sehr unkompliziert und immer freundlich. Die Wohnung für uns 7 Urlauber war groß und ruhig. Urlaubsempfehlung:-)
Recommend this place
Datum van verblijf: juni 2023
Gerard place very peacefull and family friendly. The location is easy to find and we really love the warm welcome by Gerard and the family. Friendly cats & dog. All amenities in the room are good. We love the setup of the big table at the living/dining area. Beds are comfy and we feel very private in the unit. Host very responsive and we love walking around the farm. Short stays with a lot of things to do, we hope we stay longer to play around with bicycles and mini tractors. We really recommend this place
Great stay
Datum van verblijf: april 2023
We had a great stay at the farm. The children loved being able to see the animals, ride the toy tractors and play on the trampoline, all of this was right on our doorstep. They were also very happy to be able to help Gerard feed the animals. The location is very good for exploring the Netherlands by car, most of the major attractions are easily drivable. The village also very pleasant to walk around and had all of the necessary shops and facilities for our visit. The apartment was comfortable and spacious and had everything we needed.

Accueil chaleureux et site genial
Nous avons apprécié
Kids liked it
Datum van verblijf: mei 2022
Our children (aged 5 and 6) really enjoyed the animals on the farm, including many cats, cows, sheep (plus newborns), pigs, a hen, and some rabbits in the field. The area is very suitable for playing on the grass, riding a bike, play football, and trampoline. The location is very close to a bus stop and a food store. Gerard and his wife are very easy to communicate with, helpful, and very welcoming.
Kids friendly
Date of stay: September 2021
The farm is a kids friendly place. There are a lot of animals there and the kids can play with them. That is awesome!!! Great location and the hosts are very nice 🙂
Genieten
Date of stay: August 2021
Heerlijk genieten aan het eind van het dijkje, kijkend over de weilanden met hun vogels en de dieren op de boerderij. Je voelt je direct op je gemak omdat de eigenaren zo relaxed zijn en gastvrij.
Like home
Date of stay: July 2021
Owner of farm is very kind and hospitable person. Apartment was spacious, with comfortable place for eating and cooking. Kitchen was full off pots, frying pans, glass, mugs, plates and cutlery. We felt like in home.
Echte boerderij
Date of stay: June 2021
Een echte boerderij met alles erop en eraan. Koeien, schapen, kleine kittens en nog veel meer. Onze kinderen waren erg enthousiast. De omgeving is fantastisch en je kunt leuke uitstapjes maken in de omgeving. Graag weer.
Geweldige plek
Date of stay: April 2021
Geweldige plek om er met kinderen een paar dagen tussenuit te gaan. Iedereen op de boerderij is erg vriendelijk en deelt graag wat er aan de hand is. Mijn kinderen vonden het erg leuk om tijd door te brengen met de lammeren, schapen, varkens en koeien. De trampoline, speelkamer en gratis fietsen maakten het lange weekend ook tot een geweldige ontsnapping vol tijd buiten. Het appartement zelf is groot en heeft alles wat je nodig hebt.
Erholsame Ferien
Date of stay: August 2020
Die Lage des Bauernhofs ist sehr schön. Insbesondere fürFamilien mit Kindern ist der Urlaub auf diesem Bauernhof ein Traum. Es gibt Tiere, ein Trampolin, schöne Plätze unter freiem Himmel. Die Ferienwohnung ist gut eingerichtet und mit allen wichtigen Gegenständen ausgestattet. Den nächsten Supermarkt erreicht man von hier zu Fuß. Von hier aus erreicht man viele Ausflusgziele in kurzer Zeit, ansonsten spürt man hier aber vom Massentourismus nichts. Eventuell könnte man sich durch den Flugverkehr gestört fühlen, doch unsere Erholung war dadurch nicht beeinträchtigt.
Beautiful
Date of stay: August 2020
Really beautiful place. Apartment very well equipped. A giant trampoline in the garden. Cows. The possibility of cycling in the vicinity. Too bad we only stayed 2 nights…
Echt een aanrader!
Date of stay: July 2020
Wij zijn hier een week geweest in het zespersoons appartement. Het was een zeer ruim appartement met alle voorzieningen. (Goeie WiFi ook). De woonkamer kan misschien iets huiselijker ingericht worden maar dat is een klein detail. Heerlijk groot terras aan de voorzijde dat je wel deelt met het naastgelegen 4/5 kamer appartement. Wij hadden daar totaal geen last van. Het uitzicht over de velden en de prachtige boerderij is top. Ook heel fijn dat er een wasmachine en droger is.
De persoonlijke ontvangst van Gerard en Eveline was super. Je kunt ze ook altijd bereiken bij vragen. Voor onze kids was genoeg te zien op de boerderij met de dieren en de vooral hele sociale en vriendelijke waakhond.
Op de boerderij zijn fietsen die kunt lenen. Op een paar minuten in Nieuwveen een goeie supermarkt en in de omgeving voldoende te doen en te zien.
Al met al een mooi idyllische plek met vriendelijke eigenaren en prima appartementen.
Bauernhof

Der Bauernhof ist für Familien mit Kindern perfekt. Das große Trampolin und die schöne Sitzgelegenheit sind super.
Pleasure
Date of stay: July 2020
Hello Gerard. It was a pleasure to spend time in your accommodation. We had a wonderful time! We like the room very much. It was very clean and we found everything which we needed. Perfect to have a washing mashine outside free of use and also the games. Our daughter liked it a lot especially the trampoline outside and of course the animals. We would definitely spend another vacation in your accommodation. Thank you!
Een prachtig appartement, van alle gemakken voorzien
Date of stay: July 2020
So wonderful to be surrounded by fields and canals and animals, both farm and wild. Shooting stars and harvest moons aren’t something we see living in a city, and for this view to welcome you every day was quite special.
The house is situated perfectly in the middle of fields, yet only a few minutes walk to the nearest shop. There are other amenities in the village, including bike hire and a bar with a lovely outside seating area backing onto the canal which we visited. The ice cream shop was also a hit!
The lake at Nieuwkoop is a 20 minutes cycle ride away and there are many cycle routes in the surrounding area to see the beauty of the Groene Hart. There is a sand beach on one edge of the Nieuwkoop lake with a restaurant (Strand Zomer) that became our favourite swimming spot, and it was lovely to canoe through the waterways on the lake in complete silence, listening to the birds and insects. No otters for us though! Fabulous to have time to explore the nature of this beautiful area.
The apartment was exceptionally clean, and very well equipped with all mod cons including a washing machine and tumble dryer you can use in a common area. Beautiful fresh flowers welcomed us as well as all the amenities needed such as dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid and kitchen towels etc. The beds were very comfortable, and the seating area perfect for a family of 4. The mosquito mesh on the windows was also welcome! We didn’t make much use of the rec room, as the weather was wonderful during our week long stay, but the trampoline was a hit with the kids! There are several outside seating areas, either in the shade or sun to enjoy.
The highlight of our stay however was getting to know Gerard & Eveline. They are so willing to share their experiences of living on their farm (that Gerard was born on!) and open to sharing farm life. The kids were invited to feed the calves and ride the tractor if Gerard wasn’t too busy. They are truly are such wonderful people and I enjoyed many an hour chatting with them.
Merci
Date of stay: December 2019
Merci à Gérard pour son accueil chaleureux, le gîte dans sa ferme est très très agréable, au calme, très bien équipé et très propre. De plus, il se situe à 30 min environ de Rotterdam et Amsterdam, deux très chouettes villes à visiter! Je vous recommande fortement le gîte de Gérard
Great stay
Date of stay: November 2019
Our stay at Gerard’s place was great ! The house is very comfortable and offer anything you may need. We are thankful for his hospitality and recommend Gerard as a host to all other guests !
Traumurlaub 2019
Date of stay: July 2019
Es war ein wunderbarer Urlaub. Wer Urlaub auf dem Bauernhof erwartet, findet hier alles. Die Umgebung ist sehr schön und es gibt Fahrräder, zur freien Benutzung.
Die Gastgeber sind sehr nett und haben uns viele Tips für Tagesausflüge gegeben. Badesee, Amsterdam, Gouda, Schwimmbad, Motorboot-Ausflug- alles in kurzer Zeit mit dem Auto erreichbar.
Very beautiful
Date of stay: May 2019
We were a family of four and every day we were trying to convince our children to leave the house and go around the country because they didin’t want to leave the place. Very beautiful area, needs a car but in 5 minutes away there is a s/m open until 10 am! It was very usefull to us. Also central enough for trips arround Holland. The house very cozy and clean with all the necessary for a family.
Lovely farm
Date of stay: May 2018
Great place to stay to explore surrounding areas – day trips to Amsterdam, Madurodam, marken, vollendam, Haarlem and Leiden. Super for children because of space to play, go-karts and trampoline. We enjoyed meeting the rabbit and the calves too.
Beautiful property and wonderful place to stay
Date of stay: April 2019
Myself, my husband and our two children ages six and eight recently stayed at this farm. We had a wonderful stay, and really enjoyed everything about this location. Our children especially enjoyed ending our days jumping on the trampoline, playing in the games room or just relaxing in our unit. Beds were very comfortable, and we had everything we needed for our stay. We would definitely recommend this property.
Beautiful apartment
Date of stay: March 2018
We had a great experience here. The hosts were welcoming and the apartment was beautiful – in perfect condition with plenty of space for our family. My 2-year old enjoyed exploring the farm and especially loved seeing the tractors. And the location worked out perfectly. There are multiple park-and-rides within a 20-30min drive, so we could park our car for only €1 for the day and then take a tram right into Amsterdam.
Toller Urlaub, besonders für Kinder perfekt!
Date of stay: March 2018
Haben hier ein paar tolle Tage verbracht. Die Ferienwohnung ist toll und die Betten waren sehr bequem. Gerard und Eveline waren super nett und immer hilfsbereit. Absolut eine Reise wert.
Schöne, saubere und zentrale Ferienwohnung.
Date of stay: October 2017
Wir haben die Ferienwohnung für 4 Personen (2 Erwachsene und 2 kleine Kinder) angemietet. Wohnung liegt nur 20 min vom Airport entfernt. Ein schöner Bauernhof mit mehreren Wohnungen. Der Bauer wohnt mit auf dem Hof und ist sehr kinderlieb. Am ersten Tag durften unsere Kleinen schon die Kühe melken und mit dem Traktor fahren. Die Tiere und das Spielzeug lassen die Zeit im Flug vergehen. Wohnung ist sauber und mit Fussbodenheizung ausgestattet, es gibt eine Gemeinschaftswaschmaschine und der Supermarkt ist fussläufig erreichbar. Vom Bauernhof ist man mit dem Auto schnell in Amsterdam, Den Haag oder Rotterdam. Informationmaterialen für Ausflüge sind vor Ort vorhanden. Wir sind begeistert und werden wiederkommen.
Un sitio perfecto
Date of stay: August 2017
La casa tiene todas las comodidades, muy actual. El lugar , en plena naturaleza, es inmejorable si se quiere hacer turismo por Holanda, todas las ciudades y pueblos más conocidos a menos de 40 minutos. Justo al lado de la granja, 5 minutos andando, hay un pueblo muy tranquilo que tiene un supermercado, panadería, carnicería, restaurante, bar y hasta una peluquería. Los propietarios son encantadores y serviciales, hablan muy bien inglés y un poquito de francés. A los niños les encantó la sala de juegos con mesa de ping-pong y la cama elástica del jardín. También hay bicicletas a disposición de manera gratuita.
Sin duda recomendamos este alojamiento. Hemos pasado unas vacaciones muy bonitas conociendo Holanda y nos ha encantado. Es un país precioso.
The best place we could come to at the end of the day
Date of stay: August 2017
We stayed at the farm for a week with our young kids and we all loved it. The apartment was spacious, comfortable and fully equipped and the owners were very friendly and helpful. The kids loved the trampoline, the bicycle, the little tractors, the bunnies and the play room and the farm has a big part in their good memories from the trip. On the more practical side, we made great use of the washing machine and dryer, and the fact that we had a supermarket a few minutes walk away. and of course – the green fields everywhere you look… Highly recommended
Sad to leave
Date of stay: April 2017
Beautiful working farm!! My children cried when we had to leave … 20 mins from keukenhof fields and 30 from Amsterdam!! Amazing hosts who made us feel so welcomed!! We will be back for certain!!
