Come camp in our fire truck. It is a beautiful specimen in the garden of our farm and on the edge of the orchard. Here you may put your feet up on your own terrace, light a fire in the evening and collect your own chicken egg for your breakfast. The shower used to be a sheltered (outdoor) shower with hot water and a roof. From May 2024 you will use a sanitary unit and that gives a lot more comfort! Tip: A Whole Week Booked for a Price. So take advantage of that ;)
Nature and surroundings
There is absolutely "nothing" to experience here. No traffic jams, no big events and no major tourist attractions. Here you will find peace, space and a wide view. Here live people with wind-in-the-hair and 'faraway-eyes' trained to peer over the vast fields. Don't have faraway eyes? Bring binoculars and from your camping spot you are sure to spot a buzzard, harrier or a pair of deer. If you go to 't Wad and stand in the right place, you might spot a seal, but you are sure to spot all kinds of water and meadow birds: from spoonbill, avocet or stilt-walker and from lapwing to even black-tailed godwit or snipe. From here the boat leaves for the first German Wadden Island. The most beautiful nature can be found here on the border of land and sea. So you can cycle "over" the dike to Delfzijl, if you have a car (which is recommended) then you can visit all kinds of little gems from here: a borg, a huge bird hide and the northernmost brown cafe.

A nice location
Een leuke locatie
A very nice experience to sleep in an old fire engine.The view is also nice that you can look over the meadows far away.You are close to Eemshaven for a crossing to Borkum.
Een hele leuke ervaring om in een oude brandweerauto te slapen.
Het uitzicht is ook mooi dat je over de weilanden ver weg kunt kijken.
Je zit dicht bij de Eemshaven voor een overtocht naar Borkum.This text is automatically translated. -

Everything present, at camping+ level. Perfect price-quality ratio.
Alles aanwezig, op camping+ niveau. Perfecte prijs kwaliteit verhouding.
An oasis amid the farmland, small but nice! Owner Kim has thought of everything, dog Charlie was a favorite of our kids, cat Puck also came to greet us, and the rooster (nicknamed "Mucho Macho" by our kids) & his little chickens came to socialize.
Nice fires and marshmallows roasting, cooking with the stove, and the kids had fun on the trampoline every day. Great stay in the fire truck and the attached tent, Groningen city less than a half hour drive away, we enjoyed!Een oase te midden het boerenland, klein maar fijn! Eigenaresse Kim heeft aan alles gedacht, hond Charlie was favoriet bij onze kids, poes Puck is ons ook komen begroeten, en de haan (door onze kids de bijnaam "Mucho Macho" gegeven) & zijn kippetjes kwamen gezellig buurten.
Lekker fikkie gestookt en marshmallows geroosterd, gekookt met de heksenketel, en de kids hebben zich dagelijks uitgeleefd op de trampoline.
Prima verblijf in de brandweerwagen en het bijgezette tentje, Groningen stad op nog geen half uur rijafstand, wij hebben genoten!!This text is automatically translated. -
