This nature house is an inspiring retreat for women who long for peace, quiet, and mindfulness. A place where there are no obligations and where you can reconnect with yourself. Logement VrouwenVerademing is located in a wing of a farmhouse dating from 1873 in Ruinerwold, Drenthe. The guest room features a double bed covered with sheep’s wool and organic cotton, a cozy sitting area, and a desk. Beautiful natural light streams in through the barn windows, creating an atmosphere free of distractions. There is a private bathroom with a shower and separate toilet right next to the room. Outside, there is a lush, enclosed front yard with several seating areas in both sun and shade. The spacious private pool (including beach towels and lounge chairs) is available for your use. Breakfast, coffee, and tea are included. If desired, a homemade dinner can be prepared for you in the evening. Extras such as dinner + dessert including 2 drinks, homemade kombucha & liqueur (€30), sauna (€30), and bike rental (€15) can be reserved on-site. Minimum stay is 4 nights

Nature and surroundings

Our large farmhouse is tucked away among the greenery along the 7-kilometer-long pear orchard in Ruinerwold. You can spend hours wandering through the beautiful rural surroundings, where time seems to have stood still a bit and where the villagers still greet you. Villages such as Havelte, Dwingeloo, and Ruinen are within cycling distance. In Ruinerwold itself, you’ll find a supermarket, a historic café, the De Karstenhoeve museum farm, and a few smaller shops. If you’d like to do a bit more shopping, the charming town of Meppel is a good option, and the historic Hanseatic city of Zwolle is easily reachable by train in just 15 minutes. Just 500 meters from the farmhouse, there’s a good bus connection to Meppel and several other villages. Meppel itself has a train station. For hikers, there are several hiking trails starting from the inn that wind past picturesque, historic farms. A little further away lies Dwingelderveld National Park.

    Everything is perfect for a wonderful, relaxing stay!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Four wonderful nights and days in a beautiful setting.
    I enjoyed the peace and quiet, doing nothing, swimming in the pool surrounded by greenery, or watching the chickens in the front yard. And when you’re done doing nothing, you can hop on a bike to explore the beautiful surroundings.
    Let go of the daily grind for a while—no cooking, cleaning, or doing dishes. Just enjoy!

    I look back on my stay with fond memories. I really enjoyed the peace and quiet, the hospitality, and the personal attention. They listened carefully and tailored their service to my needs. The food and the pleasant conversations also made my stay complete. A wonderful place for anyone looking for peace and quiet (and personal attention).

    "Wow!!" is the best way to describe it. I came here looking for some peace and quiet in nature, and I found that—and so much more! Katja is a wonderful, warm hostess with such attention to detail and such care for you as a guest. She’s so generous with her time, takes care of all the little pleasures and treats, offers a listening ear, and shares her wisdom and intuitive insight.

    From the very first moment, I felt so at home, cared for, seen, and completely pampered. I had my own beautiful space in the guesthouse where I truly found peace. And then there’s the beautiful farm, including “Deel”—a lovely bar where breakfast, prepared with so much love, was waiting for me in the morning, along with fresh herbal tea and treats always on hand. I highly recommend staying for dinner as well! Every day I ate truly divine meals, tailored to my medical diet and so nourishing, healing, beautiful, and delicious! I also got to participate in a very special cacao ceremony in the beautiful conservatory. I would have loved to stay there forever. Dear Katja and Harry, thank you so much once again!!

    What an AMAZING place!!! I highly recommend Katja’s to any woman looking for peace, quiet, nature, and a sense of being taken care of! I’ve also told all my friends about it.

    The farm is such a lovely, beautiful place where people live, work, and garden with so much love. Katja and Harry have truly turned this into a paradise.

    It was wonderfully quiet with a fantastic atmosphere; I slept so soundly and deeply in a delightful bed and felt completely safe and secure. The farm is gorgeous with its old beams and thatched roof, the lovely garden with cute chickens and all those cozy spots to sit, overlooking the beautiful vegetable garden—and on top of that, a sauna, a pool, and an incredibly beautiful food forest!!
    The surrounding area is also wonderful for walking, with even more beautiful farms and the natural beauty of Drenthe!

    I could go on and on because, wow, I wish every woman could experience this place :) I’d love to come back again!
