As BegaafdZorgtSE, I strive to offer everyone—including those with disabilities—the unique opportunity to enjoy a care vacation. My professional journey began in 2020 when I made the transition from employee to independent care entrepreneur. I noticed the lack of vacation options for people with disabilities, and that gave us the idea for an innovative project. My husband and I have created a 60-square-meter luxury care chalet in Opende where guests can stay and receive the necessary care as needed. At the “De Watermolen” nature vacation park in Opende, there is space for year-round residencies, and some of the vacation homes are also used as permanent residences. This creates a peaceful environment while still offering the chance to socialize when desired. The garden, measuring approximately 300 square meters, is sufficiently screened off to ensure privacy. The chalet is fully furnished and offers plenty of space to completely unwind.
Nature and surroundings
You can really hear how rich in nature the surroundings are from all the birds that live there. Cuckoos, storks, and geese fly around every day, and because there’s little traffic, you can hear them clearly. There are two large ponds in the area where you can go fishing, among other activities. Swimming is also an option, and the campground has been designed with recreational activities in mind. The surrounding area features heathlands, and the Wadden Sea is just about a half-hour drive away. There are picturesque towns to explore in the area, such as Surhuisterveen and Drachten. For cultural highlights, Leeuwarden and Groningen—both about a half-hour drive away—are definitely worth a visit, featuring attractions like the Martini Tower.
