Welcome to the “De Ijsvogel” glamping tent in the Lansing Nature Reserve, located in the Green Heart between Reeuwijk and Boskoop. This off-grid glamping tent lives up to its name—it’s situated right along the flight path of the kingfishers that have built their nests in the adjacent ditch. You’re sure to hear them from the tent’s patio, and if you pay close attention, you might even spot them. The tent features a comfortable double bed, made up and ready for you, a fully equipped outdoor kitchen with a gas-powered cooler, and a covered patio with a table and chairs. The island is accessible only by boat and is completely surrounded by water. It’s a unique spot for birdwatchers and anglers. Here, you can truly experience the outdoors, as you’re in constant contact with the nature around you all day long. Wake up to the chirping of birds, the quacking of ducks, and the honking of geese. And fall asleep to the croaking of frogs—a beautiful sound. Wake up with a cup of coffee or tea on the terrace and watch as nature awakens.
Nature and surroundings
De Lansing Nature Reserve is a private nature reserve that was developed entirely by Mr. Jan van Leeuwen. It was formerly a tree nursery, and over the past 30 years, he has transformed it into a 6-hectare area featuring plenty of water and recreational islands. We rent out the islands with log cabins on an annual basis. The glamping tents are available only for short stays. Off-grid recreation on islands accessible only by boat. Nature comes first here, and as a visitor, you’re our guest. We, Marcel and Miranda, are now taking over management of this area, and with the glamping tents, we’re also offering options for short stays. It’s incredibly fun because everyone is wildly enthusiastic about our beautiful area. A unique piece of nature where you can also stay in a beautiful glamping tent equipped with all the comforts. A campfire in the fire pit, a barbecue, or some simple cooking—it’s all possible, but above all, come to enjoy the peace and quiet of this unique spot.

A nice, clean place.
Mooie schone tent.
A lovely campsite in a beautiful, “hidden” nature reserve. We really enjoyed the peace and quiet and the birds all around us.
Fijne tent in een mooi “verstopt” natuurgebied. Heerlijk kunnen genieten van de rust en vogels om ons heen.

Sure, it's back to basics, but that's what you're going for! Other than that, it has everything you could want. A fantastic little spot
Uiteraard back to basic, maar daar kies je voor! Verder heeft het alles wat je kan wensen. Fantastisch plekjew
A beautiful spot on a small island less than 150 meters by boat from the mainland, where you can take a shower. The tent is quite spacious, and the bed is surprisingly comfortable!
Prachtig plekje op een eilandje wat nog geen 150 meter varen van het vaste land is waar je kan douchen. De tent is vrij ruim en bed ligt verassend lekker!

We had a great time and will definitely be back!
Enorm naar ons zin gehad en komen zeker nog een keer terug!
A stunningly beautiful nature reserve with an impressive family history. It was wonderful to wake up to the sound of birds, and it’s a great spot for fishing—truly an oasis of peace! The glamping tent is also very well-equipped; everything you need is there, including a cooler, a BBQ, an outhouse, and a small gas stove. You reach the tent by rowboat, and on the mainland you can enjoy a nice shower and use the restroom. The family is very hospitable! We went on some lovely bike rides through the area.
Een enorm mooi natuurgebied met een indrukwekkend familieverhaal. Het was heerlijk wakker worden met de vogels en je kan er goed vissen, echt een oase van rust! De glampingtent is ook erg goed voor elkaar, alles wat je nodig hebt is er, oa koelbox, BBQ, natuurtoilet en gasstelletje. Met een roeibootje kom je bij de tent en op het vaste land kan je heerlijk douchen en ook naar de wc. De familie is erg gastvrij! Wij hebben erg mooi gefietst door de buurt.
