Studio Oldehof

This charming studio is located in the part of our farm, where we try to apply as many principles of self-sufficient living as possible. In the garden we use permaculture and agroforestry to develop an edible garden. At night it is dark and quiet here unless the chicks of the church ducks are shouting for their mother. Many special animals live here. In the immediate vicinity you can enjoy nature through an extensive network of dirt roads and trails. The space The studio is partly furnished with second-hand items and is cleaned with ecological cleaning products. We dry the laundry on the line as much as possible. We feed food scraps to the animals or give them to the compost heap. Bed linen, towels and tea towels are included in the cleaning fee. Guest access You have your own terrace at your disposal, but you are also welcome in other places in our garden. We have a number of fireplaces where a fire may be lit in consultation.
