It was a very pleasant experience. The farmer was incredibly nice and engaged both my children continuously to participate in horse and pony activities. My answers below rate 10 as best and 1 as lowest.

Der Reiterhof war toll, Zelte waren auch in Ordnung. Leider gab es in der Nähe ein Techno Festival, was sehr gestört hat. Dafür konnte unser Bauer aber natürlich nichts…

We genieten enorm van het Farmcamps principe. Zeker voor onze dochter die gek op paarden is was dit een schot in de roos. Iedereen was even hartelijk en we voelden ons enorm welkom. Helaas waren minder activiteiten dan wij gewend zijn zeker in een Pinksterweekend waarbij er in de omgeving ook minder mogelijkheden zijn.

Heel fijn, veel gedaan en plezier gehad.

This rural horse farm, owned by Gert Jan and his kids, is a true horse paradise. Here you can book riding lessons, walk with the ponies and, of course, play a lot. And all that less than a 10 minutes' drive from the German border.
We would like to invite you to the horse farm of farmer Gert Jan and his family. At this lovely place, surrounded by greenery and a stone’s throw from Enschede, it’s all about the 70(!) horses and ponies that live here. The farm serves as a boarding stable and 5-star (FNRS) riding school, where both beginners and advanced riders get their money’s worth. Join in a riding lesson in dressage or jumping, have your own private lesson under the guidance of a qualified instructor, walk with one of the lovely walking ponies, play games with the ponies and, of course, help groom and pamper them extensively. The lead role is for shetlander Mex. Every day, he will take a walk around the tented field and loves to be cuddled and brushed. But of course, ‘non-horse geeks’ have also been thought of. They can have hours of fun on the playing facilities in the yard. Chilling in the bird’s nest swing, spinning around in the carousel for hours, doing flips on the trampoline, playing table tennis or football, messing about with sand and water at the water track or exploring the farm on the go-kart. The meadow is also home to Dinkey and Donkey, the sweet and curious donkeys, who love a good cuddle, as do the rabbits in the cuddle barn. And every morning you can help feed the chickens and, of course, collect an egg for breakfast. The daily operation is in the hands of farmer Gert Jan but of course he is helped by a friendly team of young people. They take care of all the horses and ponies and give riding lessons. On weekends, you will also meet Gert Jan’s 2 children, Xander and Anouk, on the farm. This peacefull place used to be a dairy farm. Gert Jan’s father kept 80 cows here. To stay afloat, in 2005, they added boarding horses and this suited them so well that the cows slowly disappeared. Dad still lives next to the farm and enjoys a chat with the guests. Farmer Gert Jan and his staff also love to have fun and organise amusing games, a handicraft hour or light the campfire to roast marshmallows. And how about a trip in the horse-drawn wagon through the area (if there is enough interest) while playing bingo? And while the kids have fun on the farm, you can enjoy a drink in the canteen. By the way, you can also get chips, snacks and delicious pizzas and pancakes here. Saves another evening of cooking and washing up. Nice and easy. And if you really can’t see a horse for a while, get in the car and grab a terrace in Germany. The possibilities are endless as you can read and farmer Gert Jan and his team are eager to welcome you here!

Where do I sleep?

At Holzik Stables, the 10 luxury tents are playfully set up on a beautiful field right behind the stables. The tent field is surrounded by horse pastures, so you get up with a view of all the lovely horses and ponies. You sleep in a Farm Tent with air conditioning, private bathroom with rain shower and your own BBQ, so it's all luxury.

Fun and Educational

No farm adventure would be complete without learning a thing or two from the professionals. No farm adventure would be complete without learning a thing or two from the professionals. And farmer Gert Jan and his colleagues personally make sure of that. Here, everything revolves around the sweet horses and ponies that you can help look after, cuddle and, of course, ride every day.

Dinkey and Donkey, the super sweet donkeys, also love to be cuddled. Farmer Gert Jan also has very lovely chickens that you can help feed every day and, of course, collect their eggs.

If you rather like to play, you will certainly also enjoy this yard. You can spend hours on the carrousel, swinging, jumping on the trampoline, racing on the go-karts or messing about with water and sand.

Convenient and delicious

Looking for ultimate relaxation? Your breakfast will be delivered to your tent in the morning. And if you fancy an evening BBQ, you don’t need to leave the site for that either. You can also order fresh rolls every day. Gert Jan and his team arrange it all for you!

The equestrian centre also has a canteen where you can go every day between 15.00 and 20.00 for a drink and, for example, a tasty chip, sandwich, panckes or oven-fresh pizza.

No one likes going home with a bag of dirty washing, Then order the Towel Pack and rent the one and only FarmCamps farmer’s overall for the kids. Your mini-farmers will not only look great but their clothes will not get so dirty either!

You can order all your extras at the point of booking, but if you are not sure yet don’t worry, you can also order them on the spot.

This is all there is to do nearby

We know from experience that you probably won’t leave the farm. Simply because there is so much to do at FarmCamps Holzik Stables and the kids won’t be bored for a minute. And then the parents have a good time too, right?

If you do want to see something of the surrounding area, this part of Overijssel offers plenty. Beautiful nature, lovely villages in the area, and within a 10-minute drive you can even reach Germany! So there’s something for everyone.
