Traditional dairy farm in Zweeloo, Drenthe

Rubbing shoulders with royalty…

This traditional dairy farm is situated in Zweeloo, Drenthe and honours all their cows with royal names – so here you can be sure to rub shoulders with queens and princesses! Sitting at the end of a dead end road, this farm is uniquely situated for peace and tranquility with only meadows and forests for as far as the eye can see. Don’t be surprised if you wake up to find cows grazing next to your luxury tent – you are in the royal circle! Together with their six young children, Farmer Johan is always on hand taking care of and enjoying the company of his cows and calves. Here your mini-farmers can really learn and experience life on a traditional dairy farm and before you know it – they’ll only want to drink milk fresh from the cow! Never taking life too seriously, Farmer Johan is known to start water fights on sunny days or take you for a ride on his wagon into the woods and let you find your own way home!

What a great choice!

Enjoy no less than 150 cows and calves

This is what makes this farm so much fun!

Finding out is fun!

No farm adventure would be complete without learning a thing or two from the professionals. Farmer Johan and his wife Matine take this very personally! So you can expect to join Farmer Johan every day when he gets to work milking the cows or you can have a cuddle with the other animals in the petting barn. If you are more in the mood to play then you won’t be disappointed! Here you’ll find go-karting, trampolines and a sand pit great for building sand castles. Or why not join your new farm friends to build a hut in the nearby woods? Here there are no rules – just enjoy yourself!

Farmer's Passport

During check-in all children are offered a Farmer’s Passport from FarmCamps. These are loaded with fun and educational activities which they can do independently or together with their farmer. Your mini-farmers can discover and experience real life on a farm. For each completed task they will receive a stamp in their Farmer’s Passport. When their work is done they will graduate with their own farmhand diploma!

Farm Tours

During your stay Farmer’s wife Matine will show you the ropes with a guided tour of the farm. She will share with you the pleasure they get from working the land and raising their livestock. Experience this unique chance to go where only farmers dare to go and soak up the special stories they´ll share with you about the farm they love and care for.

Making Yoghurt

Together with Matine you will learn how to make delicious yogurt from fresh farm milk – and of course you will get to taste it too!

Getting cows out of the meadow

Every day you can accompany Farmer Johan to collect the cows in from the field and join him in the dairy to help him milk the cows. Free of charge of course!

Feeding the animals

Of course, the small animals also need to eat something every day. Join the tour along the animals and help farmer’s wife Matine or one of the children feed them.

Kiddie trolley

If your mini-farmers are too small to take a walk to the woods then why not hire a kiddie trolley? They will love the ride!

Campfire

What is more fun than ending the day altogether with a campfire? Enjoy the sunset whilst the kids are roasting marshmallows.

Ponies

Do you like ponies too? Pony rides are regularly organised or there is the opportunity to brush Sofie and Polly. Keep an eye on the activity board! Would you like to go for a ride outside the yard? Ask for the possibilities.

Build huts

In the nearby forest there is always material to build your own hut. With your new friends it will be a great adventure!

Playing

If you like to play, this is the place to be! You can play football, build huts, tear around on the go-karts or just splash around with sand and do somersaults on the trampoline.

Practical & delicious

Looking for ultimate relaxation? Well look no further because Farmer’s wife Matine is up and about at the crack of dawn and happy to deliver breakfast to your tent! And of course there is always the small on-site farm shop where you can pick up your basics and a few treats. No one likes going home with a bag of dirty washing, so we recommend you order the towel bundle and rent some genuine FarmCamp overalls 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.

Breakfast in Tent

A deliciously fresh farmers breakfast delivered to your tent including fresh bread, milk, juice, yoghurt, eggs (you cook these to your own liking) and of course a variety of condiments.

Baby bundles

No need to lug around your own baby gear! This package includes a baby bed, high chair and a changing mat. Don’t forget to bring your baby’s own bed linen though.

FarmCamp Mini-Farmers Overalls

Not only will your mini-farmers look very cool in these red overalls but you’ll be sure their clothes don’t get ruined!
