- All farm animals
What a great choice!
A very good idea, milking cows at Flakkee!
This is what makes this farm so much fun!
Goeree-Overflakkee is officially part of the South Holland province but it is actually regarded more as the northernmost island of Zealand, which makes sense because it lives and breathes all things Zealand. The island is surrounded by water from the Haringvliet nature reserve, the Grevelingen lake and of course the North Sea. With more than 25 kilometers of coastline you can always find a peaceful spot on the water.
Despite a few crowds around the famous resort of Ouddorp, FarmCamps Op Flakkee is located in a very peaceful area on the island just on the outskirts of Middelharnis (great for shopping) and a stone’s throw from the dyke along the Haringvliet.
On this farm you can choose from one of our 20 luxury tents. The Hay Tent includes a private toilet (showers are in the nearby heated bathing facilities). Or you can treat yourself to a little extra luxury and opt for one of our Ranch Tents complete with the unique Hay! Hay! Bathroom Trailer (including bathtub and shower) next to your tent. Better still why not experience our luxurious Barn Tent with its own private bathroom in the tent. There’s so much luxury – all you have to do is pick which type you prefer!
This modern dairy farm owned by Farmer Huibert and his wife Annet is located on wide, open land, close to the polders and the Haringvliet nature reserve. A lovely quiet spot where you can enjoy rural life and a perfect starting point from which you can explore the island.
The 20 luxury tents are divided over four fields which are adjacent to the large playground where the kids can run around and enjoy themselves or spend a relaxing moment cuddling the animals in the petting zoo. Behind the tents the cows roam free on the grazing pastures and from a distance you can see the stunning tree lined dykes along the Haringvliet nature reserve.
On this location, it is not possible to camp using your own equipment.
Luxury Haytent with toilet in the tent. Spaciously furnished including a cosy living area.
Luxury Ranch Tent with Hay Hay Bath trailer next to the tent. Spaciously furnished with, among other things, a cozy living space.
Luxury Barn tent with air conditioning and bathroom in the tent. Spaciously furnished including a cosy living area.
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!
During your stay Farmer Huibert will show you the ropes with a guided tour of the farm. He 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. This tour will be conducted in Dutch.
Together with Farmer’s Wife Annet your mini-farmers will bake delicious cookies (Kruukplaetjes), according to a local recipe. And of course they get to eat it too!
Every evening you can help Farmer Huibert with taking the cows from the field, milking his cows and feeding the calves. By the end of your holiday you will really be an accomplished farmhand!
Nothing beats getting together at end the day around a campfire. Enjoy the sun setting while the kids roast their marshmallows.
The Shetland ponies Bobo, Rocky and Appel will love it when you cuddle and brushing them. If you like, you can ride a round on the back of one of these sweet ponies.
Within walking distance you will find fishing waters. Are you able to catch the biggest fish!?

Water
Just 15 km from the farm, located between Bruinisse and Oude Tonge, Grevelingendam is a beautiful area of secluded beaches, including a swimming pool, to relax and enjoy yourself. In addition to swimming and playing, you can get to grips with a number of different water sports here. If you fancy a snack and a drink then visit the Lake View Beach pavilion.
Water
Offering both indoor and outdoor swimming facilities, ‘t Zuiderdiep can be enjoyed by guests of all ages, regardless of the weather. This swimming paradise has a subtropical indoor pool with a rapids area, whirlpool, wading pool, water umbrella and a large outdoor pool with slides and children’s area. There is also a lovely space to get a refreshing drink.

Let the kids blow off some more steam at this fun playground including a jungle gym, trampolines, swings, carousels, slides and a sandpit. Your mini-farmers won’t be bored for a second. The older kids can also enjoy table tennis and table soccer.

With both an indoor and outdoor play area there is plenty to see and do here including a soft play area, glow in the dark mini golf, a Lego house and large blocks to build with for the younger kids, together with laser games for the older ones. Outdoors you’ll find a pirate ship, tunnel and fort and 27 meter long obstacle course. 30 minutes from the farm.
Nature
For a fun day out with the kids we highly recommend a trip to Fauna Park Flakkee. This beautifully landscaped park of 25,000m2 is full of fauna and flora. The park plays host to a wide variety of animals ranging from parakeets to birds of prey, owls and several larger animals such as capybaras, deer and even a white kangaroo. There is also a petting zoo with rabbits and goats, not to mention a treasure hunt or a spot of mini golf to keep you occupied.
Nature
Between Haringvliet and Nieuwendijk is the last true south-west island in The Netherlands. Sail with the ferry to the island of Tiengemeten and get blown away by its pristine wilderness, ancient countryside and the many species of birds that breed here together with more than 100 Scottish Highlanders that roam freely. Kids can play around to their hearts content while discovering various parts of the island and for toddlers there is Ukkie Island where they can dig, scramble and splash around.
Culture
Near the farm, in the heart of Sommelsdijk, you will find the historic regional museum of Goeree-Overflakkee. Spread over seven small houses dating back to the seventeenth century you can step back in time and discover all about the local history of the island. Practice for example on the famous reading board in the old schoolroom; discover in the museum attic how craftsmen used to go to work or visit the old village shop. You can also learn the history of local agriculture industry and fisheries on the island together with observing many archeological finds.
On the farm there are also booklets from the museum for sale with a cool car puzzle tour!
Culture
All aboard! Throw an extra scoop of coal on the fire, wait until the driver pulls the steam whistle and off we go! RTM stands for the Rotterdam Tramway Company and this museum takes you on an historical journey from Brouwersdam, passing the Grevelingen lake where the conductors will recount the stories of a time when RTM was the largest tramway in the area. Visit also the RTM museum.
The kids will never be bored at FarmCamps Op Flakkee
