What a great choice!
Endless go-karting around the barn
This is what makes this farm so much fun!
Oranjepolder is situated right in the middle of the gorgeous Veerse Meer lake and the town of Middelburg, on the Zeeuwse Walcheren “Island.” This area of land which is named the Oranjepolder (polder means reclaimed land) was reclaimed in 1618. It is within this area of reclaimed land that you will find the national treasure and monument of Oranjepolder farm, which is now home to farmer Sentine and her husband Gavin. This listed farm was formerly a royal estate belonging to the House of Orange no less!
At Oranjepolder you can choose between 2 types of luxurious tents. There are 4 luxury Safari tents with their own private toilet. The showers are located in the former pigsty which has been transformed into a modern shower block. It is also possible to rent private sanitary facilities. There are also 4 luxurious Barn tents with private toilet, bath and wait for it…….., a dishwasher in the fully kitted out kitchen. It’s going to be hard to choose!
This FarmCamps farm is situated on a quiet road surrounded by fields. Veerse Meer lake is nearby: a great location for swimming and watersports. With its shallow shore it is particularly suitable to families with children.
The farmyard houses the family’s residential building and a huge barn. To the rear and adjacent to the monumental barn are 4 fields. The quiet field at the rear is where you will find the 8 luxurious Safari and Barn tents which look out onto wide panoramic views of arable farmland.
The fields behind the barn are reserved for private camping emplacements. This is also where you find the playground so the children are never far away and always safely in sight.

Farmers’ Wife Sentine tells you all about the crops that are grown and about the journey from the grain to your plate. You can grain your own wheat, in order to make your own ‘Zeeuwse Bolussen’, which you obviously get to eat after!
Find hidden treasures out in the field under the guidance of Gavin the Archaeologist. You get to use a real metal detector as with the naked eye you cannot see what’s hidden beneath…
Take a ride with Sentine on the tractor. She regularly takes the open trailer out for a spin. The whole tour takes about 45 minutes, it’s great fun and full of excitement for the kids. What’s more, you get to see more of the lovely polder fields too.
Every day the rabbits, pigs, goats and chickens need feeding and farmer Sentine can most certainly do with you helping out!
Nothing beats ending a busy day on the farm with a cosy campfire. Enjoy the sunset and a take time to have a relaxed chat with your friends, family or the other guests whilst the kids entertain themselves toasting marshmallows on the fire. Sentine will build the fire with the children and will bring the marshmallows. You can also rent a fire pit to use next to your own tent.
There are a few fields behind the large barn on the farmyard. The furthest field is the playing field with goals for football. A great place to play together with your (new) friends or with your parents.
