Description
We are Martijn and Naduah and from January 2021 we have taken over a farm with many different animals (petting zoo) and nature.
It is a place that is mainly aimed at the entertainment of the children and non-profit.
We love to travel and have seen a lot of the world (Europe, Asia, Afrika, South-America, USA). With our little son (2,5 years old) we were still on the road to South-America, there are no limits :). Maybe that's why we loved to start this project: the main reason was to share our farm with other people and let them feel the power of the nature and animals. After a long search we found this campsite with a lot of potential.. It was directly a yes for us! Can you help us to make this place even more beautiful and share the travel experience with us?
