Reviews
Gertie De Neve from Assenede,
De perfecte vakantie als je op zoek bent naar rust, een schitterende safaritent, eigen sanitair, prachtige regio met erg lekkere producten, maar bovenal: Leida en Leen zijn erg fijne mensen, die je jouw rust gunnen, fijne tips en tricks bieden als je dat wenst en erg erg erg, ja dus erg lekker kunnen koken en jou heerlijk in de watten zullen leggen in hun resto!!!
Nanda, Rein, Izabella & hond Koko from Den Haag,
Heerlijk plekje! Fijne gastheren die ook nog eens heel goed koken tegen schappelijke prijzen. De kleinschalige opzet biedt zowel privacy en contact als daar behoefte aan is. Voldoende ruimte in onze safaritent met prima bedden. We waren ook erg blij dat onze hond zo welkom was. Je loopt vanuit de tent direct het bos in, hoort ‘s nachts de uilen roepen en we hadden zelfs een keer een hert naast de tent. Het dorpje is op 20 minuten loopafstand. Heel erg bedankt Leida & Leen
Jesse, Jooske & Suze from Deventer,
De vakantie bij Leen en Leida was fantastisch! We sliepen een week in de Mason tent en het ontbrak ons aan niets.
De twee eigenaren zijn ontzettend vriendelijk, professioneel en gastvrij. Een plek waar je tot rust komt, in de watten wordt gelegd (oa op culinair gebied) en waar we erg graag weer naar terug komen in de toekomst!
Onze dochter van 1,5 jaar sliep er als een roos, de tenten bieden optimale schaduw in de ochtend waardoor wij, ondanks de hitte, heerlijk uit konden slapen. Wat een genot!
We raden iedereen aan hierheen te gaan, voor de plek, de gastvrijheid, de gastronomische verwennerij en de omgeving waar veel te doen is voor jong en oud.
Een topweek!Groeten,
Jooske, Suze en Jesse
