Without discussing with us beforehand whether we wanted this, we were given a guest/bed couch in the day care room. Instead of the booked room with solid bed. We slept in the same room as the kitchen, but we were not allowed to use anything. No tea or coffee, no knife or plate. I did not find it welcoming here. With the exception of the rollaway bed and bedding, the room was not clean. For campers it might be ok here, but booking through airbnb.... I will never go here again.

Zonder van te voren met ons te overleggen of we dit wilden, kregen we een logeer/ bedbank in de dagbestedingsruimte. In plaats van de geboekte kamer met degelijk bed. We sliepen in dezelfde ruimte als de keuken, maar we mochten niets gebruiken. Geen thee of koffie, geen mes of bordje. Ik vond het hier niet gastvrij. Met uitzondering van het opklapbed en het beddengoed was de ruimte niet schoon. Voor kampeerders is het hier misschien wel o.k. Maar via airbnb boeken... ik ga nooit weer hier heen.

Nice field with spacious spots, lots of go-karts etc. for the kids, scrambling and jumping in the playground and gathering acorns for the pigs in the woods. Many beautiful cycling routes nearby.

Mooi veld met ruime plekken, veel skelters e.d. voor de kinderen, klauteren en springen in de speeltuin en sprokkelen naar eikels voor de varkens in het bos. Veel mooie fiets routes in de buurt.

Well, a family reunion with about 55 people at this location. Super day had at the Geele Bosch. Part of the stable and the outdoor area in front of it could be reserved for our party. Food & drinks on our own , of course after consultation with the owner of the Geele Bosch. There are many possibilities. Fortunately the weather was super nice, but in case of rain we could also go into the stables if necessary. For small and "big" children there are many go-karts, carts and play equipment. Horseback riding is also a possibility, something for everyone! Price/quality is excellent. Recommended, even for small camping, yes!

Tja, een familiereünie met zo'n 55 personen op deze locatie. Superdag gehad op de Geele Bosch. Een gedeelte van de stal en de buitenruimte ervoor kon voor ons feest gereserveerd worden. Eten& drinken in eigen beheer , natuurlijk na overleg met de eigenaar van de Geele Bosch. Er zijn vele mogelijkheden. Gelukkig was het supermooi weer, maar bij regen konden we eventueel ook in de stallen. Voor de kleine en 'grote' kinderen zijn er vele skelters, karretjes en speeltoestellen. Ook paardrijden behoort tot de mogelijkheden, voor elkaar wils! Prijs/ kwaliteit is dik in orde. Aanrader, ook voor de kleine camping, Jazeker!

Spent an afternoon. Nice for children also due to playground and farm. Good prices and good service. In small town, in fact a bit outside the village. I think they don't have rooms to stay. Probably have tents or area for camping.
