Special B&B in Overijssel
Where every overnight stay tells a story
Every bed and breakfast in Overijssel has its own character. From an old city house in Zwolle to a rural farm near Dalfsen: nowhere else will you find so much variation within one province. You notice it immediately upon arrival - the smell of freshly baked bread, a chat with the host or hostess, and a room where care and style come together.
In Twente you will find small-scale B&Bs where life is still allowed to be slow. Think of a farmhouse among the rolling fields, overlooking meadows and forests. Near Ootmarsum, you'll even find B&Bs that feel like works of art in themselves: furnished with local craft, vintage details and plenty of attention to atmosphere.
For those who prefer urban charm, a bed and breakfast in Zwolle or an apartment in the center of Deventer is ideal. Here you will sleep amidst the old facades and walk straight to cozy markets, coffee shops and boutiques. And for the adventurous traveler? In Overijssel you can literally sleep off the beaten track, for example in an oriental yurt among the trees or in a farmyard where silence still really is silence. Such places give spending the night an extra layer of meaning. If you want even more inspiration for unique places to stay, be sure to check out our page on unusual places to stay in Overijssel.
