Dome tent by the water

If you love camping in nature but don’t want to compromise on comfort, this glamping dome at a lovely glamping park in the province of Drenthe is the perfect solution. From this dome, you’ll have a stunning view of the water and enjoy plenty of space and privacy. Here, you can truly make the most of nature, the tranquility, and, of course, each other’s company.

The Dome
Located on the shores of a lovely little lake, this dome offers a stunning view of the water. The accommodation is also surrounded by woods, so you’ll truly feel like you’re in the heart of nature. The dome is spacious and features a mix of new and vintage furniture, including two single futons, rocking loungers, remote-controlled heating, a mini-fridge, a toaster, and everything you need for an unforgettable stay in nature. Prepare a delicious meal in your own outdoor kitchen. There’s also an outdoor fire pit so you can spend hours at night gazing at the fire or the stars.

For restroom facilities, you can visit one of the four restroom locations, where you’ll find, among other things, a wonderfully warm shower.

There is no Wi-Fi at the accommodation. However, there is one spot on the estate where Wi-Fi is available. You can park your car at the entrance to the grounds in the parking lot.

The Campground
This is a 20-hectare estate with a natural campground. The owners strive to preserve the forest in a responsible manner, with great respect and love for nature. The property features a glacially formed lake covering more than 1.5 hectares. There are no pike in the lake, so you can swim there safely. In the past, peat was extracted from the lake to heat the buildings of the municipality of Rolde. Fortunately, the deeper layer of loam remains intact. In and around the water, you’ll find water lilies and cattails among the flora, and salamanders, frogs, newts, and fish among the fauna. Fishing is permitted here. During your stay, you can enjoy a delicious breakfast in the morning with fresh rolls and spreads (a vegan breakfast is also available). There’s also a sauna on the grounds with a view of the lake; you can book this on-site with the rental owner. The beautiful surroundings make for lovely bike rides.

The Surroundings
The campground is located in the least densely populated part of the Netherlands: the triangle between Rolde, Borger, and Gieten. It’s an incredibly beautiful, wooded area with many lakes suitable for swimming, such as the Nije Hemelriek, 4.5 kilometers away near Gasselte. Drentsche Aa National Park is also nearby, as is Assen, the capital of the province of Drenthe. The accommodation is situated in the middle of the Hondsrug, a ridge that stretches from Emmen to the city of Groningen. The Hondsrug, together with part of the surrounding area, forms the only Geopark in the Netherlands. The area consists of coniferous and deciduous forests, small ponds, meadows, picturesque villages, streams, burial mounds, shifting sands, impressive beech avenues, heathlands, and farmlands, and is ideal for nature lovers who appreciate peace and open spaces.
