Current status of the surrounding fields: Harvested (parking spot visible)

Hello,

We are offering you a small parking spot (approx. 10 m x 13 m) surrounded by greenery next to our former fire pond (approx. 10 m x 10 m). Conveniently located near the A30, the pond can be reached in about 10 minutes from A30 Exit 2 (Gildehaus / Gronau / Nordhorn). The pond is fenced in and can be accessed through a gate with a combination lock. I will send you the code via message after you contact me. The camper is parked outside the fenced area. The pond is accessible via a paved road (the pavement is no longer in the best condition, as the road has been decommissioned). However, it is still very easy to drive on with a camper or RV. Unfortunately, water or electricity hookups are not available, as the pond is too remote. You can make yourselves comfortable on the small dock by the pond and watch our ducks. The surrounding fields, of course, depend on the season. After the harvest, the area is relatively open, so we recommend the summer months from April/May through September/October. Then the fields are cultivated, and you’ll be surrounded by corn or grain fields.

If the pond is not booked, there are no set rules for arrival and departure. If the pond is occupied and booked by other campers, departure should take place by 2:00 PM.

Nearby is the Waldseiter Hof and the Niermann restaurant, where you can find regional dishes at a fair price. We’re happy to assist with any questions or suggestions for day trips.

We have a public bookcase located at the intersection of Am Görfeld and Brünning Mensch. Anyone looking for a good book to read in the evening—perhaps with a glass of wine by or inside their camper—is sure to find something there. The books are free and can be swapped or kept. There’s also a seating area right next to the bookcase where you can sit and browse for a book in peace. Both children and adults are welcome to use our public swing...why not try to swing as high as you can? :D

There aren’t many rules for our campsite, but please leave the area clean and free of trash. When barbecuing, please be mindful of the fire hazard; disposable grills placed directly on the grass are prohibited. If possible, please have water on hand to extinguish the fire.

For more tips on sights, restaurants, and much more, feel free to message me on WhatsApp and I’ll help as best I can, or email me at https://www.grafschaft-bentheim-tourismus.de/

Unfortunately, our beautiful Bentheim Castle is permanently closed due to renovation work. Guided tours are available around the castle and the castle park; further information is available at the Bad Bentheim Tourist Information Office.

For all campers traveling with children, your kids are welcome to use our soccer field; we also have a public swing set that’s free to use. The soccer field is available at any time and is located very close to the campsite (approx. 100–200 m).

During harvest and planting season, agricultural equipment may be operating in the surrounding fields. Field work usually doesn’t take very long.

Warm regards and have a relaxing time with us in the middle of nowhere.

Tanja, Karsten, and Max


Free cancellation up to 1 day (12:00 p.m.) before arrival.
