Orchard meadow at the mill tower (single pitch, sauna)

Dear campers, from April - September please book at least 2 nights at the weekend - thank you!

Welcome to our small cottage in Drensteinfurt!

You can camp here with up to 8 people, children & dogs are very welcome.

You can enjoy our garden to yourselves (single pitch). You have a new, large, private bathroom with shower 🚿 . And if you like, you can sweat in our barrel sauna.

For your children (if you have children) there is a swing and a small sandpit with toys.

If you feel like it, you can sit by the fire bowl in the evening.

You can camp under fruit trees 🌳 🍎 or on our meadow with a view of our mill tower.

The mill tower is always a highlight. It was built at the end of 1800 and lost its wings early on due to a fire. The mill was then powered by a combined heat and power plant until it ceased operation. Today, the tower is a monument and is home to kestrels, owls and ravens.

It is idyllic here: there is a meadow orchard, a vegetable garden, our two goats 🐐 🐐 Azrael and Lavender and Katinka the cat. In spring/summer, kestrels breed in the mill tower and raise their young. You can watch them do this. At night, you can often hear the call of our owls. There are also lots of hares and pheasants here, and every now and then, albeit rarely, you will see a deer.

The scent of fresh hay accompanies you in summer.

Depending on the season, you can pick fruit from our trees and bushes: Apples, pears, cherries, plums, blackberries, raspberries, gooseberries, currants ...

The indicated price refers to two persons including 4 KwH electricity/night. From the 3rd person each adult from 16 years costs 10 Euro and each child from 4 years 7 Euro/night (payable on site)

🐕🐈 Pets are welcome and do not cost anything. You are welcome to bring more than one pet. Under the points "Dogs welcome" and "Cats welcome" you will find our agreements on bringing animals. You accept these agreements with your booking.

Activities/environment:

I have put together a small booklet with things to see and do to inspire you. I will send it to you as a PDF after booking. You can get the information in printed form here on site.

🔅There are several beautiful cycling and hiking routes along our mill - either directly into the industrial culture or into the nature of the Münsterland. The start of the Werseradweg cycle path is very close by. You can also join the 100 Castles Route from here.

🔅You can get to Münster, Dortmund and Hamm quickly by car or train or visit small, typical Münsterland towns. In my opinion, Münster in particular is worth a day trip. And Holland is not far away either. And of course the Ruhr region with its industrial culture.

🔅If you're looking for day trip destinations for your children, here are a few tips: Münster has a wonderful all-weather zoo, a planetarium, the mill museum and the Aasee lake, where you can go pedal boating. In Hamm there is the Maxipark.

🔅Swimming pool, great sauna, indoor pool 10 km away - beautiful cycle path

🔅Shopping facilities (groceries) 1 km away. Shopping streets in Drensteinfurt, Ahlen and Hamm 10 km away (beautiful cycle paths there).

🔅You will find numerous opportunities for regional and Mediterranean food in Ahlen, Münster and Hamm.

🔅Swimming and hiking lakes can also be found in the surrounding area (20-35 km).

🔅Forests can be reached by bike.

🔅Canoe and kayak trips on the Werde or Lippe rivers are available in the surrounding area (35 km).

We look forward to your visit! There are two things here: the tranquillity of country life on the one hand, and the sounds of country life on the other.

Our mill is not located in the real "hinterland" without any sounds of civilization. However, most of the street noises are filtered out by the farm buildings and the cultivated fields (if they are cultivated) that lie between "your" garden and the street.
