Dinserhof Glamping

The Canvas Frills Lodge tent at Dinserhof farm is one of the tents found at this beautifully tranquil spot just 3 miles from the Baltic Coast. The farm is a smallholding run by the Dinse family who came here 20 years ago to live their dream of a self-sufficient lifestyle.

Looking out from your tent you have a lovely view over a picturesque pond and rolling fields with grazing Scottish Highlanders against a backdrop of a 19th century Schloss. There is a wide variety of animals and guests are can help to feed and groom them. In the adjacent field, there are horses that share the charming original stables with the rare breed pigs. Unfortunately, due to the variety of farm animals, pets are not allowed.

Food is grown in the extensive vegetable garden behind the tents, and there are free-range chickens and ducks. Guests can harvest the vegetables seasonally and there is a small honesty shop where guests can buy meat home grown on the farm and other local produce. Other items can also be ordered or purchased at the local shops.

Autumn is the mating season and the busiest time of the year; 5 months after which, the lambs are born. There is always some way in which guests can join in with the farmyard activities including helping to bottle-feed the lambs. Whatever the season, visitors on their family holidays meet the animals in the meadows and find out about sheep that are rarely seen these days.

The Canvas Frills Lodge has a double bed, a bunk bed, and a single bed, sleeping a maximum of six guests. There is an en-suite bathroom with shower and basin, a flushing toilet, deck chairs, an outdoor cooker, an extended canopy for a covered veranda, and cold running water. The lodge comes with a starter pack made up of wood for heating and cooking, starter pack candles, and lamp oil. Kitchen linen is provided and there is ample parking space. Any stay includes a tour of this working farm.

Close to the farm, guests can hire sailing boats and bikes for perfect day trips. With the beaches of Rügen and Zingst, and National Park Rügen, just half an hour away and the historic centre of Stralsund and National Park Boddenlandschaft on your doorstep (both 3 miles), the farm offers the ideal mix between tranquil countryside and attractive daytrips.
