Glamping summary
The Canvas Frills Lodge with hot tub is one of the tents found at Hoeve Waterschap in the Netherlands. The farm is a short distance from Lemmer and has a 150-year-old, monumental, Frisian farmhouse. The farm was one of the first to be built in the area after the recovery of the land from peat-digging. This classic stolp (Dutch for bell jar) farm lies in the heart of the Echtenerveenpolder, in an area of outstanding natural beauty called the Veen-weidegebieden.
The area used to be a peat-cutting district and consequently the landscape is criss-crossed with waterways, ditches, and lakes. The farm was built as a co-operative farm for all the cattle and sheep that graze amongst the surrounding dykes. Visitors will never be far from the water, and 150 yards from the farm is the Pier Christiaanvaart waterway that is connected to the beautiful Frisian lakes. A meadow separates the farm from the waterways, so adventurous children can still play safely.
