Want to be sure of a place?

Can we come without booking?

You can come without booking, but we may be full or booked for a private event. Check online whether there is still space before you come: click on your date and see the available times. Full = full. Rather buy at the door? That’s possible too, and cash is welcome!

I have an annual pass or a 10-visit card.

Also book your visit in advance online, with the special code from your email. See Tickets & prices for the benefits and conditions of your pass. Passes 

When are the high and low seasons?

High season: 1 April to 1 November. Low season: 1 November to 1 April.

Are there special days?

Every season has its charm, which is why we are open all year round. In the school holidays we are open every day. At Easter, Ascension Day and Whitsun we are open on every public holiday. For special days, including around carnival, see What’s on.

Coming with a group or school? Have a look at family & groups or schools & childcare (in Dutch).

Free parking at the farm

You park for free in our own car park.

Good to know.

Indoors and outdoors

There is a big indoor playground with slides, play corners and a sandpit. For outside, bring clothes that can get dirty and a dry set for afterwards. Our get-dirty guarantee comes free.

Safely fenced grounds

The farm grounds are fenced, so children can’t simply wander off the site.

Accessibility

The grounds are on one level and there is an accessible toilet.

Food & drinks

You order at our café with the digital menu. Bringing your own food and drinks is not allowed.

Allergies or special diets? Talk to us beforehand.

Pets

Pets are not allowed. Only official assistance dogs are welcome, registered in advance and by arrangement.

We’re coming with a group. What should we arrange beforehand?

Agree your date and group size with us in advance. We have separate packages for school trips, after-school care and families & groups; those pages are in Dutch, but you’re welcome to email us in English.

Someone needs extra support. Can we discuss that?

Of course. Let us know beforehand what you need, for example about accessibility, supervision or sensory needs. Then we’ll look together at what suits your visit. Email info@desteenuil.nl.

What about camping guests?

As a camping guest, access to the farm is included in your stay. Practical information about arriving and staying overnight is on our camping page (in Dutch).

What happens on your day?

Feeding with the farmer, pony time or arts and crafts together: the programme changes every day. In What’s on you can see what is planned.
