What an incredibly beautiful spot in the Netherlands. We stayed with the whole family in the bell tents on the field. The tents are spacious, clean, and have a comfortable bed. The restroom and shower are in a unit (cleaned daily) a short distance away. The hostess, Crista, and her husband, Ger, are very caring and really go out of their way to make sure you have a great time. Hats off to them! It’s amazing how they do this with so much enthusiasm. One more tip: rent a small boat and sail past the most beautiful spots!!!

We absolutely loved our stay at Smûk! We were a group of 12 friends, and everything was taken care of down to the last detail. The glamping tents we stayed in were fully equipped with all the amenities. We also had a wonderful pizza night, went out on the small boats, enjoyed a fantastic breakfast, and rode our bikes into the village. We’ll definitely be back!

Wij hebben ontzettend genoten van ons verblijf bij Smûk! We waren met een vriendengroep met 12 personen en alles was tot in de puntjes verzorgd. De glamping tenten waar wij verbleven, waren van alle gemakken voorzien. Daarnaast hebben we een heerlijke pizza-avond gehad, hebben we gevaren met de sloepjes, genoten van een topontbijt en zijn we het dorp in gegaan met de fietsen. Zeker voor herhaling vatbaar!
