General information

De Zwerver is the oldest residential and studio ship in the Netherlands. The Zwerver was built in 1900 at shipyard De Vlijt in Oude Wetering. Artist, architect and explorer Wijnand Otto Jan Nieuwenkamp designed it as a houseboat but also used it as a mobile studio and exhibition space. The ship has been fully restored, equipped with all modern conveniences and is now used as accommodation for both overnight stays and meetings.

    Cozy, quaintly furnished with everything you need. Defective light bulbs were easily replaced. Unfortunately the oven did not work, which could not be repaired during our stay. Clean bed linen, towels, well-kept bathroom.

    Gemütlich, urig eingerichtet mit allem was man braucht. Defekte Leuchtmittel wurden unkompliziert getauscht. Leider ging der Backofen nicht, was auch nicht im Laufe unseres Aufenthaltes repariert werden konnte. Saubere Bettwäsche, Handtücher, gepflegtes Badezimmer.
