The space
During your stay you overnight in a special Grondulow, a kind of earth house. A unique place in the meadow between grazing cows.

It's a real farm experience. You can help milking and feeding cows, enjoy your time with the tractor on the field, play with animals, gardening and survival across the farm.

Every Grondulow (Earthhouse) has his own livingroom with a view on the grazing cows.
If you stay in a 5-persons house you'll have 2 sleepingrooms, a private toilet and 1 bathroom with bath.
If you stay in a 6-persons house you'll have 3 sleepingrooms, a private toilet and 1 bathroom with bath.
If you stay in a 8-persons house you'll have 3 sleepingrooms, a private toilet and 2 bathrooms with bath.
If you stay in a 12-persons house you'll have 6 sleepingrooms, 2 private toilets and 2 bathrooms with bath.

You can find Koe in de Kost in a little village called Heeten. It has his own bakery, supermarket and other basic facilities. You will love this place because it's full of nature; it's nearby National Parc Sallandse Heuvelrug. And culture; less than 20km from historical cities like Deventer and Zwolle. Travelingtime from Heeten - Amsterdam is 1h20m.

There's a lot of space inside and around the Grondulow. See also pictures!

My work: Cow in de Kost
Lives in Heeten, Netherlands
My name is Loes Dijkhuis-Alferink and I am co-owner of Koe in de Kost, which are 6 holiday houses (earth houses) on a real farm. Graduated in fashion design and psychology, but got back to my roots: a farm in a local village. I love nature and would like to give everyone the possibility to enjoy a unique farm experience.
