🏡 Welcome to Klein Knorrestein – Bed & Wellness in nature
Relax. Reset. Reconnect.
Unplug in one of our cozy eco tiny houses with private sauna, hot tub, and tandem bike – all included in your stay! Hidden in the green heart of Almere Oosterwold, just 30–45 minutes from Amsterdam, Utrecht and Amersfoort, Klein Knorrestein offers a unique retreat for nature lovers, slow travellers, and animal friends. 🐖
Your Hosts: Joyce and her lovely teenager son Boet.
"Together we live in this little paradise filled with life, love, and rescued animals: pigs, goats, chickens, two dogs and a cat. Since 2020, we’ve created a warm and eco-friendly space in our large organic garden where guests can enjoy a soulful getaway. "
🌿 What to Expect
Not a hotel. Not a holiday park. Not a campsite. Just two charming guesthouses – a Wikkelhuis and an Iglucraft – each with their own sauna and hot tub, set in a flower-filled organic garden. We're nearby in our own sustainable home, so you’ll feel both private and personally welcomed.

My background as a journalist and press officer for nature and animal NGOs like Stichting AAP, Natuurmonumenten and the Royal Dutch Guide Dog Foundation inspired this green, caring project. 📍 Our Location: Almere Oosterwold We are based in Oosterwold, an experimental, eco-conscious urban farm district filled with straw houses, domes, villas, and tiny homes. It’s full of wild ideas and big gardens – and we were among the very first pioneers here!
