Eco-Camping De Helleborus, Yurt, Bell & Safari Tent, Pipo, Caravans, Dorms And Units - A unique farm-style campsite with diverse accommodations and eco-friendly amenities

Eco-Camping De Helleborus offers 12 distinct accommodations, including bell tents, safari tents, caravans, a Mongolian yurt, and dormitory-style units. The yurt, Mimosa, features hand-painted Mongolian motifs, a Norwegian wood stove, and a private terrace with a fireplace overlooking the pond. Guests can cook in the shared outdoor kitchen, known as The Saloon, or opt for breakfast (€9-€16) and dinner (€17-€25) served on-site. Recreational amenities include a wood-fired hot tub (€50 for 3 hours), compost toilets, and circular showers with meadow views. The campsite is 8 km from Groningen's city center and 20 km from Groningen Eelde Airport. Bike rentals (€12/day) provide access to nearby landmarks like Martinitoren and Hortus Botanicus Haren.

Pros

The yurt Mimosa includes a private terrace with a fireplace and views of the pond and forest.

Breakfast and dinner are prepared fresh daily, with options for dietary preferences.

Bike rentals and proximity to Groningen make exploring the area convenient.

Eco-friendly features include compost toilets and solar-heated showers.

Quiet hours (23:00-07:00) ensure a peaceful stay.

Cons

Shared sanitary facilities may not suit all guests.

No on-site grocery stores; the nearest supermarkets are in Groningen or Harkstede.

“The charm lies in its commitment to eco-friendly practices, with accommodation ranging from yurts to safari tents, each possessing its own artistic flair, set within a peaceful, wooded area near Groningen; expect to find comfy beds and remarkably attentive staff. What stands out is the superb atmosphere, communal outdoor kitchen, and campfire, creating a welcoming stay.”
