Welcome! Thank you for using (parts of) the Adventure House. With 82 beds, 2 living rooms, each with its own fireplace, a professional kitchen and various workshop rooms, a good place for the start of your Adventure in Nature. The Adventure House was completed in 2021 thanks to many gifts and donations. The building is equipped to accommodate and entertain 2 groups at the same time. It would be great if you could use this building in the right way with us.

Responsibility

If you come with a group, we ask for a contact person from the group who is our point of contact for the entire stay. This person ensures the good atmosphere during the stay and ensures that the rules of the game, as described in this document, are respected.

  • If our guidelines are not followed by the group or by a group individual, a (written) warning will be issued. If it turns out that the guideline is violated again after a warning, the employees of Scoutinglandgoed Zeewolde have the right to remove both groups and individuals from the sites. When this happens, the right to refund the monies paid expires.
  • Scouting Estate Zeewolde is not liable in the event of loss or theft of property.
  • You stay with us at your own risk.
  • Pets are not allowed on the entire Scouting estate.

Sound

  • Your activities, both indoors and outdoors, should not cause any inconvenience to other users.
  • Between 01:00 and 07:00 there is a prescribed night’s sleep. This means that no loud noises may be heard, both in the Adventure House itself and in the outdoor areas and public places.

Fire safety

  • In some locations, special campfire sites have been set up for making campfires. For fire safety reasons, campfires are only allowed in these places. Do not stack the wood higher than knee height and keep bucket/fire extinguisher handy. Our locations are close to nature reserves. As a result, the fire brigade and the Forestry Commission are extra alert when it comes to open fires. If they issue a negative open fire advice, it is binding. This applies to both campfires and barbecues.

Broom-clean means that the Adventure House is delivered neat and empty. Broadly speaking, this means that:

  • All rented items are together, personal belongings have been removed.
  • The bedrooms, living rooms and workshop rooms have been swept and/or vacuumed,
  • The fireplaces have been emptied and the heating residues have been deposited in the appropriate waste container.
  • The kitchen and all appliances and workbenches and sanitary facilities are free of grease, dirt and limescale.
  • In addition, of course, all waste has been collected correctly and emptied into the right container.
  • Upon departure, the Adventure House was put back in the set-up as it was on arrival.
  • Please note! Perhaps the Adventure House is not immediately re-rented after your departure; It is wise that no food is left behind. Keep your food leftover, divide it among your own group or share it with, for example, a food bank.
