We are Barbara and Johan Timmermans. At the beginning of 2000 we decided to move from the West to Drenthe and found a farm in a beautiful location on the outskirts of Diever. We rented out the front house of the farm and an apartment in the former wagon shed. In the past winter, two spacious apartments have been realized in the former walking stable. We ourselves have (almost) stopped working and are happy to welcome our guests to our yard and do everything we can to make them happy

I liked it. Only the windows don't close properly and the couch didn't sit very well.

We enjoyed our stay immensely. Very complete house with friendly host/hostess. Beautiful surroundings where we could enjoy cycling. We were in Oldendiever for the third time, definitely worth repeating!
