Seminars and company events
Bij Aaltje aan de Linie is a working cattle farm in Woudenberg, in the middle of the Netherlands, that hosts business meetings, training days, strategy days and team events for groups of up to 40 people. Everything is aimed at companies and organizations. The farm is open Monday to Friday and closed on weekends.
Two meeting rooms and an outdoor brainstorm space are available. You can book a single room, or take the whole site exclusively so that no other group is present and your lunch or drinks happen in a separate space. Exclusive hire is stated for meetings, strategy days and trainings of up to 40 people.
Rooms and capacities
Room IJsvogel is the largest room and works as the plenary space. It has daylight and a panoramic window. From November to April the window looks onto the Hereford cattle in the barn, and in summer onto the Grebbelinie landscape. The room holds 20 people in a U-shape, 24 in a square, 26 in table groups with a view of the screen, and 40 in theatre style. Equipment includes Wi-Fi, a projector and screen, a flip chart, air conditioning, a Jura coffee machine for self-service, and an accessible toilet.
Room Boerenzwaluw is smaller and suits break-out groups, quiet work, calls or an online meeting. It has Wi-Fi, a projector and screen, a flip chart, and a large terrace with a lawn and a jeu de boules court.
The Buiten Brainstorm Locatie is a creative space with a brown paper wall and a large chalkboard. It is used for brainstorms and for a break between sessions.
Catering
Coffee and tea are made with fresh herbs, and the farm serves a regional lunch. Package formulas are offered for meetings, lunches and drinks. For longer days the farm also proposes a barbecue, a regional buffet, a tagine stew, a burger from its own Hereford beef, a tapas menu and a walking dinner. Ingredients come as much as possible from local farmers or from the farm itself.
Team activities
Meetings can be combined with activities on site. Short break formats include archery, building with bamboo, tractor driving and a hike. Longer team-building formats cover sheep herding, construction challenges and cooking workshops. In the lunch break, groups can walk in the surroundings or play jeu de boules.
Getting there
The farm is at Zegheweg 49 in Woudenberg, about 10 minutes by car from the A12 and the A28. Parking is free on site and a charging point is available. The site is rural: a country lane, pastures and cattle. Organizers who need a train connection should ask the farm for the best way to reach it from the nearest station.
