About the venue

At Balse Bos, you organize a meeting, team day, or retreat in complete privacy. You use the entire location exclusively, including 3.5 hectares of natural meadows and forest.

Balse Bos is an off-grid meeting location in Aalten, in the Achterhoek. The location is suitable for business meetings of up to 15 people, such as meetings, team days, brainstorming sessions, training sessions, workshops, and retreats. You always rent the location exclusively, with indoor space, a veranda, terrace, roofed area, outdoor kitchen, outdoor toilets, private parking spaces, and 3.5 hectares of private nature area.

Why Balse Bos Works for Business Meetings

Balse Bos is suitable for teams seeking peace, focus, and space. The location is nestled in greenery and is always private for your group. This makes the place strong for confidential conversations, strategy sessions, team development, and creative work sessions.

You have 3.5 hectares of land completely for your own use. This means absolute privacy, freedom, and no distractions from other groups. Inside, you work concentrated at the table. Outside, you can move a session to the veranda, terrace, or forest. This naturally creates a different energy in the program.

The off-grid setting enhances that feeling. Balse Bos uses solar panels and has a calm, natural foundation. You are a bit away from the office, but you have the facilities you need for a business meeting.

Atmosphere & Options

A day at Balse Bos starts in complete peace. You arrive at a secluded area, without other groups around you. Inside, everything is ready for a meeting, training, or brainstorming session. The wood stove provides warmth and atmosphere, while wifi, a TV screen, and flip chart ensure a practical foundation.

Afterwards, you can move the program outside. A meeting on the veranda feels different than a session in an office. On the terrace or under the roof, there is space for a break, lunch, or informal discussion. In the forest, you can work with walking conversations, reflection tasks, or short break-outs.

The outdoor space forms one whole with the location. You use the forest, veranda, terrace, and roofed area flexibly side by side. This way, you can switch between focus, movement, and relaxation.

Practical & Transparent

Balse Bos is designed for small business groups that want to work undisturbed. The location rental includes the main facilities for a complete meeting.

Included in the location rental:

- Unlimited coffee, tea, and water
- Wifi, TV screen with HDMI, and flip chart

Catering can be optionally booked. Think of breakfast, lunch, drinks, dinner, or BBQ via local caterers. This allows you to easily extend the day from a short work session to a complete team day.

Trust through Exclusivity and Peace

At Balse Bos, you do not rent a shared meeting room, but a complete location. Your group has the area to themselves. This provides peace and freedom during confidential conversations.

The combination of indoor space, veranda, terrace, roofed area, outdoor kitchen, and forest makes the location flexible. You can calmly build up a business session and alternate with outdoor moments. This helps teams to break away from the daily work environment and return with new insights.

Machtig mooie ontmoetingsplek in natuurlijke omgeving

Pascal
Average rating of 8.9 out of 10

Machtig mooie plek voor vergaderen in de natuur, ongestoord samen brainstormen en afspraken maken. alle voorzieningen zijn aanwezig. Gastvrouwen Geertje en Loes doen uiterste best om het zo fijn mogelijk te maken. met een overheerlijke lunch en diner van Walter kookt was deze dag top! Tip: begin deze dag met een prachtige wandeling door de bossen en landerijen rondom Balse Bos. Aanrader deze inspirerende locatie!
