Balse Bos

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 venue is suitable for business meetings of up to 15 people, such as meetings, team days, brainstorming sessions, training, workshops, and retreats. You always rent the venue exclusively, with indoor space, veranda, terrace, canopy, 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 secluded in greenery and is always private for your group. This makes the place ideal for confidential conversations, strategy sessions, team development, and creative work sessions.

You have 3.5 hectares of land entirely for your own use. This means absolute privacy, freedom, and no distractions from other groups. Inside, you work concentrated at the table. Outside, you 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 works with solar panels and has a calm, natural base. You are away from the office for a while, but you have the facilities you need for a business meeting.

Atmosphere & possibilities

A day at Balse Bos begins in complete tranquility. 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 basis.

Afterwards, you can move the program outside. A meeting on the veranda feels immediately different from a session in the office. On the terrace or under the canopy, 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 a whole with the location. You use the forest, veranda, terrace, and canopy flexibly alongside each other. This allows you to switch between focus, movement, and relaxation.

At Balse Bos, you rent not 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, canopy, 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.
