About us
After a thorough renovation of this thatched-roof farmhouse from 1888, we opened our doors to guests as the first hostel in Giethoorn in 2017. Run by a former backpacker local and her Chinese Indonesian partner, we consider it our mission to share this incredibly picturesque location with travellers from all over the world at reasonable prices.

Accommodation
We have two female and two mixed dorms.
Our dorms feature bunkbeds, free lockers, floor heating, ventilation and garden view.
Each bed is equipped with a reading light and an outlet.
Linens are included, while towels can be rented.

Services and activities
Enjoy our free breakfast, and make yourself at home in our fully equipped kitchen.
Take some time just to relax in our very spacious and lush garden by the canal.

Surroundings
We're located right by the main canal (Dorpsgracht), and while you can enjoy staying in a more tranquil part of Giethoorn, the tourist center is within walking distance. Or just rent a boat from the boat rental (also café/restaurant) right opposite us.

Eight minute walk from bus stop Giethoorn Zuid.
Accessible by car, and parking space available.

Why should you stay with us
There's no place like Giethoorn in The Netherlands, and no place that is accessible, central yet tranquil, and with great value for money like The Black Sheep Hostel in Giethoorn.
