The Turret of Trips - The Water Tower of Groningen

Enjoy silence, space and nature.

Near the city of Groningen (Central Groningen) stands Het Torentje van Trips. Here you can see the sun rise and see, with a fantastic view over the surrounding green landscape.

The Turret of Trips is an old water mill that we have converted into luxury heritage accommodation. There is a small lake with a beach within walking distance and there are several dining options in the area. The interior is luxurious and modern while retaining the characteristic elements. The atmosphere is warm and friendly.

The Torentje van Trips is suitable for couples, families (with children) and groups of up to 8 people.

The water tower is completely detached and is fully rented. Around the tower is a spacious lawn with several terraces and plenty of private parking spaces. There are no other recreational homes in the vicinity.

Bed linen and towels are always included. The beds are made upon arrival.

No pets are allowed in Het Torentje van Trips.
