Besides this, you can try clogs on yourself and experience what it is like to walk in them. You can also taste our home-made farmhouse cheeses, fruit wine and the typical Dutch biscuits.

Simonehoeve

The Simonehoeve is an original cheese farm and wooden shoe factory. We invite you to see how we make cheese and how Dutch clogs are cut. Of course you can try and pick clogs in our shop and taste and buy cheese. You can always do this without booking any other activities with us. We are open 365 days of the year. Great fun for young and old. And ... you will learn something from it too.
