About us

Welcome to our special place. Our experts, hostesses, heart guardians, coaches and animal enthusiasts make every visit an unforgettable experience.

Peace, relaxation, and passion

These are the guiding principles of Magnolia Hoeve. The tranquility that the location exudes, the relaxation you feel when you're there, and the passion for the animals that roam here.

Our mission is to help people and animals flourish and enjoy themselves, with peace and finding their own balance at the heart of everything.

Our story

Sometimes you arrive at a place and know: this is right. That happened to us in May 2017, when this special location came our way. The energy, the space, the silence—it immediately felt like coming home. Ideas that we previously only dreamed about started to take shape here on their own. Everything fit perfectly with this place: the nature, the horses and the feeling of freedom that you immediately experience here. Our goal was clear from the start: to let others feel and experience what we experience here every day.

In the spring of 2021, we opened the doors of Magnolia Hoeve for our first equestrian activities in North Brabant. One of the first was yoga on and next to horseback – a unique experience in which peace, balance and connection come together. We now offer several activities for horse lovers of all levels, from relaxing outdoor rides to inspiring workshops.

Magnolia Hoeve is located on the edge of the Sint Anthonis State Forests, a beautiful nature reserve spanning over 825 hectares. Here you will find forests, heathlands and sandy paths where hikers, cyclists, mountain bikers, horse riders and drivers can fully enjoy themselves. With routes ranging from 2 to 26 kilometers, it's a perfect destination for anyone looking to experience nature in the State Forests.

On our own grounds you will find more than 2 hectares of pasture, a spacious indoor arena of 20 x 40 meters, a lunge circle of 18 meters and 17 stables. Part of our stables has access to a paddock, so our horses can spend a lot of time outside. Horse welfare is our top priority: space, exercise and social contact ensure healthy and happy horses – and you'll feel that immediately when you're here.

In addition to our activities, you can also stay overnight at our glamping site, where you can watch the horses walk past your window from your unique accommodation. This way, you combine relaxation in nature with the special presence of these beautiful animals.

Our Philosophy

Horses don't judge. They don't discriminate based on appearance or background and don't look at what others think of you. As herd animals, they communicate naturally through body language and behavior. They live completely in the here and now – and that is how they approach people. Their reactions are pure, instinctive, and always honest.

Clear leadership is important in a herd, and horses seek the same from people. They mirror your behavior and let you immediately feel how you communicate. During exercises on and off the horse, you'll discover what works, what can be improved, and which new approaches are effective. Everything you learn here can be directly applied to your daily life.

By interacting with or riding horses, you become aware of your own attitude, feelings and behaviour. You notice the influence this has on the movement and reaction of the horse. Horses always respond from their instincts and require clarity in your way of communicating. They offer relaxation and motivation to grow and break patterns – something that often also changes your view of the outside world.

Working with horses is accessible and accessible to everyone. Each participant has their own goals and interests, making the experience always personal. But what everyone has in common is that working with our horses gives pleasure, peace, relaxation and new energy. Our horses – and the atmosphere at Magnolia Hoeve – create a sense of safety, appreciation, and connection.

Overnight Stay at the Glamping Site

Spend the night surrounded by nature, far from the hustle and bustle. Magnolia Hoeve is no ordinary campsite – it's a special experience. Whether you choose a charming covered wagon where the warm evening sun shines in, a wooden lodge with a view over our meadows, or a cozy yurt where you can see the stars twinkling from your bed: each accommodation has its own character. They all share one thing: they invite you to relax, enjoy, and truly unwind.

Magnolia Hoeve isn't a destination in itself. It's an experience. A place where you can let go, recharge and create precious memories.
