Farm 't Hof Janse
The farm house is the most recent addition to the portfolio of Villa Magnolia. The farm was built in the 1860’s by the Janse family and was the centre of their home and business. The farm was run as a family business until the land and the farm were acquired by Villa Magnolia in 2012. The farm house was renovated together with London based HBA/Hirsch Bedner Associates into a warm and modern rural escape. All accommodations at the farm offer a luxury feeling, a sense of place, and are in our opinion a true home away from home.
All rooms are decorated with reproductions of the “The Hague School” (De Haagse School) group of painters. This informal collective was most active between 1860 and 1890. Their works can be seen as a reaction against the idealized reality of the romantic painters. Instead, the members of the Hague School set out to paint that what they could observe, that what was reality.
Not only do we love the intense image but the subject matter is often the sea, the ally and enemy of the province of Zeeland. The colours of the early works are in keeping with the colours of the farm and that era, complementing the architecture of the building and transporting us back to the 19th century. Villa Magnolia can commission reproductions of the works of The Hague School, an agreement made directly with the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
We like to tell stories through the products we use and love to share them with you. The tiles used in the bathrooms at the Farm House are made by Mosa, one of the oldest tile-firms in the Netherlands, they have been around for over 130 years. This firm works with the cradle-to-cradle principle, reducing waste and re-using everything that is produced. Moreover the tiles are all in keeping with the style of the original farm and give the bathrooms a warm and comfortable feel.
To remain true to the original, all floors in the farm are oak floorboards in a beach colour that bring the sea closer to you.
The beds in the Farm House are all king-size Eastborn box spring beds. The matrasses can be adjusted to your comfort.
Our aim at the Farm is to make you feel at home, warm and comfortable, with no luxuries to spare. The attention to detail give the accommodations in the Farm House a modern feel, but with a nod to the original. Treat yourself to the best that Zeeland has to offer and make yourself at home.
Farm Suite with bath
Farm Suite with bath - The top floor of the characteristic farm has been converted into a stunning suite. The colours and paintings decorating the suite are in keeping with the time the farm was originally built. The dormers were fitted during the renovation and give the space plenty of light, but also make for a very quiet room, a place where one can withdraw oneself and relax. Downstairs, at the entrance, there is a spacious wardrobe and a beautiful staircase up to the sunny and spacious suite. At the landing for the stairs there is a comfy lounge with coffee- and tea facilities as well as a fridge and television. Coffee and tea is restocked daily in the suites.
Through the lounge you enter the suite, which bathes in sun. To make the most of the light, seats are fitted into the window still for you to enjoy the views over the countryside. The room features a second large flat-screen television. The real centrepiece of the suite is the bathroom, offering a beautiful freestanding bathtub with a view, as well as a separate rain shower and a double sink. A small private terrace belongs to this suite. The terrace is close to the suite and offers you the opportunity to enjoy the ‘Zeeuwse’ sun.
Breakfast is included when booking this room.

Farm Suite with terrace
Farm Suite with terrace - The former living quarters of the farm have been converted into a modern and relaxing suite. When entering the suite you will find a cosy lounge complete with television for you to feel at ease. A second television can be found in the bedroom. Moving through the original corridor you will notice the original farm tiling that has been renovated in 2013. Another original feature that is hard to miss can be found in the bathroom. The “bedstee” where the family would once have slept, has been converted into a wash space featuring a sink and large mirror, hidden away behind louvre doors. The bathroom also features a large rain-shower.
The bedroom bathes in natural light and gives you all the comfort from a home away from home. The room invites you to take it easy and settle in. The suite profits from a lot of natural light, which combined with the neutral colours in keeping with the era, provides for a warm and welcoming space. Once outside again, you can enjoy the beauty of the Zealand landscape from your private terrace.

Good to know
A couple of things are good to know about our farmhouse. The old building has been renovated to the highest standards. This results in our insulation being very good. You might be surprised about how calm and quiet it is inside. Some of our guests have expressed that they slept so well in there, they got up later than planned. We typically serve breakfast until 10:30 but if you want to make sure you don’t miss out, we can always wake you up
All accommodations in the Farmhouse have a comfortable seating area for you to relax and enjoy a book. They do not however, unlike the rooms in the villa, have a dining table. Of course you’re more than welcome to read the morning paper outside in one of our beautiful gardens.
The double room in the Farmhouse looks out over the Oude Domburgseweg on one side and onto the farm buildings on the other side. It is a beautiful view, but you will not be able to see the Zeeuwse landscape from your room.
Please note that smoking is not allowed inside the Farm. You are welcome to smoke outside but please mind your neighbours when doing so.
