Meadow: the perfect mix of city and beach!

This city beach offers everything you need for a wonderful day in the sun, without having to leave the city. So put on your flip-flops, bring your sunglasses, factor 30 sunscreen and Meadow will take care of the rest!

Meadow is the ultimate summer (and spring!) place in Deventer, an oasis of tranquillity just a 10-minute walk from the city centre. This city beach is open from April to October and is ideal for a relaxing afternoon with friends or family. Enjoy a beautiful view over the IJssel river while you immerse yourself in that holiday feeling.  

What's on the menu? Meadow herself calls it a ‘small but nice menu’, but you won't be short of anything! From delicious sandwiches, toasted sandwiches, soups and snacks to a varied dinner menu: you could easily spend all day here! And of course, a refreshing drink is a must. From ice-cold cocktails to fresh mocktails and everything in between, there is something to toast with for everyone. 

Feet in the sand, drink in hand: what more could you want?

You probably understand by now that Meadow is the perfect place to chill. But active kids will also have a great time here. They can run around outside in the grass, swing or play inside in the play kitchen. Special activities such as story time or puppet shows are organised on a regular basis.  

At Stadsstrand Meadow you have the peace and relaxing feeling of a beach, while at the same time having the bustling city life of Deventer within easy reach. Ideal if you want to escape for a while, but don't want to be too far from the city.
