Meeting venue Hof van Gelre
Achterhoek
At Hof van Gelre in Lochem you shape your training, meeting or course in multifunctional halls with daylight and climate control, right in the heart of the Achterhoek.

Meet and gather in Lochem
Four multifunctional halls — Wiersse, Warmelo, Verwolde and Wildenborch — used separately or combined; Wiersse and Warmelo together form one spacious hall. Daylight, climate control, sound-insulated walls and a secure network throughout. After the session you unwind in the heated indoor pool, the lounge by the open fire or on the terrace overlooking the garden. We also have a dedicated approach for works councils.
Meeting with your works council
Hof van Gelre is set up for works councils — with clear cost transparency up front for the chair, the secretary and the employer. If the trainer stays too, their package is half price. The works-council package includes: a welcome with coffee or tea and a regional treat, water in the room and unlimited coffee and tea at the coffee corner, Flow bites & drinks, two or three Flow lunches, one or two evenings of a three-course choice menu, one or two overnight stays with breakfast, one or two snacks including a drink, Flow amenities with a meeting room, daylight, flip-over and beamer, and one relaxing activity of about an hour — for example a photo walk or klootschieten (Dutch bowls). Use of the heated indoor pool, free wifi and parking are included. Fifteen minutes from the A1, in wooded surroundings and within walking distance of the centre of Lochem. Prices on request via sales@by-flow.com.

Celebrating in the Achterhoek
Something to celebrate? Hof van Gelre offers plenty of options for a fully arranged day — from a birthday and family party to an anniversary. Together the four halls seat up to 250 people. For parties and more informal gatherings our team always provides fitting decoration and personalised menu cards on the table.
