Basse is a hamlet in the Dutch province of Overijssel.[1] It is located in the municipality Steenwijkerland, about 7 km northwest of Steenwijk.[2]

It was first mentioned in 1425 as Bassinghe, and means "settlement belonging to Basse (person)".[3] It is a stretched out settlement. The farm Bassinghe used to contain a clandestine church.[4]

Since 1983, Basse organises the "Battle of Basse", a car and motocross on a dirt track.[5][6]
