9292.nl (in English) is your friend for this one! Sevenum shares a train station with Horst (Horst being north of the station, Sevenum being south) so that's where you'll need to head before getting the bus to Toverland.
You'll need to do the following (these are single prices):
- Bus number 401 from
Eindhoven Airport to
Eindhoven Central (€2.50 / €1.65 with Chip Card)
- Train from
Eindhoven Central to
Horst-Sevenum (€8.30 / €4.98 with Chip Card)
- Bus number 79 or 679 from
Horst, Station Zuidzijde to
Sevenum, Toverland (€4.51 / €2.98 with Chip Card)
Not sure what else you're doing in the area, but the chip card (the equivalent of an Oyster Card) can be bought for about €7.50, so you'd likely make back the cost of that in the discount it gives you on the trains/buses even if you're just doing a return trip to Toverland. These can be purchased and loaded anonymously, so no need for lengthy registration forms - but you do need a minimum of €15 balance on the card when using the train, so bit of a pain.
Hotels wise, I've mainly travelled via car so hotels have always been at a midpoint between Toverland and a park such as Efteling. There's a few guesthouses and hotels around there, with one called "Staatsie 1866" being right by the station in Horst and having decent reviews.
