While this partially solves the problem (the date is now correctly displayed as I want it), all dates are shown as 1-1 January 1970.

I know this has to do with the unix time stamp, which I encountered with a different go at cracking the code.

Any thoughts on how to solve this ? Nearly there, I can feel it 🙂
This is what I got at the moment

<?php  
$start_date = get_field('datum');
$start_time = strtotime($start_date);
$start_year = date('Y', $start_time);
$start_month = date('F', $start_time);
$start_day = date('j', $start_time);

$end_date = get_field('eind_datum');
$end_time = strtotime($end_date);
$end_year = date('Y', $end_time);
$end_month = date('F', $end_time);
$end_day = date('j', $end_time);

if (get_field('eind_datum') and get_field('datum') and ($end_month == $start_month)) {
  $display_date = $start_day.' - '.$end_day.' '.$end_month.' '.$end_year;
} 
elseif (get_field('eind_datum') and get_field('datum') and ($end_month != $start_month)) {
  $display_date = $start_day.' '.$start_month.' - '.$end_day.' '.$end_month.', '.$end_year;
}
else {
  $display_date = $start_day.' '.$start_month.' '.$start_year;
}
	
echo $display_date;
	 ?>
