Nature and surroundings

This nature house is located in the heart of the beautiful Het Reestdal nature reserve (the Reest is the small river that forms the border between Drenthe and Overijssel), featuring meadows, wooded areas, and heathlands with plenty of opportunities for hiking and biking—right from the house! The Dwingelerveld National Park, the Weeribben, and Giethoorn are all nearby. Also nearby are the vast nature and forest areas in Ommen and the Staphorster Dennen. And last but not least, the Reestdal region itself, of course, with its beautiful, ever-changing historic landscapes, dotted with many old farms, small hamlets, and villages.

    When you arrive, Het Reestdal Farm is a sight to behold, and inside, it’s a beautifully decorated, comfortable home equipped with all the amenities. The spacious kitchen has top-quality appliances, and all kinds of kitchenware are provided. All windows are equipped with screens. We had a pleasant interaction with the friendly and helpful host, who provided information whenever we asked and even arranged bicycles for us. The host also shared a lot about nature when we asked, which was very interesting. Furthermore, he gave us complete privacy and peace and quiet. It felt as though we were living all by ourselves on a farm for two weeks. We had a fantastic stay!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    The “Het Reestdal” nature house and vacation farm is located at the front of the host’s property and overlooks farmland, pastures, and the edge of the forest. The spacious front yard is filled with trees, making it a wonderful place to relax on warm days. A woodpecker even stopped by for a snack in one of the trees while we were sitting there. A barn owl was perched in the large barn. There are many storks and hares. From the Wheem near Oud Avereest, you can take various walks: through woods, heathland, wheat fields, past very old farms, and along stretches right next to the Reest River. At several farms, you’ll find self-service stands offering drinks, cookies, and candy. At one farm, there’s even a machine serving homemade soft-serve ice cream. Really fun. You pay using a QR code or by dropping money into a cash box.

    Een groot huis met in de woonkamer 3 banken, een grote eettafel met voldoende zitplaatsen. De ruime keuken is van alle gemakken voorzien. Er staan meerder afvalbakken om het afval te scheiden. Met 6 volwassenen en een peuter is er genoeg ruimte. Er zijn 4 slaapkamers waarvan 2 beneden en 2 boven. De bedden zijn uitstekend. In de nacht is het erg donker en heel stil.
    Van de verhuurder kregen wij heerlijke eitjes die wij de de lunch opgesmikkeld hebben.
    Kortom, wij hebben een heerlijk weekend gehad.
    Familie Kreuger.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Het natuurhuisje staat in een prachtige omgeving, landelijk en bosrijk. De ruimte om het huisje is heerlijk groen met uitzicht op boerderijen en een bloementuin. Om het huisje is veel ruimte. Voor de kleinste maar ook voor volwassenen is er een trampoline, een klim-en-klauter-glijbaan. En de kippen niet te vergeten.

You can stay here without personal contact with the host, for example via a key safe or digital access. A contactless stay does not always have to be mandatory.
What does “Fireworks-free” mean?
The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation.
