This cozy nature house offers peace, space, and privacy. Our secluded cottage is situated in a large, fenced-in private garden (over 1,000 m²) surrounded by trees. It’s just a three-minute walk to the forest. You can relax here, and children will have a great time playing with all the toys provided. Our cottage features a lovely, bright living room, 3 bedrooms, and a large porch with a cozy outdoor fireplace. The spacious garden includes a sandbox, a trampoline with a net, a swing, a jungle gym with a slide, and, of course, comfortable patio furniture. It’s a child- and senior-friendly, single-story home with all the amenities: a flat-screen smart TV, a kitchen with a combination microwave-oven, a refrigerator with freezer drawers, a dishwasher, a washing machine, and Wi-Fi. A travel crib and high chair are also available for free use, as are the bicycles and go-kart on the property. You can park your car right next to the house.

Nature and surroundings
The nature house is located on the edge of Dwingelderveld National Park and the Ruinen Forest District in the municipality of De Wolden; it’s an ideal base for kilometers of biking and hiking. Many routes start right near the cottage. Or how about exploring the area on an e-scooter, Segway, or going geocaching (GPS treasure hunting) from this charming spot? Koekange is 150 kilometers from Amsterdam, situated between the charming towns of Meppel, Hoogeveen, and Zwolle. It’s also close to Giethoorn, Steenwijk, Diever, and Ruinen. The nearly 4,000-hectare nature reserve is managed by Natuurmonumenten. It features a very varied landscape with beautiful forests, fens, and heathlands. The Drents-Friese Wold nature reserve, Emmen Zoo/Wildlands Adventure Zoo, the Drentse Koe petting farm, and Plopsa Indoor Coevorden are also nearby. Or visit one of the many charming villages, such as Bourtange, Ansen, Dwingeloo, Exloo, or Orvelte. The cottage feels like home right away—a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Cycle junction 93, among others, is just around the corner.

In my opinion, the cottage is perfect. Everything you need is right there, it’s beautifully decorated, the beds are comfortable, there’s internet, and a nice bathroom with a shower. And the garden...amazing! It’s fully fenced, ideal for dogs. There’s a great covered area where you can sit dry with a cup of coffee, even during heavy rain. You can even light a little fireplace. The garden wraps around the cottage and is filled with dense trees and plants, giving you plenty of privacy. It’s peaceful there, and they have many amenities: bikes, a BBQ, a trampoline, and kids’ toys, etc. The garden is so big that you can easily throw a ball with your dog. The owners are very easy to reach and respond to questions right away; they’re really nice people. 10/10 rating—the best cottage and surroundings I’ve stayed in so far.
Het huisje is in mijn beleving perfect. Alles voor handen, mooi ingericht , lekkere bedden , internet en een goede badkamer met douche. En de tuin...super! Alles omheind, ideaal voor honden. Een hele goede overkapping waar je bij zelfs heftige regen droog onder zit met je bakje koffie. Je kan zelfs een open haardje aansteken. De tuin loopt rondom het huisje door en heeft dichtbegroeide bomen en planten waardoor je veel privacy hebt. Het is er rustig en ze hebben vele voorzieningen, fietsen, bbq, trampoline en kinderspeelgoed ect. Tuin is zo groot dat je leuk een bal kan gooien met je hond. Eigenaren zijn heel goed bereikbaar en op vragen heb je zo antwoord, hele aardige mensen. 10/10 score, beste huisje en omgeving waar ik tot nu toe in heb gezeten.
Walk a few hundred meters and you’ll find yourself in the woods. You can explore the forest for miles along wide trails or narrow paths. It’s perfect for walking the dog—there’s a large area where dogs can run free. You can walk about four kilometers and end up at the forest cabin, where you can enjoy a delicious fried egg sandwich. Or you can drive 20 minutes to Dwingeloo, where there’s a nature park that’s truly beautiful. Meppel is also a charming little town with nice outdoor cafes.
Je loopt een paar honderd meter en je staat in het bos. Je kan kilometers ver over brede paden of kleine looppaadjes door het bos. Ideaal met een hond , groot losloopbos. Zo kan je een kilometer of vier lopen en kom je bij de boshut waar je lekker een uitsmijtertje eet. Of je rijd een 20 minuten naar Dwingeloo waar een natuurpark is dat werkelijk prachtig is. Meppel , ook een leuk stadje met leuke terrasjes.
