Nature house in Wyns
Friesland, Netherlands
- 3 persons
- 2 bedrooms
- Pets allowed
Beautifully located self-sufficient, detached miller's cottage in the middle of the Frisian nature reserve Wynserpolder. A unique place. The nature house is about an eight-minute walk through the meadow (no paved path); ideal for de-stressers, birdwatchers, nature lovers and/or writers. Go "back-to basics" and enjoy the (predatory) birds, deer, hares, cows, storks and swans in the backyard. Fifteen minutes from Leeuwarden. The nature house is ideal for two people, if necessary 1 extra person can come along. Large, wild garden (food forest in the making). A nature reserve in miniature, a haven for dragonflies, birds, bees and insects. Man is a guest there, so don't expect raked paths! The bathroom is separate from the cottage. There you will find the shower and dry toilet. Urine and feces are collected separately. There is sufficient (solar) power for charging devices.
Nature and surroundings
The Wynserpolder is a bird breeding area of the Forestry Commission, where various meadow birds nest in the spring: lapwings, black-tailed godwits and redshanks, but where you will also discover other birds. Storks walk jauntily in the meadows around the cottage, birds of prey like buzzards, kestrels and harriers circle in the area. The cottage is in the middle of this nature reserve.

Hanneke December 24, 2025 General rating:Beautiful simplicity and really off the grid. That's what we were going for.
Prachtige eenvoud en echt off the grid. Daar gingen we voor.
Nature, peace & environment:It was great! Really private, in the middle of the meadows, hares, deer and enjoyed the frost and cold. Really back to basics.
Het was geweldig! Echt privé, midden in de weilanden, hazen, reeen en genoten van de vorst en de kou. Echt back to basic.

Nature, peace & environment:We enjoyed our stay at the cottage in Wyns. Although the cottage is not connected to any pipes, all amenities are provided by natural sources and solutions. It is a wonderful location in the middle of a protected bird area. Enthusiasts only need to put a chair down under the mill and grab a pair of binoculars and you have a view of numerous species of birds. We were there during a beautiful late summer weekend and were able to sit outside. . I can imagine that on winter days it might feel a bit more Spartan with a wood stove and having to go outside for your needs. It is an ideal place for people who want to be "off-grid" for a while. No one bothers you. We were very warmly received by the owner. It was a fine experience.
We hebben genoten van ons verblijf in het huisje in Wyns. Alhoewel het huisje op geen enkele leiding is aangesloten, zijn alle voorzieningen aanwezig door natuurlijke bronnen en oplossingen. Het is een heerlijke locatie, midden in een beschermd vogelgebied. Liefhebbers hoeven maar een stoel neer te zetten onder de molen en een verrekijker te pakken en je hebt zicht op talrijke soorten vogels. Wij waren er tijdens een mooi nazomers weekend en hebben we lekker buiten kunnen zitten. . Ik kan mij voorstellen dat het op winterse dagen wellicht wat Spartaanser aan doet met een houtkachel en naar buiten te moeten voor je behoeftes. Het is een ideale plek voor mensen die even “off-grid” willen zijn. Niemand valt je lastig. We zijn zeer hartelijk ontvangen door de eigenaar. Het was een fijne ervaring.

Een beetje primitief maar daar hou ik wel van.

Prachtige ligging, zeer rustig, veel privacy. Ruime tuin met veel beschutting maar ook uitzicht.
