Stay overnight in the heart of Giethoorn. A quietly situated, thatched nature house with its own garden, directly adjacent to an accessible nature reserve featuring a frog pond, roe deer, otters, dragonflies, and reed and water birds. From the accommodation, you can hop right onto an electric boat or e-sloop for a tour through the National Park. These are available for rent at a discount on-site. During the early and late seasons, canoe rental is included free of charge. There is a covered bike shed with an e-bike charging station. The nature house has recently been tastefully redecorated and features comfortable furniture, a terrace with patio furniture, seating areas in the garden, and an open kitchen equipped with an air fryer, refrigerator, four-burner stove, and coffee maker. Also included: shower, sink, and toilet; central heating; flat-screen cable TV; and free Wi-Fi. The sleeping loft features a double bed (140 × 200 cm) with single-size duvets. For older guests or taller individuals, we recommend nature house listing 24229, located on the same property.

Nature and surroundings

Giethoorn is located in Weerribben-Wieden National Park, in the Kop van Overijssel region. This vast lowland peat bog is one of the most remarkable nature reserves in the Netherlands and is known for its lakes, canals, reed beds, and rich variety of plants and animals. Giethoorn itself is unique because of its large number of waterways. The famous village canal, narrow ditches, and surrounding nature all come together to form the landscape here. Thatched-roof farmhouses—often built on small islands and surrounded by well-maintained gardens—along with the many little bridges, define the village’s characteristic appearance. You’ll spend the night here in the heart of this special water village. The surroundings invite you to enjoy peaceful boat trips, bike routes, and walks that start right from the nature house. Giethoorn is home to various museums, galleries, and small shops. Excursions to Southwest Drenthe—with its heathlands, dolmens, and sheep pens—as well as to the Reestdal, Staphorst, Pantropica, or Taman Indonesia Animal Park are also among the possibilities.

    Lovely cozy cottage for 2 people in the middle of Giethoorn. At the cottage the peace of nature, if you want entertainment you walk to the canal. Very pleasant owner who is always helpful.

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.

The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation.
