Spend the night in the heart of Giethoorn. Quietly located, thatched nature house with private garden, directly adjacent to accessible nature reserve with frog pool, deer, fish otter, dragonflies and reed and water birds. From the accommodation you step right into a whisper boat or e-sloop for a trip through the National Park. These can be rented at a discount from location. In the early and late season canoe rental is included free of charge. There is a covered bicycle shed with e-bike charging point. The nature house has recently been tastefully refurnished and equipped with comfortable furniture, a terrace with garden furniture, seats in the garden and an open kitchen with airfryer, refrigerator, four-burner stove and coffee maker. Also present: shower, sink and toilet, central heating, flat-screen cable TV and free WiFi. The sleeping loft has a double bed (140 × 200 cm) with single comforters. For older guests or longer persons, we recommend nature house house code 24229, located in the same yard.

Nature and surroundings

Giethoorn is located in National Park Weerribben-Wieden, in the Kop van Overijssel. This vast low moorland swamp is among the most special nature reserves in the Netherlands and is known for its lakes, canals, reed beds and great wealth of plants and animals. Giethoorn itself is unique because of the large number of waterways. The famous village canal, narrow ditches and surrounding lakes make up the landscape here. Thatched farmhouses, often built on islands and surrounded by well-kept gardens, together with the many bridges determine the characteristic village image. You spend the night here in the middle of this special water village. The area invites for quiet boat trips, cycling routes and walks that start directly from the nature house. There are several museums, galleries and small stores in Giethoorn. Trips to Southwest Drenthe with its heathlands, dolmens and sheep pens; the Reest valley, Staphorst, Pantropica or animal park Taman Indonesia are also among the possibilities.

    We might do it again,but in a bigger house

    Nature, peace & environment: 5/5

    The cottage was clean,kitchen basic,also to kitchen equipment,a little too little.Broken plate(probably from the previous tenant),kitchen faucet broken,there was no drop of water from the faucet the next day there is a new faucet placed,there was also no hot water,no toilet paper,there is also a solution came for the hot water,that was then also in order,steep stairs,for me no good bed(bad back).The rest of the week slept on the seat.For the inconvenience of the tap and no water to have, the owner offered us a boat trip this we did appreciate.

What does “contactless stay” mean?
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. You might occasionally hear some noise or see some light from fireworks set off outside the immediate area. It is important that you agree with the landlord on what you can expect.
