Guests who stayed here find the surroundings fantastic for
Walk the dog Bird watching Cycling Hiking

This former Sunday school is located in a rural, wooded area in the Achterhoek. This charming historic building from 1924 is now a pleasant and spacious nature house, suitable for both summer and winter. It originally had two classrooms; now it features a spacious living room and a kitchen-dining area. The sitting area features comfortable furniture, and the modern kitchen is fully equipped. Upstairs, in the two cozy bedrooms, there are five hotel-quality beds. A sixth bed is located in the third small room. A luxurious bathroom with a spacious walk-in shower completes the comfort. For small children, a high chair, a stair gate, and a crib are provided. At the back is a spacious terrace, and the forest is a wonderful place for children to play. There are two private parking spaces and a small shelter for storing bicycles; two bicycles are provided for your use. The home is heated by a heat pump and receives its own electricity through a “postcode rose” arrangement using solar panels in the neighborhood. Check-out on Sun, Wed, or Thu is by 6:00 PM.

Nature and surroundings

The nature house is completely detached, with a beautiful view of the meadows and the property’s own forest. This former school is situated in a picturesque spot at the corner of two country roads: a 60-kilometer single-lane road with two red bike lanes and a narrow country lane. Explore the border region with Germany; the beautiful bocage landscape is very diverse. Hills, farmland, meadows, vineyards, wooded areas, and plains: a perfect starting point for lovely bike rides and hikes. Both the cycling route network and the hiking route network run right past this nature house. Near Aalten lies Bredevoort, the “book town.” This unique little town is definitely worth a visit.

    Lovely place to spend a week. The cottage is very tastefully decorated in the style of "the old Sunday school" and equipped with all amenities and very comfortable. We really enjoyed the warmth that the Heat Pump brought us in the cold days !

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Lovely place to stay, wonderfully quiet and a pleasure to watch the little birds from the kitchen eating and drinking at the feeder outside the window.

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.
