There is a living room with open kitchen, open connection to bedroom and a bathroom with shower and toilet. In the living room is a lounge sofa from which you look over the large forest garden. Then the kitchen, equipped with stove, refrigerator, microwave, Senseo coffee maker and kettle. The bedroom has a cozy double box bed (1.40 x 2.00) and an extra sink. The cottage is less suitable for people taller than two meters. From the cottage and the terrace you overlook a large woodland garden and the pond. In the garden are several seats and sunbeds.
Nature and surroundings
In our garden you can use 2 bird-watching/photography huts and 1 wildlife observation screen. Here you can spot many species of birds, squirrels and mice and at dusk you have a chance of seeing foxes, badgers, pine marten, wild boars, deer and red deer. This "wild" part of our garden may be used by guests of both vacation homes. In addition, you have your own generous piece of private garden next to the house, containing sunbeds and a picnic table. Walking and cycling routes literally start next door. Endless forests and moors surround the cottage and no neighbors to be seen.

A lovely, cozy little house with a beautiful view from the couch.
Mooi sfeervol huisje, prachtig overzicht vanaf de bank.
Beautiful, secluded location. You can walk right into the woods. Lots of birds in the garden. You can hear the road clearly—it’s pretty close by.
Prachtig vrij gelegen. Je loopt zo het bos in. Veel vogels in de tuin. De weg hoor je goed, is vrij dichtbij.

A charming cottage with a cozy box bed and a beautiful view from the sitting area. Ideally located for taking beautiful walks right from the cottage and enjoying nature. Unfortunately, due to the drawback mentioned under the heading “peace, space, and nature,” peace and quiet were hard to find at the cottage itself; the animals stayed away, and accessibility wasn’t optimal either.
Leuk huisje met knusse bedstee en prachtig uitzicht vanuit de zithoek. Ideale ligging om direct vanuit het huisje mooie wandelingen te maken en om te genieten van de natuur. Vanwege het minpunt onder kopje 'rust, ruimte en natuur' was de rust bij het huisje zelf helaas ver te zoeken, bleven de dieren weg en was ook de bereikbaarheid niet optimaal.
It was extremely disappointing that every day during our stay, right behind the cottage between 6:45 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., there was a lot of loud noise from machines and people working on the forest. As a result, the peace and quiet we’d been looking forward to so much was hard to find during the day. We stood by the wildlife viewing screen and birdwatching spot several times around sunrise and sunset, but unfortunately didn’t see anything—and I understand that you need a bit of luck for that. However, even near the cottage itself, we saw very few animals aside from a few birds, which most likely had to do with all the noise, because if we look at the guestbook, visitors are normally treated to plenty of wildlife sightings. If we’d known this beforehand, we would have loved to come back another time for the full experience… because it really is a beautiful spot…
Enorm teleurstellend dat er tijdens ons verblijf iedere dag pal achter het huisje tussen 6:45 en 16:00 heel hard lawaai werd gemaakt door machines en mensen i.v.m. boswerkzaamheden. De rust waar we zo naar uitkeken was daardoor ver te zoeken overdag. We hebben op meerdere momenten rond zonsopgang en -ondergang bij het wildscherm en vogelkijkpunt gestaan, maar helaas niks gezien, en ik snap dat je daar ook een beetje geluk bij nodig hebt. Echter, ook bij het huisje zelf hebben we heel erg weinig dieren gezien op enkele vogeltjes na, wat hoogstwaarschijnlijk met alle herrie te maken heeft gehad, want als we het gastenboek erbij pakken wordt men normaal gesproken volop op allerlei dierlijke aanwezigheid getrakteerd. Als we dit van te voren hadden geweten dan waren we graag een andere keer langsgekomen voor de volledige experience... want het is wel écht een prachtig plekje…
