East of Deventer lies this beautiful estate. You will stay in this beautiful nature house. Together with nature house 26057 (ten persons) these two houses form the hunting houses. Welcome to the cozy home of Teunis ten Velde on Het Oostermaet estate! This charming pavilion from 1907, once next to a hunting lodge, is a haven amid the greenery of Lettele, Okkenbroek and Bathmen. The atmosphere here exudes the nostalgia of the 1950s, but with a modern twist. Enjoy the comfort of an electrically heated shower and toilet, while the cozy living room is heated by a classic wood stove, perfect for cozy evenings. In the well-equipped kitchen you'll find everything you need, including an electric stove and oven. With two bedrooms, for a total of 4 people, but even with two people, the atmosphere remains intimate. If you walk along the rhododendrons to the house you can just see a few deer in the field.
Nature and surroundings
Until the 19th century, the area where the nature houses are located partly consisted of wasteland. The Hottinger map from about 1785 shows the area as the "Bathmenerheyde," an area not yet cultivated. The 1st inhabitant (Abraham Capadose) had two hunting houses placed and planted many rhododendron bushes to provide shelter for the game. The forest there is periodically harvested wood from the complex through forest management. The highest degree of nature protection is stipulated in the Nature Protection Act. This has led to the development of special and rare plant species. It is a beautiful and open forest meadow where, through the efforts of KNNV volunteers, many natural values have developed.

Xander May 26, 2023 General rating:Ruim en prettig huis, leuke indeling.
We misten alleen een 2e bedlampje in de ''master'' bedroom. Én gezien het stralende weer, zouden wat ''luie'' tuinstoelen ook heerlijk zijn geweest!Nature, peace & environment:Heerlijk rustig huisje met veel vogels en mooie natuur direct in de omgeving.
