On the old switchyard near the village of Driezum, this former toll house stands as a nature house. Rebuilt in 1913 as a warehouse and now suitable as a cottage for two people. The nature house has a living room with a double bed, kitchen with microwave and dishwasher, bathroom with bath, separate shower and toilet. Upstairs is a sauna for free use. Behind the cottage is a terrace with garden chair set and barbecue. Parking is available right next door. The nature house does stand directly on the through road (60 km/hour) to Dokkum. The cottage itself is less suitable for absolute peace and quiet, but within five minutes you are right in a nature reserve for cycling and walking.
Nature and surroundings
The area is known for the so-called coulisse landscape; a semi-open landscape bordered by tree walls and hedges. The area is best explored by walking and cycling. Often across meadows, where no motorized traffic comes, on shell and sandy paths. The nature house is a good starting point for mudflat hiking, bird watching in the National Park Lauwersmeer. The Elfstedenstadje Dokkum is worth a visit: the Bonifatiuskapel, windmills, atmospheric city center with canals, pleasant shopping, terraces, eating out and the Admiralty House. Throughout the year there are nature excursions in the area.Dokkum can be reached in five minutes. Leeuwarden and the ferry ports to Schiermonnikoog and Ameland can be reached in 25 minutes by car.

Lovingly and thoughtfully decorated, so you don't notice at all how small the cottage is. We found everything we needed for everyday life and the kitchen was optimally equipped. The sauna was perfect!
Liefdevol en doordacht ingericht, waardoor je helemaal niet merkt hoe klein het huisje is. We vonden er alles wat we nodig hadden voor het dagelijks leven en de keuken was optimaal ingericht. De sauna was perfect!
A beautiful area with plenty of opportunities for biking and hiking. Although the house is directly on a provincial road, the traffic was not really bothered and it was very quiet at night.
Een prachtige omgeving met volop mogelijkheden om te fietsen en te wandelen. Hoewel het huis direct aan een provinciale weg ligt, had het verkeer niet echt last en was het ’s nachts erg rustig.

The cottage does lie very daughter along a through road.
Het huisje ligt wel erg docht langs een doorgaande weg.
A cozy cottage with all the amenities, and the sauna is great!
