A cozy little cottage. A comfortable bed, a nice shower, and a kitchen with everything you need. The cottage is a bit dated and could use some sprucing up, but it’s cozy and inviting. It’s located a short distance from a chicken farm, and you can occasionally hear the sounds of the machinery, but it’s not disruptive. The cottage is situated on a beautiful piece of land, with a natural spring and a wonderful orchard (we were invited to pick raspberries in particular, and they were delicious).
Jop and Ben are lovely people. The cottage has plenty of information about things to do in the area (hiking, biking, dining, sights...). They regularly hung out fresh birdseed, so we saw birds around the cottage every day. When we moved the floor lamp, the concrete base fell out from underneath it—Ben took the lamp with him and returned a short while later with the lamp fitted with a different base—which he happened to have lying around. Wonderful.Een huisje waar het goed toeven is. Een prima bed, dito douche en een keuken waar alles is dat je nodig hebt. Het huisje is gedateerd en kan een opknapbeurt gebruiken, maar het is knus en gezellig. Het huisje zit op korte afstand van een kippenboerderij en af en toe hoor je de geluiden van de apparatuur, maar het is niet storend. Het huisje ligt op een mooi stukje land, met een natuurlijke bron en een geweldige boomgaard (wij werden uitgenodigd toch vooral frambozen te plukken en die waren heerlijk).
Jop en Ben zijn fijne mensen. In het huisje is veel informatie aanwezig over wat er allemaal te doen is in de omgeving (wandelen, fietsen, eten, bezienswaardigheden...). Regelmatig werd er nieuw voer voor de vogeltjes opgehangen, waardoor we elke dag vogeltjes om het huisje zagen. Toen we de staande lamp verplaatsten viel de betonnen voet eronder uit -Ben nam de lamp toen mee en kwam even later terug met de lamp met een andere voet eronder -die had hij toch liggen. Geweldig.A wonderful area with plenty of opportunities for beautiful walks and bike rides. There’s also, for example, a fortified village like Bourtange, the castle in Wedde, and other fascinating sights. There are plenty of country stores and roadside stalls selling cheese, jam, potatoes, and all sorts of other things. Really nice!
Een geweldige omgeving met mogelijkheden zat voor mooie wandelingen en fietstochten. Daarnaast bijvoorbveeld een vestingstandje als Bourtange, de burcht in Wedde en andere boeiende bezienswaardigheden. Veel landwinkels stalletjes langs de weg met kaas, jam, aardappelen en wat dies meer zij. Heel fijn!
