Nature and surroundings

The hamlet of Papenvoort is located between Rolde (5 km) and Borger (7 km) and lies along the Historic TT Route in the municipality of Aa en Hunze. From our nature house, you can walk right through the garden to the pond and the watershed of the Drentse Aa, as well as the adjacent forests, where you might just spot a roe deer or a fox. There’s also a badger den, and the area is rich in many plant and bird species. The surrounding area offers many beautiful hiking and biking opportunities, and a visit to the Staatsbosbeheer Tree-Top Walk or the Hunebed Center in Borger is highly recommended. Assen is just 12 km away, featuring the Drents Museum, the De Nieuwe Kolk movie theater and theater, and a variety of charming shops, cafés, and restaurants. Just a few kilometers away is the “blues village” of Grolloo, the birthplace of Cuby, featuring the Cuby Museum and the “Cuby Café” Restaurant Hofsteenge. The area also boasts several lovely swimming spots with plenty of shade. Another beautiful spot is the Balloërveld with its old sheepfold. In short: plenty to do!

    Beautiful little house. You feel right at home the moment you walk in. The wood gives it a warm, cozy atmosphere. A very well-equipped, spacious kitchen—a pleasure to cook in. A nice, large walk-in shower. We had a wonderful time. We really relaxed. There’s also a nice sauna. We definitely recommend it.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    A lovely, peaceful cottage. Stunning, unobstructed views of the garden, which is home to many birds. The surroundings are beautiful. The Gieten-Borger Forest is just around the corner, where you can enjoy wonderful walks.
