This nature house is part of an authentic 19th-century Twente farmhouse and can accommodate up to 10 people. The cottage is part of the farm, which is divided into two sections. The owners live on the right side, while the left side is the vacation area—your accommodations. This division gives you the feeling that you have the entire farm to yourself. You’ll enjoy views of the meadow, privacy, and your own private entrance. Guests’ first reaction is often, “Oh, what a big window! And what a lovely view across the meadows!” The patio on the left side of the farmhouse is spacious enough for the whole group and is furnished with comfortable patio furniture. In the height of summer, you can cool off in the shade of the oak trees surrounding the garden, making this nature house a wonderful place to enjoy your vacation all year round. Especially for younger guests, it’s always nice to know there are two more spacious bedrooms upstairs. That way, they have their own space to read a book or play a video game.
Nature and surroundings
The nature house is situated in a quiet, rural setting in Hof van Twente, close to the woods and surrounded by natural beauty. From the farm, you can take the 7.5-kilometer Kerspel Goor walking trail. You’ll walk along waterways, through meadows, across old farmyards, and through the woods of the Weldam Estate. In the surrounding area, you’ll find charming, idyllic villages and towns, such as Delden and Diepenheim, as well as old farmsteads, beautiful country estates, and castles. Another tip is to bike the Six Castles Route from Diepenheim. In short, let yourself be surprised by the beautiful surroundings of Hof van Twente.

It was extremely hot on the weekend of June 19. The owners had left the window open in the attic, which let the heat in and made it impossible to sleep. We had to haul mattresses downstairs ourselves so we could all sleep downstairs.
In addition, the tile floors were very wet (perhaps another heat-related issue?).
Important tip: Replace and/or repair the window screens, because mosquitoes had free rein in the bedrooms.het was heel erg warm in het weekend van 19 juni. De eigenaren hadden op de zolderverdieping het raam opengelaten, waardoor de hitte binnen was gekomen en er niet te slapen viel. We hebben (zelf) met matrassen gesleept om allemaal beneden te slapen.
Daarnaast waren de plavuizenvloeren erg nat (ook een hitteprobleem?)
Belangrijke tip: vervang en/of repareer de horren, want muggen hadden vrij spel in de slaapkamers.Fantastic location, beautiful lot
fantastische liogging, mooi perceel
