In the middle of the Veluwe you will find this cozy nature cottage on a small vacation park. The 2000 m² private woodland garden immediately offers you a sense of peace and space. The cottage is not large, but equipped with many modern conveniences. In the living room - decorated to your taste with a sense of detail - with open connection to the kitchen you will find a wood-burning stove (bring your own wood) and a gas fireplace. The kitchen is equipped with a microwave, gas stove, refrigerator and washer/dryer combination. In the "wet room" you will find a modern shower cabin, hanging toilet and sink. Heating by means of a heating element. Increasing comfort are the WiFi connection and television (fiberglass). The books in the bookcase, as well as magazines can be used freely. In the bedroom there is a double bed (140x200). Outside is a covered veranda with table and chairs. There are garden chairs with cushions, draggable through the garden to imagine yourself even more in the midst of nature. There is also a shed with a ladies and gentlemen's bike. These may be used. Your pet is also welcome!

Nature and surroundings

The small-scale park on which this nature cottage can be found is located against the Crown Estates Het Loo. The nature cottage is an ideal base for endless walks and bike rides through the woods and over the vast heathlands. On your exploration you will encounter old burial mounds, fens and springs (streams) with their fascinating vegetation and sometimes the shepherd herding his flock. It is not inconceivable that your path may be crossed by a deer or a wild boar. Your treks will continue to be accompanied by bird sounds. About one kilometer before the little park is a campground. You can use the camp store in season for basic necessities, and there is also a snack bar and restaurant. In the village of Emst there is a Spar with a larger assortment of groceries. Just outside Emst you will find wellness center De Veluwse Bron. Emst is located between Epe and Vaassen, about 12 kilometers north of Apeldoorn. Don't forget to visit the Koda Museum in Apeldoorn and the Museum of Contemporary Art in Gorssel. Epe has undergone a facelift and seems to have become a cozy shopping town. In Vaassen stands the Cannenburgh Castle, which is open to visitors.

    The surroundings are very beautiful, with vast forests perfect for hiking, and the area is a great place to relax.
    It’s also quiet around the cottage, and you can enjoy nature (squirrels).

    We had a nice midweek stay at the Parkiet—it’s a small, cozy cottage right in the middle of a very wooded bungalow park.
    The cottage isn’t big, but it has everything you need.
    The bedroom is a bit on the small side, but once you get used to it, it’s perfectly fine.
    Even though it was already October, we still spent a lot of time outdoors thanks to the mild weather.
    In short, we had a great time there.

    I recognize a lot of what’s been said in previous reviews. It’s a nice little cottage, and it’s pleasant to sit outside on the porch. The shower looks different from the photo, and the bathroom fixtures are outdated (so they’re hard to clean properly). All in all, it’s fine for a cottage that the owners clearly use themselves, but it bothers me that there’s an additional 45 euros in cash for “cleaning fees,” even though the cottage really wasn’t very clean.
    That said, the bed was comfortable, everything we needed was there, and we had a wonderful time.

    Emst is beautiful! This cottage is located close to a few other cottages (you can see the patios). It’s pretty quiet right now, but I can imagine it’s different in the summer.

    We had a wonderful time at the cottage "De Parkiet." Surrounded by nature, with squirrels and woodpeckers coming to visit. A beautiful, wooded area where you might spot deer, wild boars, or wolves. Nature at its best.
    We really enjoyed ourselves.

    Peace, quiet, greenery, nature.
