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.

    Very nice small house which was fine for us. But we found it unfortunate that there is only single glass in the windows. Which made you feel the cold, if you were close, so come through it. Window and door frames let in a lot of cold drafts. And the shutters for the windows that closed in the evening did not close properly so that also has much less effect. That is in this time of expensive gas, we think, very unfortunate. Fortunately we could get it just decently warm but the stove was working overtime. A radiator foil behind the heater against the wall would also be an improvement because it was absorbing a lot of heat. The bathroom is equipped with everything, but we are not fans of a toilet in that room. Bedroom is doable but quite small and very dark in winter. The above is not meant negatively but could be points of improvement and then the house would easily get a grade 9.

    The Parkiet is an older cottage for 2 people and has been renovated to a reasonable extent.We had chosen this period because despite the cold outside temperature it is still nice to go for a walk with the dog in the for us known beautiful surroundings.In the cottage is everything we could desire.Fully equipped kitchen and a nice hot shower. The massage shower as in the picture is not there, but still. Easy bench in the living room and TV with many channels. Not to mention the warm welcome by Wennie the administrator of the cottage. Fine that we could discuss our different arrival time with her and what gave no problem. In the summer you can use the small covered terrace and in the spacious garden are some seating areas. Because of the time of year you could easily see the surrounding houses. But despite that , not bothered by and it was very nice and quiet.

    For 2 people it is a fantastic cottage. Very complete and furnished with taste. Cozy, but not overdone. Beautifully situated on a large plot, among the trees and bushes, with seats here and there, free space around and enough distance from other cottages. And quiet: only the sounds of nature, birds, wind in the trees and tapping of rain. Curious squirrels.The cottage park, located on a cul-de-sac for motorized traffic.Really for nature lovers.
