Nature and surroundings

In the vicinity of the nature house are within cycling distance the unique nature reserves the Fochteloërveen and the Bald Dunes. The Fochteloërveen is the last piece of raised bog in the Netherlands that has not yet been cleared and where peat is still being formed. The sandy plain of the Kale Duinen is still expanding every year and is a fine example of the new insights in nature management. From the back entrance of the garden you can walk straight into the forest to the visitor center of the Drents- Friese Wold. After the Veluwe, this is the largest contiguous nature reserve in our country. Stream valleys, heaths and moors follow one another in this Friesland for nature seekers and foodies. Not too far from our scenic landscape lies the more expansive Friesland of sailors and skaters. Hedgerows, wooded country roads and peat canals crisscross the old landscape. And everywhere a spire looms up among the foliage. The dream region of every hiker, cyclist and nature lover. A world heritage site just a stone's throw away, Veenhuizen prison museum but also Belvedere, Heerenveen, the Drents Museum, Groningen Museum and a wealth of small regional museums.

    The house is remote. This is fine when you have transportation available.

    There is peace and quiet in and around the house. It is spacious and originally built. Host and hostess respond immediately when there are questions. Heating was via a pellet stove, which was fine for us.

What does “contactless stay” mean?
You can stay here without personal contact with the host, for example via a key safe or digital access. A contactless stay does not always have to be mandatory.
What does “Fireworks-free” mean?
The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation. You might occasionally hear some noise or see some light from fireworks set off outside the immediate area. It is important that you agree with the landlord on what you can expect.
