Escape the hustle and bustle and experience peace, space and privacy in this characterful nature house in the municipality of Bronckhorst. This detached (renovated) farmhouse is located just outside the village center of Baak, a hundred meters from the public road, in the middle of greenery. The farmhouse dates from 1830 and was originally a farm worker's house. The former barn and stables are now furnished as a spacious living and dining room with French doors opening onto a sheltered terrace facing southwest. All rooms are on the ground floor. The farmhouse has 3 bedrooms, a spacious bathroom with shower and 2 sinks and a large dining kitchen at the front. The nature house sleeps up to 6 people, a charming detail being the low front door and one low bedroom door, a nod to the old days when people were smaller. A wonderful place for children to play and those who appreciate nature, comfort and history.
Nature and surroundings
East of the Gelderland IJssel and Rhine rivers lies the Achterhoek: a green and diverse region with a park-like landscape. Forests, fields and meadows alternate, while rivers and streams cross the area. In the area you will find characteristic farms, atmospheric villages and impressive castles. A short distance away are several historic Hanseatic cities, such as Zutphen, Deventer, Bronkhorst and Doesburg - ideal for a day of culture and fun. For nature lovers and families with children there is plenty to do. Several hiking routes start directly from the nature house, including the Helmich route. This includes a children's nature trail through the Deer Forest, where young explorers can playfully experience nature. And the Achterhoek offers excellent opportunities for walking and cycling in peace and quiet.

This nature house is a refurbished farmhouse. The cottage still has a few authentic low doorways. So for tall people be careful. The cottage is otherwise fully equipped. Plus points: extensive kitchen inventory, closet with board games, toys for children from group 1/2 for indoor and outdoor (climbing house with swings and slide, sandpit with toys, for older children the go-kart with 2 seats is a topper). The cottage has a cozy kitchen, where we spent much time, especially in the evening. Two bedrooms open onto the living room. With children we found such a layout not so convenient. Especially if you can not sit outside in the evening (yet). The third bedroom opens onto the kitchen.
Dit natuurhuisje is een opgeknapt boerderijtje. Het huisje heeft nog een paar authentieke lage deuropeningen. Voor lange mensen is het dus oppassen geblazen. Het huisje is verder van alle gemakken voorzien. Pluspuntjes: uitgebreide keukeninventaris, kast met bordspelletjes, speelgoed voor kinderen vanaf groep 1/2 voor binnen en buiten (klimhuisje met schommels en glijbaan; zandbak met speeltjes; voor oudere kinderen is de skelter met 2 zitjes een topper).
Het huisje heeft een gezellige keuken, waar wij vooral 's avonds veel tijd doorbrachten. Twee slaapkamers komen nl. uit op de huiskamer. Met kinderen vonden wij zo'n indeling niet zo handig. Vooral als je 's avonds (nog) niet buiten kunt zitten. De derde slaapkamer komt uit in de keuken.We stayed there in March. The cottage is surrounded by grasslands. No meadow birds could detect, though two hares, and a bird of prey. Opposite the cottage is a large dairy farm. There was still little activity there. Cows were stabled. In the immediate vicinity are a few marked hiking trails. Varied landscape. Many detours possible of about an hour at a leisurely walking pace. In the nearby 't Hertenbos is fun walking with children (including cable car, deer meadow, rope bridge). The area lends itself well to going out by bike. Beautiful river landscape.
We verbleven er in maart. Het huisje is omringd door graslanden. Geen weidevogels kunnen ontdekken, wel twee hazen, en een roofvogel. Tegenover het huisje is een grote melkveehouderij. Daar was nog weinig reuring. Koeien stonden op stal. In de directe omgeving zijn een paar uitgezette wandelroutes. Afwisselend landschap. Veel ommetjes mogelijk van ongeveer een uurtje in rustig wandeltempo. In het nabijgelegen 't Hertenbos is het leuk wandelen met kinderen (o.a. kabelbaantje, hertenwei, touwbrug). De omgeving leent zich goed om er met de fiets op uit te trekken. Mooi rivierenlandschap.

Clean and warm house. Beautifully renovated yet retains its character. Everything is there, floor is even nice and warm in winter.
Schoon en warm huis. Mooi gerenoveerd en toch zijn karakter behouden.
Alles is aanwezig, vloer is zelfs heerlijk warm in de winter.Nice quiet place, among the meadows and trees, many birds and hares.Private yard and long driveway, plenty of privacy.Sun and shade spots and seating around the house.Screens everywhere in the house.
Mooie rustige plek, tussen de weilanden en bomen, veel vogels en hazen.
Eigen erf en lange oprit, genoeg privacy.
Zon en schaduw plekken en zitjes rondom het huis.
Overal in huis horren.This text is automatically translated. -

Attractive, refurbished farmhouse. Because the rooms are a bit narrow and the hosts have also taken into account the elderly, there are only single beds. If that is not a problem, then this is a wonderful place for a few days away.
Sfeervol, opgeknapt boerderijtje. Omdat de kamers wat smal zijn en de verhuurders ook rekening hebben gehouden met ouderen, staan er alleen eenpersoons bedden. Als dat geen probleem is, dan is dit een heerlijk plekje voor een paar dagen weg.
Lovely cottage in a quiet location in the middle of the meadows and just renovated, so nice and fresh and fully equipped.
Heerlijk huisje op een rustige lokatie midden tussen de weilanden en net gerenoveerd, dus lekker fris en van alle gemakken voorzien.
