Hidden among trees and bushes, at the end of a private road, lies this nostalgic nature house. Here you will find true peace and quiet. The farmhouse itself is all atmosphere: wooden trusses, uneven floors, soapstone wood stove, loft and French doors to the terrace. You can light old-fashioned fires in the garden, with witches' kettle above it for tasty stews. The nature house and the place offer everything for a wonderful vacation with the family, with friends or as a couple. There are three bedrooms, with Auping beds for a total of five people. The living room is cozy and nice and warm. Here you will also find the television. The kitchen is equipped with all the necessary appliances. For children there is a play corner. The soapstone wood stove provides plenty of warmth on cool days. To properly fire up the stove, you can use split and dried oak wood. For campfires outside, there is more than enough prunings around the cottage and in the forest.
Nature and surroundings
The nature house is located at the end of a private road, on a 4000 m² plot of land. Nature is your neighbor. You step out the door and walk away, along water or through forest. Two minutes' walk and you're at the swimming lake. If you get up early you have a chance to see deer in the back of the garden. To the left of the cottage, a farmer grows wheat and to the right, sugar beets grow. Right behind the farm runs a stream, where anglers regularly catch pike. On sunny days you can always find a nice spot around the farmhouse. Sit in the sun or seek shelter under the old beech tree. Your dog will also have a great time around the cottage. You can walk here without encountering any traffic. The garden is the place to picnic, cook and eat; barbecue and "dutch oven" are available. Two minutes by bike and you are in the middle of the mountain bike network of Westerwolde, with 200 kilometers of interconnected routes. Want culture or entertainment? Groningen is 40 minutes away.

The garden and the surrounding area were beautiful. We felt a sense of freedom and undisturbed peace throughout our entire stay. The cottage was cozy and decorated in a rustic style.
Unfortunately, the photos on the website no longer reflect the cottage’s current condition at all.Der Garten und die Umgebung waren wunderschön. Man hatte das Gefühl von Freiheit und ungestörte Ruhe während des gesamten Aufenthaltes. Das Häuschen war gemütlich und urig eingerichtet.
Die Bilder auf der Homepage entsprechen leider überhaupt nicht mehr dem aktuellen Zustand des Häuschens.The first impression was positive. But then we noticed the mess left by the previous guests, including empty wine bottles under the kitchen counter. Yellow-stained and worn-out mattresses, a moldy shower curtain, moldy silicone seals, and old mouse droppings next to the fireplace significantly dampened the vacation mood.
There were plenty of toys available, but almost all of them were incomplete. The grill was nice, but the grill grate was, unfortunately, completely rusted and filthy.
The chairs at the dining table, unfortunately, fell completely apart, and the chair legs couldn’t be screwed back together. We were afraid the chair would give way beneath us.Der erste Eindruck war positiv. Dann jedoch viel einem der Dreck der Vorgänger, inklusive leeren Weinflaschen unter der Küchenzeile auf. Gelb fleckige und durch gelegene Matratzen, ein schimmelnder Duschvorhang, sowie schimmelige Silikonleisten und alter Mäusekot neben dem Kamin trübten die Urlaubsstimmung erheblich.
Es gab viel Spielzeug in Angebot, davon war jedoch fast alles unvollständig. Der Grill war schön, das dazugehörige Grillrost leider völlig verrostet und total verdreckt.
Die Stühle am Esstisch vielen leider komplett auseinander und die Stuhlbeine ließen sich nicht wieder fest schrauben. Man hatte Angst, dass der Stuhl unter einem nach gibt.This text is automatically translated. -

It's really simple, but it has a great atmosphere!
Het is echt basic, maar zeer sfeervol!
It really is a truly beautiful place at the end of the world—that's how it feels.
Echt een hele prachtige plek aan het einde van de wereld, zo voelt het.

The house is quaint and special. We were prepared for that. Luckily we had nice weather the whole week, so we were only outside. In bad weather you could make yourself comfortable inside. However, there are a few small points that are only meant as positive criticism. The bathroom could do with a few hooks for towels and washing bag. The shower area is very special and you should think about ways to dry your laundry. The owner, Erik, is really nice and helped us immediately when we had a small problem. We would recommend it to people who are not into "zero eight fifteen". It's not for spoiled people who expect comfort and have a problem with small creepy-crawlies.
Das Haus ist urig und speziell. Darauf waren wir vorbereitet. Zum Glück hatten wir die ganze Woche schönes Wetter, so daß wir nur draußen waren. Bei schlechtem Wetter könnte man es sich drinnen gemütlich machen. Ein paar kleine Punkte Abzug, die nur als positive Kritik gemeint sind, gibt es aber doch. Das Bad könnte ein paar Haken für Handtücher und waschtasche gebrauchen. Der Duschbereich ist schon sehr speziell.
Man sollte über Möglichkeiten zum Wäsche trocknen nachdenken. Wäscheständer oder geschützt eine Leine mit klammern.
Erik, der Vermieter, ist total nett und hat sofort geholfen, als wir eine kleine Havarie hatten.
Wir würden es an Leute, die nicht auf "null acht fünfzehn" stehen weiter empfehlen. Für verwöhnte Menschen, die kompfort erwarten und mit kleinen krabbeltieren ein Problem haben, ist es eher nichts.Unique natural property in perfect natural surroundings. You could recharge your batteries here. And for the dogs it was a breath of freedom
Einmaliges Naturgrundstück in perfekter naturnaher Umgebung. Hier konnte man Energie tanken. Und für die Hunde war es ein Hauch von Freiheit
