This nature house is located on a small park with four detached houses, right on the Drentsche Aa. The houses are lined up along the stream, so each house has an unobstructed view of the Aa. The company has existed since 1927 and has passed from father to son. The son is now in charge and his father still helps out. The houses are in the middle of the Stroomdal Drentsche Aa nature reserve. With a very long fishing rod you can fish almost from your house. There is a possibility to rent all four houses, for example for a family reunion. In late summer and autumn the hosts also have mushroom days for learning to recognize and prepare edible mushrooms. Upon request, they can also organize game picking trips and a bird watching excursion. Pets are allowed and free, provided they behave nicely and do not cause a nuisance. It is a very spacious and comfortable nature house. The nature house is suitable for six people.

Nature and surroundings

The Stroomdal van de Drentsche Aa nature reserve is part of the much larger national park National stream and esdorpenlandschap Drentsche Aa, approximately 15,000 hectares in size. The small-scale recreation park is virtually on the Pieterpad and the area is perfect for taking short and long walks and bike rides through the beautiful nature. In the Aa you can swim and canoe. The park borders a moorland with a sand drift and here dogs are also allowed to run free. Within walking distance of about 10 minutes is the first archaeological reserve of the Netherlands with dolmens, burial mounds and cart tracks. The size is about 300 hectares. Dogs are allowed along, but on a leash. Nearby is a part where dogs are allowed to run loose. Furthermore, the cottage is located against moors and forests. You can walk for hours without having to cross a major road. By car you can be in Assen or Groningen in 20 minutes. The poems of Rutger Kopland (1934-2012) about the Drentsche Aa originated largely on this spot.

    The cottage is in a beautiful location. It’s clean, and everything you need is provided.
    The cottage could use a refresh, including the bedding and linens.
    If you want a double bed, you’ll have to use the box bed, which does require some flexibility.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    The cottage is beautifully situated on the Drentse Aa. From there, you can go on wonderful hikes and enjoy some great cycling. Even though it was summer vacation, it was wonderfully peaceful.

    There are several cottages, this opinion is about one cottage.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Fantastic location in a bend of the Drenthse Aa. The cottage is located on a small park, and is fully equipped. With cool furniture, underfloor heating for chilly days and nice detail: in our house was also a bed box. The administrators are nice people, you feel welcome. On the site itself there are two canoes available and there is a mini-canoe for a dip in the water. The cottage is located in the Nature Park Drenthse Aa and you walk and cycle right into nature. We had a great time!
