This nature house made of wood hides in the greenery of the surrounding forest. Four French doors open from the living room onto a spacious and partially covered terrace, where garden furniture is set up. The cozy living room measures about 25 m² of oak flooring. Two comfortable two-seater sofas and an armchair form -in addition to a coffee table and secretary- the main part of the furniture. Furthermore, a large TV and WiFi connection. The kitchen and dining area form a common space. The kitchen cabinets contain everything you need to make a tasty meal. A countertop with a four-burner stove, combination microwave, dishwasher, kettle, hand blender, Senseo coffee maker and fridge-freezer provide technical support. The shower and toilet facilities are recent and neat. A washing machine and condenser dryer are located in the hallway leading to the bedrooms. There are two bedrooms. Heating of the house is done by four gas wall heaters, allowing the house to be pleasantly heated in winter. Hot water supply via a boiler. To protect the forest and the house, it is not allowed to use a coal barbecue or fire basket. However, an electric or gas barbecue is allowed (bring your own).
Nature and surroundings
Oak, beech, birch, larch, spruce and Scots pine line the upper reaches of the forest, and the ground cover consists of blueberry, mosses, ferns, brambles and grasses. In between you will then find currants, holly, laurel, honeysuckle and rowan. Especially in spring, a sensuous concert of the bird population present can be heard every day. Blackbird, great thrush, song thrush, various species of titmice, robin, pied flycatcher, goldcrest, wren, golden oriole, chaffinch, blackhead and nuthatch engage in a melodious battle with each other. If you provide the feeding table with small pieces of cheese and bread as well as some seed, peanuts and fat balls in the winter, you can expect visits from tits, finches, blackbirds, nuthatches, woodpigeons, woodpeckers and jays in no time, but you can also spot treecreepers with some regularity. Less frequently you will see long-eared and tawny owl, buzzard, merlin, sparrowhawk and hawk. In winter there are often visits from siskins, greenfinches, yellowhammers and sometimes a pair of goldfinches. With any luck, a toad, green frog, hazelworm, grass snake, lizard or salamander can be discovered.

No comments on this lovely little house.
Geen opmerkingen voor dit mooie huisje.
This was our third time staying at this very beautiful cottage, equipped with all the amenities. It’s very peaceful, surrounded by nature. Once again, we enjoyed seeing all the animals roaming around the cottage—from foxes to pine martens, and from little wood mice to stone martens. And the beautiful birds that came to eat. For us, this is a truly wonderful place to be at one with nature. We’re already looking for a date in September for next year so we can enjoy this beautiful spot all over again.
Voor de derde keer waren wij in dit zeer mooie huisje met alle gemakken voorzien. Zeer rustig, midden in de natuur. Wederom genoten van alle dieren die er om het huisje liepen van de vos tot de boommarter. Van het kleine bosmuisje tot de steenmarter. De prachtige vogels die kwamen eten. Voor ons is dit een super mooie plek om één te zijn met de natuur. Voor volgend jaar zoeken we alweer naar de datum in September. Om weer te genieten van deze mooie plek.

Since I weigh almost 100 kg and am about 1.90 mtr tall, I had a bit of trouble getting into—and especially out of—the bed, given the limited space in the bedroom. Other than that, everything was great!!
Daar ik bijna 100 kg weeg en ongeveer 1,90 mtr lang ben, had ik gezien de beperkte ruimte in de slaapkamer wat moeite om in maar zeker om uit het bed te kunnen komen. Voor de rest was alles prima!!
You can completely unwind in a setting surrounded by nature. The presence of various birds and squirrels, in particular, was the icing on the cake.
Je komt geheel tot rust in een omgeving omringt door de natuur. Vooral de aanwezigheid van diverse vogels en eekhoorns was de kers op de taart.

It's an old house and poorly maintained, judging by the furniture and floors in the bedroom.
You can't get dressed or undressed in the bathroom—it's very small.
There's a very musty smell when you walk in.
The garden is overgrown; some of the shrubs could use a trim.oudbolig en slechtonderhouden als je kijkt naar de meubels en de vloeren in de slaapkamer.
Je kunt je niet aan en uitkleden in de badkamer, erg klein.
Bij binnenkomst erg muffen lucht.
Een verwilderde tuin, sommige struiken mogen wel een snoeibeurt.This text is automatically translated.
