Nature house in Stroe
Gelderland, Netherlands
- 5 persons
- 2 bedrooms
- Pets allowed
The attractive, picturesque nature house is located in the vast forest and heathland area of Boswachterij Kootwijk (5000 hectares) on the west side of the Stroeërheide. Here you really go back to basics, so do not expect luxury accommodation. The furnishings are dated to create a real hut atmosphere. The attic is not suitable for the elderly. The cabin is located in the northwestern part of the forestry, in a private forest plot of over five acres that is closed to the public. Wild boar, deer and red deer also use it. It is a unique opportunity for the true nature lover to spend an unforgettable vacation. The cabin has a sitting area with natural stone fireplace and wood stove, a dining and kitchen area with sink, gas stove, geyser and small refrigerator, an open sleeping loft for two people and a double bedroom. There is also a bathroom with shower, sink and toilet. In the kitchenette there are plenty of pans, cutlery and crockery. Lighting is provided by a solar panel (12V) and kerosene lamps. On the lawn in front of the cottage there is a barbecue area and picnic bench. Garden chairs are available. A maximum of two additional persons can be booked. The loft is not suitable for the elderly or people with mobility problems. It is about "hut on the heath" for lovers who seek this and is thus the only one within middle Veluwe. As in the village of Stroe, you can hear (depending on wind direction) the distant road and train. Note: for reservation in the next year is again possible from November 1.
Nature and surroundings
As of May 2007, this the forest plot has been designated as an official estate under the Natural Beauty Act. You can walk, bike and unwind in the area, enjoying the beautiful nature. It is located in the closed wildlife area, which has the consequence that deer, red deer and wild boar can occur up to near the nature house. Dogs are allowed, but you must respect the presence of (coarse) game with, especially in spring, required peace and quiet.

The cabin's interior is really charming; you really feel like you're in a hunter's cabin, and that sets the mood.
The cabin's owner is friendly and easy to reach.De inrichting van de hut is bijzonder leuk, je begeeft je echt in een jagershutje en dat maakt de sfeer.
Eigenaar van de hut is vriendelijk, en goed bereikbaar.A beautiful place to truly unwind. If you like to get back to basics, this is the ideal place to go. Our dog also had a great time here and felt right at home as soon as we arrived.
Peace, nature, birds—it was perfect!
Unfortunately, due to the unusually hot weather, we didn’t see any wildlife. But despite that, we enjoyed the lawn in front of the house, the sounds of birds, young birds of prey, and in the evenings, a spectacular display in the sky of bats, both large and small.Prachtige plek om heerlijk tot rust te komen. Als je van back tot basic houd is dit de ideale plek om heen te gaan. Ook onze hond heeft hier kunnen genieten en was direct bij aankomst helemaal op zijn plek.
Rust, natuur, vogels het was perfect!
Jammer genoeg door het abnormale warme weer geen wild gezien. Maar ondanks dat hebben we genoten op het grasveld voor het huis, van de vogel geluiden , jonge roofvogels en in de avonden een heel spektakel in de lucht van vleermuizen van groot tot klein.This text is automatically translated. -

Just as amazing as you think it's going to be
Net zo geweldig als je denkt dat het gaat zijn
The surroundings were amazing—I saw a baby wild boar, enjoyed the hike, and had a wonderful time sitting by the campfire
Geniale omgeving, ik heb een baby wild zwijn gezien, genoten van het wandelen en heerlijk bij het kampvuur gezeten
