Pets not allowed
The sustainably built nature house has a regional Saxon facade. At the back is a covered terrace. The cottage is located in the attractive yard of a residential farm. The kitchen, walk-in shower and toilet are on the ground floor. The living room is sunken into the yard. This allows you to watch birds scurrying around at eye level. On the first floor you will find two bedrooms. One spacious bedroom with a double twin box spring. The second bedroom has two single beds. The nature house stands in a small orchard. In spring the fruit trees are in bloom and in autumn you can pick more apples and pears than you can eat. There are many cycling and walking routes. Nice places like Borculo, Diepenheim, Markelo and Lochem can be reached by bike. Outside you may smoke quietly, inside you may not. Unfortunately no pets can be brought, so no smoking pets either.
Nature and surroundings
Surrounding the yard are two wooded banks in which hawthorn hedges have been planted, among other things. The flowers in the yard attract many butterflies. In the yard you can often see birds such as pheasants, jays, wagtails, great tits, goldfinches, goldfinches, green and spotted woodpeckers, kestrels, buzzards, barn owls, long-eared owls and little owls. Every year barn swallows nest in the barn across from the nature house. Egrets, hares and deer sometimes walk just outside the yard. The woods of Westerflier Estate can be seen from the cottage. We ourselves like to cycle over the Twentekanaaldijk to Lochem. Over the whole length you cycle through woods (never wind against).

AstridAugust 7, 2025General rating:
The cottage has everything you need to have a nice stay. The owners are incredibly friendly with tips for walks/activities.
Het huisje beschikt over alles om een fijn verblijf te hebben. De eigenaren zijn ontzettend vriendelijk met tips voor wandelingen/activiteiten.
Nature, peace & environment:Beautiful surroundings. Nice walks and cycling. The nature house was very nice, with a lovely large garden and an extra piece of land where everything (delicious) grows and can be discovered.
Een prachtige omgeving. Lekker gewandeld en gefietst. Het natuurhuisje was heel fijn, met een heerlijke grote tuin en nog een extra stuk land waar van alles (lekkers) groeit en te ontdekken valt.

Takes some getting used to, being close to a through road.
Even wennen, dat het dicht aan een doorgaande weg ligt.
Nature, peace & environment:Fine cottage, everything fine.
Fijn huisje, alles prima in orde.

There is sleeping space for 4 people upstairs, there were two of us so plenty of room. There are screens everywhere except the door to the garden. Downstairs in the kitchen is a bit narrower because of the picnic set, but that can also be put outside in the garden. Fine dining table with enough chairs. There is no oven, but there is a microwave. There are 2 sofas and also 2 single chairs. Nice that there was a mosquito tent in the orchard. This was necessary when sitting outside.
Er is boven slaapplaats voor 4 personen, wij waren met zijn tweeën dus ruimte genoeg. Overal zijn horren behalve bij de deur naar de tuin. Beneden in de keuken is het wat smaller door de picknickset, maar die kan ook naar buiten gezet worden in de tuin. Fijne eettafel met voldoende stoelen. Er is geen oven, wel een magnetron. Er zijn 2 banken en ook nog 2 losse stoelen.
Fijn dat er een muggentent was in de boomgaard. Dat was wel nodig als je buiten zat.Nature, peace & environment:Nice and quiet detached conservatory-style light residence located on an old orchard. Living room is slightly sunken, giving a nice view of the orchard grass. Fine beds, quiet surroundings. Nature in the neighborhood is very beautiful and varied to explore by bike. You can also visit various places like Diepenheim, Lochem, Holten, Deventer and Zutphen. M.n. the picnic set in the kitchen and later the ride through the garden with it on the narrow gauge railroad with Guido as driver is really very unique and special! This we will not soon forget! Friendly owners! Nice that there was a bike available. The other bike we rented.
Mooi en rustig gelegen vrijstaand serre-achtig licht verblijf gelegen aan een oud boomgaardje. Woonkamer is enigszins verdiept, waardoor je leuk op het gras van de boomgaard kunt kijken. Prima bedden, rustige omgeving. Natuur in de buurt is erg mooi en afwisselend om per fiets te verkennen. Ook kun je diverse plaatsjes bezoeken zoals Diepenheim, Lochem, Holten, Deventer en Zutphen.
M.n. de picknickset in de keuken en later de rit door de tuin ermee over het smalspoor met Guido als machinist is echt heel uniek en bijzonder! Dit vergeten we niet snel meer! Vriendelijke eigenaren! fijn dat er een fiets aanwezig was. De andere fiets hebben we gehuurd.This text is automatically translated.
