Nature house in Papenvoort
Drenthe, Netherlands
- 2 persons
- 1 bedroom
- Pets allowed
A simple sleeper car, but with all the bells and whistles. Like a refrigerator, electric heating, and a double bed. And plenty of privacy. And, of course, your own fire pit and covered outdoor seating area. Simply a wonderful place to unwind. And to wake up early in the morning to the sound of birds singing.
Nature and surroundings
Papenvoort is located in the least densely populated part of the Netherlands: the triangle between Rolde, Borger, and Gieten. It’s an incredibly beautiful, wooded area with many lakes suitable for swimming, such as the Nije Hemelriek, 4.5 kilometers away near Gasselte. Drentsche Aa National Park is also nearby, as is Assen, the capital of the province of Drenthe. The Mariahoeve is situated in the middle of the Hondsrug, a geologically unique ridge formed by the ice ages that stretches from Emmen to the city of Groningen. The Hondsrug, together with part of the surrounding area, forms the only Geopark in the Netherlands. The area consists of coniferous and deciduous forests, small marshes, meadows, picturesque esdorp villages, streams, burial mounds, shifting sands, imposing beech avenues, heathlands, and farmlands, and is ideal for nature lovers who appreciate peace and open spaces. There is an extensive network of cycling, horseback riding, and hiking trails. We are also an ideal base from which to explore the rest of Drenthe.

Great campsite, not suitable for everyone, lots of little critters if you sit under/between the trees. Toilet is outside in a wooden cabinet, Toilet bucket you must empty yourself behind the toilet building, minute walk I found it a super nature campground
Geweldige camping, niet voor iedereen geschikt, veel kleine beestjes als je onder/tussen de bomen zit. Toilet zit buiten in een houten kast, Toilet emmer moet je zelf legen achter het toilet gebouw, minuutje wandelen
Ik vond het een super natuur campingNice train wagon, as described, sober, sweet seat and curtains,
Leuke trein wagon, als omschreven, sober, lief zitje en gordijntjes,

Really beautiful
Wirklich schön
It was beautiful, we could watch the sunset through the leaves, were allowed to make a small campfire and slept peacefully. It was relaxing and a great experience at the same time.
Es war wunderschön, wir konnten den Sonnenuntergang durch die Blätter beobachten, durften ein kleines Lagerfeuer machen und haben schön ruhig geschlafen.
Es war Erholung und ein tolles Erlebnis zugleich.This text is automatically translated.
