A detached bungalow of 105 square meters without wifi or TV channels. Thus, a real offline experience. A living room with open kitchen, equipped with stove, oven, washing machine and refrigerator. Infrared panels provide heating if desired. Annex to the living room a studio with wood stove. Firewood is included in the price. If you take the stairs up, you get to the floor where there are two bedrooms (one with waterbeds) and a bathroom. In front of the nature house you can enjoy the evening sun under the porch. If necessary, make a wood fire to add to the coziness and comfort. Dogs are welcome under supervision and leashed because of our dogs (they are also always inside or leashed) and cats, not to mention the sheep in the meadow on the estate.

Nature and surroundings

The nature house in Donkerbroek is located on the border of three old Frisian villages around the Duurswouder Heide: Wijnjewoude, Waskemeer and Donkerbroek. The Duurswouder Heide lies across the road. Over this heath, the largest in Friesland, you can walk directly through the woods to Bakkeveen or to the Jan Annebos with its idyllic Freulevijver. Also near Appelscha you can make beautiful walks in the Drents-Friese Wold. The cottage is also an ideal base for people who love cycling. On the border of the three northernmost provinces of the Netherlands is a good place to be and are in a circle of 15 kilometers around the nature house many nostalgic villages within reach, such as Beetsterzwaag, Oldeberkoop, Norg and Veenhuizen. For shopping you can go to Drachten or Oosterwolde. Bakkeveen and Donkerbroek have a small supermarket. Furthermore, you can reach the city of Groningen in half an hour by car. If you come by public transport, the landlords will gladly pick you up at a nearby NS station. They will be happy to mediate the rental of bicycles so that you too can be mobile in this remote spot.

    4.0/5

    For the second time this wonderful nature house booked for the period New Year's Eve, because of my dog who is afraid of fireworks. Unfortunately slightly more fireworks than expected but that will certainly be different next year. Certainly no regrets about the booking. The surroundings are beautiful. We had just spent a week working in the cold so this house was a pleasant luxury. So many books to read, the beautiful studio area with a warm stove, the whole atmosphere makes happy. Not the forget the waterbed, slept so well. Will definitely come back n again.

    An exquisite place, that's not a word too many.

    Nature, peace & environment:
    5.0/5

    A house where we immediately felt at home, where there was everything we needed, books enough for a much longer stay, plenty of space and yet security around us, inside and outside. Peace, nature (forest, heath, fens) directly across the road, and the Frisian Woods have much more to offer within cycling distance.
