Welcome to the northernmost nature house on the Dutch mainland! Built in 1932 but completely renovated inside while maintaining its authentic atmosphere. The living room is bright and has wide views of the Lauwerpolder. The open kitchen and large dining table invite you to long and cozy meals. There is a small library and many (outdoor) toys for children of all ages. The downstairs bedroom has large patio doors to the terrace, where you look out over an expansive lawn with chestnuts and fruit trees. The spacious bathroom offers a bathtub, a separate rain shower and a toilet. Upstairs are two cozy bedrooms with old wooden cockerel beams and beds with lovely mattresses. The nature house served as a worker's cottage well into the last century. The lady of the house took care of the sheep, her husband worked for the farmer. Feel at home in their house and enjoy the peace, the Wad and nature!
Nature and surroundings
The nature house is located in a two-acre green oasis in the typical Groninger polder landscape right next to the Wadden Sea. Reclaimed in 1892 and for a long time a meadow with sheep, it has now become a mini-wilderness, where you wake up to a cacophony of birdsong and bleating sheep on the sea dike. There is often a jump of deer to be seen and you might even spot the Groningen Big Five: roe, fox, hare, buzzard and pheasant! Several paths lead you to a large pond, gnarled pollard willows and other unexpected discoveries such as the old dobbe, a watering place for sheep. A true Mecca for birdwatchers and nowhere in the Netherlands can you see more stars than in this beautiful place!

A truly lovely house in a very special location. Beautiful natural surroundings! The owner gave us lots of great tips, so we had a wonderful time.
Een ontzettend fijn huis op een hele bijzondere plek. Natuurpracht! De eigenaar geeft allemaal fijne tips, zodat we een heerlijke tijd hebben gehad.
What a house! What a place! If you want to feel like you're all alone in the world for a moment, go here! Beautiful clouds, fawns, hares, birds of prey, and the Wadden Sea right in the backyard. Absolutely stunning!
Wat een huis! Wat een plek! Als je je even alleen op de wereld wilt voelen, ga hierheen! Prachtige wolkenpartijen, reetjes, hazen, roofvogels, de waddenzee in de achtertuin. Prachtig!

The contact with the owner was fantastic. Appen, and practically instant reply back. There is plenty of wood for the wood stove (which we will also purchase). WOW!!!

Wat een geweldige en rustgevende plek, ver van de bewoonde wereld.
