Nature and surroundings

A nature house on an NSW estate where the outskirts of Barchem, Ruurlo, and Vorden meet. You’ll reach it via a dirt road and a small path through a private grove. The cottage features its own flower garden and two patios on a small, private yard. Enjoy the morning sun, the silence, and unobstructed views, or gaze out at a secluded meadow with animals. The private garden ensures complete privacy. Comfort, tranquility, and space are the focus here. There is ample parking for cars and a covered bike shed. The surrounding area is home to hares, roe deer, and many species of birds. “You can hear the silence.” Every walk or bike ride starts right at the door. You can walk straight into the “De Wiersse” estate or take a stroll to “Het Hagenbeek.” The cottage is still close to civilization: Ruurlo (5–10 minutes by car) offers supermarkets, a train station, Ruurlo Castle (Museum More), and more. Barchem? Just three kilometers away. Vorden, Lochem, and golf courses are seven kilometers away. All are accessible via back roads.

    The cottage—or let’s just call it a house—is fully equipped with all the amenities. It’s tastefully decorated and very well furnished. A lot of care has clearly gone into this: fresh flowers on the table as a welcome gesture, a jar of homemade jam—very thoughtful.
    Plus, the bedroom has good air conditioning, which is very welcome during this hot summer. But the house itself is actually wonderfully cool, too.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    This was our third visit to this place. Henny and Remco gave us such a warm welcome. It felt like coming home. This time we came by bike and went on so many beautiful rides. The location is perfect for that, with several great routes to choose from. The museums in Gorssel and Ruurlo, as well as the municipal museum in Zutphen, are all highly recommended—it’s a lovely bike ride there and back.

    A very beautiful, cozy little cottage. Everything you could possibly need (and much more) is provided in the cottage. Very friendly hosts—in short, a real treat.

What does “contactless stay” mean?
You can stay here without personal contact with the host, for example via a key safe or digital access. A contactless stay does not always have to be mandatory.
What does “Fireworks-free” mean?
The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation. You might occasionally hear some noise or see some light from fireworks set off outside the immediate area. It is important that you agree with the landlord on what you can expect.
