This luxury, sustainably built, nature house is very rural in central Groningen in the hamlet De Paauwen. The nature house is located behind the house of the owners with its own entrance and a beautiful view over the countryside towards the Schildmeer. The quiet road is a dead end. The chalet is located between the Schildmeer and the nature reserve 't Roegwold. Walking and cycling routes start at the door. The 45 m2 offers space for 2 people and has a living room with well-equipped kitchen, bathroom with shower and separate toilet and bedroom with a large box spring bed. With the two pairs of French doors and the terrace you always have opportunities to sit outside. Enjoy the tranquility, beautiful views and sunrises. You spend the night in a wonderfully quiet environment and wake up to the happy chirping of birds. Because owners own cats, dogs are unfortunately not welcome.
Nature and surroundings
The nature house borders the nature reserve 't Roegwold, which is characterized by an alternation of open water, grasslands, ruggedness, (reed) marsh and small woods. It stretches from Kolham to the Schildmeer. There are 40 kilometers of hiking and biking trails here and a "bat path" where you can walk on water. The trail map is waiting for you. The area is also known for its special plants and insect species, as well as rare bird species that attract bird watchers from all over the country. The Schildmeer is 4 kilometers by bike. Here you can canoe, sail or enjoy one of the terraces of the various catering establishments. On the south shore of the Schildmeer you will find the 9-hole golf course Duurswold. The city of Groningen is a 15-minute drive away. From here you can also easily spend a day in Germany or one of the Wadden Islands. Supermarket at 5 km in Schildwolde.

Everything was there, and it was clean and spacious.
Alles was aanwezig en proper en ruim.
Beautifully situated in the middle of the fields, with lots of birds and a stunning view. The cottage was just fine—it had everything we could have wanted.
Mooi gelegen midden en de velden veel vogels prachtig zicht. Het huisje was dik in orde alles wat we maar konden wensen.

One minor drawback: because of the rural setting, we had some trouble with insects and flies, despite the sturdy window screens.
Klein minpuntje: door de landelijke omgeving hebben we, ondanks de degelijke horren, wat last gehad van insecten/vliegen.
The cottage is situated in a beautiful, peaceful spot with sweeping views of the meadows. You can practically feel the silence.
Inside, the furnishings are exceptionally well-equipped; every detail has been taken care of.
The seating and the bed are comfortable.Het huisje ligt op een prachtige, rustige plek met ruim uitzicht op weiland. De stilte is voelbaar.
Binnen is de inrichting bijzonder compleet, aan alles is gedacht.
De zitmeubelen en bed zijn comfortabel.This text is automatically translated. -

Hardly anything to complain about. We had a wonderful time!
Weinig op of aan te merken. We hebben hele fijne dagen gehad!
We were warmly welcomed by Trees and Dirk Jan.
What a neat and clean little house—everything was furnished with care, and they’d thought of everything!
All the windows had great screens, the bed was comfortable, the lounge chairs were very nice, and it was very quiet and dark at night. We stayed there during the heat wave, but with the air conditioning, it was perfectly comfortable. What a luxury—if only we had that at home. We really enjoyed the beautiful view, the peace and quiet, the lovely garden, the barn swallows, and all the other many birds around the cottage. We were able to observe and study them with the binoculars and bird guidebook provided in the cottage. We were able to use two bicycles, which was really nice. Unfortunately, we had to adjust our plans a bit because of the heat. But the Schildmeer, just around the corner and within biking distance, offered a nice way to cool off. For bird lovers and those seeking peace and quiet, this cottage is definitely highly recommended.We werden hartelijk ontvangen door Trees en Dirk Jan.
Wat een keurig en schoon huisje, alles met zorg ingericht, aan alles was gedacht!
Alle ramen hadden een prima hor, het bed lag goed, de relaxed stoelen waren erg fijn, het was heel stil en donker 's nachts. We verbleven er tijdens de hittegolf, maar met de airco was het prima toeven. Wat een luxe, hadden we dat thuis maar. We hebben erg genoten van het mooie uitzicht, de rust, de mooie tuin, de boerenzwaluwen en alle andere vele vogels rond het huisje. Welke je mooi kon observeren en onderzoeken met de verrekijker + vogelboekje welke aanwezig waren in het huisje. We mochten gebruik maken van 2 fietsen, dat was heel erg fijn. Door de warmte helaas onze plannen wat moeten aanpassen. Maar het schildmeer om de hoek op fietsafstand bood fijne verkoeling. Voor liefhebbers van vogels en rust is dit huisje zeker een aanrader.This text is automatically translated.
