Dutch owners who speak German. After canoeing, biking, or hiking, it’s wonderful to come home to this half-timbered cottage from 1830 (!). A carefully restored cottage for two people, measuring 20 m². This luxurious hiking cabin/nature house features an open floor plan with a dining area and a simple kitchen equipped with a sink (cold water supplied in jerry cans), a single-burner induction cooktop, a coffee maker, an electric kettle, etc., and a separate sitting area. (The surprisingly luxurious private shower and toilet are located in the former stable.) A wooden staircase leads up to the open sleeping loft with a double bed featuring two comfortable mattresses. Gaze at the stars from your bed. Enjoy breakfast on the terrace or watch the sunset from the spacious, covered porch. You can use the other seating areas on the property to watch birds and wildlife. You can barbecue on the large terrace or in your own yard. Or you can read, daydream, or play a board game. Internet access on the terrace. Bicycles or motorcycles can be stored in the garage.

Nature and surroundings

The nature house is located on a narrow country road on the outskirts of the village of Osterwald, in Grafschaft Bentheim, on the grounds of a former farm, near the border with the Netherlands. Want to cross the border several times on a single hike? Check out the Podagristenpad and the Grafschafter Spurensuche. Places like Münster, Bad Bentheim, Nordhorn, Ootmarsum, and Enschede—with plenty of historical sites, unique shops, and streams—are nearby. Things to do from Hof Roseboom: your nature house is located right on cycling and hiking trails; you can go canoeing on the Dinkel or Vechte rivers; visit the Nordhorn Zoo, Bad Bentheim Castle, Uelsen, the historic town of Neuenhaus, the Emsland Moor Museum, Bourtanger Moor Nature Park, Singraven Castle in Denekamp, and the art town of Ootmarsum. You can also go swimming in Neuenhaus for a very low price, starting as early as 7:00 a.m.! Cycling and hiking routes, as well as brochures, are ready and waiting for you!

    It was wonderful during these hot days! Sitting in the shade with a cool breeze, on the patio, looking out from the barley field at the spotted flycatchers, and listening to the quail calling in the evening.

    We celebrated our wedding anniversary in the bakery and really enjoyed the natural surroundings. The landlady is super friendly and we were greeted and bid farewell with fresh eggs from the farm's own hens. We would love to come back. Just the right place to relax and feel close to nature. Best regards Christina and Marcel.

    Good service

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    We stayed for a week in the bakery of Rina and Peter Jan. Made very nice bike rides via junctions to surrounding towns and villages. We were warmly welcomed with fresh eggs from their own chickens. The chickens kept us company during our stay, which gave a very nice atmosphere. We had a lot of privacy and could always contact them. It was clear to see that she herself also enjoyed when the guests are having a good time.

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.
