An extremely friendly owner.
Een buitengewoon vriendelijke eigenaresse.
1st surprise: a beautiful purple (heather), green (many kinds of trees and shrubs) terrain where after a gravel path is the 2nd surprise. 2: a cute 8-cornered house, cozy, cared for with all the trimmings, where you first rest with coffee or tea that very thoughtfully is already ready. Look around, windows on 8 sides, nature meets you everywhere. You immediately feel embraced by kindness and nature, the silence and peace you are looking for. The early morning with dew and waking birds in otherwise dead silence, so serene. After a walk resting in the lake house by its own little lake, taking some laps with dragonflies and croaking frogs around you. Is the evening a little chilly, then there is a wood stove next to the underfloor heating to keep the atmosphere 100% until the last moment, before you dive into the lovely bed. Here I want to stay longer, here I want to be more often! I will definitely come back!
1e verrassing: een prachtig paars (heide), groen (veel soorten bomen en struiken) terrein waar na een grindpaadje de 2e verrassing staat. 2: een snoezig 8-hoekig huisje, knus, verzorgd met alles erop en eraan, waar je eerst even uitrust met koffie of thee die heel attent al klaar staat. Kijk rond, aan 8 zijden ramen, overal komt de natuur je tegemoet. Je voelt je direct omarmd door vriendelijkheid en natuur, de stilte en de rust waar je naar op zoek bent. De vroege ochtend met dauw en wakker wordende vogels in verder doodse stilte, zo sereen. Na een wandeling uitrusten in het meerhuisje aan het eigen meertje, wat baantjes trekken met libellen en kwakende kikkers om je heen. Is de avond wat kil, dan is er naast de vloerverwarming een houtkacheltje om de sfeer tot het laatste moment 100% te houden, voor je het heerlijke bed induikt. Hier wil ik langer blijven, hier wil ik vaker zijn! Ik kom zeker terug!

How fantastic the environment was and how we enjoyed nature, how sparse the cottage was. It is 1 space for sleeping and living. There are two loose chairs that are not really comfortable because the cushions have sagged. There are no cabinets to store clothes except for a few dressers, so we laid out our clothes on the dining table and on the dresser by the foot of the bed. The bathroom/toilet is really super small and again without cabinets. The kitchen, again without cabinets, so really just a countertop, has a two-burner stove, so cooking is quite difficult. The refrigerator is low and very small (minibar size) so there was almost nothing in it. Furthermore, the description said there was a fishing pond, but that turned out not to be the case. So fishing gear brought for nothing. In addition, in the house which is on the property there is a dog that often barks, so our dogs went every time to see where this barking came from.
Hoe fantastisch de omgeving was en hoe wij hebben genoten van de natuur, hoe karig het huisje was. Het is 1 ruimte om te slapen en te leven. Er staan twee losse stoelen die niet echt comfortabel zitten doordat de kussens zijn doorgezakt. Er zijn op een paar ladekastjes na geen kasten om kleding in op te bergen, waardoor wij onze kleding hebben uitgestald op de eettafel en op het ladekastje bij het voeteneind van het bed. De badkamer/ wc is echt superklein en wederom zonder kastjes.
De keuken, wederom zonder kastjes, dus eigenlijk gewoon een aanrechtblad, heeft een tweepits kookstel, dus koken is best lastig. De koelkast is laag en heel klein (formaat minibar) waardoor er bijna niets in kon.
Verder stond er in de omschrijving dat er een visvijver was, maar dat bleek niet het geval te zijn. Dus visspullen voor niets meegenomen. Daarnaast zit er in het huis wat op het terrein staat een hond die vaak blaft, waardoor onze honden elke keer gingen kijken waar dit geblaf vandaan kwam.Was wonderfully quiet and very private. We saw no people and the area is great. Supermarket in Sellingen which is easy to bike. Really fantastic. However, the grounds are not enclosed so our dogs could not really run free as I had thought.
Was heerlijk rustig en zeer privé. We hebben geen mensen gezien en de omgeving is geweldig. Supermarkt in Sellingen wat makkelijk te fietsen is. Echt fantastisch. Het terrein is echter niet afgesloten dus onze honden kon niet echt vrij rondlopen zoals ik had gedacht.

Unfortunately the swimming pond was full of mosquito larvae, not wise to go swimming in it, also chance of blue-green algae due to stagnant water. In April May and June better suited in my opinion. I was there from Friday to Monday. Too bad there was no extra kitchen textiles. 1 Dishcloth and tea towel is too little for 3 days. Otherwise only positive experience. Sat in the morning at half past 7 already outside the coffee, enjoyed it. Response landlord: Dear Hetty, "Great to hear that you had such a nice stay and are so satisfied! I can address your concerns about the water. It is fully controlled water with a pumping system, which ensures that new fresh groundwater continuously flows into the pond. In addition, it is drained regularly with our pumping system. Twice a week the water quality is checked. See photo at end of ad how we perform a total cleaning biannually. ''
Helaas de zwemvijver zat vol muggenlarven, niet verstandig om er in te gaan zwemmen, ook kans op blauwalg ivm stilstaand water. In april mei en juni beter geschikt naar mijn mening. Ik was er van vrijdag tot maandag. Jammer dat er geen extra keuken textiel was. 1 Vaatdoek en theedoek is te weinig voor 3 dagen. Verder alleen maar positieve ervaring. Zat ' s morgens om half 8 al buiten aan de koffie, heerlijk genoten.
Reactie verhuurder:
Beste Hetty,
''Fijn te horen dat je zo'n fijn verblijf hebt gehad en zo tevreden bent! Ik kan je zorgen wegnemen over het water. Het is volledig gecontroleerd water met een pompsysteem, dat ervoor zorgt dat er continue nieuw vers grondwater in de vijver stroomt. Daarnaast wordt het regelmatig leeggezogen met ons pompsysteem. Twee wekelijks wordt de waterkwaliteit gecontroleerd. Zie foto aan einde advertentie hoe wij tweejaarlijkse een totale reiniging uitvoeren. ''Cozy and cozy. Heather in full bloom. Enjoyed the tranquility. As soon as I entered I was surprised and thought what a nice cozy cottage.
Knus en gezellig. Heide vol in bloei. Heb genoten van de rust. Gelijk toen ik er binnen kwam was ik verrast en dacht wat een leuk knus huisje.
