Next to our farm is the log cabin, which used to be used for summer cooking and eating. When we started remodeling in the farmhouse, we set up the log cabin for a comfortable temporary residence. It has since become a fun, sustainable nature house with simple amenities. We recently added an outhouse with a bathroom. The log cabin is located approximately opposite the farm entrance. The ground floor (about 13 m2) has everything for 2-4 people: sofa bed, cooking utensils, etc. In the attic (accessible with a pull-out ladder) there is a good single bed with a single trundle bed. Mosquito nets are provided for all beds. The small windows and the durable insulation downstairs (pavatex and clay stucco) keep it cool in summer. Because both the farmhouse and the log cabin are national monuments, nothing has been changed on the outside. We rent from 1 person, up to 4 people is possible for an additional amount per person.

Nature and surroundings

Farmhouse and stookhut are located on a farm strip outside the beautiful village of Thesinge, and 12 km from the center of Groningen. The garden and the place on the farm-side of the log cabin can be used for walking, sitting, playing, picking fruit, boating or swimming in the pond. 1200 m away is public transportation, and a bike path goes through the farmlands to City or Ommeland. The Jacob path runs along our farm. The approximately 40 ha Ten Boersterbos, in which a hidden picking garden, is within walking distance. The land in the area is mostly pasture where sometimes cows or sheep walk. An organic farmer has varying crops and often sows colorful, bird- and insect-friendly field edges. On the way to the city of Groningen you pass the Liberation Forest, and through Kardinge, where you can swim in the Zilvermeer, or in sports center Kardinge. A little further on is Natuurbad Engelbert, and a beach at Meerstad.

    I did not feel welcome at all. Had no internet so that's why nellian had to come but was never greeted and also the man of the house went into the barn when I came into yard after walk. No goodnight wishes... No, via mail I had imagined they were hospitable but the opposite was true. And tis not a nice feeling if you are somewhere with a feeling you are not welcome ... Was later than said but previous tenant was still there. ... H Only the floor was clean, otherwise not. In toilet building the floor was flooded with rain, but did not report it since you feel "awkward" if you have to ring the bell. So have also done with the Internet and firelighters but through the mail. No never before experienced that you are not greeted and a pleasant stay wished. Really were very unpleasant days ... Fortunately for next year I can book something where I have been more often and certainly have a good feeling and feel welcome. Friend said, this is rude behavior rented

    Rest good. Cottage not clean. Only floor was clean. Kitchen was really packed. Very untidy. Not as neat as the pictures on the website.

    Unfortunately, the WiFi turned out to be very weak and barely usable. There was a senseo in the pictures, but there were pads but no senseo. Other than that, nice clean sheets and tea well provided.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    For a log cabin big, for 2 adults small, but just right. Because you have to go through the cold to toilet and shower, we hardly used them....

    Lovely quiet environment.

    Small house and well-equipped kitchen. A slanted floor which was felt in my balance organ after a few days. The stove is difficult to adjust. Quickly too hot. Not super bad,though.
