Capcabin: Whether you’re relaxing on the veranda or on the sunken lounge sofa with a view of the beautiful Drenthe countryside, you can enjoy your latte macchiato, your favorite drink, or a BBQ on the Basterd. You’ll sleep in a comfortable double Auping bed, with bed linens included. This nature house is located on the outskirts of the village and within walking distance of the center, which features a supermarket, bakery, restaurants, and an ice cream parlor. This nature house is unique in Europe and can best be described as a combination of a “Tiny house” and a safari tent. The tent houses are produced and operated as sustainably as possible. The “Tiny house” is fully insulated (floor, walls, and roof), has triple-pane windows, air conditioning that can heat in the winter and cool in the summer, and features a fully equipped kitchen and bathroom. In short, it’s comfortable in both summer and winter.
Nature and surroundings
Odoorn is located on the Hondsrug in Drenthe. There are several nature reserves on the Hondsrug and, consequently, around Odoorn. Directly north of Odoorn—which the tent house overlooks—lies the Odoornerdennen. This forest is situated on a former sand drift. It was originally planted by farmers to put an end to the nuisance caused by drifting sand on their fields. Now it is a beautiful and diverse nature reserve. In various places, there are still stunning heathlands with large juniper bushes. These areas used to be too hilly to cultivate. Just past Odoorn lies the UNESCO Global Geopark. Here, the story is told of the unique landscape of East Drenthe, with a history dating back to the Ice Age, when ice and meltwater shaped the landscape of ridges and stream valleys dotted with numerous boulders from Scandinavia. These boulders were used 5,000 years ago by the Hunebed builders to construct their burial monuments, which we now call hunebeds.

The CapCabin feels cozy and has everything you need, including a well-equipped kitchen. You can sit comfortably both inside and outside, enjoying the peace and quiet and the unobstructed view.
De CapCabin voelt knus en heeft alles wat je nodig hebt, inclusief een goed uitgeruste keuken. Je kunt er binnen en buiten comfortabel zitten, genieten van de rust en het vrije uitzicht.
We were looking for a place to recharge surrounded by nature, and we succeeded 100%. One morning, we even woke up to see deer right outside our door. You can easily walk into the woods along an unpaved path, and there are also many beautiful hiking trails in the area.
We zochten een plekje om op te laden in de natuur, en dat is 100% gelukt. Een ochtend werden we zelfs wakker met hertjes voor de deur. Je loopt zo over een onverhard pad het bos in en ook in de buurt zijn veel mooie wandelroutes.

A really nice cabin—it has everything you need—and you can step right out into nature for hours of hiking. The supermarket in the village is also within walking distance. We did have to keep an eye on our dachshund, though, because she could slip under the cabin and escape from “our property.” The entire property (which also includes the larger cabin) is otherwise well-fenced.
We’ll definitely be back for a third time.Hele fijne cabin, alles zit ‘erop en eraan, je loopt zo de natuur in om uren te kunnen wandelen. Ook de supermarkt in het dorp is op loopafstand te vinden. We moesten wel onze teckel in de gaten houden want zij kon onder het huisje doorlopen en zo ‘ons terrein’ ontvluchten. Het gehele terrein (waar de grotere cabin ook op staat) is verder goed omheind.
Wij komen zeker voor een derde keer terug.We really enjoyed this nature house again. A nice bonus this time was the new hot tub, which we took a quick dip in every evening. The bed is very comfortable, and we liked that there was no TV.
We hebben weer erg genoten van dit natuurhuisje. Een fijne aanvulling dit keer was de nieuwe jacuzzi waar we elke avond even in gingen. Het bed ligt prima en wij vonden het fijn dat er geen tv was.
