Nature and surroundings
Odoorn is located on the Hondsrug in Drenthe. On the Hondsrug and thus around Odoorn there are several nature reserves. Just north of Odoorn - this is where the tent house looks out - are the Odoornerdennen. This forest is located on a former sand drift. Once this forest was created by the farmers to put an end to the nuisance of the drifting sand on the fields. Now it is a beautiful and varied nature reserve. In several places there are still beautiful moors with large juniper bushes. These parts used to be too hilly to reclaim.Just past Odoorn is 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, where ice and melting water created the landscape of ridges and stream valleys with the many boulders from Scandinavia. These boulders were used 5,000 years ago by the Hunebed builders to construct their burial monuments, which we now call the dolmens.

We really enjoyed the cottage. The only downside, in our opinion, was the lack of sunlight at the front of the cottage. On the cooler days, the cottage felt a bit chilly and dark, and it was a bit too cold to sit outside. It would have been nice if there had been a seating area on the side as well, since the sun did shine there later in the afternoon.
Het huisje is heel goed bevallen. Enige minpunt vonden wij het gebrek aan zon aan de voorkant van het huisje. Op de wat minder warme dagen deed het huisje daarom wat koel en donker aan en was het wat fris om buiten te zitten. Het was fijn geweest als er aan de zijkant ook een zitgelegenheid was geweest aangezien daar wel zon was later in de middag.
It was wonderfully peaceful, and the surroundings were beautiful.
Het was heerlijk rustig en de omgeving was prachtig.

The accommodations are enchanting. Sitting in the garden, building a fire, and relaxing was priceless every evening. The host is very attentive without being intrusive.
Die Unterkunft ist zauberhaft. Im Garten zu sitzen, ein Feuer zu machen und zu entspannen war an jedem Abend unbezahlbar. Der Gastgeber ist sehr zuvorkommend ohne aufdringlich zu sein.
Except for a few people out for a walk, it was very quiet in this beautiful tent house.
Bis auf ein paar Spaziergänger, war es sehr ruhig in diesem wunderschönen Zelthaus.
