This charming, luxurious, and spacious nature house is located on a rustic dirt road in the woods, with a view of a beautiful heathland from the house, just outside the village of Otterlo. It offers complete privacy and freedom to those seeking tranquility, nature lovers, and/or more active visitors. You’ll truly feel like you’re in paradise. The nature house is situated in a large nature reserve and is easily accessible—but not in a gated park behind a barrier—and is equipped with every comfort and luxury, including a cozy wood stove. Parking is no problem. Of course, your pet is also very welcome, and a large portion of the property is fenced so your dog can roam freely. In principle, a maximum of 2 dogs is allowed; however, please consult us regarding additional dogs. (Please keep dogs off the beds as well.) Bed linens, bath linens, kitchen linens, and towels are included. There is also a small shed available for storing bicycles.
Nature and surroundings
Relax to your heart’s content surrounded by nature, right next to a beautiful heathland and the “De Zanding” sand drift, and within walking distance of the entrance to Hoge Veluwe National Park, home to the famous Kröller-Müller Museum. The park itself also offers beautiful driving, biking, and hiking trails, as well as a unique hunting lodge steeped in history. An oasis for nature lovers and those seeking peace and quiet, but also offering unparalleled opportunities for active mountain bikers and hikers. In the immediate vicinity of the nature house, near the sand drift, a magnificent mountain bike trail has been marked out in the woods, featuring some pleasantly challenging sections. The village of Otterlo itself offers all the amenities needed for a pleasant stay, such as a supermarket, a bakery and butcher selling fresh goods, bike rentals, and several cafes and restaurants with lovely outdoor seating areas.

Everything you need is here—and more!
Alles wat je nodig hebt is er, meer dan dat!
Awesome! Beautifully situated right next to the heath, lovely decor, fully equipped, comfortable beds. Peace and quiet, plenty of space, no car traffic—what more could you ask for? We’re very, very satisfied! It’s a bit pricey, but that’s okay. We hope to stay there again someday.
Te gek! Fraai gelegen tegen het heideveld aan, mooie inrichting, over compleet, goede bedden. Rust, ruimte, geen verkeer van auto’s, wat wil een mens nog meer. Dik en dik tevreden! Wel aan de prijs, maar ok. Hopen nogmaals te kunnen verblijven daar.

It's a shame—I'd like to give it more than a 10.
Spijtig ik zou meer dan 10 willen geven.
A beautiful little cottage with more than enough space, in a very quiet location yet still close to the center of Otterlo. It has everything you need. In my opinion, this is definitely the best nature house has to offer.
Prachtig huisje meer dan ruimte genoeg, heel rustig gelegen maar toch dicht bij de dorpskern van Otterlo. Alles aanwezig wat je nodig hebt. Dit is volgens mij toch wel de top van natuurhuisje.

A lovely little house in beautiful surroundings. Still needs a few finishing touches, though.
Een fijn huisje in een prachtige omgeving. Wel nog even een paar puntjes op de i.
A wonderful spot in the woods on the edge of the heath. Accessible only via sandy paths. The beautiful garden is teeming with life. The neighbors are far enough away, and you have plenty of privacy. Every now and then you hear people talking or see hikers on the property. It didn’t bother us at all. The garden is part of the woods. The cottage is cozily furnished, and there’s plenty of everything. Cutlery, dishes, glasses, pans, etc., in abundance. Maybe a bit too much, but it comes in handy with a dishwasher. The beds are fine. Of course, there are a few things that could be improved. A light in the shed would be handy, as would a screen door in the bedroom. One of the sliding doors is a bit hard to close. We were actually told about that upon arrival. The owners are very friendly, and communication—mostly via WhatsApp—went smoothly. The cottage is just a few minutes’ bike ride from one of the entrances to De Hoge Veluwe National Park. Highly recommended.
Geweldige plek in het bos aan de rand van de heide. Alleen via zandpaden te bereiken. Veel leven in de geweldige tuin. De buren zitten op voldoende afstand en je zit heel prive. Af en toe hoor je mensen praten of staan er wandelaars op het terrein. Voor ons niet storend. Tuin is onderdeel van het bos. Huisje is gezellig ingericht en er is heel veel van alles. Bestek, servies, glazen, pannen etc in overvloed. Misschien een beetje veel maar wel handig met een vaatwasser. Bedden zijn prima. Uiteraard zijn er ook wat zaken die beter kunnen. Licht in de schuur zou handig zijn evenals een hordeur in de slaapkamer. Eén van de schuifpuien sluit lastig. Dat werd overigens bij de ontvangst verteld. De eigenaren zijn zeer vriendelijk en de communicatie, veelal via whatsapp, ging soepel. Huisje ligt op een paar minuten fietsen van 1 van de ingangen van Nationaal Park de Hoge Veluwe. Een aanrader.
