This nature house is situated in a beautiful location in Twente, within a large nature reserve. It features 20,000 m² of private grounds. The nature house was built in 1925 as a hunting lodge and has recently been renovated while preserving its authentic character. It’s situated in a unique spot where you can unwind and enjoy nature with complete privacy. An ideal location to relax on the large porch, by the fireplace, or in the wood-fired hot tub (optional). The cottage is simple and “back to basics” (no Wi-Fi, TV, or central heating). The cottage has electricity and running water and is equipped with new plumbing fixtures (toilet and shower). There is a living room with a wood stove. The kitchen has a refrigerator, a small oven, and a 2-burner electric stovetop. The bedroom is in the attic and has skylights. The porch is accessible from the living room through two French doors. From the porch, you can walk directly into the nature reserve. If you’re checking out on Sunday, you may use the cottage until 4:00 p.m.
Nature and surroundings
The forest cabin is located in the heart of the Lonnekerberg nature reserve. This area is part of a belt of nature reserves along the Oldenzaal-Enschede moraine and consists of old, diverse woodland, with remnants of heathland and meandering streams. Due to its unique location and soil composition, the area is home to a wealth of rare flora and fauna. In the immediate vicinity of the forest cottage are cycling, mountain biking, and hiking trails that wind through the beautiful Twente bocage landscape, where forests and nature reserves alternate with old farmhouses, meadows, and fields. Nearby is the former Twente Air Base, where you can experience both nature and history; events are also held there from time to time. The cottage is located “in the middle of nowhere,” but the charming village of Lonneker—with a few shops, restaurants, and outdoor cafes—is easily accessible on foot or by bike (2 km). The Hanseatic city of Oldenzaal is about 5 km away, and Enschede and Hengelo are about 10 km away.

Great communication with the host. The cottage is neat and clean. There’s plenty of firewood available. Nice barbecue on the porch. A wonderful, peaceful, and quiet spot! Highly recommended!
Fijne communicatie met de verhuurder. Huisje is netjes en schoon. Genoeg hout aanwezig om te stoken. Fijne bbq op de veranda. Heerlijke, rustige en stille plek! Aanrader!

We had a great time here
We hebben hier genoten
What a wonderful place this is! A small cottage over 100 years old set in a large private forest. You can truly enjoy the peace and quiet here. The outdoor hot tub is also wonderful, especially in the evening in a dark forest under the stars, with only the sound of owls and other birds. There’s more than enough firewood to keep the fire going, which also helps maintain a comfortable temperature inside. Don’t expect a luxurious cottage, but do expect peace and space.
Wat een heerlijke plek is dit! Een klein huisje van ruim 100 jaar oud in een groot stuk prive bos. Echt genieten hier van de rust en de ruimte. De hottub buiten is ook heerlijk zeker 's avonds in een donker bos onder de sterren met alleen het geluid van de uilen en andere vogels. Er is ruim voldoende haardhout om te stoken waarmee je ook binnen de temperatuur op peil kan houden. Verwacht geen luxe huisje maar verwacht wel rust en ruimte.
