    What a warm welcome—such hospitable people. We felt right at home.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    A very cozy house. Plenty of space for 5 people. Wonderful beds! A very spacious kitchen with a super cozy round table. We barely spent any time in the spacious living room this weekend. The art pieces were a real highlight.

    There's not much to complain about with this cottage—highly recommended!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    A very charming and fully furnished nature house nestled in the woods of the Olterterp Estate. The owners, Jellie and Meindert, have tastefully decorated the house, and they welcomed us warmly. From their own flower garden, there was a small vase of flowers in every room—how thoughtful! From the cottage, you’re surrounded by trees where you can see and hear many birds; it’s sometimes handy to keep a bird guide close at hand. We went on a few lovely hikes in the area; with the hiking trail markers, you can also plan your own route. The small churches in the area (all within walking distance) are also worth visiting. In one week, we obviously couldn’t do nearly everything we’d (still) like to see or do—a good reason to come back again!
