Always wanted to know what it's like to sleep in a real Tiny house? Get away from the hustle and bustle and stay in a cozy nature house in nature? We offer 2 beautiful unique cottages in a meadow, adjacent to a horse farm. You can park next to the farm and from there you can take a private path to your cottage. Overlooking a meadow with cows or sheep, you can relax here. The Tiny Houses are fully equipped and well insulated so that even in the colder months it is lovely to stay. To keep the ecological footprint as small as possible, the Tiny Houses consist largely of recycled materials and have a composting toilet. It is also possible to bring your own horse. In short, a beautiful experience! (This reservation concerns the rear Tiny house of the 2)

The cottage is very simple, which is quite charming. It is also quite comfortable. A few drawbacks: there was a strange smell inside, probably horse stable smell masked with air freshener, the couch clothes were grubby and the cottage was not spotless. The staircase to the bed is very narrow, with steps that don't make your bare feet happy. Other than that, totally okay, great shower, compost toilet works fine, heating too. Response from landlord: Thank you for your review. We are sorry to read that your experience was not as optimal as that of our other guests. We would have loved to hear this right away when we asked if everything was satisfactory so we could have resolved any dissatisfaction. The Tiny Houses are very far away from the horse barn and so we were unable to detect a horse barn smell. By the air freshener you may mean Rituals scented sticks, we are sorry if this is not your preference. We hope that despite the negative points and perhaps because of the prepared oliebollen, you still had a nice New Year's Eve.
Het huisje is heel eenvoudig, wat best charmant is. Het is ook behoorlijk comfortabel. Een paar minpuntjes: er hing een vreemde geur binnen, waarschijnlijk paardenstallucht die gemaskeerd werd met luchtverfrisser, de bankkleding was groezelig en het huisje was niet brandschoon. Het trappetje naar het bed is erg smal, met treetjes waar je blote voeten niet blij van worden.
Verder helemaal oké, prima douche, composttoilet werkt prima, verwarming ook.
Reactie van verhuurder:
Bedankt voor uw recensie. Het spijt ons om te lezen dat uw ervaring niet zo optimaal is als die van onze andere gasten. We hadden dit graag meteen gehoord toen we vroegen of alles naar wens was zodat we eventueel ontevredenheid hadden kunnen oplossen. De Tiny Houses staan erg ver bij de paardenstal vandaan en een paardenstallucht hebben we dan ook niet kunnen ontdekken. Met de luchtverfrisser bedoelt u misschien de geurstokjes van Rituals, het spijt ons als dit niet uw voorkeur heeft. We hopen dat u ondanks de minpunten en wellicht door de klaargezette oliebollen, toch nog een fijn oud en nieuw heeft beleefd.The cottage is on a piece of land behind a horse trough and among the meadows, in a village. The environment is agricultural, which to me is something different from nature.
Het huisje staat op een landje achter een paardenbak en tussen de weilanden, in een dorp. De omgeving is agrarisch, wat voor mij iets anders is dan natuur.

Nice and cute little house for a weekend getaway. Truly a Tiny house. However, the stairs in the cottage were too small making it difficult and sometimes painful to get upstairs. Good to keep that in mind if you are a little older. Furthermore, it looked like no one had been in the cottage for a long time as it was very dusty and there were bugs here and there. Given the location near the meadows, the bugs are easily explained. However, it would have been nice if it was a bit cleaner. Response landlord: We find this very annoying because we do our best to clean the cottage and would therefore like to know where the dust or insect was seen. After several attempts unfortunately we could not get in touch.
Leuk en schattig huisje voor een weekendje weg. Echt een Tiny House. De trap in het huisje was echter te klein waardoor je met moeite en soms pijn naar boven kwam. Goed om daar rekening mee te houden als je wat ouder bent. Verder leek het alsof er lang niet iemand in het huisje geweest was, omdat het erg stoffig was en er her en der insecten lagen. Gezien de locatie bij de weilanden zijn de insecten goed te verklaren. Echter zou het fijn zijn geweest als het wat schoner was.
Reactie verhuurder:
We vinden dit heel vervelend want we doen erg ons best om het huisje schoon te maken en zouden daarom graag willen weten waar het stof of de insect gezien is. Na meerdere pogingen helaas geen contact kunnen krijgen.Fine environment among the meadows.
The cottage we had was the back which gave you the most privacy. The only thing you could hear was the church bell.Fijne omgeving tussen de weilanden.
Het huisje wat wij hadden was de achterste waardoor je de meeste privacy hebt. Het enige wat je hoorde was de kerkklok.This text is automatically translated.
