    This cottage does not meet the quality I expect from naturehouse.com. First some positive things: You feel like you are in the middle of the forest in this cottage. The garden is pleasant although I am not sure if there is garden furniture (we did not see it, but in hindsight we could have looked for it better). The cottage was clean and matches the pictures.Then what disappointed us: The cottage surprised us negatively several times. It started with the booking: I had filtered on four adults on the website, but after booking it turned out that the landlord did not actually want that. Fortunately, they made an exception. The payment: part of the booking must be paid in advance, and part cash to the owner (including 50 euros for the cleaning of about 30 square meters of chalet). Bedding is also not included in the price. Afterwards, on top of that, charges for electricity and gas are deducted from the deposit. In our case, that was 6 euros for one night's stay. I find that a high amount, so that suggests that this cottage is not sustainable. For garbage disposal you also have to pay two euros each time. In this way it is unclear during the booking exactly how much you will pay. That you have to pay on three occasions I found an unpleasant experience. State of the cottage: in itself, everything in the cottage worked well enough, but there are points that show that the maintenance could be better. The refrigerator is in need of replacement. It makes a lot of noise and presumably also guzzles energy. The noise from the refrigerator can be easily heard in both bedrooms. From the faucet in the bathroom, the handle comes off easily, we almost lost it in the sink which has no grate. The small bedroom has a blind that does not open all the way and, due to a repair with tape, it is also difficult to close. Finally, there was mold in the senseo machine.Classification: we had to search for the kettle and senseo. These were in fact not in the kitchen, but in a cupboard in the living room. Certainly a kettle I would expect on the kitchen counter. Also, there was no garbage bag. About the floor plan of the cottage we are satisfied, and the beds and sofas are in fine condition. In short, the cottage is not bad, but because of all the setbacks, the stay as a whole is not recommended.

    The cottage is on the outer edge of a vacation park, but you don't notice much of that. It is located directly on the asphalt road that runs through the forest, and so you are in the middle of the forest. This does make it quite dark inside. The road is quite quiet and at night you can hear owls.
