This vacation home has 2 bedrooms and sleeps 4 people, making it ideal for a family. It is located in a wooded area with high sandy soils and 2 national parks in the Frisian Woods region, close to Appelscha. In the quiet village of Donkerbroek, you can pick up small groceries. The village is situated in the middle of the triangle formed by the cities of Drachten, Assen, and Heerenveen. Here you can go cycling, hiking, golfing, or visit the Duinenzathe amusement park. Situated on a quiet street, this unique, simple forest farmhouse dates from 1906–1930. Upon entering, you’ll immediately feel the homey atmosphere. The house features two gas heaters. Next to the master bedroom is a loft where children can sleep comfortably (note: steep stairs). From the terrace, you’ll enjoy a beautiful view of the countryside. The house has Wi-Fi, and a maximum of two pets are allowed.

    I really enjoyed it and was able to relax.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    A very peaceful setting. At night, you can hear all the wildlife in the area rustling in the bushes and making sounds. Birds, cows, sheep, hares, bats, and countless insects—you’ll find them all here in or right around the garden.
    A very friendly host who’ll help you get to and from the bus stop in Donkerbroek (normally a 30-minute walk), and will also assist you during your stay if you want to go somewhere nearby.
    What I especially appreciated is that you’re left in peace and aren’t disturbed unless necessary, which makes for a very comfortable and peaceful naturist stay. Naturism is possible in a large part of the garden, especially on the terrace, but it’s not recommended near the ditch due to a nearby stretch of road that isn’t screened by trees and bushes. In the rest of the garden, you absolutely don’t have to worry about this at all.

    Living room + (small) kitchen, bedroom 10: spacious, neat, and cozy; plenty of dishes; no rusty pots and pans, as is sometimes the case; hot water for washing dishes; plenty of cleaning supplies, coffee, etc., and a few little treats. Sofas are more modern than in the photo and comfortable; other furniture is fine; Wi-Fi and TV are available. It might look simple, but other than that, absolutely no issues. Spacious and comfortable bed, large nightstands. Lovely outdoor garden chairs with cushions. Unfortunately, the outdoor umbrella stand was no longer stable. Bathroom 9: neat and simple. The water heater in the kitchen also supplies the bath water. Unfortunately, this means the shower pressure is lower, but showering is still quite manageable. There’s a small sink with cold water only. Those who prefer a large sink with hot water will have to go to the kitchen. It’s a real nature house, and that has its own charm. Right?
    For the price charged, you shouldn’t expect a super-luxurious home!!
    We had a wonderful time! We’d definitely come back!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    A lovely, quiet location quite a distance from the busier, populated areas, tucked away behind a strip of woods on a super quiet road with just a nature campground and a few houses. Wonderful views over the farmland and the cows. Next to the house is a small plot of land with some sheep.
    From the cottage, we went on three bike rides through lovely rural countryside, with frequent stretches of forest and beautiful estates and wooded areas. Plenty of space to sit outside, whether it’s sunny or windy. Great! And nice and dark at night.
