Get into the Christmas spirit starting November 20! Welcome to our forest lodge, located in a unique spot in the Veluwe region within the Emst (Epe) forest area. (See also our new forest lodge 80457) Our vacation home has been renovated with passion. It features plenty of wood and natural tones, giving it a rustic, warm atmosphere and charm. It’s the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle and enjoy special moments together. Located in a small, authentic nature park on a spacious 745 m² lot. From the lodge, you can walk straight into the woods. Inside, you can enjoy a luxurious kitchen with a bar and a living area featuring a sitting and dining section with a cozy gas fireplace. There are two bedrooms with two double box-spring beds (with down comforters) and a comfortable bathroom with a rain shower, all on the ground floor. French doors lead out to the cozy veranda where you can relax and enjoy the outdoors. You can warm up in the beautiful fire pit in the evenings. A wonderful vacation home in all seasons. Pets—by arrangement.
Nature and surroundings
Drive up the forest path and you’ll arrive at that wonderful spot in nature with rustling trees, greenery, and silence. Surrounded by nature, you’ll breathe in the fresh air, mingled with the scent of pine trees. When the first rays of sunlight appear in the morning, you’ll wake up refreshed to the sound of rustling leaves, chirping birds, or playful squirrels. As dusk falls, there’s a good chance you’ll spot a roe deer, wild boar, badger, or fox. You can even join a wildlife tour with the forest ranger—100% wildlife guarantee! At night, it’s quiet here and still truly dark, and on clear nights you can admire countless stars above the treetops. Hear the hoot of an owl or the tapping of a woodpecker. It makes you realize that you’re truly in nature... On the other hand, there’s plenty to do in the surrounding area. Think of Paleis het Loo, Apenheul, Heerderstrand, Kon. Julianatoren, de Veluwse Bron, Cannenburgh Castle, golf courses, and beautiful towns like Deventer, Elburg, Zwolle, Apeldoorn, and Vierhouten—all nearby.

It might be an idea to start installing draft strips, since the doors do not all seal properly. Landlord's Response: Thank you for your feedback. You are referring to the porch door. We have also noticed this and will start ordering strips for this, so this will be improved. Thank you for thinking with us.
Misschien is het een idee om tochtstrips te gaan plaatsen, omdat de deuren niet allemaal goed afsluiten.
Reactie van verhuurder:
Dank voor uw feedback. U bedoelt de verandadeur. Wij hebben dit ook opgemerkt en zullen hiervoor strips gaan bestellen, zodat dit verbeterd wordt. Dank voor het meedenken.Cozy decorated both outside and inside. Lots of peace experienced by the birds.
Gezellig ingericht, zowel buiten als binnen. Veel rust ervaren door de vogels.

Response time of the owner is fast concrete,friendly and clear.
Reactie tijd van de eigenaar is snel concreet,vriendelijk en duidelijk.
Much effort put into the house to give it a homey feel. Clean house and well maintained. The house is among the trees so you feel like you are in the forest. The forest is behind the cottage. Nice place to ground and recharge again. Everything has been thought of.
Veel moeite gestoken in het huis om het een huiselijke sfeer te geven. Schoon huis en goed onderhouden. Het huis zit tussen de bomen zodat je je in het bos waant. Het bos zit achter het huisje. Mooie plek om weer te aarden en op te laden. Overal is aan gedacht.

We had a great week. Wonderful cottage, nice walks. great Response from host: Thanks for your comment, and feedback about the location. We would like to clarify that the view from the bench - as also shown in photos 17 and 18 - is actually a free and green character. The cottage is located on a small forest park (is not isolated) with more cottages, but they are well spaced with enough privacy.
We hebben een fijne week gehad. Prachtig huisje, fijn gewandeld.
Prima
Reactie van verhuurder:
Dank voor jullie reactie, en feedback over de ligging. We willen graag toelichten dat het uitzicht vanaf de bank – zoals ook te zien is op foto 17 en 18 – juist een vrij en groen karakter heeft. Het huisje ligt op een kleinschalig bospark (is niet alleenstaand) met meer huisjes, maar deze staan op ruime afstand van elkaar met voldoende privacy.It is a beautiful forest cottage. It lacks nothing. It is clean, decorated with attention and directly from the cottage you can make beautiful walks. The area and the small park are beautiful but we had the impression on naturehouse.nl by the pictures that it would be a bit freer. From the couch you see directly the neighbors.We really had a wonderful week in a beautiful cottage with a cozy garden.
Het is een prachtig boshuisje. Het ontbreekt je aan niks. Het is schoon, met aandacht ingericht en direct vanuit het huisje kan je prachtige wandelingen maken.
De omgeving en het kleinschalige park zijn prachtig maar wij hadden op natuurhuisje.nl door de foto's de indruk gekregen dat het wat vrijer zou liggen. Vanaf de bank zie je direct de buren.
We hebben echt een heerlijke week gehad in een prachtig huisje met een gezellige tuin.This text is automatically translated.
