Simplicity and reuse are the basis of our yard. Small and compact, among the meadows and trees stands this nature house. A shed, attractively furnished for a quiet stay. Enjoy the crackling fire in the wood stove, the chickens scurrying around and the heather sheep grazing peacefully in the meadow. Get lost in a book or sniff Spring scents in the woods. End the day with a campfire and watch thousands of stars appear in the sky. Because of the comfortable sofa bed, it is still spacious inside. There is a small furnished kitchenette with water and a two-burner stove. Wood for the stove can be bought here. Outside a simple dry toilet and under the trees is a hot outdoor shower and dishwashing kitchen. The ordinary toilet, refrigerator and microwave/oven in the farmhouse are shared with the possible guest of the other mobile homes. Luxury is a word that does not suit our yard. However, the richness and abundance of our yard we gladly share.

Nature and surroundings

Go hiking or biking and enjoy Drenthe's agricultural landscape and beautiful natural areas. A fifteen-minute walk from the nature house is where the forest begins. Old peat mining canals traverse the forests around Elim and Hollandscheveld. In Schoonhoven, a large natural swimming lake 4 km away, is great for swimming and relaxing recreation. National park Het Dwingelderveld is a 20-minute drive away and, with its sand drifts, forests and heathland, offers many days of hiking fun. The Vechtdal near Hardenberg offers a varied hiking landscape.

    Maarten and Leen are both very hospitable, help where necessary, but also leave you totally alone and you really feel like you're in the middle of nowhere, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. I had broken my elbow so I could do almost nothing, but that did not spoil the fun, sitting in a chair by the wood fire I could enjoy all the beautiful sounds of birds, and watching the playful lambs, beautiful sunshine and views.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    It is a cozy, romantic, cozy cottage. With cozy indoor and outdoor kitchen, cooking on wood fire, outdoor shower, and dry-toilet available.Even with rain you can enjoy in the converted keetje.Outside there are plenty of animals to cuddle with or to watch and listen.Sheep, lambs, horses, chickens and even a beautiful peacock.And all day beautiful bird concerts.

What does “contactless stay” mean?
You can stay here without personal contact with the host, for example via a key safe or digital access. A contactless stay does not always have to be mandatory.

After each stay, we invite our guests to rate the nature house, the surroundings, and specific activities. An activity is only shown at a nature house if it meets two conditions: at least 20 unique reviews have been given, and at least 60% of guests gave a score of ‘amazing’ (3/4) or ‘wow’ (4/4).
