The name came about, due to the almost annual hatching of young tawny owls on our biodiversity plot. It is a fully equipped nature house, consisting of living room with wood stove and open kitchen with 2-burner induction hob. From the living room you enter a spacious bedroom with French doors to the garden. In the living room is a staircase to the mezzanine with a 2 pers.bed. (=Slaapkm. 2) Through the pantry with cupboard and combi oven-microwave, you enter the bathroom with shower, toilet, sink and a wood-fired sauna. "The Tawny Owl" is located on a large private plot with walking paths around the meadow and the kolk, where chickens, cats and our dog roam freely. Your garden has a picnic table, mini kamado, BBQ, fire basket and is located behind the house. Here you can enjoy peace and privacy with a wide view of the sheep pasture. At "The Tawny Owl" is a terrace located on a pond with flower border. You can park your car on the property. It is not suitable for the disabled.

    Very nice cottage. Beautiful and quiet surroundings. Friendly helpful owners. Enjoyed the sauna and the outdoor fire next to the sheep pasture. Worth repeating.

    The cottage is very complete, the beds good, the sauna fine, and the wood stove as well. We were there in the winter so sitting outside was out of the question, but when the weather is good you can do that at the cottage. Many birds, the owners have sheep, chickens, and a pig. The area is beautiful and quiet, the cottage is a little off the main road. Nice towns like Deventer and Zutphen are nearby.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Fine and complete cottage, friendly and helpful landlords. We enjoyed the beautiful surroundings, nearby is the Hengelse veld where you can walk. The wood stove was very nice, as was the sauna.

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.
What does “Fireworks-free” mean?
The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation. You might occasionally hear some noise or see some light from fireworks set off outside the immediate area. It is important that you agree with the landlord on what you can expect.
