In one of the most beautiful places in the Netherlands, near Zutphen and the Veluwe, on the edge of the Achterhoek, you will find a special nature house located on a small estate with vineyard. A thatched mini farmhouse in French atmosphere. In this small cozy cottage you sleep on the mezzanine finished with birch trunks. Downstairs is a nice living room with an attractive stone wall. The kitchenette has 2 induction burners, a microwave/grill, a Nespresso machine, an electric kettle and a refrigerator. Coffee cups and tea are on the house. There is a modern bathroom with rain shower. From the couch you can look out onto the vineyard! French doors lead out onto a large sunny terrace. The house is heated sustainably and insulated with organic materials. A wonderful place to get away from it all! Because of the steep stairs it is less suitable for people with mobility problems. On the property there is also a luxury converted hay barn for 4 pers. see: NH ID 62751.

Nature and surroundings

The grounds cover 1.3 hectares and are located in the middle of the coulisse landscape of the IJssel Valley, near the Veluwe and the Achterhoek. With a natural pond, the sheep pastures with fruit trees, a vegetable garden and a vineyard, it is a wonderful place to lounge around. We have already spotted over 60 different birds on the property! The area also offers plenty of opportunities for cyclists and hikers: the Empese and Tondense heaths, several extensive estates, the Veluwezoom and the Hanseatic cities of Zutphen, Deventer and Doesburg. All reachable within half an hour. Or bike to the smallest town in the Netherlands, Bronkhorst, a museum village with many art studios. We gladly invite guests to use the entire grounds. Plop down on the lounge set by the pond, or grab one of your patio chairs and find a spot under the trees or wherever you like and enjoy the birds, the frogs, and the silence!

    Very friendly reception and warm welcome also by dog Yuna. :-) The cottage 'Resi' contained - besides a spacious garden with birdhouses - everything we needed, is very durable and comfortable and with neat facilities (bathroom, kitchenette). Tiny house (with loft), though, with a steep staircase and a cozy sleeping area. We were aware of this in advance. Less suitable for those with mobility problems, but otherwise certainly not disturbing and all in all a very cozy cottage and we had a pleasant stay. Also very much enjoyed the homemade wine and jam.:-) We would therefore definitely recommend a stay!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    An ideal place to unwind, surrounded by birds, meadows and forest. Delightful! Far away from busy roads, but its central location also makes a trip to the city definitely an option.

    It was a little too dark for us personally but that is a personal issue.
