Welcome to our cozy cottage, a true 'palace' in the woods near (private) lake 'De Bonnerplas', 2 km away from the village of Gieten. In whatever season you come, it is always beautiful and peaceful! The cottage has 3 bedrooms: one with a double bed, and two with a single bed each. Two bedrooms have a sink. There is a kitchen, toilet and a shower room. At the back you will find a covered terrace, overlooking the lake. And if the weather is nice, you can use the picnic table in the garden. There is a bicycle shed and a shed with garden furniture.

Nature and surroundings

The nature house is in the woods, on a quiet dirt road, which is part of the Drenthe trail. You can swim in the lake and relax in an inflatable boat. In the immediate vicinity it is wonderful for hiking, cycling or horseback riding. Golf course the Semslanden is also nearby. The cozy villages Gieten and Gasselte are within walking / biking distance. The Nije Hemelriek and the Gasselterveld in the extensive State Forests are nearby with sandy holes for swimming and extensive forests for cycling (a 32 km long MTB route!) and walking. You can wander around the Drouwenerzand, with sandy plains, heathland and forests. The nearby National Park Drentsche Aa is "the best preserved stream-esque village landscape of Western Europe" and has many hiking and cycling routes. Gieten has a beautiful outdoor swimming pool, Het Zwanemeer, in the middle of the forest. In short, plenty of nature to completely unwind! In addition, you are within 20-30 minutes in Groningen, Assen and Emmen.

    Delightful. Fine cottage. Beautiful surroundings, nothing to criticize. More than fully equipped. Definitely come back. Midweek too short.

    We did beautiful walks in the area, 't Nije Hemelriek was really the most beautiful (swinters the parking there is free). And for a morning or evening walk with the dog, the very quiet dirt road on which the cottage is located is fine.The cottage itself was beautiful, nice and comfortable. Nice and quickly warmed by the warm air blowing underfloor heating, which unfortunately could also be heard quite well at night, which took some getting used to. The garden is not op.heind, for us no problem because it was too cold to sit outside. Unfortunately we did have a large dog from a passerby running through the garden.The decor was nice and practical, with a spacious dining table on which we could do puzzles. There were 2 puzzles in the closet, a few reading books and games. There good and sufficient light for reading or crafts. Everything was incredibly clean and fresh. We and our dog really had a fantastic winter midweek.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    There was snow, and therefore the surroundings were fairy-like! Many species of birds came into the garden every day, of course we had put down food because it was really winter.
