The nature house adjacent to the Zelle estate is located on the outskirts of the hamlet of Varssel (Hengelo GLD) and sits in the heart of the Achterhoek region. It features its own driveway, parking area, spacious garden, and bike shed. EV charging station 150 m away. It is bright, comfortable, fully furnished, and equipped with all modern conveniences. Upon entering, you’ll find the restroom in the entryway, with a staircase leading to the spacious bedroom featuring a shower and sink. Through the hallway, you enter the living room with kitchen, which features French doors on two sides so you can bring the outdoors inside. There is a covered terrace with a dining table and lounge set. The garden features several seating areas so you can enjoy sun, shade, peace, and privacy. A lovely spot to enjoy what the Achterhoek has to offer, whether alone or as a couple. In addition to the two beds, a crib is also available. A small dog is welcome, provided it is included in the booking and kept on a leash. No other pets (cats, birds, etc.) are allowed.
Nature and surroundings
Peace, space, quiet dark nights with the sound of an owl or nightingale in the background, and a dazzling starry sky on clear nights. This is a wonderful base for hiking, cycling/mountain biking, golf, and nature lovers to explore the bocage landscape of the Achterhoek. But it’s also a place to relax and enjoy the many birds, squirrels, hares, and deer that appear at the edge of the woods, fields, and estate—all from the comfort of your chair. The golf course and the restaurant with a terrace at the Zelle estate are within walking distance. The proximity to Hanseatic towns such as Doesburg, Bronkhorst, and Zutphen offers a diverse range of cultural activities. The More, Lalique, and Staal museums are definitely worth a visit. The cottage is located on the Pieterpad trail between Vorden and Zelhem. The 700-km circular hike through the Achterhoek is also pure enjoyment! Likewise, the Eight Castles Route by bike and the gardens of Wildenborch and Wiersse are definitely worth a visit!

I highly recommend it—I had a wonderful time. I saw lots of animals along the way, and my last hike at sunset was a truly special moment...
Het is een aanrader heb het erg naar mij zin gehad. Ben onderweg veel dieren tegen gekomen en mij laatste wandeling met zonsondergang een bijzonder moment mogen ervaren..
It was the first time I’d ever gone out on my own. The area was wonderful for taking walks, and the cottage and its surroundings were so peaceful;
I had a really great time...Het was voor mij de eerste keer dat ik alleen op pad ging. Het was heerlijk in de omgeving om je wandelingen te maken en je ervaart zoveel rust in het huisje en in de omgeving,
heb het super fijn gehad..This text is automatically translated. -
