    Cozy, cozy, decorated to our taste with lots of wood. The beds sleep great and the shower is nice. The kitchen is fully equipped. We could even borrow bikes.

    "The stay at the IJsselparadise was wonderful! The cottage exudes one and all attention and beauty in all the beautiful materials used in both construction and furnishings. The view is beautiful and soothing, the beds sleep deliciously and the couch is a perfect place to sit back together and not have to do anything for a while. From the cottage you can cycle straight into nature, we drove through the woods, walked on the moors, and made a stop at a cozy forest restaurant along the way. In the morning we woke up to sunlight through the windows and the sound of birds. Claartje and Jan are very sweet people, you don't often meet them so helpful and friendly! We spent two nights here and can heartily recommend it. The cottage lives up to its name!

    Very nice cottage, furnished with care and very comfortable. Nice beds, underfloor heating and a kitchen with all amenities.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    The cottage was easily accessible and is beautifully situated, with unobstructed views of the river IJssel. Lovely hiking in the area, where you actually meet no or hardly any other people. Unique place!

    We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful nature house. It is in a beautiful place, very well furnished and equipped with all the comforts you need for a comfortable stay. Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by the landlords, Claartje and Jan. They gave us a short tour and a clear explanation about the use of the facilities. We look back on a fine walking and cycling week from this great location on the edge of the river IJssel, in the middle of the beautiful forests on the border of Salland and the Achterhoek. The cities of Deventer and Zutphen are also within cycling distance and well worth a visit.
