A charming guesthouse on the IJssel, right by the river, built sustainably from oak and other natural materials. Here, you’re surrounded by nature, with a beautiful view of the river and floodplains. Equipped with every comfort: comfortable beds, including a height-adjustable double bed in the bedroom. You’ll enjoy expansive views from every room and the terrace; you might spot hares, rabbits, squirrels, a group of roe deer, or a flock of birds passing by. Geese graze in the meadows along the dike, and inland waterway vessels and pleasure yachts cruise the IJssel—you could watch them for hours! A second sleeping area on the mezzanine features twin beds. The beds are made up. Bathroom with a spacious shower and toilet; bath towels provided. Cozy living area with a corner sofa, comfortable chairs, and a dining table with 4 chairs. Good internet connection, television, and a Sonos sound system. Well-equipped kitchen with an induction cooktop, spacious refrigerator, combination oven, dishwasher, coffee maker, Nespresso machine, and milk frother.

Nature and surroundings

The nature house is located on the IJsseldijk in Epse, 2 km from the popular village of Gorssel—where everyone wants to live—4 km from the center of booming Deventer, and 8 km from historic Zutphen. Two beautiful Hanseatic cities, each with its own unique character. In Gorssel, don’t miss Museum More! You’ll find charming shops and outdoor cafes there. Deventer offers particularly delightful shopping streets, De Brink, great restaurants, a theater, and a movie theater. Go for a walk in the forests of Epse and Gorssel and on the Gorssel heath. The extensive cycling network in the Achterhoek lets you discover many beautiful sights along country estates, quiet spots, farm shops, and peaceful villages. Nature lovers and birdwatchers can indulge themselves here with walks along the floodplains. Here you’ll find the perfect opportunity to truly unwind in nature while still enjoying the vibrancy of a small-town setting and culture. Everything is within walking and biking distance. We have bicycles, walking maps, and biking maps available.

    A really lovely place, with all the trimmings. The owners know how to welcome their guests like no one else. There’s plenty of wildlife to enjoy, from hares and roe deer to buzzards learning to fly. And that’s not even mentioning the hares and squirrels that aren’t bothered by your presence. The surrounding area is perfect for biking, hiking, or visiting the MORE museum. Or you can just sit back and read a book on the terrace overlooking the lawn and the IJssel River.
    Actually, I should have given it a 10, I realize now ;-)

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    A truly delightful spot with a view of the IJssel River, near Deventer and Gorssel, within biking distance of Zutphen. A little slice of paradise, in other words.
