Our farm is located on the outskirts of Westdorp, with the nature house right next to it. The nature house was rebuilt from the former bakehouse, where bread used to be baked and, later, young cattle were housed. Now the house is equipped with all modern conveniences. It features a cozy living area with a fully equipped kitchen (including coffee, tea, and basic spices), overlooking the farmland. The cottage has a spacious bedroom with a double bed and another bedroom with a bunk bed. The bathroom features a wonderful (rain) shower, sink, and toilet. A private garden offers plenty of space to enjoy your peace and quiet. To make your stay truly authentic, you can enjoy the farm’s fresh produce, such as eggs from our chickens, milk and yogurt from the goats, and fruits and vegetables from the vegetable garden and orchard. We also have dogs, cats, pigs, geese, and two ducks. Feel free to take a look around or lend a hand.
Nature and surroundings
Westdorp has a close-knit community and offers a relaxed lifestyle, far from the hustle and bustle. In addition to peace and quiet, the area offers plenty of sights and activities. Borger, the “Hunebed Capital,” is just a five-minute drive away and features a variety of amenities and restaurants. The surrounding nature, such as the Hondsrug National Geopark, attracts hikers, cyclists, and nature lovers. Fun day trips include the Hunebed Center, Wildlands, Ellert and Brammert, Kabouterland, the sheep herd in Exloo, the Poolshoogte observation tower, and the Boomkroonpad. Active visitors can swim in the forest lake at Ellertshaar, go mountain biking, or climb at Joytime Outdoor Park. A tour on a Carver or Chopper from Eko-Tours is also an option. In case of bad weather, the Hunzerdal tropical swimming pool in Borger or the shops in Assen, Emmen, or Groningen are good alternatives.

We thoroughly enjoyed this lovely, neat, cozy, and comfortable cottage! Communicating with Dineke was great, and the tour of the animals was fun too :) The surroundings are wonderfully peaceful, and it’s a great place for hiking and swimming in a small forest lake. Thank you for your flexibility and hospitality!
We hebben enorm genoten van dit heerlijke nette, gezellige en fijne huisje! Het contact met Dineke was super, en de rondleiding langs de dieren ook :) De omgeving is heerlijk rustig en je kan er goed wandelen en zwemmen in een bosmeertje. Bedankt voor de flexibiliteit en gastvrijheid!

An incredibly cozy, cozy well-insulated cottage. Kitchen amply equipped, even kitchen herbs provided. Very pleasant and enjoyable stay. Partly due to the attentive, very nice owners who make you feel warm and welcome and also offer (h) honest products.
Een ontzettend knus, gezellig goed geïsoleerd huisje. Keuken ruimschoots uitgerust, zelfs keukenkruiden aanwezig. Zeer aangenaam en prettig verblijf gehad. Mede door de attente, zeer aardige eigenaren die je een warm en welkom gevoel geven en ook nog eens (h)eerlijke producten aanbieden
Wonderfully quiet despite being in an area with farms just working. Beautiful surroundings with beautiful natural areas. Roads nearby and more than enough things to discover / undertake. Drenthe is always moving
Heerlijk rustig ondanks dat je in een omgeving zit met boerderijen waar gewoon gewerkt wordt. Prachtige omgeving met mooie natuurgebieden. Uitvalswegen dichtbij en meer dan genoeg dingen te ontdekken/ ondernemen. Drenthe is altijd in beweging
