Nature house in Niekerk
Groningen, Netherlands
- 2 persons
- 1 bedroom
- WiFi
- Pets allowed
The cottage is located at the back of the property in the orchard with fruit trees. Although the cottage is simple, it has all the basic amenities. There is a small bedroom with a double bed, a shower and separate toilet. The room and kitchen are one space. In principle, we assume rental to 2 persons, but this can be expanded to up to 4 persons. From the living room you enter the raised and enclosed veranda, but you can also feel free to sit in the orchard. For colder nights, there is a wood stove. Because the cottage is completely solar powered, you should be aware that you cannot use too many appliances at once and that possibly the water heater will need some time to reheat after showering (about 10 minutes). Upon arrival you will be surprised by a small vineyard and a monumental gardener's house in the style of the Amsterdam School. If you love animals it is ideal, see the pictures. A dog is welcome, provided it does not chase the animals....
Nature and surroundings
On request it is possible to place a tent. From the site, but also in the immediate vicinity are beautiful hiking and cycling trips to make, largely on specially constructed paths. Around the Lauwersmeer it is also beautiful walking. The area is a 'dark skies area'; the Milky Way, the stars and the moon are clearly visible on clear nights. A visit to 'De Theefabriek' with a store, terrace and delicious types of tea and to the fishing village of Zoutkamp with its fishing fleet and Scandinavian cottages can easily be combined. You can also take a day trip to Schiermonnikoog or go mudflat hiking and seal watching from Pieterburen. If you are more in for some fun, some shopping and a pub, Winsum (most beautiful village in the Netherlands in 2020) and Groningen are not far away.

Text on the website does not have to be to the detriment of the owners.
Tekst hoeft niet ten nadele van eigenaars op de website.
The interior was different from what the photos had led us to expect. Too basic for our tastes. Everything was actually too cramped, especially the bedroom and the bathroom. The dining table was loose—a bit risky. It was basically a run-down camper van and also too expensive at 100 euros per night. 80 euros would have been more reasonable. Sorry for this negative feedback.
Het interieur was anders dan ons via de foto's was voorgespiegeld. Te primitief voor ons. Alles was eigenlijk te krap, vooral de slaapkamer en de badkamer. Eettafel zat los, tikje risky. Eigenlijk een soort sleetse kampeerwagen en ook te duur voor 100 euro per nacht. 80 euro had beter geweest. Sorry voor deze nagatieve feedback.

Perfect. Everything you need and more
Perfect. Alles wat je nodig hebt en meer
The silence, the open space, the greenery, picking plums in the morning for breakfast, enjoying the company of the ratites—everything was just perfect! I really enjoyed this stay and the wonderful hospitality of Monique and Frits. I’d go back in a heartbeat—highly recommended! Thank you!!
De stilte, ruimte, het groen, ‘s morgens pruimen plukken voor je ontbijt, gezellig tussen de loopvogels, alles klopte! Zo genoten van dit verblijf en de fijne gastvrijheid van Monique en Frits. Ik zou zo terug gaan, aanrader! Bedankt!!
