The in 2018 restyled Nature House is located on 3000m2 of private forest land in the middle of the National Park Drents Friese Wold in the village called Oude Willem in Drenthe near the border with Friesland. The Nature House has 4 bedrooms and can accommodate 8 people. On request there is a crib, playpen and highchair available. After a fresh walk in the woods, relax on the extremely spacious sofa by the warm crackling fire. In the cozy conservatory you will find a large wooden table where you can easily eat with 8 people, play games and enjoy a great wooded view at the same time. After a bike ride or hike you can take a nice hot bath or shower upstairs in the second bathroom overlooking the forest.

    It was a very nice cottage. We were there at the turn of the year and nice that it was decorated with a Christmas tree and garlands. We didn't quite get the heating (it stayed stone cold upstairs in the bathroom), but overall it was very cozy and clean.

    It was a wonderful, wooded area with lots of great trail runs and hikes in the immediate area! Pure enjoyment!

    The cottage is fine only when we arrived it smelled very damp.The floor was not clean,our granddaughter likes to walk on her socks and often bare feet.They were very dirty very quickly.Other than that it was clean. We could not turn on the TV because the batteries in the remote were dead according to us, it did not respond.

    Beautifully situated in the middle of the forest. Beautiful surroundings and quiet and nice that you can walk straight from the house into nature.

What does “Fireworks-free” mean?
The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation. You might occasionally hear some noise or see some light from fireworks set off outside the immediate area. It is important that you agree with the landlord on what you can expect.

After each stay, we invite our guests to rate the nature house, the surroundings, and specific activities. An activity is only shown at a nature house if it meets two conditions: at least 20 unique reviews have been given, and at least 60% of guests gave a score of ‘amazing’ (3/4) or ‘wow’ (4/4).
