Nature and surroundings

The Drents-Friese Wold is one of the largest and most diverse nature reserves in the Netherlands. From the chalet, you step right into a landscape full of variety: dense forests, vast heathlands, and impressive sand drifts. Every season offers something unique, from the purple of the blooming heather in summer to the warm colors of fall. Hikers and cyclists can enjoy an extensive network of trails here, leading you past babbling brooks, tranquil ponds, and breathtaking viewpoints. Along the way, you can spot roe deer in the woods, listen to birdsong, or simply enjoy the silence. On clear nights, the open countryside offers a dazzling starry sky—an experience you won’t soon forget. The Drents-Friese Wold is the ideal place to unwind and lose yourself completely in the beauty of Dutch nature.

    You’ll get a warm welcome when you arrive—in our case, from the owner, Gea—and the cottage is super cozy. Even when it’s cold outside, it’s warm and cozy inside. For me, as a bird lover, it’s absolutely wonderful because there are the most beautiful birds everywhere.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    In a word: amazing. The location is fantastic, and the cottage is cozy and comfortable, with all the amenities you could need.

    Very warm welcome, very helpful owners. They live behind the chalet, which is very convenient if you have any questions. In short, a cozy chalet. There’s a road behind the chalet where people sometimes drive very fast.

    We had a wonderful week here. It was sweltering in the chalet, and Rob came right over to bring us a third fan. The chalet is located under the trees, so there’s plenty of shade. We really wanted to barbecue, and Rob and Gea let us borrow their grill. A bag of charcoal was already waiting for us. There are remote controls for everything, and it took us a while to figure them out. Unfortunately, there was no manual for the combination oven, and Rob didn’t know how it worked, so we couldn’t use it. We were woken up in the morning by the chirping of many little birds. After a sweltering and noisy weekend at the TT, it was nice to unwind in the evenings in a quiet setting. Judging by the photos, we thought the chalet was located on a campground, but that wasn’t the case, which allowed us to truly unwind. Rob mentioned that the chalet is getting brand-new wood paneling all around and that the bathroom is being renovated. The latter is a good idea, because the bathroom is very small. So we’re really curious to see what it will look like then.

You can stay here without personal contact with the host, for example via a key safe or digital access. A contactless stay does not always have to be mandatory.
