On top of the Twente Herikerberg, is the country house with a hectare of private garden. In the woods, but with the bus stop in front of the door. This means that road noise (N573) can be heard inside the cottage. The cottage consists of a living room with French doors to the terrace, two bedrooms, a kitchen and shower with toilet. The bedrooms are small and both have a sink. In one bedroom there is a double bed, in the other two separate single beds. We have a stone floor in the cottage so socks or slippers are nice. The kitchen is equipped with a 4-burner gas stove, a refrigerator, kettle, coffee maker, Nespresso coffee-cup machine, milk frother, dishes, cutlery and a microwave. Please note - there is no oven! Dishwashing is done by hand. Country house ' The Mountain' is not a commercial property. Because the owners do not use it constantly they put it at the disposal of people In the house are therefore personal belongings.

Nature and surroundings

The country house is located in Twente between Markelo and Goor on the Herikerberg. Rolling ashes, streams and camps together with the wooded banks, hills and forests provide a very varied landscape. The small-scale coulisse landscape with meandering rivers such as the Dinkel and the Regge, are a feast for the eyes. Around the cottage are large forests and beautiful rolling hills. From the cottage not only long walks can be made, but also beautiful bike rides. Both through nature and past castles. The 6 castles route around Diepenheim, begins a few 100 meters from the cottage (at Landhuishotel Herikerberg). After 15 minutes walking you can see beautiful loam pits and if you continue you can have a drink at the ancient inn 'De Pot'. The moors on the Sallandse Heuvelrug (near Holten) are breathtaking in the flowering season.

    The bedrooms and bathroom are simple, but the decoration of the living room is cozy and the kitchen is equipped with everything you can think of. Because you get to use their music and books, you feel right at home. We did have the heating on for a while the first night, because it was somewhat damp in the house. The feeling of being in the middle of the forest makes the experience great!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5/5

    You really stay here in the middle of nature in a cozy cottage. The garden/forest plot behind and around the house is fantastic! Even though we had bad weather, we enjoyed it.

    Maybe good cleaning New curtains. Nice paint color and all the stuff out. Then the price can also go up Response from host: Dear Janette, What a pity to hear that the stay did not quite meet your expectations. The noise of the road can indeed be audible - we therefore also clearly mention this in the description of the cottage, so guests know in advance what to expect. As also stated in the information: this is a real family cottage, with many memories and a personal atmosphere. We consciously choose to keep that character. This means that we do not work with standard furnishings or large-scale adjustments, such as replacing curtains or removing personal items. That is exactly what makes the house so special for many guests. Raising the price is not a goal for us either. Thanks for your feedback - all feedback helps us stay clear in what we offer.

    Nature, peace & environment: 4/5

    It was a very nice place just too bad about the busy road. The cottage was not clean and very messy with a lot of stuff. That is not nice
