In the yard of our converted forest farmhouse is this cozy tiny house. The forest path begins at the end of the garden, deer graze all around and birds chirp. The cottage has a loft (accessible by steep stairs, headroom 1.70m) with a double bed and for a third guest the couch downstairs can be made into a bed. You will also find in the cottage a gas stove, combi-oven/microwave, refrigerator, filter coffee maker and kettle. It is heated by a gas stove. Toilet and shower are located 5 meters from the cottage in the large house (exclusive use for guests). There are garden chairs at the cottage and a BBQ can be borrowed. Towels, kitchen linen and bed linen are included. In the kitchen, basic foodstuffs (coffee/tea/rice/oil etc) are provided for use, with the principle of "replenish as you use something up." There is a bookcase with books and games. Optional DIY breakfast: bake-off breads, fresh eggs, fresh orange juice, fruit, sugar bread, etc.

Nature and surroundings

The forests of Beetsterzwaag are large and have many hiking possibilities. The cottage is also right on the LAW Zevenwoudenpad. In addition, there are many bicycle routes around Beetsterzwaag and bicycles can be borrowed. There also starts a challenging mountain bike route of 31km at 300m from the cottage (mtb for rent in the village). In the vegetable garden and our small greenhouse we try to grow vegetables, we also have a herb garden and a large garden with fruit trees and a natural pond. There are 6 cozy chickens walking freely through the garden. In the village (1km away) is a supermarket, bakery, drugstore and you will find several restaurants and boutiques. Beetsterzwaag is a 30-minute drive from the Frisian lakes where you can rent sloops and sailing boats and also a half-hour drive from the cities of Leeuwarden & Groningen. In general, it is wonderfully quiet around the cottage, but we do sit next to a working farm and in addition we can hear the highway if the wind is wrong.

    Going to the bathroom at night is a bit of a hassle, especially if you have to go a few times

    What a wonderful little spot! The cottage has clearly been decorated with love; it’s very well-maintained, clean, and really cozy. It has everything you need.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    The cottage is located on a property next to the main house, but you have plenty of privacy. A spotted woodpecker had a nest in the tree next to the cottage, and the forest is very close by. Beetsterzwaag is a beautiful and lively little village.

    Perfect. We were there when the sun was shining. Plenty of shade. Peaceful, beautiful garden. The deer were roaming through the garden in the evening. We really enjoyed ourselves.
