Welcome to this nature house, a beautiful place that has been in the family for nearly 100 years! The wooden cottage was thoroughly renovated and made more sustainable in 2023. It has everything you need for a wonderful vacation: the charm of the past combined with modern conveniences, just a 5-minute walk from the village center, yet completely surrounded by nature with plenty of peace and space. The house can accommodate 4 to a maximum of 10 people (including babies). The house is 164 m² and features 5 bedrooms, a kitchen, dining room, living room, 2 bathrooms, and a large south-facing veranda and garden. There’s also a place to store your bike if desired. Parking is available on the property. The nature house sits on 8,706 m² of private property. The garden features a lawn that’s perfect for playing on. From the veranda, you can enjoy wonderful birdwatching. Children can build forts in the woods. There are plenty of toys and games available, both for indoors and outdoors.

    A lovely, characterful family home with a nice porch and a nice lawn where you can, for example, play kubben, set up a kiddie pool for the little ones, or bounce on the trampoline.

    Nature, peace & environment: 4 /5

    This charming house is located on the edge of a forest, with a spacious residential neighborhood behind it. The neighborhood is not visible because of the trees and shrubs that surround the house.

    In the immediate vicinity of the house you can make nice little walks, to walk further it is better to go to the Balloer field or further north. The immediate agricultural area of Rolde was unfortunately not very pleasant we found. We were there in early June, and apparently that was the time for the farmers in the area to spray poison on their fields. That was very unfortunate and prevented us from cycling much.

    Nature, peace & environment: 4 /5

    The house itself is fantastic. It is an old house with lots of character. The beautiful old Bruijnzeel kitchen evoked memories and was excellent for cooking for 8 people. We felt it was a privilege to stay there and it felt like we were allowed to stay there. It is a beautiful and spacious family home. It was clean and comfortable. Beds were fine. Everything you need is there. Contact with the owner was quick, accurate and friendly. The garden is lovely. (Lots of mosquitoes, but you can keep that in mind).

    Unfortunately, there were a lot of mosquitoes and we had to keep the house well closed. Also, there were a lot of ticks around the house and in the woods.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    This detached house with 5 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and a large garden all around was our dream house for a long Pentecost weekend with nice weather. We just sat in the garden and on the veranda. The children had a great time on the trampoline and with the available toys. Great also that there is a good bakery and supermarket within walking distance. From the house there are also beautiful walks in the area. We liked the atmosphere of the old hunting lodge with its historical details. We found it a privilege to stay in such an old family house. Take the long tables, many chairs, well-equipped kitchen and large refrigerator: everything is there for a nice stay with 10 people.
