Nature house in Doorn
Utrecht, Netherlands
- 4 persons
- 2 bedrooms
- WiFi
- Pets allowed
Our cottage is a family piece, which has been nicely modernized. The touches from the 50s and 70s that were nice have been kept, modern things have been added. It has got a retro style because of this.The terrace is fenced, useful with children or dogs. It is really a small house, 5 x 7 meters, with an annex containing a bathroom and a barn. You have to go through one of the bedrooms to the bathroom. There is a loft where, although you can not stand, you can watch TV in bad weather. It is located in a forest, so is shady in the summer. A small playground can be used within walking distance. You cannot get to the cottage by car. You have to carry luggage there by wheelbarrow along a forest path of 100 meters. In early 2024 the terrace was redone, creating more outdoor space.

When we booked this cottage, I thought we could walk straight into the woods from there to walk the dogs, but that wasn't the case—to get to a real forest, you have to walk quite a bit farther or drive a short distance. There are still plenty of options for walking your dog, though.
Toen we dit huisje boekte dacht ik dat we van daaruit meteen een bos in konden lopen om de honden uit te laten dat was niet zo, voor een echt bos moet je een stuk verder lopen of een stukje met de auto rijden. Wel genoeg mogelijkheden om je hond uit te laten.
The cottage was wonderfully cozy and comfortably furnished; it was a bit damp when we arrived, but there’s a lovely wood stove as well as electric heaters in almost every room, so it dried out quickly. Beautiful garden with heather—it was nice that the dogs could run around and play there too. There’s a lovely garden bench with comfortable cushions where you can relax and enjoy the weather when it’s nice.
We had a wonderful stay and would love to come back again.Het huisje was heerlijk knus en gezellig ingericht, het was wat vochtig bij binnenkomst maar er staat een heerlijke houtkachel met houd maar ook electrische kachels in bijna iedere kamer dus het was er zo uit. Mooi o.heide tuin, het was fijn dat de honden ook daar lekker konden lopen en spelen. Een hele mooie tuinbank met heerlijke kussens maar je met mooi weer heerlijk kunt genieten.
Een heerlijk verblijf gehad en we komen graag nog een keer terug.This text is automatically translated. -

Although there are plenty of forests, the number of areas where dogs can run free is limited. You'll need to drive there from the cottage.
Hoewel er volop bossen zijn, is het aantal losloopgebieden voor honden beperkt. Vsnuit het huisje moet je daar met de auto naartoe.
A small but charming house in a small-scale park set in beautiful surroundings.
Klein maar fijn huis op een kleinschalig park in een prachtige omgeving.

A truly cozy cabin in the woods with authentic features but modern amenities, such as a kitchen, toilets, and a bathroom.
Echt een knus boshuis met authentieke elementen maar moderne voorzieningen, zoals keuken, toileten badkamer.
The cottage was nestled among the trees, surrounded by complete tranquility. There are only 10 cottages in the forest, and you can’t see the others.
Het huisje stond midden tussen de bomen, alle rust in de omgeving. Er staan maar 10 huisjes in het bos en je ziet elkaar niet.
