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.

Heidi July 18, 2025 General rating:The cottage is very outdated and badly in need of refurbishment. The value for money is not right. The place is dusty, dark and lots of dog hair. Outside, the terrace was in need of a sweep. The owner is friendly. Response from landlord: Too bad this lady did not feel comfortable in our forest cottage. A lot of maintenance has been done recently and the terrace had been swept the previous weekend. Apparently not a match.
Het huisje is sterk verouderd en heeft dringend een opknapbeurt nodig. De prijs-kwaliteit verhouding klopt niet. Het is er stoffig, donker en veel hondenharen. Buiten was het terras aan een veegbeurt toe. De eigenaar is vriendelijk.
Reactie van verhuurder:
Jammer dat deze dame zich niet prettig voelde in ons boshuisje. Er is recent veel onderhoud gedaan en het terras was nog het vorig weekend geveegd. Kennelijk geen match.Nature, peace & environment:The cottage is on a small and quiet property with many trees.
Het huisje staat op een klein en rustig terrein met veel bomen.

Het is een huisje waar ik van hou: inrichting is mix van modern en retro.
Kleine keuken, maar zeer compleet, werkelijk alles is aanwezig.
Heel prettig contact met de eigenaresse.
Hoop er zeker nog eens terug te komenNature, peace & environment:The cottage is located in a forest plot in a small residential area. It is quiet, at night you can hear owls.Nature is within reach: just cross the (provincial) road and you walk straight into the forest
Het huisje ligt in een bosperceel op een kleinschalige camping, in een kleine woonwijk. Het is er rustig, in de nacht hoor je uilen.
De natuur is binnen handbereik: even de (provinciale) weg oversteken en je loopt zo het bos inThis text is automatically translated. -
Marjan August 1, 2024 General rating:Cozy house. Authentic and at the same time all the comforts. And above all the tranquility.
Knus huis. Authentiek en tegelijkertijd alle comfort. En vooral de rust.
Nature, peace & environment:In the middle of the country and then this peace. Lovely cycling to Amerongen, Leersum and Wijk bij duurstede. And of course Doorn itself with the beautiful Arboretum and so the woods. Lots to see and do.
Midden in het land en dan deze rust. Heerlijk fietsen naar Amerongen, Leersum en Wijk bij duurstede. En Doorn natuurlijk zelf met het prachtige Arboretum en zo de de bossen in. Veel te zien en te doen.
