    The cottage was unfortunately not as quiet and in nature as we had imagined. The cottage is located directly behind a long house (organic store, cafe, world store). Next to the tiny house is a parking lot for mobile homes (2-5 units) which are also rented out. From the round window of the Tiny you have a direct view. The 6000m² mentioned in the advertisement were only partially usable. The landlord's response: "We recommend that our guests read the advertisement before booking. This shows that the Tiny House is not located somewhere in the forest or that the 6,000 m² are available for the sole use of the Tiny House guests, but that it is built on a building plot within walking distance of the guest parking lot and the utilities. After booking, we also send a detailed version of our house rules with all the important details for a smooth stay. According to the guest, both sources of information were unfortunately not used.

    The surroundings were beautiful. Forest & sea (about 15km away) to go for a walk. The pitch did not quite meet our expectations.

    The urine-diverting toilet is just a little unusual.

    Everything you need in this little house. Very clean and cozy. We would gladly stay again.

    The cottage itself is really small. So bringing too much luggage (especially if you are 4 people!) is really not convenient! There is not much storage space. There could hang more closets, though. For washing clothes, the landlord has recently purchased a 2nd hand washing machine. However, this one does not seem to wash clean. There is also no detergent available (we had detergent with us). We have to pay for electricity and water, and the available terrace is not very nice either. There is a fire pit, but it is relatively close to the table for sitting and eating. If the wind is wrong, you can have a lot of trouble with that. Landlord's comment: We rent our nature house including electricity, gas and water on a natural site of 6,000 m² on the edge of a residential area with traffic connections for cars and public transport, surrounded by forests, but not in the middle of the forest, because that is not allowed. In the coffee garden, which is separated by a small thatched fence, there are no people in the evening to control the evening meal of vacationers, as the café is completely closed from 6:30 p.m. and from Saturday to Monday. In fact, the owners of the property have the ability to enter their property themselves to maintain and cultivate it and to access the other vacation homes. At the request of the Koster family, we have specially installed a fully functional washing machine, for which detergent is on sale in our supermarket.

    A lot of noise from the adjacent road and a lawnmower or garbage truck or the like could often be heard. So all in all not very quiet. We are of the opinion that it therefore does not deserve the "predicate" of nature house. Furthermore, we did not like the fact that you are so on the view. Guests of the café (terrace directly adjacent to the terrace of the Tiny house) could see exactly how you sit and what you are eating in the evening, for example. The owner/landlord also often walks by to get to the other side of the yard. So you have to be able to stand that.
