Guests who stayed here find the surroundings fantastic for
Horse riding Mountainbiking Bird watching Cycling Hiking

Welcome to this nature house. Natural resting place in the primeval province of Drenthe. Wake up in a luxury 85m2 vacation home in the middle of the forest and near the heathland between Westerbork and Orvelte. Relax in the outdoor sauna, the whirlpool for two and under the rain shower. Here luxury and sustainability go hand in hand. Thanks to optimal insulation, solar panels, material recycling and innovative reuse of water, you enjoy the best of both worlds. There are two bedrooms, one of which has a box spring of 2.20m. So fine for tall people. The toilet is separate from the bathroom. You can hang your own laptop on the flat screen or watch DVDs. NB: do you book from Friday to Sunday? Then the departure time on Sunday is at 2 p.m. (instead of 10 a.m.) NB2: if you want to book longer than 10 days, please contact Annemarie Houkes directly.

Nature and surroundings

The small-scale recreation park (municipality of Midden-Drenthe) is located on a vast natural plateau and near farmland. Without asphalt or lampposts, where at night the stars can still be counted and also during the day a benevolent peace reigns. Walk on the Orvelterzand or the Melkwegpad past the largest radio telescope in Europe and the largest sandbox in Drenthe. Walk or bike to the museum village of Orvelte or along the dolmens nearby. Tip: our favorite nature reserves in the area are the Orvelterzand (to which we border), the Mantingerzand and the Balloërveld. And of course the National Parks Drents-Friese Wold and Dwingelderveld with various cycling and riding routes, experience trails and tough ATB routes. In the village are a bakery, a nature store with organic and ecological products, two supermarkets, a bookstore, nice home furnishing stores and cozy restaurants. The Drents Museum in Assen is highly recommended.

What does “contactless stay” mean?
You can stay here without personal contact with the host, for example via a key safe or digital access. A contactless stay does not always have to be mandatory.
What does “Fireworks-free” mean?
The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation. You might occasionally hear some noise or see some light from fireworks set off outside the immediate area. It is important that you agree with the landlord on what you can expect.
Selection of activities
After each stay, we invite our guests to rate the nature house, the surroundings, and specific activities. An activity is only shown at a nature house if it meets two conditions: at least 20 unique reviews have been given, and at least 60% of guests gave a score of ‘amazing’ (3/4) or ‘wow’ (4/4).
