Nature and surroundings

The house is in the middle of the forest and has over 6000m2 of private land. This gives you a lot of privacy so you can enjoy the peace and quiet of nature. Less than 500 meters away you enter an area of 6,100 hectares known as National Park The Drents Friese Wold. Here you will find numerous hiking and cycling routes. Nearby is also the Dwingelderveld, another beautiful National Park. Stages of the Drenthepad are also highly recommended. Less than 4 kilometers away is the cozy village of Diever, which is equipped with all conveniences, including a supermarket, drugstore, several restaurants, not to mention the best ice cream in the region (highly recommended!) In the summer months there is also a weekly lively market in the village. Diever may also seem familiar to you because of the unique, annual 'Shakespeare plays'. Tips from the kids ; 1. The forest pool in Appelscha 2. Klimbos in Appelscha 3 Amusement park in Duinen Zathe 4. Playing at the house

    Everything was fine

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    We had a wonderful weekend with warm weather, so the air conditioning in the cottage came in handy. The description of the cottage is spot on. The cottage is beautifully bright with plenty of space for 4 adults.
    Outside, there are several seating areas so you can sit in both the shade and the sun all day long.

    A little slice of paradise!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    What a beautiful house with a huge, gorgeous garden! Greenery everywhere and tall trees all around you. So idyllic.
    The photos really don’t lie.

    When you see the house from the driveway, it already radiates so much warmth—it’s unbelievable! Very inviting.

    There’s so much to take in—this forest home offers such comfort, luxury, and warmth. The large windows in every room, in particular, make the view truly special. You really feel like you’re right in the middle of nature. Wonderful!!!

    So these past 5 days, it’s been a real treat to be here every single day!

    Thank you so much, Natasja and Marc, for your hospitality!

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.
