The nature house is situated in a rustic setting on the edge of the “Natura 2000” area “Stroomdallandschap Drentse Aa,” centrally located near the beautiful Drenthe Path (300 km), the oldest hiking trail in the Netherlands, and right next to the country’s largest network of bike paths.

That's great!
Erg prettig!
We had a wonderful stay! The cottage is fully equipped and furnished; they’ve thought of just about everything. The bed was incredibly comfortable thanks to the great mattress. Plus, everything looked neat and well-maintained.
The garden is beautiful and the view is wonderfully peaceful, allowing you to truly relax. The owners are friendly and hospitable.
The location is also ideal. Both Assen and Hooghalen are easily accessible by bike. All in all, a lovely place where we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!Wij hebben een prettig verblijf gehad! Het huisje is van alle gemakken voorzien en compleet ingericht, aan vrijwel alles is gedacht. Het bed sliep heerlijk dankzij het fijne matras. Daarnaast zag alles er netjes en verzorgd uit.
De tuin is prachtig en het uitzicht is heerlijk rustig, waardoor je echt kunt ontpannen. De eigenaren zijn vriendelijk en gastvrij.
Ook de ligging is ideaal. Zowel Assen als Hooghalen zijn prima met de fiets te bereiken. Al met al een fijne plek waar we met veel plezier hebben verbleven!This text is automatically translated. -

The cottage is perfect for two people. Beautiful surroundings, within biking distance of Assen if you feel like visiting the city. A perfect base for hiking and biking in the region.
Train traffic might be an issue for some. During the day, it does indeed disturb the peace a few times an hour. I sleep with earplugs (which, by the way, are also provided in the cottage), so I get an undisturbed night’s sleep. I even slept through a heavy thunderstorm during my stay...Huisje is prima voor twee personen. Mooie omgeving, op fietsafstand van Assen mocht je behoefte hebben aan de stad. Perfecte uitvalsbasis voor wandelen en fietsen in de regio.
Treinverkeer kan voor sommigen een punt zijn. Overdag verstoort het inderdaad een paar keer per uur de rust. Slaap zelf met oordopjes (die overigens ook in het huisje liggen) en dus een ongestoorde nachtrust. Heb zelfs tijdens mijn verblijf door een fikse onweersstorm geslapen...A modern cottage where just about every detail has been taken care of. The very friendly owners even go the extra mile by providing tea, coffee, eggs, and wine.
Modern ingericht huisje waarbij zo'n beetje aan alles is gedacht. De zeer vriendelijke eigenaren gaan zelfs een stapje verder met klaarzetten van thee, koffie, eitjes en wijn.

Beautiful accommodation, tastefully decorated, and well-equipped. Comfortable beds, a lovely view, and very pleasant communication with the hosts. They are very helpful and approachable.
Prachtige accomodatie, met smaak ingericht, goed geoutilleerd. Heerlijke bedden, mooi uitzicht, heel prettig contact met de verhuurders. Zijn heel behulpzaam en toegankelijk.
Beautiful surroundings. Even though a train passes by, we slept soundly and weren't bothered by it at all.
Prachtige omgeving. Hoewel er een trein langs komt, hebben we heerlijk geslapen en geen last van de trein gehad.
