Totally original, smart and comfortable converted feed silo. Boho-style furnishings with comfortable chairs, a cozy wood stove and a charming table for two create a warm and inviting ambiance. French doors lead to a grand outdoor with private bank, covered outdoor kitchen and picnic table, where you can enjoy cooking and dining, overlooking idyllic Lake Pingo. In addition to fire pit, hammock and chairs, a canoe is on the horizon. In addition to the outdoor kitchen, everything is available inside for making a cup of coffee or tea. Sleep under the stars: in the evening you fold down the freshly made double bed, where you can still gaze at the stars through the sky dome. The Silo is fully insulated, has underfloor heating and wood stove and can therefore be enjoyed all year round. Additional bookings include a wood-fired sauna, breakfast, firewood and regularly scheduled meals and workshops. WiFi is available in the Wifi-Woods

Nature and surroundings

This Nature House is located in a 20 ha forest, at the edge of a Pingo Lake. Besides relaxing here, enjoying the forest and on/on the water, this place is a perfect base to discover the beauty of Drenthe. Near megalithic tombs, forest lakes like Gasselterveld and the beautiful blue lake of 't Nije Hemelriek. Furthermore, you can meet the sheep herd on the heath, mountain biking, take up the challenge in the climbing park a little further away, and make beautiful canoe trips. Besides the authentic villages, the cities Groningen, Assen and Emmen are also worth a visit. In the Silo you will find a mini-VVV with information about the area, personal tips for e.g. local products and books, about the Hondsrug, nature guide and beautiful stories and poems.

    Every day we were bothered by mosquitoes in the silo. A screen would have been nice, but this has not negatively affected the experience.

    Twice, the rope of the hammock had snapped, causing me to land on the ground on my tailbone. Very painful. Fortunately, after a call they came to fix it right away. Immediately upon arrival there was also a bee nest in the kitchen cupboard. They also removed that right away after calling. When I wanted to go boating, one of the seats of the canoe was broken. I informed them of this as well. When sailing back and docking, it is difficult to get back on shore, making a wet foot and leg almost inevitable.

    The cottage itself is small, which was to be expected. Not a lot of storage space so that was a bit of a struggle. The space around the cottage and the nature made everything worthwhile. As long as it was dry, I could sit outside looking out over the lake. The kitchenette was small but fine to work with for a few days. The refrigerator was very cold so things were frozen. The water point is a few feet away as are the toilets. The bed is advertised as possibly being big enough for two people, but is about the size of a queen-size bed. On your own it is a wonderfully spacious bed which also lies well. I have had a wonderful few days and am completely rested.

    I found the cottage to be very comfortable. Everything you need to live back to basics is there. Bed is fine.

    The nature house, the tranquility it offers was beyond my expectations. The setting, the location, the staff, the guests. My view every morning over the lake, even with rain was fantastic. The only regret was the traffic on the adjacent road. Unfortunately, there is nothing the campground can do about that. It didn't make it any less magical for me personally with my view, the nature, the forest, the dragonflies I saw flying over the water. Every night the front basket on. I found everything tidy and slept wonderfully with the starry window I could see through. The bed is lovely and well-served. If it wasn't for the traffic this place would get a big 10 plus from me. I will definitely go back!
