Welcome to our bungalow! The house is located in the woods and an excellent location for exploring the Veluwe on foot or by bike. The house is equipped with a modern kitchen with stove, oven, dishwasher, fridge-freezer and hood. The 1st bathroom with toilet, sink, walk-in shower and radiator is fully tiled. The 2nd bathroom en-suite to the bedroom has a shower, toilet, sink and design radiator. The living room is equipped with a dining table, cozy sitting area and air conditioning. A TV and wifi are available. From the living room you have a view over the terrace and adjacent forest. The terrace with electric awning has an enclosed garden gives lots of privacy. There is also a bicycle shed. Because we want to encourage environmental awareness we charge the consumption costs of gas, water and electricity to our guests, of course without profit surcharge. Unfortunately it still happens that both the heating and air conditioning are turned on ;)

People with germaphobia or fragile health ; better not rent this cottage. Dust nests everywhere, dust threads. Pans were dirty, greasy put back in drawer. Frying pans non-stick coating was broken. Crockery was dirty in the cupboard. Shower: mold and moisture spots everywhere, green deposits. Pictures and videos taken of it. Unhealthy environment. Very chilly cottage, the simple heating could not get the cold out of the cottage. We could hear the neighbors. In terms of disturbance of peace on the first morning: we did not get a serious answer from the owners, who thought we should just "enjoy all the beauty that Otterlo has to offer." Fortunately we did have other good experiences through naturehouse.nl, otherwise I would never book through this site again. Better next time hopefully.....
Mensen met smetvrees of kwetsbare gezondheid ; beter niet dit huisje huren. Overal stofnesten, stofdraden. De pannen waren smerig, vettig in de lade terug gezet. Bakpannen antiaanbaklaag was kapot. Servies stond vuil in de kast. Douche: overal schimmel en vochtplekken, groene aanslag. Foto’s en filmpjes van gemaakt. Ongezonde omgeving. Zeer kouwelijk huisje, de simpele verwarming kon de kou niet uit het huisje krijgen. We konden de buren horen.
Qua verstoring van rust op de eerste ochtend: Vanuit de eigenaren kregen we geen serieus antwoord, die vonden dat we gewoon “van al het moois moesten genieten wat Otterlo te bieden heeft.”
Gelukkig hebben wij wel andere goede ervaringen via Natuurhuisje.nl, anders zou ik ook nooit meer via deze site boeken. Volgende keer beter hopelijk…..The next day at 10 in the morning the cash deposit 150,- is collected, so there is no contactless check-in. Then in the morning another mechanic was sent to the cottage, to fix the leaking radiator in the shower, which did not succeed. So there is no question of rest. The owners saddle you with unwanted visits, even against our request that the mechanic not come by during our stay. We also wondered why we were paying for the final cleaning; it looked like no one had cleaned when we entered the cottage. Beds had been made, though; on the table was a sealed paper with the wifi code on it; the code turned out to be totally incorrect. Eventually we were able to find the code ourselves on the wifi which is in the closet, kind of junk room where there is some cleaning stuff.
De volgende dag om 10 uur in de ochtend wordt de contante borg 150,- opgehaald, dus van contactloos inchecken is geen sprake. Vervolgens werd in de ochtend nog een monteur naar het huisje gestuurd, om de lekkende radiator in de douche te fixen, wat niet gelukt is. Van rust is dus geen sprake. De eigenaren zadelen je op met ongewenst bezoek, zelfs tegen ons verzoek in om de monteur niet tijdens ons verblijf te laten langskomen. Wij vroegen ons ook af waarom we betaalden voor de eindschoonmaak; het leek alsof er niemand schoon had gemaakt toen wij het huisje ingingen. Bedden waren wel opgemaakt.
Op de tafel lag een geseald papier met de wifi code erop; die code bleek totaal niet te kloppen. Uiteindelijk hebben wij zelf de code kunnen vinden op de wifi die in de kast staat, soort rommelhok waar wat schoonmaak spul ligt.This text is automatically translated. -

Cottage is neat (except for some leftover clothes from previous tenants) and equipped with all necessities. One bedroom with bathroom is large and updated. The other two bedrooms are small and dated. The separate bathroom could also use an upgrade.
Huisje is netjes (op wat achtergebleven kleding van vorige huurders na) en van alle benodigdheden voorzien.
Één slaapkamer met badkamer is groot en geupdate. De andere twee slaapkamers zijn klein en gedateerd. Ook de losse badkamer kan een upgrade gebruiken.The cottage is located on a forest path but this path is between 2 busy roads. Noise from traffic is therefore audible throughout the day.
Het huisje bevindt zich aan een bospad maar dit pad ligt tussen 2 drukke wegen in. Geluid van verkeer is dan ook de gehele dag hoorbaar.
