Our nature house is part of a monumental farm complex dating from 1780, formerly a Havezathe. One farmhouse was recently converted into two beautiful, sustainable lodges, which can also be booked together for a cozy get-together.The tastefully decorated very spacious 191m2 lodge has an open living area with modern kitchen and cooking island and a separate study. The old trusses in each room create a warm atmosphere. The lodge has 2 double beds of 210 cm and a single bed. And for your wellness there is a large 5p sauna in a luxurious bathroom with bathtub. The lodge has a covered indoor terrace, where you can enjoy breakfast. Outside is a beautiful gazebo with a spacious lounge/seating/dining area where you can enjoy the beautiful views of meadow and girth. There is a spacious parking lot with universal charging station. In consultation it is possible to use the wood-fired outdoor pizza oven. In short, here you will find everything: relaxation, comfort and coziness.

The entire property is fenced in by old oaks, poplars and beeches. From the location there is plenty of hiking and biking opportunities. Within 25 kilometers you will find the old Hanseatic cities Doesburg and Zutphen and the oldest town Bronckhorst, Vorden with the eight castles route, Castle Ruurlo with Museum Moore and s'-Heerenbergh with Castle Bergh. Or enjoy long walks in Montferland, at Castle Slangenburg or at 't Zand near Ruurlo. It is not for nothing that the Pieterpad runs through Zelhem. Golf club t "Zelle is also nearby. Zelhem has several good restaurants and the liveliest village square in the Achterhoek. At 6 km away is the city of Doetinchem with cinema, theater and even more dining options.

    Beautifully converted stable. Outside authentic and inside a modern loft with all modern conveniences. And beautifully decorated. Nice workspace for remote work, fine large luxury bathroom, beautiful kitchen.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    What a beautiful place! Beautiful view over the fields, the birds, hares, deer. And only a few minutes from the village for groceries. And half an hour's drive from Doesburg, a.o. We did the NS walk from Dieren to Velp. And if we walk the stage of the Pieterpad in this area we will definitely come back. Also wonderful bike rides through the woods, along the fields and the IJssel.

    It looks beautiful and basically everything is there. The quality is high: nice chairs, nice beds, spacious and kitchen is fully equipped. But for 5 people 1 toilet and 1 bathroom is just too little. I also found the open bedroom less so. It is noisy and quite light.

    Nature, peace & environment: 4 /5

    The surroundings are okay. You don't step out of the house and you are right at a nice walking route. Zelhem is a cute little town and Doetinchem is also very nice for an afternoon.

    Lovely place. Do personally regret that you can't take a walk in the woods in the immediate area.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Beautifully furnished farmhouse, an ocean of space. Is nice and free (and quiet so), but with the car you are also so close to villages in the area. Or you can go for a nice walk at Castle Slangenburg.
