This Nature House has a rich history. The Kerkhoven family who bought 't Gagel around 1890 built the dome. The family owned a tea plantation in Java (Hella S. Haasse writes about it in her book De Heren van de Thee), and came to Holland once a year to discuss here the figures that the brewing farmer consulted with them. By now the farmers themselves are at the helm at 't Gagel. The dome is now a luxury apartment where 2 people can experience history in a new regenerative setting. There is a spacious bath, a blissful bed and your own private woodland garden with a fire pit - an ideal place to unwind or write a book.

Nature and surroundings

Located on the unpaved Gageldijk, with old beech trees surrounding the dome and further on overlooking the beautiful coulisse landscape of the Achterhoek. The cottage is located in the yard of a regenerative farm, nicely hidden behind hedges and between trees in a quiet and peaceful spot in the yard. Plenty of privacy, but also many hiking and biking trails nearby to get out and about. Lochem is a beautiful historic town with many amenities.

    It was a top cottage! Wood you can buy there, nice fire and a super nice atmosphere. In the yard of a farm but heerijk private. Really thought of everything. Checking in was a bit of a search, but Rose or someone else is in the yard! Delicious bath and delicious products in the farm shop

    What a beautiful, historic cottage in a great place. The cottage is equipped with all amenities. The bed sleeps well and it is surprising to discover a luxury bathroom next to the bedroom with a bathtub. And interesting to learn about the farm.

    We spent a weekend enjoying the cottage and the surroundings. It is a wonderfully peaceful environment. We went to several circuits, hiked and ate pancakes at Erve Brooks.
