This apartment is located on a dirt road 150mtr from the paved road in the middle of fields and meadows on a wooded plot under large old trees. It is a complete but simply furnished apartment with spacious living / bedroom with 2pers. bed and a study with shielded sleeping area with 2 pers. bunk beds. For your own use outside you have access to a large private (partially covered) terrace with a fire pit under the protective spreading canopy of the large alder and oak trees that grew up together. Adjacent is a large garden of 300m2. bordered by laurel hedge where you can make your own seat at any desired spot. In the evening you can take a lovely evening stroll barefoot on the dirt road and enjoy the view to the wide distances and experience the deep peace and quiet of this unique place.
Nature and surroundings
At 1 km. distance the beautiful stream the Ruiten Aa meanders through the vast wild meadows. A little further on there is a small jetty where you can launch a canoe for an adventurous trip towards Ter Borg, a hamlet with a number of old authentic Saxon farms. At a distance of 2 km. our street, over the game grids, turns into an old dirt road that traditionally runs through a forest estate of some 750ha. Here are vast moors with the original fens in between, around which the free grazing of free-roaming sheep and Scottish Highlanders provide the maintenance. At 4.5 km. cycling through the forestry Ter Borg you come to the village of Sellingen where there is still a small supermarket. This village lies on a sandbank and is surrounded on the west side by the beautiful Sellinger woods, along which the river Aa also flows. 3 km away is the Beetsestrand, a beautiful lake with clean, clear swimming water for a refreshing dive.

Annika October 18, 2025 General rating:We really only needed an overnight stay. It was a lovingly decorated cottage which met our expectations well enough.
We hadden echt alleen een overnachting nodig.
Het was een liefdevolle ingericht huisje wat aan onze verwachtingen goed voldoende.Nature, peace & environment:By chance there was a party next to us that night, but for us it was not disturbing. We were still explained by the homeowner, very nice.
Toevallig was er een feestje naast ons die nacht, maar voor ons was het niet storend.
We waren nog toegelicht door de huiseigenaar, heel aardig.This text is automatically translated. -

Inge September 4, 2024 General rating:Large old-growth forest with lots of untouched nature. Forests with beautiful hiking trails. Beautiful miles of vast meandering stream valley with again completely natural water course along which you may walk everywhere, magnificent. Near the apartment is a jetty to put canoe in water. There are many bicycle and montainbiker routes but we traversed the unknown and rugged terrain along the stream on foot. We saw unusual birds, a fox sneaking out of its den nearby and a group of deer hiding in a grove of century-old oaks. The heliophyte filter near Sellingen with large reed beds provides natural water purification of the incoming canal water over primeval grounds in this area unique to the Netherlands.
Grote oerboswachterij met veel ongerepte natuur. Bossen met mooie wandelpaden. Prachtig kilometerslang uitgestrekt meanderend beekdal met weer volledig natuurlijke waterloop waarlangs je overal mag wandelen, schitterend. Vlakbij het appartement is een aanlegsteiger om kano in water te laten. Er zijn vele fiets-en montainbikeroutes maar wij hebben het onbekende en ruige terrein langs de beek te voet doorkruist. We zagen bijzondere vogeltjes, een vos vlakbij uit z'n hol sluipen en een groepje reeën die zich in een bosje met eeuweoude eiken schuilhielden. Het heliofytenfilter bij Sellingen met grote rietvelden zorgt voor de natuurlijke waterzuivering van het instromende kanaalwater over oergronden in dit voor Nederland unieke gebied.
Nature, peace & environment:Truly beautiful place with spacious covered outdoor terrace under the trees. evenings sat outside by the fire in complete silence, and then that starry sky on the dirt road, impressive! Beautiful walk through the countryside along the creek. The sympathetic landlord was very helpful in giving hiking tips for the area but otherwise left us completely alone.The apartment itself was spacious and clean and the beds very comfortable. For us a very special experience and we will definitely return.
Werkelijk prachtige plek met ruim overdekt buitenterras onder de bomen.'s Avonds heerlijk buiten gezeten bij het vuurtje in volstrekte stilte, en dan die sterrenhemel op het zandpad, indrukwekkend!
Prachtige wandeling gemaakt door het oerlandschap langs de beek.
De sympathieke verhuurder was zeer behulpzaam met geven van wandeltips voor de omgeving maar liet ons verder helemaal met rust.Het appartement zelf was ruim en schoon en de bedden erg confortabel. Voor ons een zeer bijzondere ervaring en we komen zeker weer terug.This text is automatically translated.
