Guests who stayed here find the surroundings fantastic for
Fishing Horse riding Mountainbiking Walk the dog Bird watching Cycling Hiking

Waking up in the middle of a forest and near the moor. Walking along the Milky Way trail past the largest radio telescopes in Europe and the largest sandbox in Drenthe. Cycling to monument village Orvelte or past the dolmens in the area. It's all possible if you book your weekend away or your (mini) vacation in bungalow De Specht. This bungalow has 3 bedrooms and a spacious living room with kitchen. Washer and dryer are available. For small children it is the ideal place for outdoor play and cycling. In November 2024, the bathroom will be completely renewed! So if you book after December 1, you will have the luxury of a nice shower and new plumbing.

Nature and surroundings

The small-scale recreation park De Oostermaat (municipality of Midden-Drenthe) is located on a vast natural plateau and near farmland. Without asphalt or lampposts, where at night the stars can still be counted and also during the day a benevolent peace reigns. The bungalow is at the end of a cul-de-sac, so there is only local traffic. From the park are beautiful cycling and walking routes. There are no facilities at the park. But in Westerbork, 2km away, is an outdoor swimming pool, several restaurants and stores.

    We took some nice walks. Not only in nature, but walking to the center of Westerbork is also good to do. The cupboards are well stocked with everything needed and with any questions you get a quick response. Very nice, we had a wonderful weekend and already booked for next year. That says it all.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Cottage the Woodpecker is in the middle of nature, with only a few cottages around it. It is spacious, so we had a wonderful long weekend. Good beds, a nice bathroom with nice shower. Because the dining table is round, you sit cozily close together.

What does “contactless stay” mean?
You can stay here without personal contact with the host, for example via a key safe or digital access. A contactless stay does not always have to be mandatory.
What does “Fireworks-free” mean?
The host indicates that the area is firework-free. Firework-free means that no firework bangs can be heard in and around the accommodation. You might occasionally hear some noise or see some light from fireworks set off outside the immediate area. It is important that you agree with the landlord on what you can expect.
Selection of activities
After each stay, we invite our guests to rate the nature house, the surroundings, and specific activities. An activity is only shown at a nature house if it meets two conditions: at least 20 unique reviews have been given, and at least 60% of guests gave a score of ‘amazing’ (3/4) or ‘wow’ (4/4).
