We are proud to offer this nature house to our guests for overnight stays. We have carefully renovated this old barn into a comfortable vacation home. Windows span the full width of the east side of the Koetshuis, offering a stunning view of the sunrise and the beautiful Drenthe farmland. On the ground floor, in addition to the living area, you’ll find a dining area, a kitchen, a shower, and a separate toilet. The sleeping area is located on the spacious mezzanine, which features two single beds. The nature house also features a southwest-facing terrace for your use. We do not serve breakfast at the nature house.

Nature and surroundings

This nature house is located between Old and New Veenhuizen. The road past the Coach House leads you to the prison museum, which is well worth a visit. Be sure not to miss a ride on the prison convict bus. In the village, you’ll find a cozy restaurant, a tea garden, a brewery, a fry shop, a gift shop, a cheese factory, and the Gardens of Charity. The area around Veenhuizen offers extensive hiking trails and bike routes. Various hiking and biking guides are available. You can start your hike or bike ride right from the Koetshuis. The Fochtelooerveen nature reserve is a 5-minute bike ride from Veenhuizen. In Veenhuizen, the Tourist Information Center is located in the old slaughterhouse.

    The cottage is located on the edge of the forest, which is great if you have a pet. Peaceful surroundings.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    A wonderful stay—it had everything we needed and plenty of space. The hosts were lovely, and we felt right at home.

    We had a lovely and enjoyable stay, but unfortunately we had to head home.
    We went birdwatching a lot; thanks to its location among several nature parks, it’s a great base. If you’re there at the right time (spring), you might be in for a nice surprise.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    A very pleasant little cottage to stay in, with sweeping views in a peaceful setting. Within walking distance of Veenhuizen, and just a few minutes away from several nature reserves. Very friendly and helpful hosts.
    The downsides are the small bathroom (though, after an explanation, it’s understandable why) and the steep staircase leading to the bedroom.
    Definitely recommended for anyone looking for peace and nature.
