Our forest cottage is on a small vacation park. The nice thing about our place is that it is on the edge of the park overlooking the forest. This gives you the conveniences of the park but you experience peace and quiet at the cottage. Nature, a trendy decor and comfort are the characteristics of our cottage. Both inside and outside you experience this nature, this is noticeable by the decoration and the fact that you can look outside from every room. At the park you can use these facilities: an outdoor pool (from May to Sept.), several playgrounds including an indoor one, a panna cage, table tennis table and there is a small brasserie open on Fri. Sat. and Sun. There is a TV with chromecast, a marley speaker, a l'or coffee machine, various games (both indoor and outdoor), 3 mountain bikes (for the youth) available. This makes you fully equipped and ready for a wonderful vacation.

Nature and surroundings

In and around our cottage are several places to sit outside. So everyone can find their favorite spot in the garden to entertain themselves. Opposite our cottage is directly the forest with several hiking trails, enough for hours of hiking fun. In and around the forest we regularly have deer, various birds, and squirrels visiting. The cottage is located in the forest on the border of the province of Drenthe with Overijssel near the border river the Reest, an ancient stream valley. The Reest is a lowland stream that still has its original course with a very unique character with hay meadows, fields, heaths, forests, estates and monumental farms. In the nearby forest De Zwarte dennen you can enjoy walking and wildlife spotting. In season you can even take a refreshing dip in natural water. For more culture, the trendy Hanseatic city of Zwolle is nearby. Meppel is within cycling distance and is a cozy and lively provincial town with nice stores and terraces.

    The house was very cozy. We loved that the kitchen and living room were together, making it a great spot to hang out. With 7 people in the house, it's definitely full as the bedrooms are small and only 1 bathroom, but definitely doable for a little getaway. We enjoyed being so close to the forest! The vibe was very relaxed in the neighborhood, too. The one thing I'd note is that there is only a microwave oven and not a full oven, so don't plan to make any big oven dishes (like we had haha). But the gas stovetop was huge and great! The owners are also very kinda and communicative. Would definitely reccommed!

    Within 5 steps, you're in the forest! We went in autumn, and the colors were beautiful. The forest has many trails to wander around for hours. We had a lovely time. The neighborhood is very quiet, and you can hear the birds singing throughout the day. :)

    Cozy cottage, equipped with almost all amenities. Quiet place with many trees. Only a few minor points of improvement to mention: Slagboom of the park does not open all night. A freezer would really be a good addition in the summer. Wifi is not available everywhere in the cottage (Found us a plus, but the adolescents obviously a bummer)

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Lovely quiet cottage! We held our hearts when we drove into the quite noisy park, but you notice nothing of that at the cottage itself! Enjoyed 2 weeks as a family with 3 adolescents. Fine that each had its own room. With two steps you are in the woods and you can enjoy walking. Friendly owners who are easy to reach and solve problems quickly. Tip: check whether there are excursions planned with the ranger of the Forestry Commission!

    Lovely cottage, cozy atmosphere and fully equipped! Fine on the edge of the park with lots of greenery and bird sounds. Very much enjoyed!
