We have completely renovated the former pigsty of the farm in recent years and furnished it as a lodging; it will be rented out from 2025 to people who want to enjoy Almen and the Achterhoek. The lodge is part of our farm and has all the facilities you need for a longer stay. Light, air and space! With a view through the orchard on the Spitholter bridge over the river Berkel. The ideal place if you want to walk, cycle or enjoy reading a book. Our nature house is 75 m2 and has a spacious kitchen with a dining table. A living room with a sleeping area. And of course a private bathroom with shower, toilet and sink. See photos.
Nature and surroundings
There is plenty to do and experience in the area around Almen. You can follow the footpath along the river Berkel to Natuurmonumenten's Velhorst estate. Walk on the plank path from the Kienveen to the Grote Veld: there you will find heathlands, mountain pines and juniper bushes. This area is also home to the rare stonechat. Along the way you may encounter the sheep of Schaapskudde de Belhamel. Walk the Almens ommetje, or pull yourself across the Berkel by ferry to Staring's tea dome. Our nature house is located on the Berkel: you can swim in the Berkel itself or in the open-air Berkelbad in the village. Museum Staal on the village square tells the story of the Achterhoek poet Staring. In just under half an hour you cycle from Almen through the woods and along stately avenues to Zutphen: a Hanseatic city on the river Ijssel with a beautiful old city center. Museum More (modern realism) in Gorssel is also well worth a visit.

We had a great time in the spacious nature house, located in a quiet and beautiful area. The cottage has the desired amenities.Coming from outside with a bleak outside wind, the cottage felt cozy because of the generously set temperature of the underfloor heating.We were offered a good service (the cottage was not rented beforehand and afterwards): we could arrive a little earlier and go home later.
We hebben ons goed vermaakt in het ruime natuurhuisje, liggend in een rustige en mooie omgeving. Het huisje beschikt over de gewenste voorzieningen.
Komend van buiten met een gure buitenwind voelde het huisje behaaglijk aan door de ruim ingestelde temperatuur van de vloerverwarming.
Ons is een goede service geboden (het huisje was vooraf en achteraf niet verhuurd): wij konden wat vroeger aankomen en later naar huis gaan.This text is automatically translated. -

We enjoyed the tranquility and the spacious, comfortable house. Very nice that it was already pleasantly warm upon arrival. So relaxed that we noticed nothing of the New Year's Eve noise. The weather was not great but we still had a walk in the woods he Almen.
Wij hebben genoten van de rust en het ruime, comfortabele huis. Heel fijn dat het bij aankomst al aangenaam warm was. Zo ontspannen dat we niets van het oudejaars-lawaai hebben gemerkt. Het weer was niet geweldig maar evengoed nog even gewandeld in het bos hij Almen.

The nature house is well furnished and spacious.
Het natuurhuisje is goed en ruim ingericht.
It was wonderful to spend time there. Hiking along the Berkel is highly recommended.
Het was heerlijk om daar te vertoeven. Wandelen langs de Berkel is een aanrader.
