5/5

This family-friendly and pet-friendly cottage is wonderfully sheltered in the woods on the outskirts of the village of Havelte. The cottage is completely on one level, has two bedrooms, a living room/kitchen and a bathroom with toilet and shower.In the large garden, several spots and terraces have been created with the cozy outdoor greenhouse as the final piece for extra living space and a unique stay.Both in the cottage and outside, wood is the magic word: the cottage is built on the inside with beautiful wooden boards and there are two large old oaks in the garden. At the outdoor table it is nice to eat outside, which meal you can prepare on the barbecue. At the back of the garden by the fire pit, the children can roast marshmallows and when it gets a bit colder, you can light a fire in several places in the garden. In short: a vacation home that is ideal for families and friends but also the ideal base for a workstation with a view!

Nature and surroundings

This nature house in the woods can be found in Havelte. A village north of Meppel in the province of Drenthe, the most forested province of the Netherlands and famous for its beautiful nature reserves. The area is especially known for its unique walking and cycling areas with heathland, forests and lakes. The National Park Dwingelderveld has almost 300 bird species, more than sixty fens and peat bogs and there are two herds of Drenthe Heath Sheep with a shepherd walking around. But also the dolmens are just around the corner. Havelte even has the third largest dolmen in the Netherlands. And in National Park De Weerribben you can go hiking and cycling. But the best way to discover this national park is by boat. Several canoe routes sail along the most beautiful spots. In short: forest and water around the corner! And finally, in Havelte you can also recreate athletically. For example, on the 18-hole golf course, in the outdoor pool, on the tennis court or one of the riding stables in the neighborhood.

    We had a great time and would love to come back! Nice atmosphere in the cottage and despite the rain we had a great time both inside and in nature. Minus point is that it was a little difficult reading on the couch at night with the big light, but that is nothing compared to the rest.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    What a cozy, complete and well cared for cottage! For the kids the toys (and games) were ideal and it was great that the beds were already made. Spacious garden around it with all the trimmings and from the quiet and spacious park you can walk into the woods. The Havelterberg nearby is beautiful and facilities are nearby. We enjoyed!

    What a wonderful place, we enjoyed it immensely! The cottage is furnished with love. Nice blankets everywhere for the cold days. Fire pits in the spacious garden which we thoroughly enjoyed. Also the trampoline was a great success.The cottage is in a beautiful place and has so many possibilities for beautiful bike rides and walking routes.Meppel is just 15 min drive and also a really nice place to visit. The hunebedden visit is a must, from Haveltje you walk there in a nice walk to. In short, we enjoyed it immensely and MUST return from the children and we really just agree.

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.
